    I was speaking to someone at a party and for some reasons the topic of 9/11 came up and they mentioned they weren't born when it happened so I just stopped talking to them.

      I've got a really personal connection to 9/11 so the memories surrounding it are really vivid for me. Was talking to a buddy the other day about it and he started laughing and I asked why. He said "You were playing with a pocket knife and I was shitting in my diapers." It was at that moment I remembered he was born in 2000. My joints immediately were filled with sand.

      Are you in your 30s/40s?

      I've noticed that there seems to be a time anchoring that happens around your formative years which is why most people think 10 years ago = high school || college age - 10.

    I almost swear I could go digging in my closet and find the comically oversized Osiris skate shoes I had in high school in 2010
