Forum:How old are you
Sometimes I wonder if I'm one of the oldest people here. Thus the following poll. Sorry if this has been done before. --So So 03:54, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
I'm 3. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 03:57, 05 Jul 2008
- 3 what? /rimshot • <4:19, 05 Jul 2008>
We still love you, So So, even if we don't visit you in your old folks home as often as we promised. --Pleb SYNDROME CUN medicate (butt poop!!!!) 04:36, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Pah! Where's my age? Did you run out of them new-fangled metric numbers? Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 09:50, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
Hm... Assuming the majority of people answered honestly (thanks, Spang!) I may not be one of the senior members after all. (I clicked #7) --So So 04:08, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- So you're the other #7. --Hyperbole 07:54, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- Pah, you kids these days... --UU - natter 08:26, Jul 6
- "#7"? Why can't you just say your age? I'm 22, which I find is old enough for me to have to think about how old I am. Does anyone else forget, or is it just me? -- 15Mickey20 (talk to Mickey) 12:26, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- "#7??"....you're only a baby.... -- Sir Mhaille (talk to me)
- I'm 132 in Uncyclopedian years. That's eight years old in real terms... -- Hindleyite Converse • ?pedia 15:29, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- my mumy dosnt let me yoos numbers over 7... which is quite strange because I'm 96. Also, damn kids, get off my wit! -- 15:42, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

- I feel old. There are people here who didn't even witness the Challenger disaster live or listen to an LP with some Rollers from Bay City (who neither rolled or were from Michigan) who informed us about it being Saturday night. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 17:47, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
"11 damn dude, over 40?" FU!!! How about Over 65 and still have the sex drive of a 17-year-old, and the good looks of Marty Feldman as well? Ha! Why isn't that choice on your smarmy little list, eh? Only two more months to retirement, then I will no longer have to garble coneys for a bare living wage. You whimperslappers can just eat my agéd shorts! ----OEJ 21:14, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- Just think that most of the users here cannot remember a time when they had to do stuff without a Home computer, iPod, Cell Phone, Game Console, air conditioning, Microwave, or even a calculator, and none of those existed 35 years ago or if they did they were really expensive. In fact they don't know that people used to walk to places they wanted to go short distances to (To save gas and money), instead of riding a car there, and instead of Facebook or MySpace people used to hang out on front porches and parks to talk with their friends. Yet somehow they seem to think that older people had it better and easier than they have it now when the older people were the same age. --Lt. Sir Orion Blastar (talk) 05:31, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- It made me think what would human beings do if all of our technology suddenly doesn't work any more or we have an energy crisis and cannot get electricity or oil or other fossil fuels. How many of us know how to do this stuff in our heads, or even be able to think without using technology? When I was a programmer, the philosophy was to write a program that is so easy to use that the user doesn't have to think about it to use it. Is that really a good thing to have in which people don't think before they do something. Could that be the true cause of the problems we are having as a result of not thinking about the consequences before we do something? Do we know how to do things Old School? Do the Amish and other people who shun technology have some sort of point? --Lt. Sir Orion Blastar (talk) 06:11, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Most of us can't remember a time when we had to do stuff without an iPod? We're a young group, but it would probably not be accurate to say that most of us are under 12. --Hyperbole 19:00, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- That isn't what I said, I included a list of things going back to 35 years ago, some things are newer like an iPod, some are older like a calculator. Chances are someone is old enough to remember when iPods got created, but not when game consoles or calculators got created. When I was young, instead of iPods we had portable CD Players, before that the Sony Walkman, before that Ghetto Blasters, before that (before I was born) Transistor radios that got AM or FM. --Lt. Sir Orion Blastar (talk) 03:42, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
Wow, listening to you old cranks I feel so young, young like a little girl. Young like a little girl with daffodils in her hair and Bit-O-Honeys in her pocket, getting felt up on a subway train in Japan. --So So 00:52, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

If I am older than Leddy but younger than a baby, what am I?
Well? --MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 20:04, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- A riddle? The Woodburninator (woodtalk) (woodstalk) 20:19, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- ... Fuck! How did you know!?!?! --MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 20:27, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- I read your diary. By the way, you may want to look into going to a psychologist...Yeah, I mean, I don't want to emberrass you or anything, but having those kinds of feelings for Aardvarks probably isn't healthy. The Woodburninator (woodtalk) (woodstalk) 20:41, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

- You would be a time-traveller like me. I am older than Leddy, and I was born in the future giving me a net-sum negative age which would be younger than a baby. All you have to do people, is just think fourth dimensionally. After all, Einstein said that time was the fourth dimension and space was the fifth dimension. I got taught general relativity in Kindergarten, like the rest of us from the future had taught to us via cerebral implants that the government installed in us after we were born so we can absorb knowledge really really fast. Not the same government you have now, no it will soon fall and another shall take its place, and repeated until the Solimani Empire rises, but in 2300 when you discover jump drive you will in 2387 meet the Vilani Imperium in the Spinward Marches (which look like you humans but are more technologically advanced) which you will try to conquer (as is your nature when you meet new humans), but it will backfire and they will conquer you and take over Sol and Terra (The Sun and Earth) and push you far back into coreward in the Milky Way Galaxy interstellar colonies. Ah but enough of that, as far as you know, it hasn't happened yet. But don't say I didn't warn you it would happen, but since I travelled back in time to stop it, it might not happen after all if I warned you about it and someone takes me seriously enough to change human history. :) --Lt.

- Orion, time traveller was what I had been thinking of. But a riddle or a bitch were the best answers. Dammit! I gave away the last answer... FUCK!!! --MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 06:07, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- Well when the alien nicknamed "grandfather" had modified life on Earth to fit the design of what a human looks like there were some design flaws. The Vilani, Darrians, and Zhodani didn't get that design flaw, you Solimanis did, which gives away the last answer to riddles like that. But then the Vargr and Aslan races were based on wolves and lions, in that order, but look humanoid (sophonts I think they are called now for life forms that are intelligent), and humans on Earth are a much more primitive sophonts than the rest of us. But I assume they will catch up quick unless they kill themselves off. :) --Lt. Sir Orion Blastar (talk) 16:00, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
