    I heard about this on the radio a couple of days ago. Never heard of her before then. I had no idea she was incredibly rich - money can't buy happiness or stable mental health. :(

    Oldfella is out of temporal sync with the rest of us.
    He was actually born in the future, is aging backwards, and dies in 1962.
    His username has been a tragic spoiler the whole time. :(

    I said a couple of days ago - the key being very recently. I'm not "rain man" or keep a radio listening log book.

    At our age, the sense of time passage is sometimes... vague.

    Even at my age, "a few days ago" can mean anything from this morning to 1986.

    You need to stop being so racist, and who the hell is teaching teenagers such old school racial terms?

    I am looking at you @oldfella1962

    I guess @Tererun learned nothing from the last time she called me racist.

    it is amazing. Sometimes I'll swear something happened about a year ago and it's really three years. Or something happened six months ago and I swear it was two months ago. What's the science behind this?
