What’s funny about this is that most of them don’t have that effect at all on me, or at least not in the intended sense. They only make me feel old in the sense that many of them are and always have been irrelevant to my life, and many are in fact completely unknown to me. They’re just a bunch of things to make a young person feel old. You’d need a much different set of things to make me feel old.
