I was born in 1970. Earlier tonight, I watched this video which is my favorite from the 1980s: 'Til Tuesday - Voices Carry (Official Video) - YouTube

The word "peeps" is like it's 41 years ago.

Depends on how old you are. In 1985 41 years ago was 1944. I considered that old because it was before my time. Still do. 1985? Not old. I was 31 and iived it, So I think he answer is relative to how old you are. If it was old when you were born its old. If you lived through it? Not so much.

This comes up every once in a while when people talk about Back to the Future, when in 1985, he went back to 1955 - "way way in the past, a different generation". A 2026 Marty McFly would be going back to 1996, which feels to us old people like yesterday but to a kid born in the early 2000s is referred to as "the late 1900s".

I’m 60. 1996 seems kinda goofy lol to me still, but 1985 seems old to me, and a different planet to me.

41 years ago feels like an absolute lifetime ago in terms of how the world has changed. Crazy to look back and see how much culture and tech have shifted since then, makes you really realize how fast time flies.

Late to the conversation, but man, even 10 years ago feels like 41 years ago these days. Think of what we've been through in the last 5 alone. That's a lot of once-in-a-lifetime stuff.
