The sequel you didn’t know you needed. 👀 We’re back with Part 2 of "What Year Were You Born?" and let’s just say… one of these is not like the others.

Shoutout to our lone Gen Z hero holding down the fort for 2002, because everyone else in this video is officially a relic from the 1900s. 🦖👴👵

Are you team 1900s or team 2000s?

We did the "What year were you born?" trend, and let's just say... the math is officially offensive. 😭🧮

Turns out we are just a room full of people born in the 1900s trying to look professional while our lower backs slowly give out. We might look official, but half of us are currently held together by ibuprofen and pure determination. 💪💥

Watch until the end to see the exact moment the realization hits! 👇

Do you also remember tape-recording songs off the radio or waiting for dial-up internet?! 📻💾
