The entire teenage population changes every five years.

All the dogs in the world have been replaced in the 33 years since I was born
- :(
- 😰With what??
- I wasn't ready to realize this
- Most human artistic output isn't about or geared towards dogs tho (sadly).
- Surely there's an outlier. A record-breaking "oldest" dog older than-- Nope
13 .. 14 .. 15 .. 16 .. 17 .. 18 .. 19
Pretty sure that you're a teenager for seven years, not five.
- But after 19 teenage pregnancy drops to Zero!
  I wonder how it is in countries that doesn't have the "teen" in the numbers.
  
  Most other languages count that group as "youths" and in general you are one from 12-18.
I'm gonna have to disagree with you here. 18- and 19-year-olds are still teens. say what you will about being adults, but semantically (if nothing else) they are still teens.
- changes every six-seven years then...
- That is certainly the logic that porn sites use.
Chronological sure..
You would not believe the number of worthless fucks there are who are teenagers who just grew old..
- As someone who has been thirty years old for the past five years, I resent your disqualifying tone.
The amount of people younger than you is ever growing, and the amount of people older than you is shrinking.
- We're all constantly falling to our deaths through the fourth dimension
- 🤯
Sucks they get executed when they turn 18 though.
OP, get a couple more brain cells and learn how to count
In 120 years the earth will be all new people. That scares my kids. Makes me hopeful.
- This is what makes experienced history so extremely short.
  In general, people have a somewhat ok understanding of how their grandparents lived, and they might know a few stories about their great-grandparents, maybe one more generation after that, but that where it ends and where history books with dates and numbers begin.
  That's where you get statements like "In the past people did/believed/were like/... X" from. No, your grandparents did/believed/were like/... X, not all people in the past.
- Or we crack the code to repair damage caused by aging.
  
  There is just about zero chance that those changes would filter down to the masses, so hopefully that doesn't happen. I don't want billionaires to live forever, that would be some real life vampire shit.
- And machines will stay the same. That's why they are superior.
  
  I challenge you to find a 120yo machine near you that is in working condition.
but also not at once, the youngest are influenced by those older than them, and in tuen influence yet new teens. Its causes an endless shift of culture.
The teenagers of Theseus
