Just read this on another AIBU thread. I've never seen any stats but I'm always very keen on getting facts into MN threads so I'm intrigued by this one.

I figured we could get a general idea here.

IABU - of course I am in the 60-75 age bracket
IANBU - nah I'm younger / older than that.

In a dusty book on a shelf halfway up their arse, I presume.

😂😂 haven't heard that for years I'll have to start using it with the young ones at work. I like to shock them.

Any time you'd ask where something was, you'd get
"Up me arse on't second shelf."

I think the answer is 42

It is, of course, and nobody needs to hitch hike around the place looking for any other answer.

I'm in my late 30s so untrue for me.

ClareBlue · 10/05/2024 20:09

The answer to absolutely everything is 42. It is. So that's that. It was proved in the hitch hikers guide to the galaxy, so no more debate required.

'facts are'...well, where are these facts from?
I'd say it's bizarre to suggest most posters are in any one small age bracket. Especially when a lot is relating to early parenthood.

facts are that 78.2% of statistics are made up on the spot. Or don't stand up to any kind of basic scrutiny.

💯⬆THIS

Though, I thought it was 82.7%. 😉

Kidding! I just made that up!
