You are older than me,
therefore you are old.

That's just my opinion. If you want the definative test, Camel has it here:

its all relivant some people get old early i know people half my age who act older.. perhaps that makes me imature, and that may be so.. It would be interesting to see how others see us, or percieve our actions. im sure to some people im an old expleative, and to others im just one of the blokes.
only real difference i see is i make sure i do my dumb stuff in safe places.

And Makka, im 21 and i get that last bit

ahh yes, The Masters Apprentices

I'm 20, and there's NOTHING wrong with acting you shoe size instead of your age, just don't hurt anyone else doing it. Everyone drives Minis. Just go to any Mini cruise, and you'll soon see that. My grandpa has/had a Cooper S replica a year ago, and he's pushing mid 70s. Still drives like a mad man possesed. Probably not the best idea, but you get that.
