Remember that great Sci-Fi Trilogy called, THE MATRIX ?
Yeah...great production and symbolism, etc., etc.

Well, friends, that happened over 20 years ago!!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matrix

Yep, 2 decades have gone by and you chose to take the RED PILL instead...Oh well...
How's the simulation going for you so far? 

[LOCKSUIT]

I feel 20 years isn't enough, still fresh..maybe 40 years

""the One", an especially powerful human prophesied to free humans and end the war."

lol


The best bit is the Agents omg lol


"While rescuing Morpheus, Neo gains confidence in his abilities, performing feats comparable to the Agents'"

omg awesome!!!

How old where you when the Matrix was released Lock... 3 years?

Now I feel old... lol

 

Ed: When I was 3 Mr Armstrong was bouncing around the moon, I have socks older than you Lock.

Korr! Let's not go there...shall we? For one thing, I'm older than you and for two, uh...that atmosphere isn't breathable so I'd rather not go there.
And for three or fifty-three...well, those are just numbers and they're kind of abstract so nope...not going there either. Time marches on...

I was a fresh uni student 20 years ago.  yup, about right.

And also 20 years ago, was doom 3,  by my memory.

I’m not doing years anymore, once a year I’m going to celebrate my mileage.

When all the various distances for the Earths rotation, movement through Solar System, Milky Way, etc are summed we moving at approx 800 km/s, so we each travel approximately 25 billion km per year.

That means I’ve travelled 1.3 trillion (ish) km so far… our nearest neighbour star is Alpha Centauri @ 41.32 trillion km just for reference.

Very cool and good advice.

Just remember it's not the years, it's the mileage!

Imagine a future of going to a person's funeral...
Yes, friends, he was a good man and it's a shame that he left us having such low mileage. He still had tread left on those shoes!

Old? How old would you feel if you still had the movie posters on your wall?



Every morning I wake up and thank Neo I've been freed from the Matrix.

Have you seen the youtube video where they postulate that Agent Smith was really The One?

[Korrelan]

Odd spacing for posters, you either have very few posters or a very large house lol.

I took the blue & red striped pill... I'm not quite sure where I am...

 

[ruebot]

It covers most of one wall. I had to work around that "Help! I've fallen and I can't get up!" thingy but used a tape measure so they're the exact same distance from the ceiling and each other.

[Korrelan]

If you pull the cord perhaps you get de-rezzed and sucked/ uploaded out of this matrix and into 'actual reality'.

Go On... Pull it an see... lol.

 

[goaty]

lucky! cool posters!

[OllieGee]

Yea I don't feel old about this at all, just grateful I was at the perfect age to enjoy it... (25 ish...)
And I enjoy it just as much now when I have my annual re-watch of it... It's still very fresh in my eyes.

[ruebot]

Jack in and ready yourself for The Matrix 4 coming to a pseudo-theatre near you 5-21-2021. I knew keeping the posters from 1-3 would pay off eventually.

I don't normally patronize Hollywood but will see it anyway. There is no spoon...

Edit: Changed date of release. Not everyone got to see it in 2012.
