age calling

(v.) The already outdated internet practise of attempting to belittle someone by asserting that they are younger than you. Typically, the age stated is 1-3 years younger than the age of the caller him/herself (more often than not, it is just oen year younger than the caller). This is a last ditch attempt by this person to sound mature. This tactic is often employed when the calling party knows they cannot assert themselves with some authority other than presenting false credentials of thier opponent, and the younger the person (common users are in thier early-mid teens, sometimes late teens) the more readily used the act. When thier ASSumptions are proved incorrect, however the response will automatically be 'I would never have guessed that'. The users of this tactic also favour political correctness, vague assumptions, pseudo-intellectualism, constant small insults throughout thier talk, a general feel of hatred towards thier adversary and getting upset very easily.
