Bored at work.
Anyhow, there's apparantly a rule by which society permits you to go out with anyone who is at least half of your age, plus seven years.
Combine this with Wikipedia and you've got a fun new time-wasting game:
1) Take your age today (work out the months as a fraction as well if you are decent at maths - or just do it as roughly as you like), then half it, and add seven years to find your lower limit.
2) Work out when somebody that age would have been born (again, fiddle about with fractions if you want to be accurate).
3) Go to Wikipedia, and type in that year - this will bring up a page which includes a list of people born that year.
4) Find the relevant date and then find the youngest person of the opposite sex (or same sex if that's your thing) that qualifies and you have heard of.
Then do the same thing to find the oldest (you find their maximum allowable age by doubling your own age and subtracting 14).
Then list both of them here.
Note - if you are aged between 16 and 18, your younger partner will work out underage. In this hyopthetical situation, the celebrity will thus be your friend and nothing more.
Sorry.
For me - here's the youngest http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniela_Luj%C3%A1n (pass the tweezers dear!)
And here's the oldest - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilary_Swank

OK...
My age today, roughly, is 18 and a quarter...
So roughly, my lower limit would be 16 and a month/6 weeks, so born around the beginning of January 1991 (that was easily figured out because my mates 16th birthday was then!) but there's no one on there who I've heard of for then..., so I'll take a week off (Dec 1990).
And my older would be 22 and a half, so thats like, July 1984?
Younger (it's a "friend" technically, because she's 16, so I can get away with it being a girl, haha)
Older
Right, I'm going to stop mucking about now!
okay, so my age is roughly 14 and 2/3.
so, my youngest (altough my year isnt exact, its the closest date)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Younha
and my oldest...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanny_Barbie (year also slightly altered.)
interesting, when ya think of it.
i tihnk when you divide by two, and dd seven, it means divide your age by two, and add seven years to your birth year. if you do it in your manner, the numbers will barly change.
Surely to fuck if I understand this then everybody has to be able to? :nervous:
Ooh, I love her. Have no idea on how to work my own out though, thicko :razz:
:eek2:
I only did rough months but:
Youngest September 1989
Oldest April 1976
I'll allow yo to pick people from Wiki for those months.:p

Oldest, is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orlando_Bloom . Woo!
Though may have got the calculations wrong...
Rihanna. She'll do for me.

Don't think I'd complain if either of them agreed to go out with me.
