    Given my heart-related hospital stays (I had two last month...), I sometimes feel older than I am. But I shouldn't be that way. God has blessed me immensely, it's just that I get to feeling sorry for myself sometimes. Listening to Merlin and the other...older gentlemen in this forum, I feel much better. Thanks, guys! ;) :lol:

    haha, im 18, for I shall skateboard on sidewalks and light bags of dog poop on fire and put them on your doorstep. :lol: :D

    18 is sweet.I live with my parents where everything is provided, I can buy beer in some places, fireworks, and porn, and lose little of my work money towards taxes.Plus, I can run and jump and skip without my misses nagging me about what the doctor said, lol ;)

    one of us... one of us...







    Actually, wait! I'm not one of you!

    I consider 20 to be young enough to eat solid food, but old enough to tell kids to get off the lawn :kill:

    One does hope it's nothing like the world portrayed in the novel of that name, merlin. That wouldn't be good.

    Merlin speaking as an ignorant youngster who has tried to enlighten himself, (never read Brave New World, have been meaning too but haven't gotten around to it yet).
    I must say, us younsters are screwed.

    Already tried it my friend, remember I'm a teenager so I'm always right and I know everything ;)
    Sadly the blaming failed.
