This is pretty much how I'm livin'. Girlfriend's all like "we're thirty now! we're so old!" and I'm like "whatever, still feel/look like I'm seventeen, still baller." If anything, I could stand to get a little older faster, but at least the last time I got carded at a deli the girl looked at my ID and apologized.
The only time I ever feel old is when I wikipedia some musician I'm a fan of and go "Oh, she's twenty three... ... WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE." Otherwise, feelin' spry. Ain't worried. I intend to be less worried at forty, and a brain in a jar hooked up to virtual reality at fifty.
Pretty much this for me as well. I think people panic a bit in their 30s but things don't really go down hill till the 50's..

I've been getting A LOT of biological-clock-ticking-baby-fever reminders over the last few years. It's so frustrating. I keep seeing all these girls I know having babies, and part of me feels that stupid societal pressure of feeling obligated to have a baby and I don't want that.
When I'm feeling my age, I like to go on IMDB and Wikipedia and look up all the actors, artist, and musicians, that I liked when I was growing up. Only to find out a lot of them are dead now or are looking very old now.
I'm only 21, but everyone seems to think I'm at least 25. Feels bad man.
I thought you were 21 when I was 21 I think.
Con kids make me feel old sometimes. The fact that there's kids who never watched first season Pokemon. The fact that 90's black fashion came back in full force and I remember it all. Even that bad clothes. Ew.
I'll be 32 this month. My life doesn't feel old, but my body sure does. Between skateboarding and martial arts, I've accumulated a lot of injuries over the years. I feel pretty creaky getting out of bed in the morning.

I've got a knee that still gives out from a hiking injury from 14 years ago, and an ankle that will occasionally roll of its own volition from a basketball injury from 15 years ago.
Wow, I am 27 but I don't consider myself old. I see my friends from school having kids, and questions myself "how can they be ready?" I am still way to young to settle down. I like babies but I don't feel a biological clock or anything of the matter. Then again, I don't go saying "look at the cute baby with their cute little hands and all that". I see a baby and most if not all the time I say that is healthy just to be polite. I just feel that there is still a bunch of awesome things that I can do right now before I settle down. Then again, I don't feel old because I don't look like your average 27 year old, and I am finally enjoying that fact :P

Hear you both, loud and clear.
I had a bike accident 10 years ago that's still messing with my IT band and holding me back in my running. The situation may have been complicated by too many ankle sprains in the 1980s, and a skiiing accident in 1981.
I am definitely creaky, and accumulating chronic conditions as time goes by. But I survived that awful asymmetrical haircut I got in 1985, and the orange polyester pants my mom bought me in the 1970s, so I figure I can survive anything.
I was over at the elementary school my mom works at last week, helping her with teachery stuff, and there were two kids talking about Pokemon in her class. Black&White is the second generation they've ever known. If I had told them that all Pokemon have sucked balls for four generations now, would they have believed me? That the anime has been shit for ~600 episodes?
I bought a bottle of rum legally for the first time a few weeks ago. Why do I already feel so old? I'm like two steps from the grave n' shit. ._.
Everyone always thought I was older than I am, I think because I've had crazy sideburns ever since I could manage it. I remember being asked where I went (as in, past tense) to university, when I was, like, 17. I'm nearly 21 and I sort of just feel like I'm catching up to how old people think I am.
Most students entering college this fall were born in 1986.
That's 4 years too late people. The majority should be 18-20. "Class of" is done by year of graduation. So the Class of 2008 graduates in 2008, but started in 2004. Thus, were born in 1986.
edit: Also, as a 16 year old, the only things that really make me feel old are floppy disks and Pokemon. The fact that I played vidya on floppy disks for years while most of my classmates didn't amazes me, and the fact that current-generation Pokemon is targeted at people who weren't born yet when it started makes me feel awful.
To revive a quote of my own, said in general to current 18 year olds, "I have save games older than you!".
I think the oldest game save I still have is 13ish years old. My Pokemon Red Version (complete with lvl 5 Mew). The cartridge is about 10 feet away from me. Do Gameboy cartridges burn out eventually? I'm too scared to look.

Yes, I know what "Class off [year]" means, I suggest you invest some skill points in Reading [English]. It clearly says "this fall" in the hypothetical booklet for the class of 2008 (which is made in 2008). Unless of course the retarded sub-society in the US is once more at work here, in which case all I can say is that you should stop being a bunch of idiots.

The hypothetical booklet for the class of 2008 was made in 2004. The last hypothetical booklet (why is it hypothetical? it's been made since 1998!) is for the class 2014 and was written in the fall of 2010.

See second point. Graduation book comes after graduation, stop being a bunch of idiots.

But they have one for the class of 2014, so they're clearly not making these after graduation. Also, chill the fuck out.

I was going to say "never have to blow a plastic catridge", but I knew where your mind would go anyway so I thought I'd just skip the middle man.
Also, loading programs onto their computers from cassette tapes.
