We existed in a different millennium.
If you are born 1999 and live until 101, you have lived through three centuries and two millennia
my grandfather was born in 1899 and wanted to make it to 2000
That's a really shitty year to be born and I bet your grandfather had an intense life.
I don't know really as I only knew him as an old man. He did not make it but he came close. He grew up in ireland to so he saw some massive technological change.
You can barely fathom the changes he must have witnessed
If you were born in the 90s there's a real solid chance you'll see the 2100s, longevity escape velocity baybee
Same with 2000 kids. The new millennium started Jan 1st 2001.
