Yeah. I'm 32, and was out and talking politics on the Internet 13 years ago, and somehow missed the generational ticker click by.

Not particularly.  I've always been kind of juvenile anyways.

I think it would be weird for somebody my age to just sit down and randomly talk politics with a 25 year old, a 30 year old, a 45 year old, and a 50 year old.  But on the internet I don't think it makes a huge difference

WRITE-IN: Option 5: No, it doesn't make me feel weird.  No, I never feel old. No, I'm not in high school.  No, I don't want a cookie.

No, but my work did. When I was in the warehouse I was considered an "old timer". But now that I'm out on the road I'm one of the youngest drivers. Grin
