I came to a conclusion this morning...

<< < (7/7)

Deozaan:
I'm not that old (or so I keep insisting) and I've long since lost the love of turning another year older. I don't usually completely space my birthday but perhaps that's because, like your friend, someone will remind me. I'll tell you though, I've had a hard time keeping track of my age since I was 19.

That might be a symptom of thinking you're secretly immortal - or at least not truly believeing you aren't.

I'm not sure that's an accurate diagnosis of my situation. I was very aware of my mortality at 19. Just ask the doctors who treated me for suicidality/depression. It was not a good year for me and my memory hasn't been the same since.

Don't worry, it'll all come back to you when you turn 20...

Re the drinking underage,
there was a tradition where I lived, or was it where I drank :-\ - anyways, there was a tradition to go on the piss the night before your 18th birthday (legal drinking age). They were very lax about enforcement...

40hz:
So... I waited another year ... When they decided to repeat the same friggin stunt, again...and raised the drinking age to 21. Needless to say, I was pissed.-Stoic Joker (January 25, 2012, 07:45 PM)

So, you really hadn't waited at all  ;D

I've always had a tendency to bend the rules...till they snap. ;)

Funny...I have a tendency to try to follow them - until I snap.  ;D

Amazing the number of people in the technical & coding professions (or who are computer enthusiasts) who suffer from clinical levels of depression.

I wonder why that is.  :huh:
