If you’re between 21 and 65, it tends not to matter much in most cases.
That’s so true.
Edit: Nope, thought of a couple important ages: 40 for women (mammogram) and 45 for everyone (colonoscopy). This is US-centric, and I’m sure there are other screenings I’m forgetting about.
37: the year you get your ear buds
I’m fairly sure they just send notices about screening stuff where I live. No need to remember it yourself
2000s babies are starting to feel old?
Shit…
To be fair I felt old at 23 but wasn’t.
I’m starting to think the fact I feel old now is a little misguided too.

1990 is pretty easy too, I just add 10 the the last 2 digits of the current year and subtract 1 if it’s before August
You lost me at “add.”
Well, at some point i just started not adding 10
Born in November 2000
Still having issues calculating age since for most of the year it’s year-2001 but after November it’s year-2000
Me, except I forget what year it is. Like last month I said I was 19 to someone only to later realize that was 4 years ago.
Have you tried not doing that?
Just because you’re old, it doesn’t automatically mean you’re wise.
I know lots of older people with years of experience that are just as dumb as they were when they were 18.
I would 100% agree with that.
I’m also considered old and I now understand what my elders used to tell me when I was younger … I feel just as dumb now as I did when I was younger … it’s not a lack of intelligence … it’s just a realization that no matter how much you try, there will always be someone smarter than you.
If you ever do find that you are the smartest person around, you’re probably closer to death than anyone else.
Yeah, I catch myself sometimes doing “how old was I 🤔”… I know that I’m above 35 and below 40, but was I 37, 38 or 39 🤔 😂.
That’s the best thing about being 40, it’s easy to remember. After this, I’m screwed.
I’m 46. A few months ago, I was filling out a medical form and it asked me my age along with my birthdate. I had to ask my wife because I couldn’t remember. She couldn’t remember either. We’re the same age.
Until they forget what year it is.
1999 too, if it’s late enough. Like me.
Ew, this guy was born in the late 1900s (just kidding, me too).
Ok boomer.
i don’t even try to calculate it anymore. i just give an approximation that “feels right”.
I’m definitely at least 27…
Right there with you. I’ve been 27 for a good few years now, before that I was 26 for about 5 years.
do ppl really forget what year it is after the spring??
and the meme isnt saying 2000 is old, it’s saying the math is easy
soon you’ll be old enough that 1 year won’t seem worth worrying about, I assure you. difference between 29 and 30 years is miniscule and in most contexts is unimportant.
Yes, I feel like it’s still 2020
just keep a counter on your phone and increase it once per year
I just need take years since 2000 and add 4 :)
I don’t understand. Are you saying you born in 20(-04)?
2000s gang rise up! it’s even better cause I’m a February baby so like only a tiny bit of the year doesn’t match!
I don’t celebrate birthdays so I just don’t keep track of it until i need to put it on a form or something.
I don’t invite forms to my birthday
