2000s babies are starting to feel old?
Shit…
At some point, you start to forget how old you are

1990 is pretty easy too I just add 10 the the last 2 digits of the current year and subtract 1 if it’s before August
ickplant@lemmy.world 11 months ago
You lost me at “add.”
Kraivo@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Well, at some point i just started not adding 10

Born in November 2000 Still having issues calculating age since for most of the year it’s year-2001 but after November it’s year-2000

Born in January 2000, I have no such weakness
Sanyanov@lemmy.world 11 months ago
People born January 1st: pathetic

Just because you’re old, it doesn’t automatically mean you’re wise.
I know lots of older people with years of experience that are just as dumb as they were when they were 18.
ickplant@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I would 100% agree with that.
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
I’m also considered old and I now understand what my elders used to tell me when I was younger … I feel just as dumb now as I did when I was younger … it’s not a lack of intelligence … it’s just a realization that no matter how much you try, there will always be someone smarter than you.
If you ever do find that you are the smartest person around, you’re probably closer to death than anyone else.

do ppl really forget what year it is after the spring??
and the meme isnt saying 2000 is old, it’s saying the math is easy
vimdiesel@lemmy.world 11 months ago
soon you’ll be old enough that 1 year won’t seem worth worrying about, I assure you. difference between 29 and 30 years is miniscule
Maggoty@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Hmmm but the difference between 39 and 40 is a doozy.
TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 11 months ago
I’m probably older than you lol
aidan@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Yes, I feel like it’s still 2020
MightyGalhupo@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Ima be honest, everything after covid started feels like it lasted less than a year and yet it’s been almost 4 years
can@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Until they forget what year it is.
0x4E4F@infosec.pub 11 months ago
Yeah, I catch myself sometimes how old I am 🤔… I know that I’m above 35 and below 40, but was I 37, 38 or 39 🤔 😂.
ickplant@lemmy.world 11 months ago
That’s the best thing about being 40, it’s easy to remember. After this, I’m screwed.
Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 11 months ago
1999 too, if it’s late enough. Like me.
ickplant@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Ew, this guy was born in the late 1900s (just kidding, me too).
SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 11 months ago
2000 feels old? ROFL I got news for you kids…
comador@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Lmao, was thinking the same thing.
A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I don’t celebrate birthdays so I just don’t keep track of it until i need to put it on a form or something.
MightyGalhupo@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Kinda the same, I don’t celebrate my birthday (though I do look forward to it anyways, I just kinda stay at home like on any other day) and I keep forgetting how old I am
sigh@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I don’t invite forms to my birthday
Caesium@lemmy.world 11 months ago
2000s gang rise up! it’s even better cause I’m a February baby so like only a tiny bit of the year doesn’t match!
lowleveldata@programming.dev 11 months ago
just keep a counter on your phone and increase it once per year
Matriks404@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I just need take years since 2000 and add 4 :)
ook_the_librarian@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I don’t understand. Are you saying you born in 20(-04)?
shneancy@lemmy.world 11 months ago
i think they meant 1996
bouh@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I usually forget which year we are at.
Pilokyoma@mujico.org 11 months ago
Yes
Ryan213@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Missed be nice bring 13 again.
profdc9@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
What about people born in the year 0? :-)
KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 11 months ago
If you’re between 21 and 65, it tends not to matter much in most cases.
ickplant@lemmy.world 11 months ago
That’s so true.
Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 11 months ago
I’m fairly sure they just send notices about screening stuff where I live. No need to remember it yourself
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 11 months ago
37: the year you get your ear buds
