Just a little forum game where you guess how old the person is who posted above you. You don't have to tell you real age but you can.

Start! :)

I think you're 17.

Monster Hunt
08-19-2006, 02:21 PM
I think you're 18...(cause of the name)

Oh and as a note you can GUESS the gender of the person if you want.

I mean seriously. Am I the only one that realises there are ages in profiles? Why are people still posting in this thread? Have we really become this bored with ourselves? Go outside! Read a book! Get laid! Sheesh!

Spiff is 13.

08-19-2006, 11:58 PM
For Spiff: the fact that you're not willing to cut back and relax and just have fun with a little thread in a forum should show that you're older and just going crazy and over stressed. But really, you're just no fun. I mean c'mon, what does it hurt to play a little game and try to guess someone's age? I know you're 21, but you're acting like you're 30 or something

you're 17
