who counts after early 20s? after that it’s just “what year is it?” and then some math.

Anyone one born Jan 1 2000 has a very easy time figuring out their age, assuming they know the year.

I happen to be in the age range to have known quite a bit of early 2000 babies (26 year olds, now) and i promise you they barely know their age

That's a skill issue not a memory issue like the rest of us.

Depends on what you're counting

The number of times my knees hurt today?

Yeah, after you dropped down on them

I stopped celebrating birthdays at About 27 and started celebrating anniversaries of my 21st birthday.

Then I got intensely sad when I celebrated the 21st anniversary of my 21st bday

I’m on 34 and everything hurts when I wake up.
