What he said! 51 and still girlwatching. Fell like 21 inside. Sadly the body is not the same though. Wearing down with time and use. :p

Oh yah, and self-diagnosed at age 40 or so. Verified in a bevy of therapies and Rx meds, and lots and lots of sessions with head shrinkers, and some really really good ADHD encounter groups in the SF Bay Area (which I sorely miss).

ADD people are the best! (I will have to add that to my sig file).

was that question taken from the xtreme-AD(H)D entrance exam?

it's just that it's impossible to answer unless you know which year it is currently -
and they change every year.

why don't we just give the year we were born (as our age) ?

then we'd only need to remember one arbitrary number.

Anyway so mine'd be 07

If you were born on the 14th February 2005 and had a name like Joshuer Hosier
and today was ???1st August 2008???
dunno'

- then you'd need to remember

14th February 2005 ->- 16 characters
1st August 2008 ->- 13 characters
Age :: ~ 3.5 years ->- 8 characters
Name :: Joshuer Hosier ->- 13 characters

== 50 characters (and we haven't even begun to consider the spaces)

Now - if you combine my idea with your innovative name

we could compress the answers to

how old are you and what is your name?
into
5

That represents a 98% economy (49/50)
(excluding gaps

which should not be excluded unless in the presence of a professional waste of space (petit moi pois))

- To recap then -
ADDers are easily bored and forget things -
- so why not take the drudgery out of life by just saying '5' every time anything say anything to you -
- and then looks at you as if they want some kinda' response.

It'd be great.

You can pronounce '5' in any accent you like -
dead pan works -

see -
5

5 <- Russian (comrade)

5 <- whilst shivering (brrrr !)

- wouldn't ever need to talk to anyone ever again that way
and
could dream the whole day long -

lovely 5 lovely

5

(we'd have to ban 6 though)
- it's a jaunty little number.

5

That represents a 98% economy (49/50)
(excluding gaps

which should not be excluded unless in the presence of a professional waste of space (petit moi pois))

- To recap then -
ADDers are easily bored and forget things -
- so why not take the drudgery out of life by just saying '5' every time anything say anything to you -
- and then looks at you as if they want some kinda' response.

It'd be great.

You can pronounce '5' in any accent you like -
dead pan works -

see -

5 <- Russian (comrade)

5<- whilst shivering (brrrr !)

- wouldn't ever need to talk to anyone ever again that way
and
could dream the whole day long -

lovely 5 lovely

(we'd have to ban 6 though)

BTW, Thanks for the warning about the hole (whole?) in your underpants.5


Adders are so jolly rather polite;
nice actually.

I went on a journey a few days ago - went to two or three other sites right the way totally around the whole wide world and everything.


In one case I couldn't find the forum - it was private and roamed cyberspace with a floating URL -
it was the MoQ forum (Pirsig)
- I felt for a while (whilst stalking quality) - that I'd been transported into the original 'Cube' movie.

On the second, I was told that I'd filled out my 'biography incorrectly'
- huh???
learnt a valuable lesson though -
'the smilie maketh the man'
The mod bod with problems only ever used smilies which were not right in the head.

The third was strange also; a set of moderators similarly afflicted with the incapacity to be as polite as an Englishman with cucumber sandwich (as sole desire).

- So -
on the 'God delusion' forum
strange people kept chasing after me screaming that
'there is no supernatural God'

- I'd never heard the term 'supernatural God' before and so wasn't too sure whether they were shouting at me -
- after -
having this repeated nearly a zillion times over by almost everybody
- I figured that they meant that they believed in a God who was not supernatural but 'natural'

like my dog or a cabbage ??? maybe ???

So - there I was on this strange other site, thinking that it was about the 'God delusion'
- with a buncha' people seeming to tell me that I was delusional because 'God' wasn't supernatural but was in fact a stumpy chair.

The funny thing was, was that I'd quite like 'God' to have been a chair at that time
- it's kinda' tiring being chased around cyberspace being told that 'God' isn't mysterious but is (in fact) a blue and purple beanbag

- sometimes bada55 renegades need to have a little sit down to work out whether things're going in the right direction
... ... ... and finding 'God' at the same time
- well, that'd be a total bonus wouldn't it -?-

I mean -
- the despairing look down through hole in pants

- and in that moment of need -

- to find God's support staring straight up at you from 'neath.

*Personally*
- I'd never patch a pair of Holy underpants again -
- why short the net ?

- wouldn't want to miss out on a religious experience because of imagined prospect of unpleasant creatures roaming down below -

- always good to have a look
and delve -

lucky dip?
- unlikely -

- best though to know what's keepin' your feet on the ground

top tips
:-)
(every last one)

to the end, and beyond -

- thinking of making good -
maybe becoming a hamster

- your FLA's turn into small hammers which penetrate through into the ears of your miserable opponents -

- and then using mind control -
you are able to make them strike up any beat (from the 80's) on your opponent's eardrum by

~simply~

humming the tune
(under your breath).

Ever the showperson (star that you are) - you often lift your arms during combat and play to the crowd by beat boxin'

I had a hilarious mental picture of everyone's face when I answered their questions with "5".

