How old are you?

I am seventeen years old.

Right there with you, Phil. [This message has been edited by TrueCreation, 09-18-2003]

I don't know. I don't trust radiocarbon dating.

I wasn't able to witness my birth, so clearly I have no evidence to suggest how old I am. I would trust my birth certificate, but everyone's watch could have been going many times too fast. I could go by the number of birthday parties that I've had, but for all I know, in the past my family might have held parties every day, or even multiple times per day, and made them look like birthday parties.In short, while the evidence says I'm 23, I'm going to have to go with me being 3 days 8 hours old.------------------

I'm bored and have insomnia, so I'll join in here. I'm 33, and I still get carded as well (even for cigs!).

Rei sez:
"In short, while the evidence says I'm 23, I'm going to have to go with me being 3 days 8 hours old."Gawd, that's funny!------------------

Oh Nooooooooooooo!!!My 40th birthday party tonight.Is it uncomfortable having the contents of your stomach pumped out?Brian

Congratulations Brian, welcome to the world of the juvenile mind in an age ravaged body. (just kidding....I think).As for your question, I would think that if you reach the point of needing your stomach pumped, you would be so far gone as to not feel much. Just swallow the charcoal like the nice men in white tell you to do. The rest should come naturally. ------------------

Yay! Happy birthday, man.

Happy Birthday, Brian! I kind of sort of remember forty....I think...

For he's a jolly good fellow,
For he's a jolly good fellow,
For he's a jolly good fellow,
Which nobody can deny.
Which nobody can deny.

For he's a jolly good fellow,

For he's a jolly good fellow,
Which nobody can deny.We won't go home until morning,

We won't go home until morning,
Till daylight doth appear.

We won't go home until morning,

Life has no meaning but itself.

Given that I am bored, I'll update this again.Only two changes, I have update both Brian's and my own age. I have also included the average and 'mean' at the bottom.

Excluding those that didn't give a numberical age and taking MrHambre's age as 37 the average age is slightly more than 31 and the 'mean' is 27 (15/15 split with 2 on 27).If anyone else has had or is having a birthday soon, let me know and I will update this.------------------
