The OP is in his early 20's and he used OMG in his post.
How unusual is that?
I grew up knowing a lot of people that spoke english as a second, third or fourth language and they would swear and say "like" as much as the native speakers.
I bet today they would say "OMG", but then texting and the internet wasn't exactly around back then...
He could have a massive chip on his shoulder - or not - at 23 he'd have to have a lot of bad experiences in a short period of time to have a chip big enough to automatically assume age discrimination.
I guess people don't like giving the OP the benefit of the doubt
