At this point, we should probably start including zoomers in these memes cause they have been on this ride with us for a hot minute

Remember that old song, the one that goes *The world's been burning since the world's been turning" and then gives a ton of examples?

Yeah. It's pretty accurate

It's called "We didn't start the fire" by Billy Joel

What do you mean "old"...

It's from 1989, even in 2015 it was old

It was just a few years ago at most...

Just a few years ago...

I know right? Where does the time go? One moment you're graduating highschool, the next you're signing the divorce papers and wondering what happened for the last ten years

What the hell did I miss?

Didn't look at the news today so honestly it could be just about anything.

If it was a meteor predicted to wipe out the planet at this point, I'd welcome it as good news
