    Holy shit, I’ve accidentally stumbled upon a cure for aging. I was born in 1984, yet I’m somehow only 40 years old.

      Or maybe everyone from 1998 stumbled upon the exact opposite.

        Like that dyslexic fucker who wrote 1984 in 1948 I imagine.

        Edit: it’s not even a good joke, apparently it was 1949… then again it wasnt funny if accurate either, oh well

            Good thing that viking helmets never had horns (that was the invention of Catholics literally demonizing) and i wasn’t wearing one at the time anyway 😄

        Everything you need is within a mile? Please accept me as your roommate. It takes me 20 minutes just to drive to the store, then 20 minutes to get home. I want a city.

        Sorry I got stuck on the wrong part of that fantasy ;) I would also like to go flying.

      There was a article where the journalist asked a dozen people how old they felt, versus their actual age.

      And every single person said they felt in their heads, 10-20 years younger. Like, a 54yo said they felt more like they were 35yo.

      I’m hitting forty and I feel like I just understood what life is about, something I should have felt in my mid20s.

        Is this called a sink in the US? I thought the kitchen sink and the bathroom basin are the correct names, but might be UK specific…

          It’s the same for us (India): “Sink” for the kitchen one and “washbasin” for the non-kitchen ones.

          In the US we call bathroom sinks sinks as well. I’ve heard basin before, I wouldn’t be confused by it, but it’s not really the standard.

          Prior to reading this I may have assumed “basin” referred to sinks that are standalone on pedestals as opposed to ones built into counter tops.
