In A Flight to Remember, Fry says "I haven't had time off since I was 21 to 24!" But in Jurassic Bark, Fry is working at Pannuci's Pizza in 1997. I think it is agreed he is 25 in Space Pilot 3000, right? Fry would have been either 22 or 23 in 1997, depending on when his birthday is. So, Fry is either mistaken (entirely possible) or he isn't 25 after all. Yeah, it's a tiny nitpick, but hey... I'm bored.

Leela mention Fry's age (25) in "My Three Suns", so that's pretty solid. Even though you have a job, you can still have time off, just have to get approval from your boss. An explanation could be that Farnsworth have been working his crew 28 hours every day, and this is the first vacation they get. Or Fry's job as a pizza delivery boy really wasn't that demanding.

Yeah, that was what they meant. I'm just having fun coming up with reasonable explanations for these small nits. And if I can't find a reasonable explanation, I'll make one up.

I also just realized that Bender is 40% Zinc, 40% Titanium, and 40% Dolomite. And that's only the ones I remember...

Well, yes. But we're ignoring the frozen time because he was basically in suspended animation and didn't gain any physical/mental maturity.

And he's also 30% zinc, too.
Also - that "I haven't had time off since I was 21 to 24!" joke might be LITERAL. I mean, Fry could have began working at Pannuchi's when he had just turned 21, and Mr. Pannuchi could have been so uptight that he didn't let Fry have time off whatsoever. And don't say that's ridiculous - after all, he DID force Fry to work at midnight on December 31, 1999.

40% zinc, 40% titanium, 40% dolomite, 30% iron and a 0.02% nickel impurity (and it's been done to death, so there you have it ). @ KurtPikachu2001 - I think there's a general consensus that Leela is a bit older than Fry, but if you want some idea, then this bit from LLLiS: Leela: "I don't wanna die at the age of 25!" Bender: "Honey, unless we hit a time warp, I wouldn't worry about it!" should clarify. Bender at least believes that Leela is older than Fry is.

Hmm, in "Leela's Homeworld" her birth takes place "20-something years ago".... (great, first post and it's a bit off topic..)

Fry was borned July 13 1975. You can see that if you read the script for the pilot on the DVD. Or if it was in the animatic. ...or both.

So all this time Fry was actually a Cancer when I thought he was a Gemini? Huh..that messes things up a bit for me.

Yeah, that would imply Leela is older than 25 in LLLiS, since Fry is 25 in that same episode, Leela is older than Fry. Probably not by much though.

Yeah, but why should Leela care if it's simply not true? And if the victim doesn't care being mean is a waste of time.
