Hey!! I resemble that!! :laugh:

I believe you're only as old as you feel (and your body has a say so in that too...).

I think it was around 8 years old that I realized I was way older than most of the other people around me.

I wouldn't define it by age. The other day my friend was saying that she was going to buy a new dress. I asked her why and she said it was for a formal dinner party with some friends. When that happens to me then I'll know I'm old. But I just can't imagine buying new clothes just to have dinner with my friends.

LOL, to me your friend sounds impossibly immature. To me, hopefully if you made it to old, you gathered a bit of wisdom along the way!

I have an older brother and 2 older sisters, so I always get to be the baby. :D

Agree .. 80 is old.

When I was in my teens and twenty's though, I thought people @ 40 + years were old. It's based on perspective though .. what age you are currently at in life.

I'm 41 here ;)

18 = getting old...this is when some kids start getting more responsibility)
21 = almost old...it has lots of ups, but you are now officially an adult (as far as the gov cares) and responsibilty goes up even more so
25 - officially old, prolly working a 9-5 job, planning to get married or find someone to settle down with
30 - down right old now matter what your conditions
40 - getting into geezer mode: the new generation now finds you boring and non entertaining
50 - geezer: there are now two generations that find you old and boring
60 - decrepit: you are prolly just now getting to stop the 9-5 job and dont have enough money to do all the cool things you could have done when you were younger
70 - its time to die
80 - if your non dead yet, you will be wishing you were
90 - you are the equivalent to Methuselah
100+ serriously...just die already


that said...i wish i was 17....it is the best age by far most privileges with the least amount of responsibilty
<- 20 and feels old
