Someone isn't a millennial and now made me feel extra old. They really looked at a pic of the 80's and figured it was close enough.
2002 was 23 years ago, 1989 was 23 years before 2002, so the math checks out
There were 13 years between 1989 and 2002. Math does not check out.
"1989 is a decade closer to 2002 than we are now" is not the message I wanted to get from the internet today 😭
Everyone help with the math!

Ugh, time to commit sudoku
Coincidentally, in one of the reposts of this pic on Reddit the commenters identified by the billboards that the photo is in fact from 1979.
