Can confirm. Class of 2000. 42 years old.
So you’re that Y2K everyone was afraid of?
I love the idea that my reality keeps others up at night. Also class of 2000.
I’m baby-faced which keeps me sane but that resolve was shook a couple days ago when an 18 year old (that was born the year I graduated high school) found out my age and said I was old enough to be his dad 😔
Critical hit.
It was man, I even told my wife how hard it hit me when I got home lol 😭
Have been for a bit
It’s not really a shocker when you get reminded every year.
I disagree. Time actually stopped around early 2010’s. Seasons change and shit, but stuff isn’t changing no more.
What timing. I turned 41 this week.
Damn millennials and their avocado toast habit
Don’t forget how we killed like fucking everything.
A badge I wear with pride.
Yet Donald still roams this Earth. You get lazy or something?
And some of us have been for over 3 years…
It’s happening to me this year and I feel it. I’m going to be an old fart that I said I never wanted to be. Wish I owned a lawn to yell at kids to get off of, guess I’ll just have to settle with being grumpy in the hallway of my rental whenever I cross paths with another human.
I work in a school. I laugh and joke a lot with the teens. Sometimes I forget I’m not one of them and I’m 40. I’m just as immature as them, just more experienced. A lot of my coworkers forget what it was like to be a kid and how boring most of us are. School sucks, remember?

i crossed that threshold a little 2 years ago and both my eye sight and hearing immediately started calling it quits once i hit 40. i always thought that being a stereotypical broke ass millennial would keep me young so long as i didn’t have a lawn or medicare to obsess over, but it’s clear that it’s not true since i’ve lost count how many times gen-z’ers misidentified me as a boomer and fellow millennials keep insisting on pushing the millennial birth year further up.
Depends who you ask, some would consider that age group to be the at the end of Gen X and some consider that the beginning of the millennial. So people in that age group can consider themselves members of both generations.
Yeah my kids are a hoot
I’m in this image and I don’t like it
