A month ago someone reached out to me saying they just graduated from the same CS college I went to, then said "funny point: you graduated the year I was born!". It's been a month but I'm still thinking about this on a daily basis. 👴

That person meant no harm of course and I enjoyed chatting with him and answering his questions, but it was like being hit by an invisible hammer. (I graduated in 2002 and it's still fresh in my mind, that year feels very recent.)

Doesn't really help that every conversation I have with friends these days always eventually resolve around retirement.
