PC, I am 34, so I feel borderline.

Well, by the "(X/2)+7 < Y" rule, you are.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I take it back. Thirty's too young. Thirty five is good and proper. At thirtynine, I'm totally cougar.

Except--second childhood. Or, more accurately, extended first. Since I never actually grew up properly does it count? I completely fail to feel at all creepy about it when it does happen.

IRL I sort of am. Don't ask me to explain it, but its a fascinating invisibility phenomenon in bars, clubs, etc.

In the John Hughes movie of life I always end up being the best-friend-girl but I never seem to show up a the prom in the killer dress.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Well, by the "(X/2)+7 < Y" rule, you are.

Obligatory xkcd.

Wait- what is the x again?

Your age.

X is your age. So, at 34, you should date people older than 24, since (34/2)+7 < 24+.

Hmm...

If they have tattoos they're legal. This is a much easier formula to remember.

Well, if I followed the rule, my dating range would be 28-64, both extremes of which would creep me out.

By that formula, when I am 36, patrick and I will be perfect for each other. If I can do math.

All I know is that ageofconsent.com was a very useful tool while it was up. Beyond that? Depends on the person. I have not led the sort of life that leaves me with the luxury of saying "Well, he's funny and interesting and sexy and I love his company--but he's too young/old for me."

I don't have the opportunity to start that sentence. I can't imagine finishing it that way.
