Haven't watched the ad yet, but I was going to say, "the '90s is vintage now?"

It's weird that I don't think of 1992 as that long ago, though (even though I'm 31 now and was 13 at the time, so that's 18 years). Or sometimes even the '80s, for that matter.

also I just realised that kids who were born in 1992 are graduating/have graduated from highschool

what the hell, man, this does not seem possible

And driving and holding down jobs and buying cars- I have one of them and I still can't believe it!

You have a job and a car or you have a kid?

ALSO these are people for whom the USSR never existed and Germany was always one country.

(I think both those changes happened when I was in fifth grade. I know the fall of the Berlin Wall happened then, as I remember my fifth-grade teacher going to Germany--and we had to get used to not calling it East/West Germany anymore--and bringing back a piece of the Wall.)

Yep. My niece was born in 1992, and she just graduated. Damn I feel old now.
