      you're not alone john, you're not alone

      we are old

      "born in the 1900s" is apparently ancient now. this poor dad just driving his kids to school gets absolutely roasted for it:

                  @benroyce @overholt And Jesus? And dinosaurs! History takes so much time to pick apart and ‘old’ is definitely relative!

                            Him "oh you forgot your mobile phone"
                            Me: There was not a thing as mobile phones then.

                                        you're not alone john, you're not alone

                                        we are old

                                        "born in the 1900s" is apparently ancient now. this poor dad just driving his kids to school gets absolutely roasted for it:

                                        This is when you let them hear the best jams from your time and they have to admit they were better back then...in the 1900s..

                                        Oh wait, your best jams are from the oughties not the 90s? Fuck I'm old.
