by Anonymous 14 years ago

by Anonymous 14 years ago

no you wouldn't in 2001 you turn 1 2002 you turn 2 and so on

by Anonymous 14 years ago

no, because on January 16, 2001, you would be 366 days old. One year is 365 days, so you would be 2 years old.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

If you think about it they would be 11. Jan 15th 2010 would signify that person living for ten years and from that moment forward they are living their 11th year.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

In their 11th year of living but not 11 years old. If that makes sense. Number of years completed.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

It doesn't matter. That person has already lived 10 years and has moved on to their 11th year. I've thought that way for quite some time.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

It does matter, you have to live for 11 years to be 11 years old, that's the idea.

ur 11 years old when ur done living 10 years.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

When you've lived for 10 years, that means that you are 10 years old, because ten years means ten years, and not eleven years, but ten years.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

it doesnt matter if thats how you think. you cant change the fact that your age is the amount of full years you have been alive, and not which year you are currently in

by Anonymous 14 years ago

It does matter if that is how I think, because all the other arguments mean nothing to me. I am living my 21st year right now, and my birthday is just the celebration of

by Anonymous 14 years ago

try telling the bartender you're 21 cuz you're in your 21st year and see how many drinks you get :]

I'm in Vegas dear, getting drinks is quite easy no matter what age you are.

but you miss my point, which is that when we disagree with the interpretation of the law, the law tends to win.

I don't see why people can't just get over the fact that I see it different and making it seem like I'm talking about Christianity being a lie or something along those lines.

i guess on a site called amirite we just love a good argument :]

by Anonymous 14 years ago

There are good arguments and there is what happened here. :/ I get what everyone else is trying to say though.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I get what you say but that's not really how it works... But what you said DOES work in the centuries (e.g, we're in the 21st century, but there haven't been 21 COMPLETE centuries [since they started counting I mean]) So... yeah

by Anonymous 14 years ago

So that just brings up the question why it applies to centuries but not years? They are both measure the same thing.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Well, I guess it's because we say we're IN the 21st century, because saying we're 20 centuries from Jesus' birth would be too long. But it's easier to say I am 174 years old, than I'm in my 175th year. Or I don't know...

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Ahh, but, as yddraigarian said, you are still only legally 20, therefore you're interpretation of age doesn't matter because, by law, you are 20, you get to experience what 20 year olds can, but you can't legally do things that 21 year olds can, such as drinking.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I'm not adressing it as far as legalities are concerned. I'm approaching it from how we measure time. I'm sure I said that wrong, but I think you get the point.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

But, still in that case you are wrong. How we typically measure time is by full years, you're not 11 until you're 11th year is over. Even if you are on you're 11th year, you're not 11.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

That is what I'm saying. Man determined that it should be counted that way without question, without looking in to how else time could be measured or viewed.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I see your point, I thought you were the OP for a second because you seem to be arguing this more than (s)he. I was saying the post was wrong because they would not be 11, they would be working on their 11th year.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

For us it's you have to have already had you're 16th birthday for your permit, and 17th before you can drive. I think you might be getting confused with what we're saying as "on your 15th year" we're saying that to be on your 15th year, you have to be working on your 15th year and that time takes place the day after your 14th to the day of the 15th.
