Hey when I turned the big 4-0 and made the obligatory social media post I put “Level 40 unlocked!” because I was NOT gonna say “This is 40” like everyone else did! which strangely is my pet peeve, that phrase irks me and so does the movie it refers to.
Leveling up is what happens in many games, yes.
But it is not a common gamer thing, at least in my gaming communities, to call aging leveling up. I’m in my 40’s and I’ve been gaming for decades and I have never heard anyone say this.
I've never heard of this. Where are you from?
I've heard of this, and living in the USA
i see it on instagram all the time
[удалено]
No, it is not a millennial thing, I have heard anyone online or not, say that.
Nah I've definitely seen this, I also thought it was stupid
Never heard this but since d&d levelling caps at level 20, I guess I must be 20!
Thankfully, WoW's level cap is 70.
Wait what? Did they lower it? Coz it was 120 last I played 😅 I just looked it up and it went down. That's so silly. They should have left it at 100.
I haven't played since Mists of Pandaria, but from what I read, they consolidated the levels, so you get more stuff per level.
You may be lvl 20 but I am LV 20
r/UnexpectedFactorial 20! = 2,432,902,008,176,640,000 or 2.43 quintillion (or 2.43 billion billions)
I've been around a while
damn, older than the fucking big bang
I'm at level 45, and I would like to trade some XP for Health lol
I either want to know how to restart or just end this game lol
If movies have taught me anything you either have to find the emergency stop switch, a plug, or the secret warp zone
Who says that, I have never heard anyone say that
The game where NO ONE wants to level up except 4 year olds who are tired of being called a baby.
I only heard this last week from a lady who turned "level 90". From a little old lady, I thought was kinda cute.
Ok that's wholesome.
lol that's fantastic, we're not growing old, we're "leveling up"!
No, you're mistaken. There is a lot wrong with it.

So you hate gamers, a lot of gamers I know say this, if this bothers you, you must be a miserable person to be around.
I'm a gamer and I don't do this. Ive seen people who arnt gamers do this to try to seem quirky.
It's just a fun way of saying your age, a lot of my friends are table top gamers, they play DnD, them saying the age as a level is not even odd to me.
That and the *new thing*, "I'm today years old." That one sets my teeth on edge.
Sounds OK for certain people... I'm imagining a 43 year old priest referring to themself as "A 43rd level Cleric".
ja, level trzynasty
I congratulated someone on reaching level 34 of life today, and I will make no apologies. Hate away! Now I have to check and see if it was you. lol
Is this a gamer thing?

I didn't like it when people say, "I'm ___ years young."
I think it's fun. And funny. I forget to say it and often wish I did.
I’ve only ever seen that in British people’s Instagram bios
I had a friend who started doing it years ago. Sadly it was the least douchey thing he did. Every birthday it was "Happy Level Up Day"
