Halo: Anniversary, the 10 year HD re-release/remaster of Halo: Combat Evolved, is 11 years old.

This hurts - right in the telomeres.

And yet we still haven't gotten Halo: Anniversary: Anniversary SMH head bungie

[-] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Joking aside, I would buy it.

I remember the controversial launch of Grand Theft Auto. The first game.

GTA 5 is ten years old.

Sigh.

I legitimately feel like my mind stopped updating time when I graduated high school. The PS3 and Xbox 360 will always feel fairly recent to me, lol.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

I still consider them "modern" consoles.

The PS2 was my newest console until I got a Switch this year. If I could experience Fallout 3 on a PS3 like I did one time in college, I'd probably still be blown away.

From birth to 18 feels like such a long time. The next 18 years felt like they went by in a flash.

My dad said to me when I was a kid that when I was ten a year was a whole tenth of my life, and when I'm 50 it will only be one 50th of my life. So every year feels shorter. Not sure how much sense that makes, but it's always stuck in my head.

I'm waiting for "20" to register the equivalent of "year" and all anyone hears is the second number: 2072 = 72.

And in this world, "19" throws people for a loop. Like "Shit. You're THAT old"

About 10 years ago I overheard one of my kids dismiss something as being "from the 1900's". It was about 15 years old at the time.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Ah yes, the ancient year of 1998

"20th Century Boy" hits different now.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

I think it's pre-covid now. That last few years were so fucking long.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Like when they say "Pre-Covid".

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

man, those were simpler times. Ahhhh. The good old days.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

If I’m ever hazy about “10 years ago” I just consult my knees.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Some people's knees can tell the weather, but telling time is even better!

Humor? This is life.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

See, this one doesn't quite do it for me because 2013 was two whole countries ago, so yeah, it kinda feels like a decade.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Nah, "10 years ago" makes me think fondly of the relative stability of the Obama administration. The difference from pre- to post-2016 seems far bigger than any shift in the two decades before that.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Get out of my head :(

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Wait I don't think the math is right 🤔
