I loved seeing them on TAR this season! I usually don’t like it when people like them - who are on some level famous - are on the show but they seem like such really great people. I enjoyed them

Same! This season had a lot of NC people on it and a lot of semi famous people too.

Their podcast recaps about Amazing Race were fun - a little more background on things that happened that didn’t make the show cuts.

The only thing worse is finding out they are actually quite a bit younger than you are!

Here’s something:
I was just validating some pregnancy test results done in my office
I saw one on the log and I thought - oh no the poor thing! hope it turned out negative!
She was born in 1993.
She is plenty old enough to be pregnant. 
And I am really freakin old

It’s because we are still youngsters in our own minds!
I process new hires in our city including at the community center. We are now hiring kids born in 2006 - four years younger than my DD19. Pretty soon I’ll feel like I’m on-boarding my grandchildren! Scary thought.

Nar, that’s good. They look old but we still look young.

Aren’t there laws against employing 5yo children?
Oh.

My reference point is still stuck at 2000. Like, both 1990 and 2012 were 10 years ago.

This is exactly how I feel too. Anyone born after 1990 is obviously still a child. With Y2K being a non-event for technology, it may have affected us.

My daughter’s high school just performed the musical 42nd Street - we were talking about the lyrics line “Little nifties from the 50’s” referencing the 1850s.
That song first came out in the 1930s and I mused that the difference in time between the 1850s and the 1930s was CLOSER than we are to the 1930s.
Mind blown.
Come and meet
Those dancing feet
On the avenue I’m taking you too
Forty second street
Hear the beat of dancing feet
Its the song I love the melody of
Forty second street
Little nifites from the fifties
Innocent and sweet
Sexy ladies from the eighties
Who are indiscret
Oh they’re side by side
They’re glorified
Where the underworld can meet the elite
Forty second street
