LOL!

[LotusKitty]

I'm the big 3-0! DX But as long as I keep getting carded for stuff, it's all good. ^_^

[saraht3hpixie]

I never got carded for stuff. I was to scared to even by spray paint.

Here's a shocker for some of you...

I'll be turning 39 the day before the con (April 22)!

Yep... you have a "Middle Aged Man" attending the con this year. And I'm damned proud to be that way.

[lirinisxaldin]

Hey you guys I actually just turned 21 and I know a few people who are 23 24 by now.

*scratches hair* makes me feel a little down that it took me so long to get into cosplay (and still not going full force on it (I hate school debt)) cause I'm turning 26 this summer... That's it, I'm jumping ship and swimming to Japan!

I agree with lotuskitty. I'll be turning 31 next Saturday, but I have enjoyed the compliments that I look much younger than I am. I attended ASTL last year for the first time, and looking forward to some more good fun.

Hey, I know how y'all feel. I'm 27! I don't feel like it most days. Still look at myself sometimes and go, I'm 27? Really? lol My fiance is 36 and will be 37 this year. He definitely doesn't look like it nor act like it! Oh, and as a side note, we started dating last year right after meeting at ASTL 2009. . .and we first met (without realizing something was going to happen) at ASTL 2007! Go figure, huh? ^_^

Most Otakus don't act there age.

I'm 22. I'll be 23 in September. This will be my first year in cosplay and if ya'll are drinking count me in.

[kgods]

26 here. Will be 27 in September.
I will NOT be partaking of drunken debauchery. Actually, I can't drink alcohol at all... order from my medical overlords. ;D

At least the elders among us have wisdom in our chosen field. "does his best terrible old guy impression" You whippersnappers don't remember the days of curiosity that entailed a weekend rental of Urotsukidoji and the carnage that followed...

[Strange Little Bird]

I'll be 22 this summer -- I'm just frequently mistaken for being a 16 year-old...and a woman.

Regardless, I raise a question -- does anyone else feel that con attendees are getting younger and younger?

I remember going to cons when I was 16-17 and noticing that most of the attendees were a lot older than me. Now it seems like cons are swarming with the 14-16 age range.

Is that just my power of perception going bad?

You could count me in...if my 21st birthday wasn't like two d**n weeks after the convention... :/

I think a good little 20-something get together at the con would be fun. All of us hanging out at the con being annoyed by the younger generation. Yep.
