Teenage Dopers

It’s bedtime, buddy.

WOW! I am so blown away at how many teenagers are here!
Its nice to know that its not just adults here! And in a sence I have some people to relate too.

Oh,
age:16, and on July 3rd 17.
name: Tyler!

ciao y’all. :smiley:

How old IS the SDMB?
[/hijack]

Earliest registeration dates for the SDMB as we know it are from March of 1999, I believe. Before that were the AOL boards, some of which are chronicled in earlier SD books.

Ah. I always thought that it was like, decades old… around since the internet started. Oh well. Silly me.

I’m 18, won’t be 19 till December. I hope I’ve managed not to make too big a fool of myself. :slight_smile:

.:Nichol:.

Drat. Forgot to mention my name is Jessica (like every other female born in the '80s) and I just finished my first year of college last month. Yes, I started when I was 17. I was a widdle liddle baby. :smiley:

Been hanging out here a couple of years now, even before I was legal! Hee!

Hey, I’l be 17 when I go to college.

sigh… so much for parties…

And how many of us teenage dopers are also aspiring writers? I know I am, and I suspect that there are quite a few others.

I am… or I liek to think I am, anyways.

Wow, this thread is making me feel old.

And why aren’t any of the teenagers I know as cool as everyone on here?? :rolleyes:

Because of the writtest test you have to pass to get accepted here:

“Don’t be a jerk. Don’t spam.”

Also, one look at any of the forums shows any newbie that “lol koolz i’ll b der 2nite!!!11” would not go over too well. So it’s a choice between thinking through a post and … Iunno, doing something else.

[sub]Me? Not think through a post? NEVER![/sub]

It’s pretty cool to me that people thnk of me as older than I am, as people often mistake me on the phone for my father or an older man, from my voice and from my words.

People think I’m my mom when I answer the phone.

I’m 16 and she is 52.

It’s a little strange.

I’ll be 18 and a half exactly in 9 days. I just finished my second semester of college (University of Maryland College Park–Go Terps!), and I’m taking a summer class and trying (unsuccessfully) to find some work. I started posting (lessee) when I was 16.

I’m not surprised at most of these people being teens. Only Mirror Image egamI rorriM and Angel of the Lord. Blalron would probably surprise me if it weren’t for the Great Prom Saga[sup]TM[/sup].

Not an aspiring writer, but I am an aspiring engineer.

Guess that’s it.

Of course, running through threads naked is a perfectly rational, well-thought-out thing to do. :smiley:

Well if it weren’t, I wouldn’t have done it nearly as much as I have!

OK, fine, I’ll join the thread…:slight_smile:
