This was brought on by a topic in the thread. I feel old because so many PdN users are so young. So,....how old are you?

EDIT: please note that I didn't include graduations over 50 because I didn't figure anyone would want to admit to it ;-) Also, if the clarification afterward doesn't specifically apply to you, don't worry. This is just an age poll.

EDIT2: "For users under 13 years of age, it is suggested that you not mention your actual age in any posts. Participating in the poll is fine because it is anonymous." (Thanks, BarkBark. I forgot.)

 

The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.
Amy: But how did it end up in there?
The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.
River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him.

23 as of last Friday. :)

And yes, there was a time when I did not know what a cell phone was. In fact, to this day, I have never had a cell phone. I did a research paper for an Environmental Issues class just this last quarter about the effects of cell phone radiation. Interesting stuff... <_<

I'm 22 (23 in Nov.). I have had a total of 5 cell phones. My wife and I are currently on a family plan with 2 phones. We'll probably be adding another phone in January due to the addition of Brad Jr.(?) to the family. I wonder if he'll want the "Text 'n' Pix" option?

I remeber a time when mobile phones (as we brits call them) weren't seen out & about. I only got a mobile last September just after I started college.

Son, someday you will make a girl happy for a short period of time. Then she'll leave you & be with men that are ten times

better than you can imagine. These men are called musicians. :D

Though I'm a couple years short, I remember when music was played on MTV, too... And for the majority of my life I was cell phone-less. (Alas, no longer.)

I'm 22. Like barkbark, I will also be turning 23 in November.

(It's weird how I now actually have to do math to remember how old I am. Like, I have to think for a second, am I 22 or 23? I never had that problem when I was 17, 18, etc. I guess birthdays are becoming more and more meaningless now...)

Based on my own poll, I'm 40. But I'm actually 22. :-) that stuff is just on there for fun.

I have been to a bar or two. But I have no interest in being drunk, and I don't particularly enjoy many alcoholic drinks.

I like mine fruity. And have better things to spend my money on... And I can't hold my hard alcohol anymore. When I was 17 I drank anybody under the table. Then I ended up with Mono and it attacked my liver and since then... its just not even worth trying. Life is crazy enough if you look at it from the right angle, I don't need being drunk to entertain me.
