One current, hundreds of former
I think you should be happy to have made it to your, um...fourth decade.
Seriously.

It is actually the last digit that is granted freely; when you turn forty you'll find you have to earn any further respect.
Ain't that right, 'Les?
"Researchers have already cast much darkness on the subject, and if they continue their investigations, we shall soon know nothing at all about it."
