Just_On_Monday I am a young blatherer...not all that young actually, but younger. I think it is sensational for young people to write on this. For expressing themselves, reading about other people who are expressing themselves, and they also get to hear about the shit they have to deal with when they get older (so they can learn early to say fuck it and get over it). 040709

dudeinanigloo What do you define as young? If that means younger than the legal definition of adulthood, which is being 18 or older, then I am a young blatherer. However, the social definition of adulthood stretches about 5-10 years after the legal definition. So if the latter is the definition of young blatherers, then that covers a lot more people. 040710

Jess According to everyone here, I am one!
I presumed everyone on Blather must be young, surely you adults have something better to do!
Though, some "mood ring" or something, called me "new" so I think by title I am a young blatherer!

for my wish to remain young

'young' evokes connotations of innocence, freshness, a clear, black-and-white view of the world. nice.

in a silent way from 17 to 29. jesus.

a lot of us have kind of grown up here...or if not up, at least in some sideways or diagonal direction. the permanence of it all is both a little frightening, and oddly reassuring. it's leaning more in the latter direction for me these days.

some of the most incredible, moving, and thought-provoking things i've ever read here were written by 'skites who were teenagers at the time. just goes to show that a distinctive voice with a meaningful arsenal of things to say doesn't necessarily come with age; sometimes it's there right from the start.
