Author Topic: How old are you? (Read 25241 times)

michaewlewis · « **on:** July 05, 2007, 04:25:03 PM »

I was looking through some of the posts and one of the posters said something that made me wonder how old he was. Then I looked at his profile and it made me feel old and dumb because he's a lot younger than I am and had tons more posts than me!
I also noticed someone was -4321 years old....

I know that there is another topic for stats and stuff, but there's 30 pages to look through and most of the posts in there are probably from people who only posted once. I didn't want to look through that. Sorry.

So I'll go first, I'm 23.

You're joking right? Nine years old? I didn't learn the word "inconspicuous" until I was 18, much less have 300 posts on a computer help forum.

reaper_tbs · « **Reply #7 on:** July 06, 2007, 07:33:56 AM »

your intuition kicked in

no i'm not nine, but 15. turning 16 on the 1st of november.

but i did have close to 300 posts on a computer help forum (obviously not this one) when i was 9, and regularly used irc and other such chat programs from the age of 6.
i'm currently doing university work, but i'm legally obliged to stay in high school for now.
but you don't need my whole life story, i just figured that would clear any of your doubts.

According to my profile...I'm 49...however, I may change that...to say...25.

Ya know what would really be nice is if we knew the average age of the users here.

I'm going to take a stab at it and say....hmmm....23.

reaper_tbs · « **Reply #10 on:** July 06, 2007, 08:10:58 AM »

rght in the vital point there buddy.
you took the same stab i was going to, and i've concluded by adding the ages i can find on around 50 profiles that the average age is indeed 22 to 24
with the occasional old joker like Robert on here of course

things wouldn't be the same without him, or you for that matter.

Richenstony · « **Reply #11 on:** July 06, 2007, 08:37:29 AM »

Im glad some younger people on here are more intelligent than me , proves the youth of today aint as stupid as its said on the news lmao

Which rasies more questions about myself but i wont go down that line

Well,I can tell you Steve(Saviour) is extremely talented in his field.

I grow and sell landscape shrubbery. I am also, a trained automotive
mechanic. I was a Motor Sergeant when I left the army after almost
11 years.So,I ain't stupid but, I love the lighter side of things.

I joined the army at 17.I got married at 18. My daughter is 36. My son
is 26. I quit school at 15 years old. I have a 17 year old grand daughter
and 3 other grand children.

My son is working for ProLogic.He hasn't got married or had a family
yet.He has 2 Degrees- A BS in Computer Science and one in I T.
He begins his masters next month.

My daughter has a HS diploma and 4 children..So, God Bless her.

Any more Information needed just ask PeckerWood. He's a smart
old woodpecker.

Remember if Saviour gives you advice...He is a real smart guy and
my friend.

Robert

Edit: I forgot my loving wife...COL! She put up with all of this.
God Bless her for sure.

The one thing I like about 18 years old is along with
age comes responsibility.

That's Right! From now on it ain't Mama and Daddy's
responsibilty to do anything for you.

So,you better get ready. You are officially an adult.

So, now you can pay the bills and take care of your
own Bo-Stinker! COL!

reaper_tbs · « **Reply #27 on:** July 09, 2007, 04:48:45 AM »

heh... aren't you in that ''younger generation''?

.i am... and i think that's why i agree... except.. .there are some people that are articulate and know a fair bit about computers, but aren't too smart or mature all round, meaning, there's still lots of them that should grow up (despite their age) a bit before trying to take to sites like this, or things like MSN, which can potentially ruin friendships, as the things that are said are still coming from people...
i don't know why i felt i had to mention that, it just popped out..

Now I can't make any sense out of it.

reaper_tbs · « **Reply #33 on:** July 09, 2007, 08:13:29 AM »

the joke is, most of the time people say ''resent'', not resemble, resent meaning; they disapprove of something, resemble meaning; they look like, or share similarities with something, Eg; ''He resembles my grand-daughter!''.
thus, him saying he resembles the point made by the one before him, makes it seem as if he is supporting that point.

get it now?

Calum · « **Reply #34 on:** July 09, 2007, 08:34:59 AM »

It's a joke from a while ago.
I know the difference between resemble and resent.
In the quote, I resent the former and resemble the latter comment (no, I'm not comparing myself to a decrepit old man, I am agreeing).

Seriously now, I don't think there are any "decrepit old men" in here. If someone is truly decrepit, you're not likely to see them participating in Internet forums.

reaper_tbs · « **Reply #37 on:** July 09, 2007, 11:47:09 AM »

well how do you know that they're not biologically connected to their computers, and capable of controlling them through thought only?

Now, that would be sort of a superpower, quite the opposite of decrepit.

reaper_tbs · « **Reply #39 on:** July 09, 2007, 12:13:16 PM »

not necessarily, i know already of some people who can't use their arms but are being used as testers for a program which interacts with their brain via contact pads attached to the temples, allowing them to move the cursor with thought. it's still under development and takes these people a lot to get used to, but they can even use programs such as paint =) i think it's brilliant =D

I'd also just like to *suggest* that all users should be cautious when giving out personal information such as their age (even on a computer help forum), especially if they're under 18. Yes it's unlikely that Internet creepo's lurk computer help forums, however it's not impossible.
