> [@Giant\_Spongess](#): > > Hey, my birthday is the same day! I’m a couple years younger. 😃 Go us! We’ll be turning another year young soon. Wow, I didn’t even expect or need you to put ages, just if you’re all younger or older, but It’s interesting to see the ages for those of you who did share. 🙂 ---

> [@Strinka](#): > > Younger, 16. > > Just wondering, but is there a point to this? Not really. I just figured that 25ish was the average or middle of the typical ages of Dopers, (which seem to run from 14 to about 60ish) so I thought this would be a good way to get a feel for if Dopers were a fairly older or younger bunch. ---
