I'm ... 48 ?? I saw this when I entered my Birthdate in LIT and it calculated it, yet my sister insisted that I was 49 ?

That's not fair ! She's been telling me I'm a year older for YEARS now and I've been believing her.

I was even going to have a black cake and black balloons to show for it a few months from now, and she was all for it.

CONFIRMED !

Did any of you have one of your brothers or sisters trick you into believing something and you not discover it until years later ?
 
Sure.

For years my youngest brother thought my Mom and Dad bought him from the salvation army for fifty cents...:D

It took you 49 years?

Actually 48, to be specific. But God yes, I guess.

It's the first time I've ever posted my birthdate on a site. Since usually I am helping others with "How To" on the computer, articles on religion, doing art, or writing silly stories that are not of a sexual nature, I have never posted my birth year on any site ever.

I thought it important for people to know how old I am in here as I am posting stuff that is of a mature nature.

Welp, I have a good nother year to worry about the big 50 then. I'm fine with that. :)

Sure.

That's not very nice - were you the one to spread that rumor ? :)

We are supposed to believe that not once in their whole life did they question the basic math of how old they were?

2015-1966 = 49. I did not question that. Try the "CONFIRMED" link about though with the late hour of 11:47pm, and you get 48, however.

Hey, the little tattle-tale deserved it!

Besides that was minor compared to the other things we did to him.

You don't have to enter your birthdate on a web site or use a calculator to know that if you were born on a certain date in 1966 that you were one year old on that same date in 1967, two years old on that date in 1968, three years old in 1969, etc.

You just need to have passed the first grade. You didn't even need a paper and pencil. For most of the first half of your life you had a sufficient number of fingers and toes. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

You can also confirm this by asking your sister a trick question: How many years has she been laughing her ass off at your stupidity?

How similar. I still jump when someone calls me by my middle name. Usually it is family. :)

Colonel Hogan, you are obviously too smart for me. Yes, I did call my sister.

She said she couldn't breathe she was laughing so hard.

No, not really. She apologized and said she THOUGHT that was how old I was. She said one more year shouldn't make that much difference. But I do feel it. I know I'll feel it. I think I'll finally feel OLD when I reach 50.

One reason I relied on my big sister in the past to tell me when my Birthday was coming up was because she gave me great presents.

I'm not 50 now, so I don't feel old - not yet. 48 is a good age to be.

Doctor Insanus, not until Easter. :)

Guilty Pleasure: It could well be. I feel out of time sync now.

So when you were little did Mom and Dad put that extra candle on your birthday cake every year too? :confused:

So you were born in 1966, and when you got to 2006, you assumed you were turning 41 instead of 40?



This reminds me of something important: I'm a Nigerian prince, and I really need your assistance.
 
For years my parents told me I was a South American princess living in a palace high in the Andes, and that our Toyota Corolla was actually a llama-driven cart.

Those kidders! :rose: :rose:
 
My parents told me stories about my birth:

1. The maternity home was next door and my mother walked in still clutching her cup of tea.

2. I was born in a caul. Apparently that means I cannot drown.

3. I was covered in hair (lanugo) and looked more like a monkey's offspring than a human baby. I'm still hairy...

<---

4. If there had been complications my mother would have been transferred to a maternity unit in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch and I'd have to have written that every time I was asked to fill in a form stating my place of birth.

5. I was born at midnight on 30 April so I had magical/satanic powers.

Much later they admitted that 1,2 and 3 were true. 4? She would have been moved to a Welsh village with a longish name but not that one. 5. I was born seven minutes after midnight. The magical/satanic bit is supposed to be true.

And lastly - my mother didn't have time to finish her cup of tea!

Edited for PS:

My father was on a 48 hour pass at the time I was born. My parents had agreed names if I was a girl, but had argued by letter about possible boys' names. Shortly after I was born, my tired mother agreed to a compromise set of three names. Next morning my father was on the doorstep of the Registry Office and registered my birth with those names. He lied about his employment on my birth certificate. He had to. His actual employment was preparing for D-Day. In April 1944 that was a Top Secret and he was a "Bigot" - one of the few people who actually knew where the landings were going.

He had arranged for my birth certificate, and my National Identity card within quarter of an hour of the Registry Office opening. He had to. By noon he was on a train back to work preparing for D-Day.

By noon my mother was back home, amply supplied with cups of tea by the extended family.

At first my parents told me I was a feral rabbit they found in the park, but after a few years I was like, "Nah...I'm pretty sure rabbits are furry..."
 
This made me laugh. It also gave me a headache, but it at least made me laugh first.
 
Oh wow. I hate seeing people so dumb I hope it's an act but deep down I know it's not.
