So have I, but there’s a lot of broken bits inside.

noice…

I’m Harry Styles + Lourdes Maria Ciccone Leon days old…

Monogamy and declining (at least simulated/imitational) reproductive opportunity/activities makes the hands on the clock spin so fast it generates a strong wind.

Applies no less to the DNA extraction apparatus than the insertion apparatus.

a mate asked me to help him do some things around his home. i said no worries i have time on my hands. he replied it’s on your face too.

It’s all those birthdays.

Don’t worry, when the pension age is raised to 70 everyone will be granted a 5 year bonus on their current lifespan.

There’s considerable relief in seeing offspring to reproductive age, but en route deviations are likely.

my real birthday is 5 weeks away. august the 1st. not long to go. 38 days.

Well, just in case it’s forgotten in 38 days time, Happy Birthday to you and all the equines. Mine is a month after yours. First day of Spring.

How does that site know my exact pulse and breathing rate? Creepy.

it must be that a certain percentage of the population die before hitting 70

that difference allows the government to balance the books

my grandfather, father and stepfather died at 74, 64,74 respectively

if they lived in Australia the government would have only paid 8 years pension total under the new guidelines

I would not be surprised if the government forced everyone to take up life insurance as well as superannuation for those times when people get sick or injured

heh

“March 24th, 1999:
NATO launches air strikes against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia
Over half your life ago!”

It reminds me of the little print outs you’d get at as a kid at Lone Star restaurants when it was your birthday.

That’s interesting. Out of 100,000 people born on the day I was, only about 3500 have carked it.

I felt old the other night when I realised that the first girl in my year to get pregnant was 14, which means her kid is 20 now. From some facebook stalking, I know she’s a grandmother now… so she probably feels older than I do :)

Mine was 64,000 odd.

10,350 this end.

>so she probably feels older than I do :)

doubt it works that way, if it did it’d be maybe from the wearing cultural impositions.

On the upside I have far fewer wrinkles than a lot of people I went to school with… Then again they all have kids :p

“Over 88% of visitors to this site are younger than you!”

Do you think you’ll be going in for another one after this one pops out?

I think I’ll start with just this one.

I know I’m getting old when I try jumping fences.

I have no idea who Elisabeth Olsen or Bella Thorne is. Apparently, I’m older than them.

What made me feel old today was my two work experience students who were 1 year old when I moved here in 2000 which is only a couple of months ago in my mind.

The bit that made me feel young was that they didn’t know any of the contemporary bands on my current play list :)

I feel young. I checked Granny’s eyes today. She is 105. And she came out in today’s horrible weather. OK, she came in the wheelchair taxi, but only because she can’t walk great distances any more….

Are you sure that they really are contemporary ;)

+1 … and doing Kung Fu. Stuff that looks easy (and which I could have done easily in my teens) just doesn’t come together. It also hurts the next day.

You are getting old when you start making summer pudding in the middle of winter.

i’m a pom, haven’t adjusted to the upside down seasons yet.

Just paid for my ticket for The beards. If your dad doesn’t have a beard, you’ve got two mums. ;)

I knew I was getting old anyway, because I no longer keep up with popular culture. According to that website I am as old as the combined ages of two people I’ve never heard of who starred in films I’ve never seen. It’s just confirmation of what I already knew, nothing startling.

Now that’s living.

Yep, I realised it when all of a sudden ABC local was my radio station of preference.

So, are you like, going to that ironically or what?

I’m pointing out that by some nifty foot work you can save billions of dollars

it may be true that people are living longer but if medical treatment is harder to access and taxes are higher volatility increases, greater deaths

my father didn’t make it to retirement thank god – being in Britain and on the aged pension would have been seriously challenging.
