Hi all,

I'm new to the site I'm 36 yrs old, 37 next month, so I thought I would say Hello as it would be lovely to chat to other aces of a similar age. :D 

Hi! I'm new here, too :D I'm 31 and would enjoy chatting (I also live in Wales!) :D

Thank you for the welcome :) I'll be 31 next week. For a long time I dreaded getting older but as I became more comfortable & secure with myself, I welcomed 30. 

 

What do y'all think of the term "dirty thirty"?

What kind of dirty are we talking about here? Unclean house? Shamefully old? Dirty-minded (which won't be as common on an asexual forum, I'd think :P)?

*Nods.* Everyone I've ever met on AVEN has a mind as pure and clean as the newly-fallen snow.

idk what it refers to but it's what a lot of people call their thirtieth birthday celebration. 

 

edit: I just looked it up on urban dictionary. it is gross & dumb.

:lol: Quite often anything you need to look up on urban dictionary is.

 

My 30th birthday was the end of a dry spell, i.e. after four months of intentional sobriety. I drank a lot at Christmas and swore off alcohol until my 30s.

 

But really, my 29th birthday was more alcohol themed. I threw a prohibition-themed party, so we dressed in 20s garb and listened to jazz music. There wasn't an excess of actual drinking, but it was in the spirit of speakeasies.

It is known. The "snow" in my post should have been capitalized, but being a thoughtful person I didn't want to single anyone out :ph34r:

RedSheep2, you need to remember that Urban Dictionary only exists so teenagers can come up with a sex-related definition for every single word in the English language.

based on that, i looked up my username. i'm going with "internet friends forever"

 

another one for iff, but capitalised is "i feel fabulous" with " I put on a rainbow dress and glitter eyeshadow today, IFF" as the example

 

though the most popular ones are about somebody called ronnie margo. another is "inappropriate facebook friend" but my username (i've used it elsewhere) predates facebook so that's really just copying me

I just looked up Skycaptain 

 

A lethal combination of smarts and firepower. This cybernetic genius..... 

Skycaptain is unstoppable :P

 

If only that were true...

I can't recall if I have ever posted here, so here goes:

Welcome to the club, Piotrek!

 

I learned what docking is the other night. I sort of wish I hadn't. I also had some drunk idiot ask me a disgusting question on Friday night, in which I kind of got bitchy about it.

Welcome @Piotrek

 

Although, I don't know if it is a club, or more of a deposition for the trial of life.

It's not so much a club as it is limbo between youthfulness and maturity. The overlap between Gen X and Millennials. Where we can complain about the misleading future we were sold.

I looked up sea lemon on urban dictionary, I was relieved/disappointed to find that there aren't any definitions :P

 

Although looking up 'lemon' gave me the choice between 'a sexually oriented fanfiction', or 'a useless person or thing'. Lovely... :P

I got a math degree from college so I read your username as "if and only if," then feel super jealous for how cool it is.

I know bork is slang for all kinds of things, but I've been using it for years (mostly for private things) because of the Swedish Chef.

Hi, 31 and new to AVEN, and was told about this grand thread. 

 

Feeling the need to write something else, so I'll just chime in with a rather useless comment that I don't really know what my username means. I just needed to type something and I'm tired of the very odd and abnormally cold winter in my area, so I thought of "summer" ...and then needed to put something else after. And bees are cute, when not painful, and rather important, so why not?
