Here’s something I do that helps with “feeling old” when people point out things that happened 20 or so years ago.
The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion came out 20 years ago, but what was I actually doing 20 years ago? I was like 10 or 11 years old in middle school and my brothers friend let him borrow the game over the weekend. I’ve basically lived two thirds of my life since then. My first job, moving out of my parents, my first apartment, getting my drivers license, my first car, my first real girlfriend, all of my neices and nephews being born, going to an amusement park for the first time, going to a movie theather for the first time, and basically everything else I can think of because I sure as shit don’t remember much before I was 10 years old. So pretty much everything important that has ever happened in my entire life was between the time of Oblivion coming out and now.
So yeah, we are definitely getting older. But that doesn’t mean the time in between was just nothing. It feels like 2006 was yesterday because we often gloss over everything in between and don’t really focus on what was actually going on in our lives at the time.
