Passed Maris, tied with Judge; Sosa, McGwire, and--if I'm lucky--Bonds on the horizon.

Bonds needed medical intervention to get there and we may too!

You know you're old if you remember free AOL CDRoms littering the sidewalks

Kinda only just starting to look and feel my age, so I expect by the next time this poll is run I will be like one of those actors you see in an old-timey movie and assume that they're supposed to be in their early sixties or something but shockingly turn out to be only like 27.

― Great-Tasting Burger Perceptions (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 3 April 2024 18:22 (two years ago)

Yeah, what's that amazing factoid: Paul Rudd is currently older than Wilfred Brimley was in Cocoon

Jayson Tatum is still only 19. He is not on ILX though.

The other one I'm aware of is Cobra Kai-era Ralph Macchio being several years older than Karate Kid-era Pat Morita.

ILX is on the current part of its career trajectory where we still have original members but we're filling in the gaps with seasoned professionals of the appropriate age

Interesting that we have a bunch of folks aged 52-53, whereas 8 years ago there wasn't many 44-45 year olds voting in that poll.

If the means calculated by others in these polls are correct, the mean ILX birth year hasn't fluctuated that much...

2008 poll = 1976
2011 poll = 1977
2016 poll = 1975
2024 poll = 1976

Even though this time there does seem to be a surge in people born in the 1969-1972 range.

― Josefa, Wednesday, 10 April 2024 12:29 (two years ago)

my birthdate changed since the last poll

Welcome to 54! It's not so bad. I have another 6 months of it, and then a whole year of "I can't drive 55" jokes to look forward to.

i can guess your age by asking only two questions

1) what's your favorite color?
2) when's your birthday

9/23 — just a few months earlier! We have shared most of the same timeline.

Three of my best friends are August, October and November '69ers. I guess we stick together.
