He was 15 when we did the mafia guess the age game.

Bright fucker for 15 though. We were all shocked.

It used to be **Surrender Dorothy** but looks like maybe that’s changed.

We did a birthdays thread a while back, even made a [chart](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i84/NinetyWt/DoperYOB.jpg). **Asimovian** was the OP of the thread IIRC.

ETA: I swear none of these posts were here when I posted!

The minimum age to be allowed to register is 13, IIRC.

Guess I must have missed that thread. I’m 1988 as well.

I believe **Weirddave** or some such registered his kid, but I forget the details.

Airman Doors and I registered the sprog as [Bomb Bay Doors](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php) a month or so after he was born. He’s just six, so he’s still got seven years to go before he can legally post. Rest assured, though, that he is aware of the SDMB’s existence and frequently advises me on appropriate smileys. 🙂

Just make sure you change his occupation to something other than “sleeping, eating and pooping” before he starts posting!

How many couples are hooked up on this board? I am constantly surprised at their great taste.

**Boyo Jim** - if it makes you feel better you are younger than me. And **Chowder**.

I think the chart is wrong; I was born in 1940. On the other hand, I don’t remember posting in that thread.

I was born October 28, 1992, so that “beats” **Surrender Dorothy**.
