do I even want to know your age?

Is it silly to want to have communities on which nobody bothers to say anything, just so that I can see those communities on other people's profiles? Like, there could be (maybe there are, I don't know) comms for people born in particular decades just so that we could easily be reminded "Oh, right, this person is in my age group."

Or then again maybe not, because mostly I think it's better not to divide people by age. Some people are mature and sensible at a young age and some never become so. Some are born stodgy and others remain vibrantly young acting forever. So often I don't have anything at all in common with people 'my age' that usually I forget my age and am surprised to be reminded of it.

Maybe I'm just feeling old, today. And lonely.

I'm old enough to know better, but still young enough to ignore the fact I know better.

And that gets us into all kinds of trouble! ;> (But so far we still have the ability to get out of it again, so that's okay.)
