As a 20 something this makes me so excited to be alive.

“I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies:

1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.

2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.

3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.”

― Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt

That's really a characteristic of being 20 (with the "this" being different things of different people). Good for everybody that manages to keep the feeling later as well, but it is definitely easier at 20...
