How old is every one here?

[Wilby]

I like how everything up to 40 is short, then it appears we probably ought to just give up... 40 - 60, and 60 - dead.

In the dead category ... 63.

 

[Grandpa Frank]

My birth certificate says 67 , but my body feels like 90 many days and I often feel brain dead.

That makes you and me together equal to 5+ of the others.

I'm up there with you guys also. Time flies really quick when we at this age.

Getting older day by day beats the alternative.

 

[Jellyfish Kiss]

21, but I won't be for long.

 

[tsugiwajapan]

[ewww]

I'm beginning to think forums are for older people these days.

No males on my father's side of the family lived beyond 65 and I thought sure I would NEVER get that old , LOL. Now I'm 69 and feel like 100 with pretty good health , I guess I'll be the family record holder. I think not smoking or drinking has helped me live longer. That and Maine winters of cleaning up snow. I have a 95 foot long driveway that takes a lot of work to clean after the many storms we get in the winter.

That's pretty much the case in the U.S. It's a Reddit / FB world mostly now.

I never heard of Reddit. What is it all about?
FB, I heard is not so hot these days. Is that true?

If you were a techie back in the day, it's similar to USENET. There are chat groups on every topic imaginable.
FB is not hot with the kids I guess but it's ubiquitous. I don't think you can beat it for sharing with your family/friends.
As far as groups, there are also groups on just about anything you can think of there because anybody can start one.

Facebook blows me away with the amount of groups. I have groups for each place I was stationed in the Navy. Groups for the small village where I grew up. Groups for my high school class. All kinds of police groups. I have several JREF friends on Facebook that no longer come here. Now that I'm retired and rarely leave my home , I spend about 8 to 10 hours on Facebook , a good way to kill time.

Wow! That is incredible.

If you are looking for other things to do, you could try quora.com as well. Help fill up the other 14 hours of the day.

Hi, I'm probably a little too old to be in here. But yeah, hello everyone!

 

[Grandpa Frank]

Ahh come on MarLion , too old? You can never be too old for JREF , LOL.

 

[Menk]

Hello everyone, I'm newbie, thanks

 

[dogdays21]

Wow, this forum skews very young. I'm a Gen X-er in calendar years, but can vary from GenZ to Boomer in mentality, depending on day and situation.

34.
As granny used to say, it's the inner age that matters.

Don't worry you are still young.

 

[Grandpa Frank]

At my age , anyone under 65 is still young , LOL.
