    Are mashed prunes better stirred into your oatmeal or on their own?

    Define the word "old" because I'm positive I'm older than you, yet still consider myself to be young.
    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes

    I'm old as shit. ALMOST 20. *slits wrists*

    So exactly how dusty does old vagina get? Like if you blow on it, does it come off like a big cloud?

    Have you tried viagra yet? (I suggest this for anyone, young or old, that shit is awesome)

    When do you get fitted for your dentures?

    Happy B'day I guess, missed commune for a day or two as I'm moving house.

    25 is young. When you get to 35 you can start worrying. And by then Warpe and Gator will be dribbling and shitting themselves in a care home somewhere.

    My best friend totaled his IROC doing 140 in a 35 when we were 17. Surprisingly he lived.

    Do you ever look back on your youth and wish you did something else/didn't do something, old man?

    In some profound sense, I'm sure that's a big factor in why people feel old

    Damn, I thought jyms was older than me.

    When I was 25,
    Space Shuttle Challenger exploded
    Nintendo games were introduced into the US
    "We Are the World" was song of the year

    This should make you feel better about being "Old"

I'm going to try starting out at the $0.05/$0.10 no limit tables on PokerStars with a $60 bankroll just to see how things go. I know that the max buy-in on those tables is $10, and that I'm supposed to start with a larger bankroll, but cash is a little tight this month (I've even rode my bike to work for a couple weeks to save money for my first deposit), and I'm itching for entertainment after my Playstation died a couple weeks ago.

    I know I need to be careful about what hands I start with, and what position I'm in, and what odds I'm getting/giving on draws. Even though I've played at PokerStars on the play money tables, I want to try to learn and try to do this right... I feel kinda bad about not starting with an appropriate bankroll, but I've also got the feeling that I won't learn much at the $0.01/$0.02 tables either.

    Anyway, I guess what I'm trying to ask is, do I have the right outlook on things so far? All comments and advice are VERY welcome =)
