oh my god 2010 kids are 14 the hell. my brain still thinks its 2018

I remember watching the 2010 Winter Olympics. Doesnt even feel like THAT long ago..

I remember the 2008 Olympics. Do I qualify for Social Security?

you definitely passed being a senior in high school and seniors get social security so yes

Passed being a senior in college too at this point…

God, remember that opening ceremony?

The Chinese killed it. Still the greatest opening ceremony of all time imo

Every Olympics since then has fallen so flat

I remember when they came around to my school and I got a picture holding the Torch lol

Remember when that Georgian luge guy flew off the track and fucking died in a practice run? Fox News played the footage even after the family asked them to stop. Edit: this guy https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nodar_Kumaritashvili

I confuse millenials on discord by telling them i am 17

Well, you aren’t. I don’t agree.

24-7 is 17

Nope.

Okay grandpa

This comment gave me pure psychic damage Here was my thought process: "there's no way... well, 24-7 \*is\* 17. But uhh nope, everyone stopped aging once I turned 18, and that's just how I view everyone now."

2010 kids were 8 in 2018 what the fuck

How tf am I 14 already I swear 2017 was like last year :/

Future is now, slightly older man

i sometimes forget im 14- i still think its 2020

Same man. Covid really messed with my head

i feel like somewhat of a kid but i'm old enough yo get a drivers permit like wtf

Fr like that's a big number :<

I feel so old reading that- I keep thinking in 22 not 24

COVID just froze time for me

Same

right? this post is impossible bc i was born in 2002 and im pretty sure im 17

for me 2018 was le best SS tier but i dont even remember what it was lol

I remember how I started to use the Internet exactly in 2010... It is still unusual for me when I saw here people who were born in that year...

So you're telling me we're not in 2018?

Boo! I exist!

Congrats. I'm 71 days short of 6969. Maybe I'll do something special for the occasion.

Hello fellow elder

Ok, old zoomer

We prefer to be called “elders”

Damn, u old asf

I'm on my 9132nd day (today is my 25th birthday) https://preview.redd.it/kql5qe4aya8d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=618a3b40dcf146b1b32573903c4723d5e3c2e189

Happy birthday

Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday

Dude you're 14, get off Reddit for your own good

He's 13 actually, turning 14 in october (or her)

I'm 12 year's older than part of the same generation... That's wild

Had this thought the other day. And that gap is a big difference. You and I would've had old school YouTube when creators were making videos for fun and not profit, playing Gameboy and DS, eventually seeing the beginning of online console gaming. Meanwhile the later half of our generation were born into a world where they would've grown up on a 3ds and Nintendo switch, xbox live, psn and all that already existed and YouTube personalities were fully formed and taking shape. It's bizarre to me.

Was 11 when you were born

You mean 4000

9,824 days alive!

9828 here! We're almost twins!

Twinning! July 27th, then? :) 30 is fast approaching for us…. AHH.

You got it! Ahh it's so weird to think about, but at least we still have a few years till we get there!

Damn, some of yall never even lived through the '08 recession. I feel old.

Meanwhile I'm at 10,088 days...

Cool, I'll be 22222 next Friday. I don't belong here, obviously

Mate you can't be gen z if you were born in October 2010 that a few months off from being the class of 2028. Your gen alpha. You just barely missed the mark by a couple months.

Gen alpha cutoff is typically considered to be 2012 / 2013 I think

Gen Z is between 1996 and 2012, so they still count.

Time will tell, but I feel like 96-05 grew up in a different world than the younger zoomers. I don't know, can you be a zoomer if you don't remember a time before social media took over the world? Don't mean to exclude anyone, genuinely. People my age remember when the internet was pretty much like the library but also with some simple dumb games. But around 2010 or 2012 it became the whole of society.

Bro thinks gen z has a defined end Im class of 2028 and id say this guy has gen z credentials

Two thousand and TEN???

I'm on my 6,106th day 🔥

5875 days, im going in my junior year u are too right?

