This age thing is rather peculiar. It's so relative. However, there has to be some kind of objective measurement to this.
I believe I am part of Generation X (born 1980), and I still feel so young despite turning 36 this year. Am I a grown up? Am I getting old? What do you say?
How old are you and how old is old?
The reason I'm thinking about this is because I had a revelation in the "Are you a console or PC gamer" thread. I was plastering old console and PC game videos from the Atari 2600 and Commodore 64, and it kind of just hit me: whoah, are we getting old? I mean those of us who were there for the major uprise of video games. Now, obviously I know the saying "You're only as old as you feel" or about age being merely a number, but considering me having two kids, with the oldest turning 9 in january, I'm starting to believe that I'm turning into my parents when I was a kid, and as we all know, parents are old. I don't know. I don't feel old, but perhaps I am getting old. No age crisis going on or anything, don't worry, I just got curious..
So, what do you think about age? How old are you? What characterises your age, and so on. Tell me about your age and opinions about it.
