Title: How Old is Everybody Here?
Post by: Ash on December 14, 2002, 12:08:04 PM
You don't have to answer this question if you don't want to.

Obviously, there are a lot of regulars here on this phorum.

How old are you?

I ask this just out of plain curiosity.  
I'm sure others here have wondered this as well.

Just like it's nice to have a face to go with the prose, (profile pics) it'd be equally nice to know your age.  
After all, when you meet someone for the first time, you see them,  hear them speak and then you wonder how old they are.  
Isn't their age one of the foremost questions that pops into your mind?

Some people write like they're 45 and are actually 17 while others write like they're 17 and are actually 45!

I've never understood why some people are unwilling to reveal their age.  
To me, that's just an issue of a lack of self confidence.  
They think people will think less of them for some reason if they reveal that they're in fact much older.  (my opinion, of course!)

The confident person doesn't care and tells all.  
To me, my age is just a number.
Yes, I understand that I am a young adult and as I age, I'll be less inclined to tell.
Bull!
To me, life is an exciting adventure where my age doesn't matter.  
If I was 65 I'd still tell you.

I'm 28.

How old are you?

18. And it amuses me to no end to point out to my friends that, legally, I'm now the responsible adult of the group. :)

I'm 38.

I know I should proof read before posting. Oh well. My writing isn't that good anyway. This is one of five of my favorite sites on the internet, and I have discovered many fine fine movies through this website. I also like this message board more than any other. This page inspires me to see every movie on the planet. Its a place to log my little list of films.

My other favorite sites to visit are:

Drum Corps International - The Worlds Best Drum Corps
Drudge Report - New Articles from around the world
Watcher Website - Conspiracy/Prophecy
The Torch - Wrestling News

As Cary Grant is reportedly to have said: "Everybody fine. How you?" No. I saw the original "The Fly" in 1958, when I was six years old and didn't know better. Do the math and enjoy the exercise.

I just turned 31 last month.

I'm also getting married in exactly two weeks.


Title: Re: How Old is Everybody Here?
Post by: Evan3 on December 14, 2002, 04:44:40 PM
19- an awkward age, considering I have the mind of a 10 year old (or so I am told)

         I'm at the age crossroads,at a mere 38.
               I still have the smarts and energy of a 16-year-old,though.

I am the same age as the person who saw The Fly. Nice mix of ages.

I guess I should figure out how to register, since I'm finding I like this site and phorum very much.

(even though I am VERY involved with my own boards, it is kind of nice to see one where every other post doesn't have "*ss-***ing ***er" or "**ty** fl**** ******!" in it. *)

*-And the other people's posts are even worse!

My birth certificate says I'm 35, my mind tells me I'm about 18 and my various little medical problems want me to believe I'm about 45.

I am 20, and I'm damned if I can figure out how putting pictures of yourself on a profile works, but there are pictures of me on the Brotherhood of Bad Movies site.  But then you've all been there and are regular readers and big fans, aren't you?  Huh?  HUH?   No?  That's what I thought.

You either have to upload your pic from your own URL or you have to e-mail it to Andrew so he can put it up for you.

I chose option 2.

If you end up choosing the same option I did, don't expect your pic up right away.

As you know, Andrew is a very busy guy and it may take him a few days to put it up.  
It actually took him about 2 weeks before he was able to post my most recent pic on my profile.

It's been a while since I've been around, so it figures that this would be the place where I'd post.

I'm 55.  What's it to yah?

My turn. I'm 25 and I've been in the B-Movie world for a couple of years, though I've been watching them all my life. My ortography sometimes sucks because I refuse to carry my English dictionary to college, it's too damn heavy, and I don't have Internet at home.

I swear I'm not trying to be a mutt here, but I love this quote. A reporter wired Cary Grant's publicist to solicit information for an article. The wire read "How old Cary Grant". Mr Grant supposedly replied "old Cary Grant fine, how you?". Why does that ammuse me so much? Why can't I spell amuse? Who knows? I'm 27...and a half.

Post by: Susan on December 16, 2002, 10:03:01 PM
28, hopefully I look younger in my picture. Actually now that I'm thinking about it, I've decided to stay this age for a few years yet.

I haven't posted here in a couple of months due to a job change. ;-) Nobody knows me no more!
btw...
Age is mind over matter.
If you don't mind, then it doesn't matter

Actually I was kinda wondering where you were.  I was sorta expecting you to chime in when all the men-folk were complaining about the George Clooney butt shot in Solaris :)

I'm 38 too, nice to know I'm not the oldest around here (though some mornings it feels like it.)


Title: Re: How Old is Everybody Here?
Post by: BoyScoutKevin on December 17, 2002, 06:32:01 PM
Nice thread. A few statistics. 31% of us are teenagers. 28% of us are in our 20s% 25% of us are in our 30s. And 16% of us are 40 or over. (I won't say how much over.) With the average age being 29. I was going to say Trollificus and I were ithe oldsters in the group, but GeeWhiz has both beat by 3 years. Luke Bannon at 16 is the baby in the group. One other interesting statistic, if our names are any indication of our sexes, we are predominantly male, even overwhelmingly so.Of course, the next person who responds to his thread, is going to shoot these statistics to hell.
And congratulations to you AndyC on your upcoming nuptials. You might ask the  Andrew on this board, if he has any tips for you. As his Katie and he, seem to have the perfect marriage. Enjoy!

Thanks Kevin. I think I've got a pretty special lady. Most of the regulars on this board should approve, since she is the same person who named eight rescue puppies after Japanese monsters and later travelled to Chicago with me, to sit through 17 hours of B-Fest. She's also the only minister I know to use The Crawling Eye as an illustration in a sermon.

Let's see, according to my friends I have the intelligence of a 5 year old, the maturity of an 8 year old, the curiosity of a toddler, and the emotional baggage of 30 men.  They usually just call me their big dumb pet Pancho, and I'm really 16.

I'm 22, but I'm really still a kid.  Still clinging tightly to those carefree days of childhood.  Lord knows that when they're gone, they aren't coming back.  : )

>28, hopefully I look younger in my picture.

I just looked at your profile on this site and I'd say you look about 50 in your picture. :)

>I haven't posted here in a couple of months due to a job change. ;-)

 I was wondering where you went.

>>Actually I was kinda wondering where you were. I was sorta expecting you to chime in when all the men-folk were complaining about the George Clooney butt shot in Solaris<<

Damn! I didn't get to lodge my complaint?
Actually my complaint would be more along the lines of "I can't believe people actually paid to see that movie"

>>I just looked at your profile on this site and I'd say you look about 50 in your picture<<

Wow, that young eh? ;-)
I was wondering if I should change that pic already

I have noticed an abundance of 80's generation in here but I enjoy the diversity of age, it spices things up.
