Imagine being 78 and chatting on this site. 😂 There's not one thing wrong with that. Just talking to people and being friendly and giving and taking advice. I think it's a good thing. People have their noses too stuck in their phones these days, so it's nice to have somebody to talk to once in awhile and then if you get tired, you can take a little break. Just because people are older on this site, and there's not too many, makes no difference. Age doesn't make a difference. The heart does.

@LadyGrace very good points

I am 65 and still here 😜😚 a distraction from the mundane day to day.
Livingwell · 61-69, M
I'm 64 and been here from the beginning.
Livingwell · 61-69, M
@MarilynB It's a distraction. I have a few nice friends.
Fungirlmmm · 51-55, F
@Livingwell 64? No way!!!! :)
MarilynB · 56-60, F
@Livingwell oh nice
Emilie92 · 31-35, F
I don’t think so at all! There are a lot of nice open minded people here!
Nelisme · 22-25, F
There seem to be a lot of people on here that are 60 or older. You have plenty of company. Hope you enjoy yourself :)
exexec · 70-79, C
My wife and I passed 60 a few years ago.
afreshstart77 · 61-69, M
62 here, though I have the body of a 25 year old . . . (I keep it in the freezer in the garage!) lol

At our age we are wiser and should know better (but we do it anyway!) 😂

atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@afreshstart77 are you cold? cause I do like your age
MaryDreamilton · 46-50, F
@atlantic59 Cold? Not really. It's not as warm as it should be for the time of year, but it's not cold.
I am over 60. What does age have to do with it? Nothing. Try more kindness to yourself. Do it now.
Rambler · 61-69, M
As the old saying goes, age is just a number... You can be immature forever 😎
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@Rambler Thats true. I have grown old. But I continue to resist growing up..😷
Northwest · M
Why would that be surprising or unusual?
michaela2001 · 70-79

No. Everyone else is 14 or younger pretending to be older.

If you remember Batman when it was originally on TV, you can't be 14. 😉
@whowasthatmaskedman No, sorry.

JFK was pronounced dead at 1 PM US Central Time on 22 November 1963; Walter Cronkite reported this 38 minutes later on the CBS television network. (See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Cronkite in the "Historic Moments" section, and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_John_F._Kennedy_assassination)

The first episode of Dr Who--An Unearthly Child--aired on 23 November 1963 in the UK. (See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Doctor_Who_episodes_(1963%E2%80%931989))

Undoubtedly, the BBC announced it on the day it happened, soon after Walter Cronkite reported it (at the latest); or the day before the first episode of Dr Who aired.

There were other events related to the assassination which might well have interrupted Dr Who, but Oswald's shooting was in the late morning of 24 Nov., and JFK's funeral & burial was on 25 Nov. (The second episode of Dr Who--The Cave of Skulls--aired on 30 Nov.)
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@SomeMichGuy I accept your facts. Its just not how an eleven year old remembers it..I was on GMT at that point..😷
@whowasthatmaskedman Yes, and not far enough off of US Central Time for afternoon of 22 Nov in the US to correspond to 23 Nov in the UK.

I bet these big events, so close together, got conflated in your memory: two shocking shootings on the days on either side of the premier episode of Dr Who--you couldn't ever expect THAT!
OldBrit · 61-69, M
I once was 60 no longer though. Another year in the rear view mirror of life
in10RjFox · M
Yes.. on 60 th year. I am proud to say I have been chatting right from the time internet came in when I started dating with emails, then irc, skype, until bloody Facebook came and ruined it.

In fact we are more matured and seasoned as compared to the kids who were born with it and just don't know how to use the channels.
FORMERLYbatovn · 61-69, M
Nothing wrong with being over 60 lol n here. Lol
Selah ·
What's wrong with that. My mom watches soap operas all day.
MarilynB · 56-60, F
@Selah lol
There's a few
I feel 60 ...does that count ?
MarilynB · 56-60, F
Quite a few I think.
MarilynB · 56-60, F
@Gingerbreadspice I guess thats a good thing
2ndtimeguy · 61-69, M
63 here just stay away from the younger members we dont have much in common
MarilynB · 56-60, F
@2ndtimeguy good plan
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
@2ndtimeguy I talk to anyone who is interesting, whatever age.
ASolitaryMan · 61-69, M
I am over 60. 67, looking like 55. Hahahha
MaryDreamilton · 46-50, F
@ASolitaryMan My bf turns 67 in November and he's still as strong and fit as he was when he was my current age (48).
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@MaryDreamilton Right On
ASolitaryMan · 61-69, M
@atlantic59 yes, plus two full time jobs
Magenta · F
Indeed, and beyond 60. We surely aren't trying to limit or box people in based on age...?
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
60 is the new 52
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@MaryDreamilton if we keep going backwards I can reach 30 again
MaryDreamilton · 46-50, F
@atlantic59 Good idea. Go for it! :)
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@MaryDreamilton when my grandmother died at 99 people remarked: 'She doesn't look dead'
plasticpants02 · 70-79, M

@akindheart I figure if we are all here, and interact, then we would be on some site if not here.
gandalf1957 · 61-69, M
I'm 67 too - It's a bit like the old work place gag: "you don't have to be nuts to be on here but sometimes it helps ...."
MaryDreamilton · 46-50, F
@gandalf1957 My bf will be 67 in November.
lwshm64 · 56-60, F

eyeno · M
Nothing wrong, been here for what seems to be ages. Aquired a few life-long friends too.

pdockal · 56-60, M

MarilynB · 56-60, F
walabby · M

Strongtea · 22-25, M
Technically, that’s a no from you then! 😂😂😂
Only messing!@walabby
walabby · M
@Strongtea It was certainly a No... XD
Strongtea · 22-25, M

Adogslife · 61-69, M
Nah, there are people here of all ages. Just have fun!

Btw, I’m 64.

Welcome.
ArtieKat · M
I'll never see 60 again. 🤔
MarilynB · 56-60, F
@ArtieKat I guess that means you are older
ArtieKat · M
@MarilynB As of last month I'll never see 70 again either - but in my head I'm still about 25 years old lol
MarilynB · 56-60, F
@ArtieKat ooook
zonavar68 · 56-60, M
I'll be 56 next month, so 60 in 4 years and I expect I will still be single then as my sexual market value is quite low (3.2) and I'm classified as a 'sub-5' in attractiveness.
dancingtongue · 80-89, M
Why shouldn't you kids join in? I'm 84 and find things to relate to.
