    Cries in being so old your realise people who were born after 9/11 are grown ass adults now.

      Don’t even have to be that old to experience that. There’s this weird phenomenon where if you’re born at the tail end of the 90s, anyone born 2000 onward feels infinitely younger, even if the actual age difference is only a few years.
      I was born 1998 and I still look at anybody born in 2000 like “you’ve gotta be 12 years old max.”

        Same thing here. Seeing people who were born in like 2006 as adults always trips me up for a second.
