How old is everyone around here?

i don't know, i just get the impression that everyone here is a middleaged man, I don't know why, no offense to anyone? Maybe it's because linux is a strange thing to be learning when you're 15, everyone else is going on dates and talking on their stupid cellphones

I'm 17. I think there is a wide variety of people in here, ranging from 12 - 13 to well.. any age.

It's nice to see many generations helping each other

I saw that post and pretty much agree.

I have pants that are that old. I haven't gained much weight and don't get out much. Some know about me from other threads. Long story.

No offence taken, unimaginative - I am a middle-aged man. 46 last birthday, God help me.
As the old saying goes, if I'd known I was going to live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself....
And what's so strange about learning Linux when you're 15? It's a damn sight more constructive than what I was doing at that age, which was (in no particular order) bunking off school, drinking beer and puking it back up again, self-abuse and agonising over my acne.

Acne - one of mother nature's greatest japes. You hit your teens, and for the first time you start to really care about what you look like. Nature laughs, and says, "no, you shall look the worst you've ever looked in your life!"

Not to be a bum or anything but I'd really wish you'd search before creating such threads: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...threadid=30619

Much longer and basically asking the same question!
