One of the things that I am amazed by, is how expressions like these have
traversed different countries and generations. I'm not sure they have traversed
languages, but its odd and yet amazing.

I know them all, remember them all from when I was a kid - how did that happen?

Did our parents all go to the same parent school?

Blink again, and you'll kick yourself as you realise that you are thinking about
the retirement years (or setting yourself up for it, because it is happening
soon...)

I remember being a kid in primary school calculating what age I would be in the
year 2000 (the next century). Here we are, and we are already a 1/4 of the way
through it.
