Reality Check by Dave Whamond for June 13, 2024

is that to estimate mental age?

You’re going to need a bigger wheel.

What if you’re a vampire, well over the age of 600?

Eh but it look like he gots to scrolls em up to finds it.

medieval or biblical?

When you’ve reached the age that typing it takes less time than scrolling for it. ㋡

I think I’ve reached that age.

I ain’t doin’ that unless I win something!

I only recognize anniversaries of my 39th birthday.

When was he born? Wheel see.

Ouch!, you mean everything in the world didn’t happen in the last 5 minutes. I’m shocked !

Yeah, a couple of years ago I saw one of those articles that said “See what (blah, blah, blah) was the year you were born!”  Of course it started with the most recent year (do they expect some newborn to be reading this stuff!?) so I started clicking through to see what was going on the year I was born and it stopped at 1960.  Two years after I was born.   : (

It’ll cost ya ‘cause the price ain’t right …

Stand up, spin ‘round, fight-fight-fight …!

I would have missed by 16 years. LOL One search that they were offering was something that hadn’t been invented until the 60s or 70s. No use even trying.

I’d be there all day.

Yeah, it gets longer and longer to scroll that, every year.

I was once on a site that made me scroll down to the month and year I was born starting at the present and going down one month at a time, with each scrolling motion taking me down four or five lines. Now, I was born during the Truman administration, and my scrolling finger is still sore.

Why the HECK can’t we just type in the year of our birth. It would take so much less time. Technology is supposed to save us time. Scroll wheels are one of those things that are a fail in that regard.

My wife watches The Price Is Right every day, live or later on DVR. Sigh…

At my age scrolling down will take forever.

I’m always way down on the list: 1937 A.D.

I was on a site trying to find my year & they didn’t have it!! :-O (It was a site about headaches & it stopped at 1970! People born before 1970 don’t get headaches??!! SHEESH!!)

I think he actually would have to scroll up

I looked it up, and I am definitely NOT older than dirt, but I am, in fact, older than astroturf. I think it sounds more Space Age/Jetsons anyway…

And to add insult to injury, they put a time limit for you to scroll to your year….

That wheel is not big enough to have my number…

I’m gonna need to spin that thing twice!
