Poll question: What age is "of a certain age?"
I've observed that people start using the expression "of a certain age" in their '30s, but they start having it used *about* them at later ages. So please share your insights with me: what age is "certain?"

1. Depends on the context, I think.

4. You don't have to *vote* to do that.

5. Oh, so you can call me a dick, but I can't cast aspersions...
...on your sexual proclivities. I see how this works. :eyes:



:P
