All I ask of you is that you actually do this. I turned 37 last February, and I had planned on using this line at every available opportunity.
I’ve not done it once. 
I have done a few Dante Hicks-style "37?!?"’s though…
I’m 23 (not quite a teenager but hey) and I would say, “Dude, I saw them with Wang Chung!” and wouldn’t be lying. 
Don’t trust anyone over 30!
Says the person turning 30 in November. How did this happen???
RTFirefly:
I wouldn’t want it any other way.
Hal Briston:
Oh yes, I plan on using this line as often as possible, even on people who don’t get it. There are some things you have to do just for your own personal laugh. For me, this will be one of them.
You 37-year-olds aren’t old! My little brother is 39.
Last week, I was discussing with the news director at my station a story he was working on. I told him that the same subject was one of the first news stories I read on the first demo tape I made at a station in 1973. He said, astonished-like, “1973??? How old are you?” I replied, “46.” He said he had no idea I was that old. I guess it’s old if you consider I’m just under twice his age.
BTW, THAT is the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time.
Nope, it’ll happen before that. I got behind a bus full of high school kids on the freeway last week. Funny thing is, I remember looking pretty much grown-up by 15, and my friends did, too. But those high school students looked like little kids to me now. I’m 30, FTR.
I’m glad I’ve made someone happy today :).
Later this month I’ll be hurtling through the quarter-century barrier… when I was a teenager, that was OLD. Man.
Belated Happy Birthday, Dragwyr! (I don’t think anyone else has said that!)
I turned 38 on 3rd September. I am now officially in my late thirties…
I know I have probably been in my late thirties for over a year, but I have been clinging on to the argument that 37 is still mid-thirties. I know it wasn’t a great argument, but it was all that I had. Now even that has been taken from me!
I remember my mother once referred to my (then) 64 year old aunt as being middle-aged. I asked her how many 128 year old women she knew.
It doesn’t seem quite so funny now…
Thanks, Iguana Boy. I was wondering if anyone had gotten the implicit message. 
I say we start a petition to define “mid thirties” to be any age falling between 35 and 40.
Feel better now?
Welcome to the club!

I now resemble that remark.
Had an odd moment last year when I realized that the young man who was assisting me at the jewelry store was young enough to be my adult son. I just never thought of myself as old enough to be the parent of an adult before–rugrat or kneebiter yeah–but not adult.

“Middle Aged” is one of those non-literal terms…more like 60-70% of lifespan completed.
Strictly speaking, you’ve got “Median Aged”, that 50% of lifespan completed.
Lifespan Median Age “Middle-Age”
120 60 80-90
100 50 60-70
80 40 48-56
70 35 42-49
60 30 36-42
I turned 37 last November. My wife keeps telling I’m old. I tried this line on here, but she didn’t understand.
Just to let you know, mu wofe os 40.
You may not be old, but your typing skills have definately degraded.
Actually, the keys Y-U-I-O are immediately adjacent to each other, so Y/U, U/I and I/O miss-types are quite common.
Welcome to the precipice of your youth. Be careful looking over the edge.

Just pretend he popped a cookie in his mouth as he was dictating that post.
I have no problem looking over the edge, it’s that time when I’m forced to jump off that worries me. :eek:
Are you being repressed?
Come and see the violence inherent in the system!
