Stupid phone auto correct on the topic can a mod fix it?

You want us to do calculus to figure out your age?

 

[EerieArcade]

Thirty eight. Thirty nine in August.

 

[IAmRei]

I'm at level 40 and greyish haired and brown colored skin, here.
too young for atari, but that's my first console back in the day.

 

[nush]

What was your mothers maiden name? what was the name of your first pet?

Honestly can't wait to be an old grumpy fart who complains about the noisy kids in the neighborhood while playing videogames and blasting Linkin Park as loud as I can

 

[Chuck Berry]

45 in August and still get carded regularly

 

[Markio128]

53. My first game was PONG. Some of you lot would have lost your minds at Ms Pac-man.

You're probably exaggerating but trust me, you don't want it. I've been that guy for years. Luckily I moved and now I live in a nice quiet little town

There's honestly nothing worse than other people effectively deciding when you can sleep and wake up when you really think about it

 

[Decal4]

Are any of us UNDER 30? I sometimes think the WacDonalds name for NeoGaf is NeoOldGamers (not that I mind, gbatemp and ResetEra are run by emotionally sensitive teens or so it feels like)

 

[Kilau]

 

[John Marston]

Turned 58 earlier this month.

Don't feel it in my head though.
I feel 32ish

EDIT: Nice new avatar pic there pretty boy

message a mod and they should be able to correct it for you.

well, the OP did ask for older GAF so that's why.

myself, I'll be 49 soon and the latest trip I took really made me feel my age and realize I need to start working out again.

 

[pel1300]

43 and started posting here when it was gaming-age forum.

 

[Bojji]

Born in 1989 - near the ending. I never know how old I am.

I don't mind noisy young kids at all, it's noisy teenagers/in-betweeners that annoy me the most. Hanging around street corners spitting and kissing everywhere.

Noisy pets and seagulls as well.

Bloody kids!
Bloody pets!
Bloody birds!



Grumpy old fart, 47 in my prime.

Ah I see, the Michael J. Fox syndrome.

I mean looking younger than your age not parkinson's

I really just chalk it up to no wife and no kids. It maintains my youthful exuberance.

 

[Peggies]

41. I think wine maintains my youthful exuberance.

 

[Decal4]

Oh my. That was media I've never seen before >.>

I more meant https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BlandNameProduct

 

[Celcius]

I'm level 39. Close to most others here I guess.

 

[Bartski]

44. Feeling 30.

 

[Decal4]

44. Feeling 30.

My Dad once said on his 56th birthday that he still felt 30 then.

Terry Pratchett once said inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened

 

[John Bilbo]

Approaching 40 pretty, pretty quick.

I cpuld see that! NeoOldGamers shortens up to NOG which unless there's loads of ds9 fans here doesn't make a ton of sense.

PG of course means peeps need parental guidance around here which fits greatly for those of us not over the 3x hill

 

[Chuck Berry]

My 40s so far have beaten the shit out of my 30s.

 

[John Marston]

44. Feeling 30.

My Dad once said on his 56th birthday that he still felt 30 then.

I remember at family gatherings when I was a kid looking at my uncles in their 50's.

All of them wearing suits, playing cards while chain smoking and drinking beer from those stubby bottles

It was a different time in the late 70's early 80's.

Hell I'm still dressed today the same as when I was 14, baseball cap, t-shirt, running shoes and Adidas track pants

 

[RSLAEV]

50 here

 

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

Yes. Are old am I!

Closer to Trollpher than Peggies

 

[reinking]

Birth certificate age? Or age of maturity?

My birth certificate says I am 60. I don't believe it. It also has my middle name wrong. I might be adopted.

 

[IntentionalPun]

When I was 44 I felt 25 (and hung out with lots of people in their 20s, total debauchery).

Now that I'm 47 I feel like I'm 60.

Partied way too hard.

 

[dispensergoinup]

Used to run games off of cassette tapes old.

 

[Edmund]

33.

The hardest thing about growing older is seeing our parents getting frailer as the years go by.

 

[JimmyRustler]

Are there even people under 30 here?
I'm 39... 40 in about 2 weeks.

Don't even feel old.

 

[German Shocks]

And 12 inches

The only metric that matters

 

[kpopSuperstar]

40.

The youth don't care about forums, hence why we skew so old.

Forums was the main hub for things 10-15 years ago, so I guess it's in our blood.

Crosssing 40 is honestly the weirdest of times, everything on the internet is skewed for teenagers, because they are the most active on the internet, so everything is built for them.

It makes you feel so old when most of the content is driven by people 20 years younger. Even though 40 ain't old at all.

When I was 18, I thought of 30 as ancient, when I was 30, I though 40 was old man territory. Now that I am here, I feel like I won't be properly old until I am in my mid 60s.

I just need to figure out a way to make the years slow down because things are going by way too fast.

Be extremely unhappy and have no routines. Scientifically proven to extend subjective time!

It's doubly weird for those of us who grew up with the internet and internet culture in general. Our generation defined the modern internet and now we're basically out-of-touch boomers. It's Gen Z's playground now with Gen Alpha arriving daily.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

I am 525 months old.
And reading your posts, this place feels like retirement home for gamers, lol.
My grandfather was 60 in the late 90s and he wouldn't understand one hundredth of what we discuss here every day. How times and people have changed so fast.
