Ditto here Shinobi
I like the way BG did those groupings... since I'm 30 I get lumped in with the 21 year olds instead of the 40 year olds. |

As the poll stands now I'm either the youngest or second youngest to vote as I am only 19.
Assuming that the results of the poll are a fair representation of the demographics of this site, its probably why I like it. I've read a couple of times where people have been asked to "think more carefully" at how they respond to posts whereas especialy on other sites you sometimes need to translate a post even though it is apparently written in English. |

Well, we will never know for sure. Most polls don't have much participation, this one is no exception. We have almost 11,000 members and so far on 18 votes.
I know that we have a 13 year as a member.

Of course thats true, but it just depends on how you class a member. You could easily argue that a lot of people become members for one problem and then disappear, which is of course both good and bad at the same time. Wheras a few such as yourself post regularly and could be said to be a net contributer to the site, or a regualr member.
Still I'm babbling, the joys of youth (and lack of exams ) perhaps ? |

The most disgusting thing (Almost) about getting old is my hair is now in a reverse growth cycle- its growing through my brain and is coming down my nose and out of my ears, yuk, is that disgusting or not. I go to the barber now and ask for "Just a trim please and an internal grope up the nose and in the ears with small scissors please" Gosh it sounds more than disgusting. I think one or all the Moderators will remove this as being a threat to young people cheers. Jim (The Nose) |

Glad to hear that you have a big old honker or snoz. You could have the the barber rip them out with tweezers and transplant them to the old headball.
I agree as we get old we have hair that growing places that never used to be there.
One of our "older" members/moderators (wont say who) has a full head of dark hair, unless this is a retouched photo that I have of him. But need to remember that "god" only created a few perfect heads, the rest of them he covered with hair.
Most of us came into this world pretty much bald, I except the fact that I will be leaving the same way.

Jim, you have a really understanding barber!

Remember the old saying? "Big nose, big ....". Or should that be feet? |

Hi Guy9663
We must not mock the afflicted, a large nose means a overhang of the top lip; when eating ice cream the nose pokes into the cone before the lips can make contact, and you must always buy bigger mansized tissues.
I remember a time on the Underground Piccadilly line when I sneezed and cleared a row of passengers things looked bad -I got off at the next platform,which was not the one wanted so you see the trials and tribulations of a large honker are not blessings cheers Jim. |

I think I may classify as the youngest member being just 18 Cruz, don't mock me with your no exams though, I'm in the thick of it right now which is why I haven't been around much lately. Still time for a break and nice to know the community side of things is still going strong, makes a break from computer woes.
Cheers, Dave. |

My wife tells me that bushy eyebrows and hairy ears (nose too probably) adds to the impression of age in men. She used to be a hairdresser and still cuts my hair. This now includes an eyebrow and ear trim. The 'nose' bit gets left to me ..but I can't blame her for that!  |
