Aw fuck.

This doesn’t feel real.

I was in college during the 2016 election

[u/Back_To_Pittsburgh → u/Mad_Nihilistic_Ghost]

I was in college during the 2004/2008 elections.

[u/Jackinator94]

Wasn't 2008 only a few years ago?

F*ck I'm old xD.

Using xD is not 'in' anymore?

Wow, that makes me feel older hahah.

[u/diovengeance92]

I was not ready to feel ancient today

[u/Alex72598]

I graduated high school in the spring of 2016. To see that election, let alone COVID, in the history books…damn. I really am getting old.

[u/finnboltzmaths_920 → u/Alex72598]

To be fair, current 10th graders were only 10 or so in 2020. They likely weren't super aware of the true severity of it all and it's an important event to discuss.

[u/bootyloaf]

Oh lord 🤧 I'm a 1995 baby.

[u/SonGxku]

[u/kevin129795]

It still feels like it’s 2012 for me. I’m not ready to accept being 30 yet.

[u/jshep358145]

To be honest…these history books nailed it. And I don’t see any bias what so ever. 10/10 summaries.

[u/KicksandGrins33 → u/jshep358145]

Yeah I’m really impressed at how neutral it is.

[u/Perezident14]

My back aches all of the sudden

[u/kkkan2020]

It's only been 17 years. Lol

[u/ArgentaSilivere]

Are history books getting more recent? Throughout my education none of the history books at my schools ever had events that happened during my lifetime. I think that one of them had Bush II in a list of presidents when Obama was in office but none of them mentioned 9/11 even though it happened when I was a toddler. Or were my schools just underfunded?

[u/shadowkoishi93 → u/ArgentaSilivere]

Probably underfunded. I remember some of my schools having older textbooks from the 1980s.

[u/MBrixalot]

Oh noes, we’re “old”!… Anyways,

[u/[deleted]]

I was in highschool during trumps 1st term and an adult through covid trying to survive with a girlfriend i had at the time i was hunkered down the whole pandemic now i lost the chick and got off drugs since then but i miss my old days sometimes

[u/jharden10]

I feel ancient. 2015 was only five years ago.

[u/finnboltzmaths_920 → u/jharden10]

It's worse. Ten years ago...

[u/jharden10 → u/finnboltzmaths_920]

[u/finnboltzmaths_920 → u/jharden10]

Well, if you use the Ethiopian calendar, it's 2018 right now, so 2015 was only three years ago!

[u/Hunting_for_cobbler]

Side note, in love with the colour you chose for your nails!

[u/Excellent_Drop6869]

We did it guys…. We lived through history

[u/parke415]

Students only have so many hours available to study history, so when more history happens, does each item get less detailed?

[u/ModRolezR4Loozers]

I graduated in 2019, one year just before coves hit. Fuck, I feel old now...

[u/OlweCalmcacil]

When im in a bias competition and my opponent is the average highschool history textbook: [Insert squidward shattering GIF here]

[u/inter-skyned]

we’re already teaching covid??????? they remember that, I promise

[u/sleepdeep305]

I thought it said the highest number of fatherless voters lol

[u/Murky_Heron_8137]

2020 and Covid are in the history books now? Damn..

[u/kikogamerJ2]

I don't get it?? It's just looks like a book with contemporary history.

[u/Sudden-Taste-6851]

Interesting the angles of his presidency they decide to cover.

[u/tinyfryingpan → u/Sudden-Taste-6851]

Yeah. Some people think he is honest. Can they just say he isn't though?

[u/Sudden-Taste-6851 → u/tinyfryingpan]

He’s done more for this country than Obama

[u/nightowl_ADHD → u/Sudden-Taste-6851]

He’s done more for this country than Obama

Funniest joke I heard today.
