“Young and stupid” might apply to 5-year-olds who break their legs trying to jump off the garage and fly. But it does not apply to people with two decades of life under their belt.

Looking at voting statistics I'm not sure I agree,

and when did it become ok to start a sentence with "But"?

***...and when did it become ok to start a sentence with “But”?***

Shoot, you’re behind the times. I’ve been seeing “but” begin sentences for quite some time now, maybe 30 years. It must be correct, because I see it so often, and no editors ever correct it. I’m not sure we even have editors or proofreaders anymore.
