Same here. I was fully grown up when I started using Linux in 2003 or 2004 (can't remember the exact date). However I've learned a lot from using linux, (both from a technical point of view and from a philosophical point of view), so I have grown up on it as well.

Thank God you said that before I did ...

Now, if you will please excuse me, I'm off to go shopping for choice cemetery lots ...

Oh, my great-grandmother promised me that "this day would come." But, nevertheless, I was not (koff, koff ...) prepared for it ...

Installing Linux in those days was a bit of a feat, so we'll let 16 slide
