What! My mind is blown! Peds is only 15!!! And Vox you too! I figured with that latin quote you were some fuddy duddy 45 year old! You’re younger than my little sister! People in high school shouldn’t quote latin (or post in the pit)! Man… Wow. Peds… 15!!! A great Mafia player though! Jesus christ! I feel so old! \>\_\< PS: I’m born in 1985. I can already hear the 33 year olds telling me to stuff it. ---

Then you started that “posters I hate” thread, and I thought, Ah! So the old man still has fire in his belly! The passion and moxie of youth still has a hold of him! ~ I was born in 1974 and am telling RoOsh and Stealth Potato to stuff it. ---

Honourable mention to **Hot Buttered Toast** , who was 13 just a little while ago… which \*\*Giraffe \*\*discovered in rather [unfortunate circumstance](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=224544), much to his horror. 😃 ---