"How many cheeseburgers/cafe mochas/slices of lemon in your tea?"
And I say "5, please." If I asked for 5 of everything, what would that do to the economy?

But if I answered in Russian, would that make me seem sophisticated, or just frigid.

In return you will need to feed them though.
Don't worry about being usurped -
it'd take a statistical impossibility -
- though it may bear thinking about why 'four' isn't content at current station ?
- all of these aspirations flyin' around -

'four's' been watching tv and doesn't like the glass ceiling -
'four's' sure that he could become President -
'four's' somehow not noticed that his $3.50 in the bank won't fund
campaign

Do you think the four-ists 'll attempt to seek liberation from the criminal arithmetic system which serves only to keep them in their place ?

Pigeon-holed like pigeons
Ranked like taxis

~sure~
higher than three

... ... but they don't talk about that, do they ?

'do they ever'

makes me sick !

it's 'five' they want -
and five they believe they'll get -

misguided fools - why can't they see what they

.........have ?

won't though will they ?
never do -

- Fixated like fixtures and fittings

you'll always be a step ahead - 'five'
heads up

Is there anything that'd help any feelings of doubt which you might still hold ?


- formal proof maybe -
a formal proof
................that I can always think of a larger number than the leaders of the insurrection

(just add one to theirs)

it works every single time

But if I answered in Russian, would that make me seem sophisticated, or just frigid.cool.

PS To everyone else, sorry for getting off track from the OP.It's OK.
You'll get the hang of it after a while; follow Tracy's lead - she knows how to adhere to pink/red duct tape.

How old are you ?

SB_UK
07-19-08, 06:21 PM
"I have to ask myself, was I here for the whole thing?"Lol i feel exactly the same...:) :D


me too.

I keep looking and not being able to work out how just days short of 40 years passed.

Was still at University up until recently -
may go back -

- being a student always felt more like a punishment - delaying the difficulty in locating a 'life' -
- because there're exams to do - and best not make any plans until they're over

- and when they do end, there's relief

- relief though until one realises that one has wished away 40 years of life for an assortment of meaningless certificates, no job and plenty of worries -

- so -
I don't think about age any more -

and it's liberating
---until---
the world which we live in -
- the current world within which we live
- that world which associates value with youth
(looks, whether or not to employ)

- when that world catches up and reminds us that we're ahead of our time
in that all too unpleasant manner which it has managed to hone over the years

the manner acquired through not trying.

The pretty little model and sharp suit have the 'floor' currently -
- sense will only take ahold when the pretty little things with no sense of responsibility start to become scared -

- they just won't know what to do.

It's only the irresponsible who cannot behave immaturely -
- too wound up in playing a role - they're not sure of the line between acceptable and unacceptable behaviour -
and so practice constipation for the whole time -

sense of humour is the giveaway -
by observing how twisted their jokes,
or forced their attempts to smile when listening to another

- their side of the line between wisdom and pretence
- divined.

I'm 54! And I jump out of my skin every time I see myself in the mirror. Oh, yea, I forgot...... I got old.

Newfdog thinks girls freak out when an old guy looks at em, it's even freakier for an old lady to look at young guys. EEEWWW. What a gross out!!! At least old guys can and do get away with it.

I just figured out that I have ADD, bummer for me. Now that I might be able to finally carry on a decent conversation, possibly get involved with someone that I find attractive, I feel that it's too late. I always wanted to fall in love with someone like they do in the movies. I married my husband 30 yrs ago (we are happily separated) he was the only one who didn't leave.

There are other things to look forward to though. Like actually being able to learn a new job, and remember what I just read.

Um, I'm 52 and don't get away with it. You get the 'oh damn,ooops, old dude, I'm not really looking at you I'll look behind you, above you or just keep moving their head in a circle, scratch my eye etc' look. I'm not hurt, I may not be in their "target demographic," and I was sullen over that for 2 minutes the first time this happened at 40, but I knew they are NOT in my target demographic either:D.


Now that I might be able to finally carry on a decent conversation, possibly get involved with someone that I find attractive, I feel that it's too late.


Don't give up on yourself. 54 is not too old to reinvent yourself. I switched careers DRASTICALLY 3 years ago and I'm considering getting a PHD.

And 54 is NOT too old to find someone attractive. I think reinvention is invigorating and makes one feel younger, act younger, and even look younger. Enthusiasm is attractive and even sexy.

Lines on faces are meaningless when they appear on the face of a happy, engrossed, engaged, confident, and driven person.

I work with students of all ages and find the younger ones trying, no matter how attractive they may be. Drama, self esteem, worry. I find older students who are reinventing their selves MUCH more attractive and engaging to be with because the are engrossed and enthusiastic in seeking change. (Since I'm in a happy 32 year marriage, I am not fishing anyway:).)

All in all, I do know what you mean in a way.....

Once I was old enough afford a sleek red imported sports car to impress women, I was too old to impress those shallow enough to be impressed.

I put my money to better use!

That's right.. and that is sad! Some don't want to admit that... mostly when it is their family, or employees... And they don't want to try to understand. Like they're more perfect!
