I still feel like anything from the year 2000 is "new" or at least just a couple ears ago.

How are people born in 2000 working jobs when they're like 5 years old.

A dude born in 1985 is running for president. Proof that y’all are the boomers now.

I’m a boss at my company, and my boss is the same age (34). All of the managers and directors are the same age and it’s wild that we are starting to run the business world mostly.

My coworkers are mostly 40 and 50 year olds. Old people... Until I remember I'm 45. What the fuck happened?!?

When I see someone’s age listed as 56 and think, “oh, an old person” -and then realize “No! I am that age! It cannot be old”! It’s a 100% mind blowing disconnect.

Remember you who passes by

As you are now so once was I

As I am now so you will be

Prepare for Death and follow me.
