*gluggles Panpear* Most of us oldbies are well above the age of the average Gaian.

I act a lot older than a lot of Gaians, if that's any consolation.

I think I've always been older than most of gaians. But what can I say? Now that I'm out of school I feel more out of touch.
I guess talks of possibly buying houses can do that to a person.

I am more than double the age of the average Gaian, have a mortgage, car, wife, two kids, earning a college degree, and have a chronic back problem. You wanna talk old?!
Oh, and Yoder, you know that doesn't work, right? 4laugh
*goes over to the old fogey corner of the room with Panpear and takes a seat to comfort her*

Magnus, that just makes you hardcore. A good bunch of my friends happen to be adults I've met at cons who are in their 30s or so.

Oh Talon, you've always been an old fogey. I'm just joining you now.
*dodges Talon's wrath*
I can totally see myself going to cons in the future. When I get to be 30. I wonder if I will be creepy then? XD

Oh, doesn't it, Alexander? *continues the crazy glare* pirate
*wishes he could join the old fogey corner, because the teenage corner is frightening him*
I've been to my state's Con twice and have seen plenty of older individuals and families. There's nothing inherently creepy about them, but seeing a lone 50-year-old dressed like Bobobo is unsettling.

Yoder, I'm a teenager that's scared of the teen corner. I just want them to speak something other than moron. That's why I spend so much time floating to the ceiling.

eek ACTIVITY!!!!!
Eylios: At least I am now in the same category as I like my pron. ninja I've been around for a long time, long enough to know who I am, and what I want in the world. Kind of unsettling, and disappointing that it happened so late in life. Still, it is fun doing things with my kids that I enjoy. In fact, I got a few "like" tags in Facebook when I said that I enjoy playing Fallout 3 and other non-appropriate games with my 9yo sitting with me.
Panpear: Fair enough . . . no wrath for being honest! When I first got on the net, I was in a chat place and asked my age. They thought I was 60! I was only 18!!!! crying Not a big deal now. Evidently I sound just as old as I really am.
Snowman: You'd be surprised the things I might discern . . . You are welcome to visit me anytime in any corner, old friend. I'll shelter yah from the idjits.
Arctic: Teens are alright- it's the fads they get into that bug me.
-------------------------------------------------------
Never been to an anime con, but did go to Botcon once. Twas kinda disappointing, but would go again if the opportunity came along . . .

Speaking of inactivity, I suppose we could use a bit of an advertising spree.... Of course, it would help if Gaia DIDN'T EFF UP THE ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Poor Talon. XD
Usually I get pegged as younger than I am, which is a little disconcerting. I think it's my mannerisms when I type (and speak, when it comes to my WoW guild). But when they ask how old I am and I say '23' (or now more recently, '24' XD), there's this silence followed by 'Oh'. Sometimes they follow that with something to the effect of 'I thought you were younger', but sometimes they just leave it there, making me wonder 'did they think I was older or younger?'
But since most people peg me as younger... *shrug*
Not that that's a bad thing. I know I'll start to get disappointed when they peg me as OLDER than I am.

People think I'm older all the time. There's been, oh, six guys who I've met who've all thought I was 18 or so, even 20. I say I'm a junior and people think, "junior in college".
Neeeewp.
