Nah!

You're only two years older than me.

Besides, soon it will be our turn to run the world.:drevil:
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

I'm 21, but I refuse to vote in the 14-22 category. Happy birthday, CP.

Given your knowledge of math, I say you're lying (sp?, I never know how to write "lie" as a verb). I'm sorry, but if all that stuff you're prone to spouting off is real (and for all I know it might very well not be) then there is no way you're 17

:wtf: Because he's 17, he's not allowed to have unhealthy sexual relations with math books and is a liar?

Dude, thats like saying a 5 year old can recite Hamlet. I have (had, last year) some very smart people in my class. A few that would even qualify under genius. And not one of then could do stuff as (seemingly) complex as the stuff I've seen CP speak of. I really don't care how old he is, I just think that there is a very good chance that he's lying, and I don't like being lied to, especially if its not even important.

Did you also think that perhaps he may just be a really smart guy with a love for math? You have hobbies, don't you? Reading, playing video games, insulting people out of ignorance, you get what I mean. Well what if there was a kid, who's hobby was math? It's a ridiculous idea, I know. Possibly so ridiculous that I could be lying to you, or you could just be really close minded and amazingly ignorant.

In any event, there are plenty more cases of 12-year olds who are studying in uni to become Marine Biologists and Heart Surgeons. I don't see why the concept is so hard to grasp. Not to mention this is a really weird thing for anyone to lie about, and you officially go under my book of reta.... 'weirdos' for accussing him of lying and being offended for a lie that he has never told...

Ive seen CP, he is indeed 17

He also hasnt left his house in years I believe


And what a shock most of us fall in the 14-22 age range? It's like asking if we're men (or boys for that matter) or women

Happy birthday, CP


Thanks. :D

By the way, I think aldo and I have the same birthday, so he should also have moved one year up.

okay, this was rather unexpected... :wtf:

I am actually 17, although I thought you must know my age by now as you have been here for a while. I'm not going to bother trying to prove it to you as you obviously are not worth my time, but I do have the appropriate identification and birth records. There is also the small issue of what exactly I would be gaining out of lying. As KT said, one of my hobbies just happens to be math. I occassionally post whatever I am working on at the moment just for fun (especially in spam threads :D), which is not all that hard to understand and yes it is real; if you like you can plug some random numbers into it and the stuff will work out.

Given what you know about me it is understandable that you might find it hard to believe someone likes math so much, but being so openly pugnacious about it and claiming to be offended by what you perceive as a lie is only making you look like a sore jerk. This is exactly the kind of aggressive, narrow-minded attitude I would have expected from Razor; looks like we have another such person here as well. :doubt:
