“How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you were?” ~Satchel Paige
Overheard in Best Buy just days after explaining the Dream Team to a seven year old:
“Oh my God! Paul just texted me back to say that he’s sorry. He’s so cute!”
“AWWW. You know, I didn’t know he was so old…”
“Well he is like 21″
If “like 21″ is old then I should be worrying about osteoporsis and my daily fiber intake.

Like 21? I have towels older than that.
(sigh)
Beckie says:
Dam is 21 is like old then I’m like ancient. Is 28 the new 58??? Does this explain why I’m not married?
Beckie says:
See I’m so old I can’t spell properly! It should say
Dam IF 21 is like old, then I’m like ancient.
Pardon my senior moment.
Sarah says:
Um, I already worry about my fiber intake. What the hell does that say about me? Oh, that I’m old. See, I forgot for a minute. Fucking dementia.
Loralee says:
I have to agree. Sarah is totally ancient.
maggie, dammit says:
See, this is why I can’t leave the house. Had I overheard that, I would’ve knocked over the stack of 8-tracks I was perusing, and that would’ve been a huge scene. See.
Hilary says:
I was 27 (still am) when I first had to think about my age. Was I 27? or 28? I wasn’t sure. Funny how fast this happened. Sigh. Also, my back hurts.
mary says:
I’m positively geriatric!
Also, to answer the question - I’d be 12. Maybe 13. No, definitely 12.
Camels & Chocolate says:
Hahaha, then I’m ancient plus four!
Kristabella says:
If you’re worried your fiber intake, I should be buying a burial plot or something.
Momo Fali says:
Mmmm…don’t forget hemorrhoids and spider veins!
Sarah says:
Loralee deserves to be spanked by Matthew McConaughey for that comment. You’d think that was a good thing, but for her? Not so much.
