You forgot to mention that all you have to do is wake up and you are acting like a teenager. A fat, grouchy, mouthy teenager with a smelly dog.

20.
Old enough to be taken seriously, and do fun things. And young enough to do fun things.

Hey, ol' Paint! Since the parameters of your question stops at age 70, it damn sure cuts that jackass wonderaz outta your hypothetical loop.
Age is, in a sense, a relative thing. Whenever I get to feelin' old 'n' weary, all I need do is take a look at the jackass and I feel like a teenager all over again. Amen.

maybe 1, constantly in awe of everything and always having nipples put in your mouth (unless those nutters in the other thread have anything to do with it)

I said 10.
This was 10.
*sigh*

i found this today while looking for my teen pic.
I was on a ferry boat (The Princess Margeurite) going from Seattle to Victoria BC for a school field trip. I remember buying those liquor-filled chocolates and some lilac perfume in the gift shop and thinking it was quite sophisticated.
Well, it was.

My mother always told me to finish what I started, but she had no idea of some of the people I'd be dealing with.

Assuming that the 70 year old option doesn't include a decrepit body, I'd go for that. As long as I am healthy enough to be able to walk freely without problems, maybe go skiing, I'd be happiest as old as possible.
I look forward to being old and being that mature and developed. I'd like to think I would even become "wise." Of course, if the trade off here is to spend the next 500 years with a walker and an oxygen mask, I'll pass on the advanced age.
Something kind of interesting just occured to me though... If you were to consider what was the best year of your life, logically wouldn't it follow that that would be the age you would want to be locked in to? For me, no, because although the best year I ever had (so far) was a few back, I wouldn't trade the mature knowledge I have experienced since then to be at that "prime" age.
But there is something to be said for being able to get it up time after time after time all night long.......
Old age and wisdom shall always overcome youthfulness and vigor (or something like that.)

i dont think i've done enough maturing since that age to justify selecting 40.

that's what I was thinking Nute!
as long as my body wasn't falling apart.
Cos then I'd have no more periods. I could pick up younger men and wow them with my experience. I could freak out the youth.
but I wanna go through life like Orlando did 
esp like in the movie with the enunch following me around singing (see it, great movie)

Hmm..10 would be fun. I was a happy little 10 yearold, but I'd hate to have to depend on ppl forever. You'd always have to have an adult pose as a parent, like Claudia did in Interview with the Vampire and that little boy in Mermaid Scar. They didn't become very nice ppl in the end.
It'd be fun to be 70 as long as I was healthy enough to do physical activities w/ no problem. Being old is a fearful and depressing time for most ppl because they know they can easily die any second, but if I know I'll live forever no matter what that wouldn't be an issue. That way I could be mature as possible, but not have to deal with any of the negative side affects of old age except maybe some wrinkles. Even then, when you look old, ppl stop exspecting you to look good and just dont question your appearence. They respect anything you do just because you're old. It'd be great. I'd be the crazy granny speeding down the highway on the motorcycle, taking swigs of vodka. Good times.

Beer, sex, voting. Being youthful.
England copied us, 18 = adult (legally).
