    Did you have a party?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,532 ✭✭✭Lou.m


    I am 27.

    But I have been known to lie about my age.

    I say I am 21. It is a tradition in the family no woman is over 21.

    I may or may not have been slightly underestimating my age in that post.:o:pac:

    D'you know, I did in the end!

    First one ever. Didn't 'have one' so much as one 'happened to me'. Great craic altogether. Can't wait for the 80th!

    You remember that thread?

    Same here. I'm getting 'Golden Years' deals in hotels and am flattered that I have prove I'm that old.

    Incidentally, why the frown in the 'yup, even older' category OP? Apart from occasionally tripping over your scrotum and needing to install a stair lift and build a commode into your armchair, it's not all that bad. And some of us are still only on our first liver.

    There's going to be scrotum tripping?!?

    I'm older than I was a few seconds ago.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35,514 ✭✭✭✭efb

    No, was just wondering.

    There's hints being dropped about organising a 40th for me but I ain't too keen on the idea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,740 ✭✭✭chughes


    I'm 55 in a few weeks but in my head I'm still 29.

    That jump from 22 to 40 in a few days can be a real killer...

    28, but last I remember I was 26, and it seems like the birthday before that was my 22nd. It's scary.

    In my head I still feel like a teenager. But then seeing people in the 18-21 age bracket on nights out and stuff makes me feel ancient. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 383 ✭✭BUBBLES1978


    35 but still act like im in my 20's and still pull the young lads :D:D;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,080 ✭✭✭✭Maximus Alexander


    Loving the 66+ folks who have kept with the times. My parents are in their mid 50s and can barely figure out how to make calls on their new smartphones, definitely wouldn't catch them trying to tackle Boards.

    Still get asked for ID though, so yay to that!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,195 ✭✭✭✭jimgoose


    Chronologically, I'm forty-two. In reality, about nine. I have never acted my age and never will. I plan to still fall off the youngfella-a-few-doors-up's 50cc scooter while showing him how to wheelie at the age of 85. :D

    I know, I know. :P Since I left school time has flown. I was talking to someone recently about the leaving cert and I was saying yeah I did it there a year or 2 ago and then I realised oh no wait it's been 5 years ago!!! 5 years!!! :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,400 ✭✭✭Medusa22


    I'm 25 but have been dreading every birthday since I turned 18.

    18 since February...That's a pretty decent bell curve for the results. I don't think too many younger people frequent AH though. If it was the whole site being surveyed you'd probably get the most people in the 18-27 age bracket.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,493 ✭✭✭long range shooter


    27-40!!
    Thats a long midlife crisis,lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,028 ✭✭✭✭--LOS--


    I'm 26 but I still get IDd all the time, even when the law was recently 16 here for tobacco, wine and beer >.<


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,063 ✭✭✭Greenmachine


    Older than I was yesterday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,102 ✭✭✭RossFixxxed


    I'm in the bizarre 27-40 catch all in this poll. Like most people.

    Are you:

    0- 5
    5 - 10
    11 - 110?

    Eh?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    29. I really don't feel old enough to be turning 30 in June!

    Wait till you're like me and can say the LC was 22 years ago, the time did go by fast though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 680 ✭✭✭MS.ing

    Or 66+ (Anything up to 50 odd years?)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37 SirCreepalot


    A friend said to me just yesterday that I could be pass for anything between 22 and 40. The ridiculous 27- 40 bracket sounds like my friend. Is that you Courtney?

    The majority of the people are in the 27-40 bracket if the poll is to be believed. Numbers. Also, apparently anywhere over 40 is irrelevant.
