Numbers are sometimes big. And it is hard to imagine.

There were wooly mammoths alive 1000 years after the Great Pyramid was built.

The year 1900 seems like a different reality but in the grand scheme of things the time back to it was it was nothing. If you could go back to then with your iPhone you could take a high definition color picture.

Plus we are in the beginning age of the Universe. And your 75-80 years is half a blink.

Oxford University is older than the Aztec Empire.

New Orleans isn't even in the top ten oldest cities in the US>

You're going to need to explain/justify this sentence so it doesn't sound as fricking idiotic as it reads.
