Old Farts?

[stephen]

Hi, I'm Stephen. I'm 42 turning 43 this month. I noticed there's a pretty young age group around here (not that there's anything wrong with that ) so I was just wondering who the oldies are .

Hi Stephen, my name's Brendan, am 33, not as far ahead in the flatulence department but am getting there.

I'm really old - 45 OMG! It's a wonder I can get around under my own power.

Actually I feel good about the fact that I'm in better shape than most men I see that are half my age.

Then again, I live in Wisconsin (home of the deep-fried cheese curd).

Yep I've hit my 40's now, oh and only if I eat garlic

LOL. Onion does it for me. I wasn't sure if old farts was an expression used in the states?

Thanks. I certainly won't hold your youth against you . Inside every 80 year old is a 20 year old asking WTF happened to the last 60 years.

I'm 41... soon to be 42, and I hate it! I use the term "old fart" allot, so it isn't just English that use the term...

Yes 50ish is early mid-age I think.
Sum peeps say is 35 onward (NONSENSE, RUBBISH etc).

I feel like I've made progress but it was purely by accident. Like I've slowly accepted the fact that I'm not worthless . I have finely honed avoidance skills that pretty much prevent any panic attacks (although I guess avoidance doesn't count as progress). I think having kids kind of forced me into contact with other parents which I guess was a kind of unstructured CBT.
