Funny how time works.

• 1995 was ten years ago.
• 1997 was three years ago.
• Every year of the 80s was 20 years ago.
• 2010 was 10 years ago.
• 2016 was two years ago.
• 2018 was two years ago.
• 2019 was one year ago.
• 2020 lasted for six years, but ended three months into the year.
• 2021-2022 didn’t happen.
• 2023 ended just a few weeks ago.
• 2024 still hasn’t ended. We also invented time travel. Consequently:
• 2025 apparently started in the 1960s, and rapidly progressing towards the 1940s.

I can still hear the dialup tone in my brainnnnnnn

I was born in 96. I’ll be turning 30 next year

I first played Doom in 1995. And SimCity 2000. It indeed feels like 10 years ago.

Since this was true when I was in primary school, it’ll always be seared into my brain. I mean, I realized this when I was learning to count and spell, of course it’s saved as one of the most basic facts of life. Like, 4+4=8, 90s are 10 years ago 70s are 30 years ago etc was stuff learned at the same time, so it’s like it’s saved in a similar way.
