Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

He said the grampa was the last to be born in the 1900's. Not that they had a childhood in the 1900's. Then they're ask about the person's experiences growing up in the 90's. They're don't assert he had any.
And they wouldn't. The last person born in the 1900's was probably someone born a few seconds to midnight. I remember there being several competitions or promotions (on national levels, not global so timezones don't really come into it in most countries) or some such for the first kid born in the new millenium.
Nah actually it was on a global level as well, my bad. Here's an image of the google.com search to see some headlines so you don't need to bother
The point being that because a lot of people were aiming for midnight at new years, and you have to start the project 9 months earlier, there'd have been quite a lot of "just a little too early". Definitely more born in the days 30.12.1999-02.01.2000 than 30.12.1995-02.01.1996, I would wager. (I don't have the data on that but one would imagine it's available at least in parts.)
