How old are you?

Just curious

Old enough, what did you have in mind? <--- really a smilie with wiggling eyebrows would be more appropriate, but this will have to do.

Just old enough to be your son

Will turn 1 this Halloween.

Have a looksee in the Active Members list.

i am not sure if the active members list gives a fair representation cos many a member profile does not have the date of birth.

Showem - Is this what you had in mind? [img]http://www.keydeck.com/smilies/brows.gif[/img]

Oh, yes, exactly! I now have a favourite smilie. Thanks!

What's up with all the old people in the 27-35 range?

You're an oldie but a goodie...Showem. We all know that.

Naah..it just means that all the fun loving ppl are between 27-35

or all the ppl with nothing better to do are in that age range

Here we go again... all the really oldies have to climb out of the woodwork first. Come on now, we know you're out there

and how old is "really old"?

Anything older than 35..

You know you're "really old" when crawling out of the woodwork in the mornings starts getting harder. Believe me

Or you have to explain what "really old" is

In fact I didn't HAVE to, I was simply volunteering some useless information.

*cough* - this 35+er is a F-ING RIOT, and more than willing and able to kick your baby asses any day of the week!!!

sheesh.

edit: yes, that's right, f-ing coffee lady hasn't fixed the coffee machine in our office yet. Roar.

With 6,75% thats under 21, any intrest for a 21 and under night out???

oh wow this is sobering. i was beginning to thinking that TT had been overrun by a bunch of gen Y'ers. by the way most of TTers behave, i think people were lieing (sp?) in the poll!

your, headin' toward mid-30's and feelin' good (oh the sex is better past 30!), elfenstar.

p.s. BB, I'm with ya gal. Let's go kick some Gen Y ass!

Generation X is people born from 1965-1975. By the way, I didn't bother answering this as it always reminds me when doing something online (usually wasting time playing games) and someone "whispers" ASL at me, which I find mildly annoying.

Whats generation Y then ?

And who decides whats generation X, Y Q R etc anyhow ??
And what exactly are those Americans known as Baby Boomers ???

Baby Boomers are the generation born after WWII. Get it, the baby boom from returning soldiers? Their year span is greater than Gen X because of the slower rate of change in culture and technology. Gen Y? I don't know, it ain't my generation baby.

in my neck o' the woods, gen-x'ers were equivalent to the grungers, meaning their music identity coincided with them hitting puberty around the 90's music genre. we, those born in the ealry 70's, identify mostly with the music of the 80's, cause we "touched" puberty and lived most of our teen years there.

also have heard that gen-x generation can also extend to thoes being born in the early 80's

p.s. gen y, is the gen after x.

Since when are we Gen X? I thought that Gen X was younger (like 1975-1985).

Gen Y? Y bother more like.
Flirty thirties is much cooler.

what does it mean?
I googled it, but all I got was Appalachian School of Law and American Sign Language... I guess you didn't mean either of those, right?

Butterbean, I'm with you, btw. Some people just have no clue.

@Topsy Very glad you asked. Thought I was just too old to know.

p.s. Wikipedia lists gen x'ers born from 1961-1981! go figure. like i want to have anything to do with anyone born in 1981!

ASL?
Age? Sex? Location?
eg. 17, f, florida would be an answer. I had no idea what it was either when I was asked the first time.

No Gen X does definitly not extend to the early '80s (that would make me a gen X-er, which i'm not), I would say 1970-1979, IMHO.

whoa, normal distributon (almost); look at them fat tails.

Wonder what Gen thinks of all this.

Showem, and there I was thinking you meant they were whispering 'asshole' in a muttering kind of way...oops

Whenever I saw something on TV in the States aimed at Gen-Xers, it always seemed to me to be aimed at the second MTV generation (i.e. ten years later, not those of us who actually watched that first Buggles video).

Shall we split the difference and say anyone born before Star Wars is Gen X?

I still think it's those who were too young to have watched the first Star Wars.

I liked what Don Riina had to say about such people

Janet, the man who coined the term "Generation X", Douglas Copeland, was born in 1961. It refered to people of his age, so if anything, I'm too young to be a Generation X member, not too old.

I was a kid when Gen X-ers were in their twenties. And I was born post star wars. I think showem is right with her pre-star wars date.

Ok, fair enough. Then the American marketing people got it all wrong, because it always seemed to me that they were marketing stuff for "Gen X" that I was too old for. I guess Coupland gets the final word.

@Brummie Can't call it normal distribution coz the sample ranges ain't equal.
Jeeves is feeling pedantic today.

I am 42 and half years young and I know how to make a room full of total stranger's spit beer through their nose. Don't believe me? then come on out to The English Comedy Show on november the 7th and watch it happen.

and yes, sex gets much better as you grow older. look at all the geriatrics out there with walkers due to hip surgery after a fall in the shower. I've only fallen in the shower maybe 3 times in my life and each time I had company or was masturb...

Who's your grandmaw?

what's so special about generation X, i never hearded of such thing in Holland. And I don't wannebe part of any generation anyway, better judge people on their individual personality.

on second thougth i think it's not so much when you are born which gives you a certain 'generation' label. It's more the kind of culture you indendtify yourself with. So if you like '80s music, television and fashion your're part of that generation, alsho if you're born much earlier or even later. People go through different phases of their life at different ages.

maybe, but I sure am in the same phase as elf and TexT - boy howdy does the sex get better!

Ok, well I was born in 1984. Not yet 20 too young to be generation X, but don't know if I really feel a part of Gen Y...

Two things - (1) Sex definitely DOES get better as you get older and (2) WTF is this generation Y? Sheesh, at least come up with a unique name...

Ok so so far there are only 4 under 21, and an under 21 night sounds boring with only 4 people, so... we could do under 25

I know Gen X sounds sort of cool, but Gen Y is awful.

isn't there the Generation Golf in Germany? which age group is that? Gen X=Gen Golf?
