The 1900s!? 😂 That is simultaneously the funniest and most painful thing I have read today.

    I often refer to things my friend did as a kid/young adult having occurred last century.

  • You have more in common with people nearing 50 than you might want to believe. The main difference is that they've experienced things that you haven't yet. But you will, sooner than you probably think.

    One thing my dad always said about adulthood was "the days are long but the years are short." And boy was he right. Now he's an old man, I'm staring directly ahead at my 40's, and the list of dead people I used to know continues to increase in number and velocity.

    Sometimes it feels like I was 22 a few years ago but then I blinked and now I'm here.

    That's just technology. Maybe think about boomers and then consider again whether you have 'nothing in common' with people < 47

    You still know the movies. That's the point. No need to dick around, baby 🕺
