I wish I was born in a different time?
I was born in 1999 but I wish I was born in the early/mid 1800s. I just think everything was more interesting and adventurous back in that time, I know there wasn't modern medicine and iphones and stuff but I don't really care, nowadays people are atttatched to those iphones and Instagram. The world is so boring nowadays, we already know everything there's nothing more to discover and no adventure. Is it weird how I feel this way?
It was difficult times but people were less stressed etc.
That's just a fantasy. Life was extremely hard in the 1800s. You could die of measles or blood poisoning after a tiny cut. You'd probably have died before the age of 40.
It was nothing like it's portrayed in books, TV shows and movies.
And anyway - wishing something like that is a total waste of time.
You were born in 1999. Deal with it.
The world was just as, if not more, boring in the 1800th for the majority of the people.
You only have this perception because of works of fiction set in this period. But to the vast majority of the people, life was a boring routine, with much less opportunities to have fun than today.
It was also more dangerous, but not for fun reasons. Nobody thinks it's fun to be killed by untreated diseases, food poisoning, drowning, etc.
The air was much cleaner etc
Weird? No, it's actually relatively commonplace, and always has been. Particularly for younger people.
- Would you consider someone born in 1990 part of the Justin Bieber/iphone generation? Someone who is 22-23 now Would you say they basically aren't any different from a teenager now because they were born in the 90s?
- Why do 20th century born people think they had a better childhood than us 21st century borns? People born before 2000 think they had a good childhood. How stupid are they? The 20th century was the most violent century of all times so you can get killed or hurt back then. As a 2000 born, I think I can easily say the 2010s dominates the '90s, the '90s wasn't good anyway. The '90s sitcoms were stupid, the '90s music sounded like a man farting on a public restroom, movies were boring, games were stupid, no iphones/social media existed, etc.
- Why do 20th century born people say their century is better than ours? I was born in 2000, I love laughing at people born before me! Anyway, these dummies now says the 20th century is better than my century. Ha! No. Their century has: WWI, WWII, Vietnam War, Korean War, so many wars! My century has: Social Media and iPhones I just don't understand why are they full of cancer! How sad!
- Why do 20th century born people miss their decades? I was born in 2000, it don't get what those born in 1999 or before have in their minds! Hell those born after '91 don't even know what the 90s were about, they're obsessed with their stupid decades! I laugh when they think the 20th century is so much better than my-born 21st century because my century includes iPhones, social media, technology advancements, and so much better things instead of war, blood, scream, and pain. How sad!
