are you sharing, too, Scher? ;)
Only if you are ;)
i'll share how old i feel! :D
eek! there's no combined button for 14 going on 70 - honesty prevails. :p
Ancient? :D
as young as the mountains, as old as the flowers. :lol:
Hmmm, smell the flowers, breathe the fresh mountain air...
Eh, I have no embarrassment nor shame - 22 silly years I have thrived thus far. :p
So Scher, what's your number?
39?
Well, this is relative too.
We mean, one could take the year of some other planet, which's year equals to, say, 5 Earth's years.
Which means that one could say that his or her age is between 35 and 39 years, but which would actually mean like 175 to 195 Earth years.
We are sixteen, if anyone is interested.
Very true, Taliesin...:D
In Earth years...I'm fifteen.
Oops! I should probably vote in the poll! :rolleyes:
There's no shame in being young...I'm 16. "Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young". A paraphrase, I think it's from the Christian Bible.
There's nothing wrong with being both actually, be it young or old :)
*edit* Actually, Scher's something around 172 (Earth years ;)), Tal was close :lol:
can't I vote twice? one for my biological age (23), one for my mental age (87)?
I sort of feel like I'm becoming younger, meaning that I do sillier things than I used to when I was a teenager but feeling ancient...Now I'm over 20 and acting stupid. But I feel so old anyway.

I've never been that wise, but you often seem to be an older version of me (older as in me some years ago). When I was 16 I suddenly started feeling like 80, so now I count my age starting from there...
How do you find out your mental age? Comparing to the people who already reach that age and said "Oh m...I am suppose to be that old to think like I think now?"
Hey, you had promised not to tell!Quote:

Not really...maybe partly... It's about how you feel...You know, all those people that are, say, 40 and feel like 20...well, this is just the opposite case. You see other people - younger, or your age, or slightly older - and feel immensely older, but older in a bad way, not the wise/mature way... older like your life is almost over and you didnt have time to be like them and won't have time anymore.Quote:

No one has to state their age, it's either vote in the poll, or vote in the poll and tell exactly what your age is, or do neither of mentioned.
Oh and Scher... I was hoping you wouldn't notice that little... slip of tongue :p ... but I couldn't have Tal spreading rumours, now could I? :D
I know but at least I have 'answered' the poll :pQuote:

Eh... when you are 172, hip replacement becomes a necessity... It is not exactly plasctic surgery, y'know.
I thought you were 172 in Jan ;)
16, representin. Have I posted in here before?
It is a mistake to live one's life according to some arbitrary dictum of a calender. Age is something to keep track of only because others seek of it of you. It bears little on the reality of one's impact on the world, or the world's impact on you, other than when we are a young child. Cumulative knowledge can sometimes be used to judge a person's age, but even this method not always accurate (I've met very young people with very old eyes) nor beneficial in any meaningful way. I am at a loss as to why people feel strange revealing their age, whether it be young or old..........but I assume it is conditioned response. It is much better to be 'yourself' with abandon.....there is nothing to fear..........

I think we should punish those people who invented "time" as the ones who divided time to years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds. Before this time measure was "invented", people never worried about when is the right time to use anti wrinkle cream..
Baddad, I wish the world outthere is as beautiful as those words.."sigh..."Quote:

I need the exact answer, then I'll answer your poll...Quote:

Well, Sub, seeing as polls could have a limited number of options (I thought it was 10, seems possible to create a 12-choice one as well), creating a poll ranging from 13 to let's say 70... I doubt it's possible... and really, that's a bit childish and uncalled for. I think it's the most accurate age poll we've had as far.
I usually describe my age as "barely legal"
for what??? :pQuote:
