I'm 28

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

This'll be like a holiday when you pass 30.

Watched the incredibly-cheesy-in-retrospect Tim Burton Batman and ate a root beer float for berfday. Feeling a little less low about me mortality.

If this is a request to have your username changed, then can I draw your attention to one of the various rules that we all, ahem, adhere to on here:

"All requests of an administrative nature should be directed to the admins in the form of messages, and not posted as topics on the board."

Or whatever Biff wrote when he returned from his almost-3-decade Vegas bender.

Merry Xmas! ;)

I've been 27 for almost 3 months now. People still think I'm 20, though.

It might be the baby face, it might be the immaturity, or it might be the mountain of toys on my desk at work...

Happy Belated Barfday!

That makes as much sense as All Hail Megatron read backwards.

Have you tried reading AHM upside down yet?

Much better.

Congratulations Sprunkner. :)

Ah... the only one still with his youth intact on this board is Hot Shot... to be 16 again...

Being 16 again only works with the hindsight of a 28-year-old.

Which is a fancy way of saying I really should have laid that one chick.

Yep, I've been 28 for a few months, and it's not very exciting.

And if that doesn't make me feel old already, my girlfriend keeps bringing up the "M" word. And it's not mutants.


Anyway, yes: Sprunk and I are 28, gas is $4 a gallon, a black guy is running for president......it's the future, what can I say?

For each beer you give up, you get another wife.

Spliffs are worth two!

Hell, I'm owed a whole bunch of wives then. Though on second thoughts - just leave me the beers and weed...
