Perception of time

Every year is getting shorter

He missed the starting gun?

The civil war ended in 1865 or so ww2 ended in 1945. 80 years difference

It’s been 79 years since ww2.

Time for something else?

The Tet Offensive was 23 years after VJ Day.

My birth year is closer to the Shootout at the OK Corral than it is to today.

1999 is a quarter century ago.

1999 is a quarter century ago.

That was also the last time Nebraska was relevant in college football I mean. Never mind

You need to "unburden" your "burdens"... THAT is the real "significance"...

Time keeps on slipping slipping slipping into the future.
The older you get, the faster it slips. I guess OD is finding that out.

1968 Chicago is going to repeat next week.

I see no problem with that

We need more threads like this... anything that distracts boomers from voting & walking 0.8 mph on a crowded sidewalk.

Man, I do this, and Covid had nothing to do with it. I usually relate all the years gone by in relation to sports. I can't believe the kick six was as long ago as it was. Or we had the four team CFP for ten years (I think). Hell, I remember seeing one of my kindergarten report cards when I was in my teens. And I thought, "Wait a minute. I started kindergarten in the 70's (well 1979 actually but still)."

The older you get, the more it compresses. The best part, though, is that you learn to make every moment count.

The BEST part is you can finally start wearing diapers again with no questions asked

No one told him when to run.
