I feel like there’s interesting personal opinion in your comments in this thread, but it’s losing potency because you’re surrounding it in this aura of being older and wiser than anyone else in the thread.
Things like “But you'll have to trust me when I say that as you get older, your perception of time changes drastically” just sound condescending.
- WalterBright 6y agoI wrote the "trust me" in response to you saying you couldn't imagine it. Didn't mean to be condescending.
- TillE 6y agoThere's nothing "older and wiser" about it, it's just (subjectively) true that the years seem to go by faster as you get older. Like, 15-25 was an eternity compared to 25-35.
