    they were born in the 1800s.

      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:

          I’m a good bit older than him ( my son turns 30 soon) but my Dad was 40 when I was born, & his Dad was 31 when he was born.

          My Grandfather was born before the Wright brothers flew, and even before there was a single gasoline powered car in the US, and that seems crazy to me.

            @benroyce @overholt "Yo papa so old" burns. Between siblings. While Dad is driving. There's just no coming back from that. He just has to sit down on a bench somewhere and crumble into 1000-year-old dust.

                                    When I told my kids, we had no mobile phones when I was their age, they started to wonder whether we had cars or TVs.

                                    Fortunately for them, they did not ask for dinosaurs.

                                          @mloxton @benroyce @TheBreadmonkey @overholt It’s the stripes that scarred me. Bell bottomed trousers with 3” orange, blue, and yellow stripes. Men would wear them. In public. The shame of being a preteen with a father who would wear such things, it has never faded. Verily, did my parents fly the freak flag high...and yet, when I showed signs of growing old enough to enjoy the freedom, they became yuppies and sent me to a convent. In another country. Because, boomers. 🤷🏻‍♀️
