One of the guys I work with was born in 1995.

I have to go lie down now.

I have shoes older than that.

[armiphlage]

Likewise. But I also have a team member born in 1996.

... Oh god, me too.

[50ftqueenie]

Yep. Right there with you.

I asked that the 2 folks born in the '90s at my work never mention the specific years ever again after the 1st time they did it.

[nicklausse]

Oh, yes. That same feeling happened to me the year my students were suddenly 90s babies.

I keep amusing myself with the fact that a lot of music from the '90s is now older than a lot of music from the '60s was when "oldies" became a thing in the '80s. The Downward Spiral is now as old as Sgt. Pepper's was in 1990.

I had this same revelation (NIN is like listening to the Beatles and etc. for kids today) a while back and I still haven't recovered.

It's a good thing I'm sitting down, because I need to sit down, thinking about that.

[sabotabby]

Is he 5?

Oh. Oh shit. No.

I like to wear a T-shirt in for casual day.
"See this shirt? It's older than you".

I was chatting about music with one of the skaters. I said that when I first heard (Keep Feeling) Fascination by The Human League it was so different from anything I'd heard before it was like a lightning bolt from space. It grabbed me and shifted me onto a different course, musically.

She said "I wish I'd been alive in the 80s..."
