And that's probably why I haven't heard it much. I just heard this saying read off and old nick nack: "the most precious antique is a good friend." I really wouldn't care to have someone calling me an antique. And you?

Anything over 50 years is considered antique, so I guess I am an antique. When I was working in an eclectic shop, someone came in asking if we had any antiques, to which I answered, "The only antique here is me."

I guess I am rather sensitive. It makes me sound old. An old friend is okay but not being old.

Well, antique is kind of unique. I wouldn't mind being called antique. This might become use for teasing my friends and I for being single and had a lot of nieces and nephews. We are an Aunt and can be called Auntique. Lol!

It wouldn't bother me. I'm old. I admit it.

People can call me what they want And some of the most pious people on here have called me names in the past. But hey ho bet they didn't think it would all come straight back to me I will settle for antique
