What's a negative years span?

[-] FizzlePopBerryTwist@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Like 50 years BC = 50 years before Christ. Well, there's a negative span of years before you fused in to an individual.

I think you could've worded that better, but even then, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense, since you don't exist before you're born, so "negative lifespan" is a weird thing to say.

But fun fact, genetically female babies develop all their egg cells while still inside the womb, so at some point the egg cell that became you was inside your grandma.

That or a convoluted “Yo dawg, we heard you like eggs”

You do exist, but your existence is different. Your individuality doesn't exist. You are potential individuality.

You are the continuation of other cellular organisms' lives.

It took me more than a minute to figure out what you meant, but good point.

If you live your life backwards, you split up in to two people.
