  • I've heard that phrase my whole life and only looked it up now because of your comment. For anyone else that's curious:

    "Let them eat cake" is the traditional translation of the French phrase "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche",[1] said to have been spoken in the 18th century by "a great princess" upon being told that the peasants had no bread.

    ...

    The quote is taken to reflect either the princess's frivolous disregard for the starving peasants or her poor understanding of their plight.

  • Totally!

    Thread OP, kinda like it's easier to do the math when trying to remember your age or the year something happened in reference to one another.

    "I remember I was 12 when I got braces", so they know the year was 2012 when they got braces...

    ...which is easier than having to calculate:

    • I was born in 1993
    • so, 2000 - 1993 = 7
    • and, 12 - 7 = 5
    • 2000 + 5 = 2005 is when they got braces.
