The Most Awesome, Intelligently Answered Age Meme Ever!!!

General
Glad You Could Stop By! Please, Come on in and Soak Up The Greatness!
No, not really. Sorry to lure you in under such false pretenses, but with headlines like that, I gotta get all the traffic in here I can!
First off...as I have been moping about since yesterday, I did just turn 28 on the 17th of January. Yay me. I'm very surprised at the lack of birthday gifts I received from NONE of you! I was hoping for some little trinket or maybe a Phil Collins record for my years of providing you with the bestest warped humour on the planet. But alas, such gifts were not bestowed upon me.
Whic is okay. It will only suit to remind me of the fact that yes...I am approaching my 30's at a rapid pace. Soon I won't be able to handle the hits of acid like I could when I was ten years younger.
Oh, those were the times. Cruising across the great expansive of the continental United States in a Range Rover with my trusty Siberian Husky at my side, the Doors blasting through the speakers, my Smashing Pumpkins t-shirt crisp and ready to take on the world...enough contacts for pot and PCP to fill an address book. Good times.
But time marches on like a river and in doing so, I tredged the river for this week's meme. It's an age thing where you tell furries who could give a damn less what age you did things. So, I'm going to add the Adrik twist and make it more enjoyable!
For this Meme, all answers will be in the form of a sales advertisement for a 1987 Peugeot 505 Turbo.
Enjoy!
At What Age Did You...
Lose your virginity? Even if you're a person who's not easily excitable, the Peugeot 505 Turbo S is enough to start your heart racing.
Lost someone close to you? To say its performance is stimulating is an understatement.
Dyed your hair? Its muscular 150 horsepower engine can rocket you from 0 to 60 in a mere 8.1 seconds.
Flew on an airplane? And an intergrated intercooler, combined with an ultra-responsive, water-cooled turbine make "turbo-lag" virtually non-existent, giving it what 'Car and Driver' has called "instant launch capabilities".
Consumed alcohol? And to ensure the Turbo S is constantly performing at its peak, a computerised, electronic engine management system continously adjusts vital engine functions.
Passed out from drinking? For 1987 we turbocharged our standard gas-fueled 2.2 litre, OHC inline-four with a smaller turbo with a water-cooled bearing and an air-to air intercooler.
Got a tattoo? Coimbined with our 5-speed gearbox, the 505 Turbo S will rocket you down the freeway at an impressive 150 hp and an even more heart-racing fuel economy of 18/mpg city 22/mpg highway.
Received a kiss? But straight excitement isn't all the Turbo S provides.
Became a furry? The crisp, folded lines of the 505 sedan are bulged out to give it a more menacing, powerful stance.
Went to the hospital? A zero-offset front suspension system (so advanced it has yet to be adopted by most of out competitors) gives the Turbo S astonishingly crisp handling characteristics.
Had a broken heart? Combined with Peugeot's precise electronically controlled, variable-assist power steering, it makes for more assured fast cornering and high speed manoeuvering.
Lost a pet? But as swiftly as the Turbo S can move you, it can stop you.
Got arrested? Because it's equipped with a computerised ABS braking system that automatically 'pumps' the brakes to give you the ability to steer (and thus regain control) during hard braking.
Broke a bone? Just knowing it's there can make you feel very relaxed.
Got a job? Even with an accelerated pulse rate.
Got a boyfriend or girlfriend? The 505 Turbo S offers you a 5 year/50000 mile powertrain limited warranty and argubly the best roadside assistance plan available, AAA.
Went to a concert? So why not call 1-800-447-2882 for the name of the closest Peugeot dealer nearest you, and arrange for a test drive in the 505 Turbo S?
Met someone famous? Provided of course, your heart is strong enough to take it.
Got in a car wreck? Peugeot 505: Nothing else feels like it.
This Memo was answered by a 1987 Peugeot 505 Turbo S sales brochure, who's column "Age Meme: How Old Were You When You..." appears on over 15,000 websites worldwide.
Hope you enjoyed this week's meme! I'm off to drown my own age of sorrows with a bottle of Yukon Jack.
Until next time:

Happy olderness day, dude.
I believe it was the great and powerful comic Gallagher who said: "Hey God, how about giving us men brains? To which God replied: "Sure. I can give you brains. Gonna cost you hair though"
I don't know how I'd take something like that happening. I mean I get all paranoid and worked up at the slighest change in my routine. To wake up and find these luscious locks falling out...I would probably get commited.
But if that does happen, I will turn to you for guidance, seeing as you are older and wiser.
Thank you kindly for the olderness day wishes. I feel much better about the age of 28 now!

And I'm going to be having a son!
Perhaps this getting older thing won't be so bad after all. It's just the dreaded age of 29 I have to worry about now....
Thank you so much for the birthday wishes and the story! That really made me feel better about this whole to-do!
*gives you another well-deserved hug*

Stop complaining! D:<

Somehow, this seems appropriate...
