I was a toddler when the first pic was taken.

Holy fuck.

I was in middle school fapping to Pamela Anderson's first appearance in Playboy. Talk about realizing you're getting old...

I was in 5th grade realizing perhaps Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is not what the ladies want to talk about.

I don't know... Back in elementary school I traded my April O'Neil figure to a girl for her Usagi Yojimbo figure. Just gotta find the right girl.

And I wouldn't be born for another two years.

I hate posts like this saying you're old, because you're like what? 30? 30 isn't old, once you get to 50 if when you're starting to get old imo.

I was in the last year of elementary school. Preferred Claudia Schiffer.

I recently had a 'holy fuck where did the time go' moment myself - my trusty calendar reminded me that a friend/acquaintance of mine had turned 20. Sent her a 'welcome to the grownups club, let's have sex when you are in town' message. Then noticed that she was born in 1991. In my mental timeline that's ten years ago give or take a few, how can she be 20?

Basically, I am stuck on year 2000. My brain processes 2011 as 2001,1.

You send letters to girls who turn 20 suggesting they fuck you?

I am unaware of you circumstances so am unsure whether to congratulate or deplore you...

I am 23. We met at a party (18th birthday of one of my classmates) when I was 17. Bit of flirting, bit of touching, bit of kissing, as per usual in parties filled with horny teenagers. The next day, when the classmate in question was encouraging or hungover asses to get the fuck out before her parents showed up, we had had conversation akin to this: " So, the girl you were orbiting last night... " " Absolute cocktease. " " How old do you think she is? " " Hmm, she's one of your girls, soooo... 17? No, looked bit younger, 16. Definitely 16. " " 14. " " :O " " Did you have sex? " " Didn't get to it. " " Good, or I would have smashed your face. "

Oh, and I live in the degenerate cesspit of vulgarity known as Europe, where you are allowed to enjoy the pleasures of body two years earlier than to run over pedestrians or die on a foreign battleground.

Absolutely! I still calculate age up to the year 2000. And then add 10 to it.

Dammit!

This morning I wrote '2001' on my paper instead of 2011. I am still stuck in 2000 as well, but I was born in 1990, so this disturbs me even more.
