And that time you broke a child's arm.

That only happened because he was threatening my young.

You had a cob on about that? 
Don't worry I got that.
This is totally true, when we first move to Devon, we backed onto a park with lots of swans and we became known as the swan family because we fed them all the time and got them to eat out of our hands and eventually they would cross the field to the back of our house every afternoon for lunch, with the cygnets! Was very funny when the footballers would have to stop to let them pass. We had one in the bath once cause it got sick and we had to save it so it sat in the bath for four hours waiting for the RSPCA. When I get to see you again Dolly, I'll bring you the pics .
For years, I thought eugenics was something that Gene Roddenberry had made up. I had no idea that it was one the main ideas behind the Holocaust.

I have two really grumpy black swans very near my home (I'm watching them as I type), as well as dozens of ornamental ducks and some aylesburys. But I often hear them being murdered by foxes at night.
When I lived in the country I sometimes had to pass by a flock of geese and they were scary, nasty buggers.
Geese are evil.

Quote: RubyMae - Glamourous Snowdrop at Large @ March 13 2009, 8:03 AM GMTI'm 24 (nooooooooooooooooooo!) believe it or not but most people who meet me for the first time think I'm 18 - 19 or even younger. I have been IDed for a 15 film before which was quite annoying cause I had no ID on me. My Dad says it's cause I have a baby face which runs in our family (My half sister gets exactly the same and she is 28). Looking younger also runs in my Mum's family too. The wierd thing is when I was a kid, people thought I was older because I was very tall for my age!
It works for me sometimes like avoiding survey people by telling them I'm only 17 and I have been offered childs fare in the past but it backfires a lot as well when I forget my ID or when I'm working with someone who assumes they have more experience than me because I'm "younger".
I'm also 24 and look a bit childlike. To combat this I've grown some facial hair. Could be worth a try?

Don't! I get long thick dark hair on my legs and arms and I wax with no mercy 
. Mind you that could be my brain tricking me again. I need to advertise for a human mirror. Someone to tell me if my nose really is too big or whether or not I have gorilla feet.
I wouldn't mind the colour of the hair if it wasn't for the fact I'm naturally a blonde which is confusing.
Did you find when you were underage, you got away with looking older?

I never did any activities where I needed to look older.

Don't leave.... I made tea for you and all my teddy bears. Won't you join our tea party? *Cue creepy music box*

Well I didn't (much) but I did always look older. I rememeber my Dad would have to bring my bus pass with us to the cinema to prove I was entitled to a child's fare. Then came the fun when I was older of proving I was old enough to see the film.

Really? I thought you were mid-30s. Dunno why?
Unfortunately, he looks it.
