funny i’m reading this thread literally the day I’m buying a new phone for a little over 100€

when I was young everything “in the past” had equal weighting and distance from my existence.

As a young person I relate to this feeling. Sometimes I forget how close to my birth some historical events were. Like, 9/11 was just a couple years before my birth, and the end of the USSR was closer to my birth than I am (and by quite a margin). Which… to me, the USSR feels very much “in the past”.

The back button of my tablet.

Also, the P and M keys when I mean to hit backspace (I use an AZERTY so the M is at the end of the second row right next to L P and backspace). It’s like aah I want to delete the last character not have more Ps and Ms thrown after it !

TIL about the origin of « Tu vas te faire appeler Arthur »

Maybe you’re aromantic ? Though that depends on what you mean by “in love with a girl who doesn’t exist” - are you in love with an actual fictional girl or just not in love with anyone ?

Imperial unit system.

In France, it is illegal to name your pig Napoleon.

Agreed

There are also people who do not fall into that category yet still get called Nazis by political opponents.

First year undergrad math : “Forget everything about how you did math in high school, that’s not real math. Now let’s start from the basics with an intro fo proofs.”

Agreed on the back button - most annoying is when hou switch post sorting in homepage, go on a post, go back to homepage and it shows the old (default) sorting but thinks the parameters are set to the new one (so you have to switch to another sorting and back to the sorting you wanted).

I use it (on a tablet though so not sure how it is on phone) and it works well honestly.

Only 93% do, actually. (7% of humans to have ever existed are still alive.)

A good video I found on the topic : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=68H1H6Z_gz4

Iirc the illegible signature part was debunked as it was a reference to some nazi group whose signature was “illegible” (don’t quote me on that, i’m recollecting from memory). But the Sims 3 cards was at some NotTheOnion levels of ridiculousness.
