I heard the phrase “in the 1900s” to refer to the 90s recently.
I instantly doubled in age.
Ah yes, the golden days of yore. It was the simple days of System of a Down, funny Adam Sandler movies, and JNCO jeans. Oh to be back in those halcyon days.
When you put it that way suddenly it does feel like a long time ago.
Feels like yesterday to me. Time is flying.
My mom is a therapist in an elementary school and she said all the kids call the 90’s the 1900’s and it’s hilarious. They aren’t wrong, but damn do I feel old. I’m not even old enough to remember living in the 90’s, so I can’t even imagine how old my mom must feel.
“the 1900s” feels like 1900-1909, but “the 20th century” feels like 1995-1999. I wonder why.
“20th Century” makes me think of drums, trumpets, and searchlights.
I felt that in my soul. But I stopped getting carded when I acquired that thousand yard stare one gets when life has been shit enough.
I think it might be the gray in my beard…
I’m early 30s but I started greying in high school. Somehow I still get carded.
I had grey in my goatee area from 28 and on. The grey grows a little bit each year now i think but it was a pretty constant “sinister patch” for a while.
Call me when they quit checking your id. I haven’t been carded in several years and I’m not even 40. You know that sign that says, “anyone who looks under 40 will be IDed” or whatever? Like damn they could at least pretend.
I used to work at a gas station that the register wouldn’t let us proceed at all if we didn’t scan an ID or enter a birthday, people got so offended.
I always get excited when they card now lol
Damn, sign says only under thirty here.
I’m sorry but what’s wrong with your country (the sign)?
Look at you still getting ID’d.
I’m not far off from my birthday being closer to d day than the present.
This is hurtful
felt that in my soul
Sounds like someone needs a whipper snapper whisperer. Snap.
Where I live, they should also be checking to see if your ID is expired. An expired ID is not a valid form of ID.

My ID is expired, but I haven’t been ID’d in at least 8 years. No grays, still got all my hair, but I think the lines and scars on my face are a dead giveaway.
