Relax. Decades begin with the "one" year, not the "zero" year. So you are technically in your twenties until you are 31. If you don't believe me, take the coins out of your pocket and start counting. When you count the first coin, do you say "zero," or do you say "one?"

I was amazed at all the "new millenium" stupidity in 2000. The new millenium started in 2001. Of course, that's not conventient from a marketing perspective, so everyone got extra messed up on January 1, 2000. What was it that P.T. Barnum said?

Edit: Oh, yeah: I'm 47. You determine the age of a tree by analyzing the rings in the trunk. You determine the age of an audiophile by analyzing the ringing in his ears. Yeah, I'm definately 47.

Some of the 2000 stuff was Y2K with computers, which was a 2000 problem not 2001.

I have bad news for you: it accelerates as you get older. When my head hit the pillow last night, I was 25. When I woke up this morning, I was 47. Don't you just hate that?

 

[averydonovan]

24 here. And already some places don't ID me when ordering drinks

When I was a senior in HS, I worked in a middle school and a junior high. I used to get teachers asking me for a hall pass, or why I was in the hallway. I then proceeded to show them District ID badge, and they blushed and walked away.

 

[pgbass]

47 here, but I definitely do not look or feel it, except for the fact that everything hurts.

 

[rdmorris]

23 here and feel at least 22.5

 

[Robgo]

26. Kind of a depressing reminder when people younger than me can afford better gear than I have.

 

[sunseeker888]

I'll be twenty soon. But I am wise beyond my years, especially with audio.
