  When they ask but they start with the current year. Yes, I was born in 2026 now let me in.

  At least at a PC you can type in the number to get it there quick. Those kinds of selection inputs on a phone suck. Like so much.

    I just do January first of however far it goes with a quick swipe.

    The distressing part is how that’s shifted from saying I’m way older than I am to saying I’m way younger than I am.

      Younger…older…I’m all ages and nonexistant at the same time. I am a simple concept. I am insanity. I have 47 arms, 362 penises, 926 vaginas, and 626 totally new genitalia of my own unique creation which I haven’t named yet.

      I drive an F1 racecar to my job on the moon making space biscuits for cowboys and indians that fight each other on Jupitor.

      Your mere mortal laws do not apply to me! I’m inside everybodys butthole, making it itch when you’re giving a public speech.

    It’s an apple inspired UI thing. Luckily, the built-in android date selector isn’t stupid anymore.

    A banking app I use (on Android) put in a bespoke date/time selector with scroll wheels, with no option to type.

    It’s like they went out of their way to make using their app a pain in the ass.

    IIRC there was an incident where someone went super hard on the wheel and got kind of pulled into it and clobbered on the head by one of the pins. Or maybe this was just a deep inner phobia of mine.

    Any bit of machinery, even if unpowered and covered in bright numbers, with non-arbitrary mass can carry enough momentum to break bones and crush fingers

  That’s great, God gave us many many days, all for free! 👍

  On the other hand, seeing my lovely curls become slightly grayer/whiter is somewhat annoying, lol. I don’t want all these reminders of my mortality when I’m not even 35! Oh well.

    We’re not “Millennials,” we’re “turn of the century people”

  Especially if the pulldown for the birth year starts with 2026 for a service where you need to be at least x years old.

  I have a hatchback wagon car. This is how I feel every time I close it after unloading groceries.

  Spin mf-er! Mamma needs health insurance!
