I am a millennial and some of my peers are in serious denial but a lot act like they are 65 too

u/KlossN 1d ago

Hey that's me! It's amazing how 65 years have passed in just 20

u/Doogos 1d ago

It's amazing the contrast our generation has. I swear some people I know refuse to grow up and others act like we're about to just turn to dust

u/unbotheredotter 1d ago

20 years ago was 2005. I don't think that was part of the 90s

u/Coltrain47 1d ago

That's the joke- millennials being in denial about how long ago their childhood was.

We are closer to 2050 than the year 2000

u/Wobbly_Bosmer 1d ago

No, stop it, I refuse to believe that slander, I still remember when it turned to the year 2000. It couldn't be more than 15yrs ago.

Don’t remind me that I’m turning 20 on the 20th anniversary of Chicken Little.

Yeah I was born on the same day Chicken Little came out

Funnily enough as someone born in 2005 I also think of the 90s still mentally as being only 20 years ago maybe because I grew up with millennial siblings so I grew up with a lot of things from the early 2000s and late 90s but it doesn’t feel like 30 years ago

u/Weak_Bowl_8129 16h ago

No 20 years ago was the 80s...

u/butteryscotchy 1d ago

u/LanaDelHeeey 1d ago

u/slykethephoxenix 1d ago

Actually the 90s are 65 years away.

u/InTheMemeStream 1d ago

Damn, that was a flashback… I remember sitting in computer lab, and the teacher telling us about how awesome this new search engine called google was, and how to use it.

u/DantesTheKingslayer 1d ago

I was an Alta Vista man myself.

u/Pintsocream 1d ago

Well 26 years would be 1999 so technically I'm still young

2

u/CrazedRaven01 1d ago

Nah they were 10

u/Oberndorferin 1d ago

Does that mean I'm a 90s kid, since I remember 2005?

u/Proof_Independent400 1d ago
