Since Kallor's asked for it twice, and I personally am curious, here it is:
I wanted to keep the older folks from being embarrassed, so after 40 years, it's anyone's guess. Of course, you can always reply with your age...

'Tell me, Tool, what dominates your thoughts?'
The Imass shrugged before replying. 'I think of Mafia, Adjunct.'
'Do all Imass think about Mafia?'
'No. Few think at all.'
'Why is that?'
The Imass leaned his head to one side and regarded her. 'Because, Adjunct, they are sheeple.'
Sometimes I wonder, "Why is that frisbee getting bigger?" ... and then it hits me.

21: (19-24)
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

21 and enjoying my many years of life left to me, which are sadly decreasing rapidly due to heavy alcohol, well, it's not abuse, as it's not an abusive relationship, but I'd say mutual understanding
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

30. I lied for months before I turned it though. I want to get older. It's impressive.

So far the youngest person I've come across here is 14....nice to see Erikson breaks the generations barrier!

Um, you DO realise the poll is OPEN? As in you can see who voted what?

I'm 19, and in December I'll be turning 20.
And so the First denied their Mother,
in their fury, and so were cast out,
doomed children of Mother Dark.

26 and a half officially, but students tend to treat me like an old man (hmm, I wonder whether that is good or bad).

I am 18. Five more months till 19.
I don't want to get older = I want all those years that I slept through back so I can do more stuff during that time. what a waste!
