Without stating your age, how old are you?

I was in high school on 9/11/2001. I remember another teacher ran into my classroom and told my teacher to turn the news on just as first period was ending. The tv was already on in my 2nd period class. I watched both towers fall on live tv. It was... an experience, that's for sure.
Side note, my physics teacher was in the Navy Reserves and was called into active duty. My physics class was "taught" with varying degrees of success by substitutes for the rest of the semester. That was an interesting class, and for the wrong reasons.
I was hungover, laying on my office floor praying to just die. Strange enough, our work orders from the ISP weren't ready, rare event. So everyone was watching TV as it went down. Still remember the mood instantly shifting from, "What a tragedy.", to, "Holy shit!! We're under attack!"

My youngest kid just graduated highschool. Pell Grants literally covered my tuition (nothing else, but the classes) for college.
Also I know what this is
Took one of those to the office and asked around. Surprisingly, some of the people around my age didn't get it and a couple of young people did!
Had stacks of those things!

LOAD "BLAH" ,8 ,1. Just kidding, I only has a cassette drive.
Did you learn to splice with a razor blade and scotch tape?

This was my first console
Well, that beats my 2600.

I saw Star Wars at the theater in its first run.
Came home and the family was all excited, asking me about it. 6-yo me, "Meh. It was OK I guess." Went on to become a fanatic.

I envy you.
How was it?
I was 6, didn't give a shit. Later became a huge fan.

In the year 2000 I was half the age I am now.
Can you kick? and stretch? and kick?

I worked on preventing it.
FIST BUMP. It was my first IT job and mostly monkey work, but my best friend and I were stoked to break into tech. Next job was also Y2K updates. And I just realized I had two jobs in mitigation.

I was at 3.7 billion. I could rant all night, but so many of our problems are from explosive population growth. Humans never developed political and social systems to deal with it, and we sure as hell didn't evolve for it.
You're old

I have two answers for you.
1: I have acne I'm too old for and gray hairs I'm too young for.
2: I have the depression of a millennial and the uninhibited madness of a zoomer.

I vividly remember seeing a show on TV very young, in a hotel room. It just happened to be on. When I saw it again, older, I realized it was the TNG pilot.
