    Back in 1980, the year 2000 seemed so far away, it could as well have been 3000.
    Now in 2020, the year 2000 seems to have been only yesterday.

    If humans all died out now in some sort of mass extinction event the trace we'd leave would be about a millimeter thick in rock in a hundred millions years time and would probably never be discovered.

    Except for the plastic. Geologists even have a name for it.

    Why aren't your thumbs called your 'big fingers'. And your big toes aren't called your 'fumbs' (feet thumbs) ?

    Apparently there is no official word for a person that collects fridge magnets. I propose Ferrovenirist.
