As if we needed proof that LJ was a "young'uns" thing ;-P

How depressing. Even if the numbers don't completely add up, either. LOL!

You're depressed? I'm older than you (96%/0%/3% now, 97%/0%/3% in a week).

[legalmoose]

And note, 35 again does not add up. :)

Math is hard. (There's probably a rounding error in the code.)

That's what I was thinking. Floating point numbers are the debbil.

[jss]

Yes. Yes, they are.

Thank you, Barbie. ;)

Indeed.

In defense of old people...

I've noticed a lot of us crumblies don't have a birth year listed in our user info (I do, but a few folks I know who are (somehow) older than me don't.)

Re: In defense of old people...

[legalmoose]

Not something I've ever understood. With everything else out there, why not list a year? Like any of us are concerned with how old someone really is?

A surprising number of people are shocklingly sensitive about it. I know, I don't get it either.

[bonoboboy.livejournal.com]

heh ... I'm 22 and it still says 75% of people on LJ are younger than I am. =oP

Between your comment and incostantemoto's, it makes me think that this memescript assumes ridiculous things about "yearless" users, defaulting them to 0 years old or something equally bozoriffic.

[bonoboboy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it sounds like it. It's the older people who generally don't list their ages, too.

Enter age:

I'm a good 12 years younger than you, I believe, and the numbers aren't much better for me, so you can take heart in that :)

I'm 36

[eyow.livejournal.com]

98% are younger than me, 2% are older, and 0% (six thousand and change) are the same age.

:P

Good lord, the median age is 19!
