Would it be weird for me to take an ABRSM exam

As a full grown adult? It seems like it's mostly for kids. This is in the US by the way.

If you live in the UK and watch TV you'll know the guy.  He's fairly famous as an actor and writer.

I'm 40 and I'm preparing for it. whats wrong with being old?

Great article.  I am 45 and doing RCM exam next year.  There are lots of adults who take exams for various reasons, all of them valid.
