Ok, so quite obviously by the title of this post I am a teen. I'm in 8th grade, and am currently interested in physics. I was just wondering how many other teenage members of these boards there are.

Welcome idiosyncratic! Yes, there are many teenagers here.

I hope you enjoy the forum, there are a lot of wonderful, freindly, and helpful people here.

Just don't ask cyrus for dating advice. :biggrin:
 
I am a teenager. Late one, but now and then I behave as if I was 13.
 
I am a Time Lord, so I was a teenager at one point in time?
 
Teenager! Me! I never was and never will! I'm a computer chip. :biggrin:
Welcome to PF, you'll enjoy it here. :smile:

Don't listen to MotoH. He developed late and still has ~3 years in teen-dom ahead of him. Don't mention his Miley Cyrus obsession.

Teenager...

17 years old, and no Miley Cyrus obsession at all... indeed, I seem not to like many of the things that are popular among teenagers. For example, I, like the star of Twilight, abhor Twilight.
 
"Teenager". I tried it for a while. It didn't suit me.

Thanks for the welcome, Evo :-) Physics seems like a fascinating field of study, even though I don't comprehend even a thousandth of it.

Borek, glad their are some other teens on here, even though I'm probably one of the youngest. ahh well. I have time. :biggrin:

Char Limit, haha, no Miley Cyrus obsession here either. And I'm so over Twilight. :redface: it was cool for a while, but it seems so trivial when you look at it hard enough.


Chi Meson, Does Teenager-ism suit anyone? :smile:

Drizzle: :smile: sorry.. I had to put that smiley. I just watched the Star Trek episode 'The Ultimate Computer', so the computer chip analogy got me laughing.

Turbo1: lol, noo.. we won't mention that

No, that was Cyrus. BobG's weapon of choice is a Pickett slide-rule up the nose. :devil:

How dare you insult how I wear my hair!?

Hah, I don't even bother to pick a style, I just brush it down.

You must be kidding. I have seen your other posts. No 7 years old uses words like "imaginary", "sisterhood", "mentoring" or "openminded". You are 9 at least.

Don't let her fool you. She's isn't even 5 yet. But she has been posting since the day she was born (according to her profile). There are some precocious youngsters here. :-p
