T'was a joke, I was implying that "youngling" is a relative term. I hate my own generation's music, can I call all of them younglings?
Now that emo has passed us by, there's really not any new music they can come out with that I'll hate more. I actually don't mind dubstep, especially in comparison.
22 here, can't say those poll results surprised me. It's nice to actually see them though! Make it stop, MAKE IT STOP!
Daynab.......thanks. That was the best new music I've heard since Bubba Sparxxx was spinning tracks. Totally badass. (Didn't I just get done saying the Internet needs a sarcasm font?)
Well according to the poll I'm the only 51+ player on it. I make no worries about my age. I just like to think that I'm 18 with 33 years of experience. Although a goodly part of me (inside) is still 12 years old. For those who don't bother with the math I'm 51. (chuckle)
Turned 40 this year. Funny thing age...I remember playing Ultima 3/Might and Magic/Bard's Tale and Phantasie like it was just a few years ago...still a gamer. Unlike many of my parent's generation I think my generation (X) is the first generation to not have an issue with openly professing our hobbies. Many of our parent's played wargames in dark basements like a secret society. Now I openly say "Im a gamer...you know video games"...Of course some still judge but screw em...the mouse/keyboard/controller will stay in my hands till they bury me. I have seen a lot of change but always there is the game...may it always be so
For Pete's sake, am I ever relieved to know there could potentially be multiple people older than myself here. Some days I read these new-fangled "thread" thingamajingies by those young whipper-snappers and feel positively dusty. Now I know there's two to five older and fartier than myself. Ain't felt this youthful since that time I lit those lanterns for that silver-smith out of Boston. Tarnation, that might not be entirely a truth, if'n I reckon correctly. I did celebrate a might heartily the night The Noble Experiment was repudiated, comes to think of it. 'course, I could be imagining this whole thread. They say the mind is the first thing to... what was I talkin' abouts?
Man, I feel old now. 30 years old here. Somehow I managed to become a tax paying married adult after diddling about in school for a bit.
26 here. I'm of the belief that you never really become an adult. You just become a wiser, taller, hairy-er(or, in my case, less hairy), and just a bit jaded child. Adults are a myth. A fairy tale told to young children by older children to get them to behave.
Yeah, there's some truth in that. And it makes me a little sad that after a long while of thinking I couldn't remember any time I perceived myself as a child in the last "many" years. Oh well, long life the cynicism and weariness.
