on the one hand this makes me feel like a wrinkled old soul. on the other hand, I love living in an age with such phenomenal advancement in tech in a time span that's not even my whole lifetime! like going from the Kitty Hawk to the space in less than a lifetime. we're on our way to "yOu WoUlDn'T dOwNlOaD a CaR" to "watch me 3D print a car that drives itself."
