Am I too old to be using TheSite at 25?

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
I joined when I was 17 - though have been actively using this place since I was 16 - and now I've done the whole uni shebang, etc. I feel somewhat old amongst all these flourishing young people. 25 is ancient in my books. What do you kind people think?

    I'm 39. God knows what you'd call that then...

    I'm 26. So I think it's fine.

    I do feel old around here now though.

    You're 39? Oh my god. I thought you were like 20 :blush:
    And no, 25 isn't too old. There's no age limit, I've just turned 13 :)

    I think you've just answered my question subconsciously, Broken-Angel. Coming back on here (for the first time in almost a year, may I add!) is like delving into ruins of my youth.

    I think the technical term is "old fart" :D

    I'm 25 as well, at least in body. However, I do have the mind of a 50-year old fascist cab driver.

    To be honest, the way I see it, da yoof on here can and do benefit from our collective experience of life and all its trials and tribulations, even if it does mean discussing plastic knockers for 750+ posts.

    I'm 25 with the mentality of a 14 year old. Them were the days!

    Put it this way - if this wasn't an internet forum and I was chatting to someone like Broken-Angel on a one-to-one basis, I could risk jail!

    Quite right!

    To be fair, I find it really weird that you're only five years older than my baby sister. I'm not even that old and I think you're a baby ;).

    Grrrrrr

    [rant start]
    Why is age such of an issue? Its only a number ffs. Sooo many times on chat we have the stupid age discussion and its just boring. I DON'T CARE HOW OLD PEOPLE ARE, it very rarely makes a difference to what someone is posting and doesn't make their opinion anymore valid / excuse their actions / anything else because they're older/younger (OK yeah sometimes its good to know to work out the law / what services are available but apart from that)
    [/rant over]

    Neil - noone here will say you're too old to be using TheSite. If you feel out of place then thats a shame, but there are a load of "older" members around and hopefully you won't feel that way once you get used to being back. :yes:

    I didn't know they were a regular occurance. I think this is symbolic of how much I've grown as a person since my first post, regarding the death of my beautiful dog, as a fragile 17 year old. TheSite is a link to my past. Whether it has a part in my future is to be seen..

    You're only two minutes old. I think a JLS forum or something would be more appropriate for you - just kidding!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Omg, not posting in your fucking threads again. Jesus.

    While some teens may dig JLS, I can assure you guys that B-Angel has ascended herself above those musical tastes :-) Read her sig, especially the line in red.