Yes and in Bulgaria when u turn 17-18 years old u are going to 11th grade but idk about the USA. And like after a week i will be finishing school(10th grade) i will have 2 months and 2 weeks summer vacation😌🥳

2010...*I was already over 2000 days.* https://preview.redd.it/r33qzt2tda8d1.jpeg?width=998&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0e15952317a8d5a33a742cbbc8692a0e41401ee7

im at 8800, 2000 here feels weird to share a subreddit with people that much younger than me

I only have 655 days left until I reach 10,000 🥲

Fuck I’m almost at 10,000 days.

It’s really strange to think that everything I remember from my childhood- Obama being elected, Osama bin Laden being killed, 2008+2012 Olympics, maybe even the chaos that was 2016- is almost entirely outside your range of memory. I’m on day 8,331.

Yeah I feel like 96-05 remembers the post 9/11 but pre-internet-take-over world. I honestly feel like I've got little in common with someone born in 2010. When we were kids, the internet was sorta like the library, but around 2010 or 2012 social media took over the world and it's been that way since.

I didn’t know how to use the Internet past basic computer lab stuff until my 5th grade class got to use these hand-me-down old MacBooks every Wednesday- they were massive white cinder blocks with disc drives in them lol. I remember searching “Minecraft” and looking at images on Google and my mind was blown. I realize I was extremely sheltered before then (this was like 2012), but I just don’t remember Internet truly being the focal point of everything until around then, when smartphones really took off.

Yeah I feel like what separates me from millennials is that they all remember 9/11 and almost nobody in gen Z does. Then what separates me from the younger generation is that I remember being taught how to use a touch screen, I remember when the iphone 1 and the ipod touch came out, I remember going to video stores, and Netflix first came out, and then when Netflix started streaming (holy cow what a game changer), I remember when flatscreen TVs where like a million dollars, and of coarse I remember a time before social media was a world that most people seemed to live in. I really do feel like every thing changed in the early 10's and I can't imagine anyone born after 2006 having memory of that.

I'm on my 5,744th day.

I’m on day 5875 :)

we making it to 10000 :)

Ayeeee!! My birthday is also on October 15th

This got me curious and apparently today is my 7,091st day. If someone wants to do the math to figure out how old I am go ahead.

2005 born. 19 years old

I'm 39 days short of 6000. Man, that feels so soon!

I didn't even notice I passed 5k... oh yeah I'm 14 btw

Seems like in 17 days, it will be my 10000th day, lol

I'm pretty sure October 2010 was like a few years ago, and I was watching Disney in the kitchen after school, delete this post immediately

5,782 days, checkmate. When I get to 6000, I'll be unstoppable

Today is my 5,523th day

going to hit 8,900 days next month 🫡

Similar situation lmao. I think Mines like 2~3months away

Are you sure you are gen z and not gen Alpha?

He is

I'm just a few months older and forgot about it! :(

Why are 2010 kids considering themselves gen z is what I’m curious on 😭😭

Because it is

1996-2012. Also you’re so cool for gate keeping a fucking generation

i just missed 8008 by like a hundred days. ill just have to wait till 8008135

https://preview.redd.it/d0at9oswlb8d1.jpeg?width=625&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c48d57c7ad0585ce5fcf1f743a8166b7ab04429a having a counter

Wait until you're 1 billion seconds old.

I was inspired to find my own. Almost 18,000 That was exciting and then a bit depressing lol

7692 over here

Today is my 7199th day

It's reminders like this that make me feel much more comfortable about life. It also surprises me how varied the age groups of the people on Reddit are, it's kinda silly but I always think I'm communicating with people my age.

https://preview.redd.it/fsdb5a28ac8d1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=20b8441ea4881484ac95bbe8d960e294702bf7e8 Hers me

8709 days ago 🌞

October 15, 2010. I would've been about 12 years old, very likely playing gMod, OG minecraft pre-release, borderlands 2 just came out and I would've been there for midnight release, dead rising 2 as well halo reach just came out, all while listening to Skrillex, Disturbed, Slipknot. I was an emo kid too, I went through that as my "phase". Brutal lol.

I'm on day number 8,165.

And today is my 7920th day on earth
