SwimOdin Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 It works like this: you tell me your age, and I will tell you something that happened closer to your date of birth then things going on now (2023). For example, I’m 40. The bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima happened closer to my birth then, say, Elon Musk buying Twitter. Our perception of time is weird like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I'm the same age because my birthday is at the end of May. Also, They Might Be Giants has a song about getting older. My joints are starting to hurt. Super. ;_; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
