I get tired of people assuming I'm going to be coy about my age. "So, you're thirty and some months, right?" I look them in the eye and say "I'm 46." This is especially fun when some woman who's obviously older than I am has just gone the "Oh, I'm only 35" route. I get looks of such betrayal.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Ahem.
YOU WEREN'T EVEN THERE.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!!
("But you're so mature!")
Nobody has said this about me since I was 2 (and was going around my grandparent's apartment complex telling people I was 5).
""So, you're thirty and some months, right?" I look them in the eye and say "I'm 46."
Well, that's just thirty and 192 months.

I just saw some recent photos of Brooke Shields. She is my age, has the same number of kids, and she's fucking GORGEOUS! Now I want glamour shots of myself with the photoshopping and whatnot so I can have this alternate universe where I look all beautiful instead of cute. (Not that I mind cute. I'm happy with cute. Just that it would be fun to be gorgeous and glamorous once in a while.)
Well, that's just thirty and 192 months.
I find it amusing that you actually did the calculation
Oh Aimee, I have things for you, well, for Em. We should get together soon. Before it involves plane rides and whatnot.
News Radio is supposed to go up on the iTunes store today.
I don't have iTunes at work, so does this mean you can buy episodes for some nominal price and play them on your video iPod on the way to work? Is this all the seasons? CAN I WATCH ARCADE ANY FREAKING TIME I WANT?!!
We are living in the FUTURE!
I remember when I turned 29. Nobody believed that I was actually 29.
Ooh, I had that too, on my 29th bday. The waiter was all sarcastic about it. Dude, yes, it is the first time!! Wanker.
I got that, too. Actually, not just on my 29th birthday, but whenever people would ask my age, and they'd be all "Yeah, but HOW MANY TIMES have you been 29???"
Which is crazy, because -- with the getting carded, right? Either I look 20, or I look older than 29. Derrr.

It annoys me to no end that my best friend does the coy verbal foot-shuffle when it comes to her age (because we're the same age). She'll always go all, "Oh, yeah, you know -- ALL women are 29!" and she'll giggle and wink to make it obvious that she's kidding but still won't reveal her age.
And then I go and ruin it by saying "I'm 35. You?"
