This is how I go about initial impressions of anybody. If a person goes on about any quality, that 99% of the time in my experience means they are lacking it. So, someone who harps about how strong they are is generally weak, someone who goes on about their experience is generally less experienced than they'd like you to believe, someone who flaunts their wisdom is more likely than not foolish. It seems to work that way. Is this a age thing, it seems the younger a person is the more desperate they tend to want to be viewed as wise, intelligent, and experienced. So, more than not age is a indicator. Is it universal, no. I've ran into my share of old people that were completely fool of shit. But people do tend to learn something(hopefully) as they grow older, and learn from mistakes(hopefully). There are some young that are wise, intelligent, and experienced, but at the same time these people usually don't go around announcing it. They're to busy living.
