The wisdom of the young

I'm just here to date. Where's the dating advice? :-)

18 or 80- I'll listen to them all. I can't possibly do any worse.

Crippled or crazy?

I don't have any advice, although I'm apparently old enough to give it. I'm just wondering at what age you become mature enough to pick fights with 18 year olds on the internet? Does that level of maturity level kick in at 38 or is 40 the minimum?

When did I ever claim to be mature??

Haha. I rest my case.

About what? Your case was about intelligence and laziness, not maturity.

Who cares what my case is about? It's like in politics...exploiting a politician's dirty affair makes him less in the eyes of the people-regardless of the fact that its not related to politics. You just said you're not mature...even if it has nothing to do with the argument, your argument loses validity

Would you like me to edit that post? I don't want to blow your cover.

It's me, silverkittycat.

Nah. I don't care. You are probably one of three who remembers the BearTiger.

Four.

What do politicians have to do with the price of eggs in London?

Come on, you've never heard that? "Eighteen to eighty, crippled or crazy."?

*raises hand*

Advise away!

Move to Phoenix.

I'd like to pretend I'm 16 every day.

That was me doof! :-)

I know. I was being silly.

Look at me, missing the point. *shocking*

Not really. Blowbama got voted in again didn't he??

But I thought this was a weight loss site, not a poly science group!!

Because he gives money to the lazy people of our country, and majority of the country is lazy...if you really want to get into that.

I wasn't dumb when I was a young person. I was very well-read, quite intuitive and I had the same excellent self-control and conscientiousness that I do now, 20 years later. The only difference is that with a little more time and experience under my belt, I have more confidence and a higher self-esteem.

There are plenty of dumb jerk older people who THINK they know it all, but whose lives reflect a series of failures and who continue to leave a wake of destruction behind them due to their misguided and ignorant ideas. There are quite a few younger people who have their shiz together.

Athough in general, OP may have a point when it comes to advice that really requires a lot of life experience, generalizations kinda suck because they don't account for the unique circumstances and gifts of individuals.

just cuz u were a dumbass doesnt make me a dumbass

No, the fact that you construct a sentence the way you do makes you a dumbass.

I can construct a sentence just as well as you can. Because I can get my point across in fewer words, I choose not to. Nobody wants to read long, proper sentences anymore. Stick to the times, and get to the point.

This is a sad commentary on the laziness of todays youth .

Which is why if I catch my 15yr old daughter using text speak on her cell or anywhere else, to myself, or to her friends...she loses it for a week.

Period.

Thank you!!! Another responsible parent who cares about the slow death of the English language and the way kids of today utilise it!
