People who were born in 2007 are almost adults. Feel old now?

Oh please, those kids can be five year olds at best, and I refuse to believe otherwise.

A few years back I was a firearm salesman. The first time I sold a gun to someone born in the year 2000 I had an instant mid-life crisis.

Now I have a side gig teaching night classes at the University, and the students graduating college now weren’t alive for 9/11.

Last year I was pouring myself a whiskey and my nephew asked if he could taste it.

I told him, half joking, that it was adult stuff.

My sister replied that he was 18 years old.

I poured myself a double.

Aw man that sucks. Every kid should get to experience the wonderful 9/11. Truly a shame they can’t anymore.

I have to interact with a lot of them for my job, almost is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

People basically act like children until they’re in their 20s, and kids born in '07 are currently still in high school.

I’m amazed at how computer-illiterate the new batches coming out of college are.

Tech got too good and they never had to troubleshoot issues, and most of the tech they’ve used to this point has been apps on phones and tablets.

Teasing my late-20s coworkers born back in the 90s by calling them literal babies.
