the other day I (26F) was talking to one of my younger friends (19M) and said ironically, "It'll be 'poppin'. Do kids these days still say that" and he didn't know I was being facetious and he said, "no not really" and quickly changed the subject.
that's how it happens. this is what it's like to feel old and out of touch.

The sphinx, a mythical being with the head of a human and the body of a lion, was discovered at the Kom Ombo temple, where two engraved sandstone reliefs of King Ptolemy V had also recently been found, the ministry said in statement.
Ptolemaic rule spanned about three centuries until the Roman conquest in 30 BC.
