The 90s will always be 10 years ago in my brain.
We existed in a different millennium.
If you are born 1999 and live until 101, you have lived through three centuries and two millennia
If you were born in the 90s there's a real solid chance you'll see the 2100s, longevity escape velocity baybee
Are you in your 30s/40s?
I've noticed that there seems to be a time anchoring that happens around your formative years which is why most people think 10 years ago = high school || college age - 10.
This is the way.
I was speaking to someone at a party and for some reasons the topic of 9/11 came up and they mentioned they weren't born when it happened so I just stopped talking to them.
how could 2010 be 6 years ago when 2000 was 10 years ago?
And somewhere in there 2020 was 10 years long...
Man what even was 2020 lol
2018 still feels like 2 years ago for me 😩
Born in 2000? Why are 10 year olds on here
I always love that the older I get, that the younger and younger these actors that used to seem super mature look.
There's a neat little video I stumbled across recently that explains this phenomenon rather well! https://youtube.com/shorts/GLViYl-AdXQ?si=8WLzfZkWDkflL1T4

Mr Sunday Movies, is that you?
Seeing this meme has set me on a Mr Sunday Movies binge. I'd been off them for a bit since they were mostly covering things I wanted to see and didn't want spoiled
For a second I thought you looked up their birthdays and this was literally about the fact that Tobey Maguire was 23-years-old playing a college kid and only one year younger than this actor playing a middle-aged dad and it was a funny haha moment about Hollywood casting and age discrepancy between actors and the characters they play.
Then I did some more thinking and remembered that Spider-Man 2 came out in 2004 and I am an idiot.
BTW Tobey Maguire was born in 1975 and the other actor's name is Peter Allas and I couldn't find his birthday.
1990 was about 10 years ago
Same. In highschool when we made pedo jokes it was about people born in 2003, and now they've been adults for 2 years
I almost swear I could go digging in my closet and find the comically oversized Osiris skate shoes I had in high school in 2010
Wasn't 2010 just two years ago?
