I get ID'd sometimes, if it's somone who looks younger than me I ask for their ID too to see if they are old enough to serve me, other than that I'm currently feeling quite down because in a few days time I won't be able to call myself a teenager anymore Having said that I probably won't be too fussed on my birthday seeing as it's freshers pub crawl

I'm ripe age of 22.

Still young. Aaaaaahhhh yeeeeaaahhhhhh.

Although - anyone who has seen or met me, would guess (as most people do) 27-30...

I had a hard paper round, lol!

Awww, I'm the other way round. I'm 30 and I usually get guessed at about 23. But I am a shortarse.

Whereas I cling on like a limpet to youthful, 14 year old girls whilst having sex with them.

See, I dress in the schoolgirl uniform that used to belong to my first kill. Then I put a lime up my obvious and do the neccesary. The combination of cross dressing in a murdered girl's clothing, and a lime heighten the excitement.
Sometimes when I really want a thrill, I do this in the town square, at lunchtime.

Is 30 old now? The behaviour of most 30 somethings mentioned in here is pretty much the same as every other 30 something I know.

Sorry to break this news to you, guys. But I'm here from the wrong side of 60 with this message: NOTHING WORKS!!!

On the other hand, if you look after your money and your health you could end up like me - as fit as I've ever been, with spending money and the time to enjoy it. I know you won't believe me but I wouldn't trade being this age for all the hassles and aggro of being younger. Nothing would induce me to go through all that again!

If you ever feel smug about anything you'll have a tiny inkling of what it feels like for me to have worked full-time for 48 years (and still going) and reached financial and emotional security and to have the fitness to enjoy it. There's nothing as smug as a smug old git and if it seems like we think we know everything - it's because we do! Well, it's because we understand everything because we've experienced it and now we don't care about it any more as it's no longer our problem!

Anyway - my tip is to stay healthy. Drink lots of water and don't eat too much meat (except bacon ). Get plenty of sleep but most important of all is to invest in a pension - no arguments - nobody else is going to do it for you! The state pension is currently less than £5,000 a year! If you invested an extra £50 a week for 50 years you could have an income of £10,000 (adjust figures for inflation) a year to add to it. The earlier you start the more it will be. If you don't then the nightmares and cold sweats start in your 40s. You have been warned!

I started on a final salary scheme at 17. I'm still paying into that final salary scheme, and it's protected from governmental interference. Public sector win.


As for getting asked for ID, all the damn time.

Never in a pub, always in the supermarket.

i can beat all the id problems with my personal favorite. i went to tescos to by racedriver grid a couple of months ago. this is a 7+ game. im 19. i got to the till, the woman asked for my id. i said to her whilst getting it out, do i look 6? to which she replied i have to be sure. i handed over my pink full drivers license (meaning atleast 17) and she still checked the date.

^^welcome to stupid street^^

Good for you kid, hold on in there
Very jelous mate, with the way it has been for me in the past it was very hard to put away for a pension. what with house on average being £250k and average wages only £24k that doesnt compute! so now i'm doing ok i can start puting away but i think there will be a massive crisis of all those 30 somethings now who when they turn 60 panic like fook!

I got asked if i was over 21 when buying some beer in Tescos last year.
I told the guy at the till i didn't have to be, he sarted to argue that yes, I DID have to be over 21 :roll:

(and no, he wasn't American)

I've just got back from Tesco's where I bought a £2.68 pack of cheapo cutlery for cyberbrat to take to Uni. The checkout guy automatically asked if I was over 25 to buy knives! I just looked at him with a quizzical look on my face until he looked at me and saw the grey hair and, er, 'laughter lines'. He saw the funny side of it.

Love the story about when jazz musician George Melly met Mick Jagger and commented on his wrinkles. Jagger said they're not wrinkles, they're laughter lines and Melly replied 'Surely nothing's that funny?'

Mick Jagger's older than I am

I know exactly what you mean. There just isn't any spare money to put away for a pension when you're busy with living. I was lucky in that my company did have a good final salary scheme so despite my not investing it was all being done behind my back! Although I had the usual disasters along the way - 2 divorces, recessions etc - some of the house purchases fell at the right time in the market and everything fell into place just at the last minute. But no thanks to me, really. I was lucky and was still panicking when I turned 60. That's why I'm encouraging others to rely more on wisdom than take a chance like me :oops:
