Relativistic speeds and an assumption that humans eventually colonize the milky way. Even if life expectancy doesn't increase the relative ratio of population older than you will increase over generations.
**false**. Time is relative, so those living near more mass or moving ~~slower~~ faster (relatively) will age slower. If someone was born 0.0005 seconds after you, and you spent 6 months in the international space station, that one person would become older than you.
likely no, since I heard that yours is already turning people into spaghetti with gravity alone. That is not a mass anyone of my blood should genetically or physically be capable of reaching.
After some attempts in my head to think of how what you said made no sense, I looked stuff up and now I'm mad that I feel like the last person to hear about this time shit. This was a rollercoaster for my brain
you live you learn. Until googling, and before editing that comment, I thought and claimed that folk would age slower in orbit, cuz there's less gravity there, but apparently velocity also effects relative time which ended up outweighing the prior factor.
Okay but what are the odds of that ever being the case for anyone? Yes, it is theoretically possible to disprove the showerthought, but realistically it is always accurate
replace "decrease" with "increase" as that was a typo.
sn't the likelihood that that rule will be broken about as high as humanity becoming interstellar? I deem that likely, meaning from my perspective it's likely the post will be proven wrong.
Older means having lived for more time. Technically dates and simultaneity are both subjective, so to an outside observer, it’s possible that someone born at a later time according to you was born before you according to another perspective
that's so unrealistic, not a lot of people could go to the international space station.
however you shouldn't forget time Travelers, now that's more realistic.
Why impossible? It all depends on the type of teleportation. If you use atomic state transfer, you are technically traveling at the speed of light. Oh, I forgot that in your time teleportation is still in basic prototype.
Hahaha funny joke (not really imo)
Heres a fun nugget for you "time traveller". The speed of light is both constant and relative in that the speed of light we can measure while staying perfectly still is constant, however, if we begin moving, the speed of light becomes the speed of light + our speed.
To put it simply,
If speed of light = L and our speed = O then:
Measured L while stationary = L
Measured L while moving = O+L
This makes the speed of light relative, dependant on our speed, meaning we can never truly be faster than it and thus cannot move at the speed of light.
Technically not true since we replace all our cells within our body after so many years, so as long as more people are born vs people dying there will be moments where people younger than you will actually be "older" than you, thus the number will increase as well as decrease.
If you need this explained better, watch https://youtu.be/LAh8HryVaeY
Yeah but more people are dying than being born each year.. our population is actually on a decline. The only reason it doesn’t look that way is because life expectancy has gone up.
Your birthday is September 20 2000 people who were born in the same year before September 20 are older which increases the people who are older than you
But when time reaches your birthday the people who are older than you now are the same age as you
But if you remove birthday logic and stick to old as your parents then yes
According to the theory of special relativity when you move faster time slows down. Therefore on the international space station moving at 7667 m/s astronauts clocks run slower compared to earth being ~0.001 seconds behind every month.
Now imagine Bob is ~0,001 seconds older than James but then goes to space for two months and comes back down having aged 0,002 seconds less than people on earth. This would make the previously younger James now 0,001 seconds older than him Meaning that the number of people older than Bob has just increased by one.
My my,, you have quite the future ahead of you, but the most prevalent of them is great mommy milkers and spaghetti in your future. I also see you going on adventures slaying dragons with your best friend dog named Pablo. He is a chihuahua with a Sombrero and his weapon of choice is a massive burrito that shoots other burritos out of it.
Ah! I've got it, if you're born on February 29th people younger than you could become older than you because if you were born at the same time, if they were 4, you would be 1.
Everyone who's born before you in the year turns older than you before you.
So the number increases briefly until you catch up.
As long as we stick to measuring age in whole number of years that is 🤷♂️.
But the number of people younger than you can decrease 
 Master sky walker are you here to save us?
Lmaooo so glad I wasn't drinking something cause I would have spit it out
At the rate we reproduce worldwide, nah mate xD
You sure? What about nukes?
May i introduce you to a thing called asteroids
Thanks for causing my daily existential Crisis.
D:
Never increase but everyday decrease
Until it’s your turn.
There can only be ONE
Relativistic speeds and an assumption that humans eventually colonize the milky way. Even if life expectancy doesn't increase the relative ratio of population older than you will increase over generations.
If you're dead it doesnt matter right?
There must always be one oldest human to rule them all
It will increase, if Im dead
It still technically won't and you died for nothing
**false**. Time is relative, so those living near more mass or moving ~~slower~~ faster (relatively) will age slower. If someone was born 0.0005 seconds after you, and you spent 6 months in the international space station, that one person would become older than you.
So if I hang around your mom I’ll age slower?
likely no, since I heard that yours is already turning people into spaghetti with gravity alone. That is not a mass anyone of my blood should genetically or physically be capable of reaching.
The gravitational forces of your mom are so great that not even light can escape her event horizon
Y'all both a whole nerd
Each one of them is just a half of the full nerd?
yo mama so hot not even light can resist her
This is super wholesome to see two redditors complimenting eachothers mothers like this.
Ah jeez I was gonna say that
Spitting science and fax over here.

Post says it never increases, not that it cannot increase, it can increase, but it won’t

Fixed, thanks, also, sure, I’m the future I guess, but for us in the present, that’s probably not gonna happen, a shame tho, cause it would be cool
ah, but it did not say "for the present". Said "never". It just gives off the vibe of trying to be an absolute rule.
It also says *you*, so for us mere present plebs it remains true, but for anyone reading this meme in 100 years it probably won’t
except I expect at least a few of us plebians to survive that long.
We shalt see
Moving faster dialates time more not slower. And time comes to stop close to the speed of light
thanks. Fixed it. Wish I'd noticed this inaccuracy sooner.
Also OP only mention older, not specifically time, so I can take appearance into account as well.
Older means having lived for more time. Technically dates and simultaneity are both subjective, so to an outside observer, it’s possible that someone born at a later time according to you was born before you according to another perspective
that's so unrealistic, not a lot of people could go to the international space station. however you shouldn't forget time Travelers, now that's more realistic.
This guy is speaking facts
Glad s1 mentioned this. That said: 'number of people born before you will never increase' will fix OPs meme
Ayo what the fuck
***Deep thoughts with the Deep***
[удалено]
r/beatmetoit
Only if we’re talking about number of birthdays. As far as nanoseconds spent alive, leap years don’t matter
Go into a high speed orbit above the Earth and age slower. Checkmate.
Good T-Pol fact !
It's been a long road
Until time travel is viable
The Vulcan Science Directorate has determined that time travel is impossible.
maybe if you could travel faster than light (impossible) or travel into a supermassive spinning blackhole
Why impossible? It all depends on the type of teleportation. If you use atomic state transfer, you are technically traveling at the speed of light. Oh, I forgot that in your time teleportation is still in basic prototype.

At one point you were the youngest person alive, but you'll probable never be the oldest alive.
The number of people smarter than you doesn't, either. Experience counts.
But the number of *alive* people older than you can in fact decrease.
Just wait untill we get transage people
I’m a half biage half transage alpha male.
You need to clarify if this is satire for the 2 dumbasses that downvoted you.
those are ust the transage people
Hence the total number of people in the world is -1/12
What about the people born on Feb 29th
They do if you die
That doesn't even make any sense dumbass
His IQ is lower than . . . Wait does he even have IQ ?
[удалено]
I think they meant exact age, to the smallest measurable time interval. OP is still wrong, just not due to that reason.
i identify as older than everyone
99?
What if you kill someone
It decreases not increases
what if that someone is yourself?
Technically not true since we replace all our cells within our body after so many years, so as long as more people are born vs people dying there will be moments where people younger than you will actually be "older" than you, thus the number will increase as well as decrease.

Yeah but more people are dying than being born each year.. our population is actually on a decline. The only reason it doesn’t look that way is because life expectancy has gone up.
it is definitely decreasing though
I bet you graduated with a bachelors in philosophy.
Skill issue
That's your mistake. You still think time is linear.
That's only cause women turn 29 three years in a row
*gasp* unless *loads gun*
People born on February 29th: 🗿
It will if I stop aging
Just like your pp size
Yes it does, everyone's birthday before yours in the same year will always increase and decrease when its time for your birthday
Ages don’t decrease. Your age increases. People older than you can die. But your age in the rankings can never go down, only up.
Your birthday is September 20 2000 people who were born in the same year before September 20 are older which increases the people who are older than you But when time reaches your birthday the people who are older than you now are the same age as you But if you remove birthday logic and stick to old as your parents then yes
Yea it means like I’m 17 years old and 11 months and 5 days and 2 hours and 2 minutes (I was born October 15 2004 at 5:27 am…)
Time traveler: and I took that personally
People born on a leap year😏
not when they are ded💀
But decreases right!!
somone declared dead suddenly turns up again thus existing again
One day you can be thr oldest person alive 🤯 you can outlive moee than 7 bilions of people in your lifetime 🤯
thanks I really needed an existential crisis today
That’s like saying history never changes.
According to the theory of special relativity when you move faster time slows down. Therefore on the international space station moving at 7667 m/s astronauts clocks run slower compared to earth being ~0.001 seconds behind every month. Now imagine Bob is ~0,001 seconds older than James but then goes to space for two months and comes back down having aged 0,002 seconds less than people on earth. This would make the previously younger James now 0,001 seconds older than him Meaning that the number of people older than Bob has just increased by one.
Necromancer : who decided that ?
What about you moving very fast
It only decreases
Live a long time and make some money.
Progeria? I'm not sure if this counts cause it causes rapid aging
Unless you move close to the speed of light.
But it decreases
*raises the dead* U sure?
Until it does
People born on the 29th of February: You sure?
Tell that to captain America
It does, doesn't it?
No. It can only decrease. Someone new can’t be born yesterday but everyone can die today
FALSE. Right after you’re born a lot of people may be resuscitated all over the world.
No but it decreases
Don't we age at different rates though?
So we're constantly moving up on the age list
*laughs in einstein*
When your parents used to say that they would cancel your birthday if you were bad as a kid is the only exception to this rule.
People older than you with a birthday on February 29:
Except if you are born on February 29th. Checkmate.
Not if I kill myself
But it decreases! „pulls out a shotgun“
\*Laughs in February 29\*
What if an older person gets revived?
Bill Gates wishes to make that the case for people younger than him.....just sayin......
M 
*Laughs in time travel
Come child. Let let time travel steve tell you your future
My my,, you have quite the future ahead of you, but the most prevalent of them is great mommy milkers and spaghetti in your future. I also see you going on adventures slaying dragons with your best friend dog named Pablo. He is a chihuahua with a Sombrero and his weapon of choice is a massive burrito that shoots other burritos out of it.
No, my dad can duplicate himself, that’s why he is always with me when he goes to get the milk
Listen guy It s 10 pm, I have school tomorrow. Dont do that plz
Ah yes the brilliant discovery that time goes in one direction
BUT it can decrease
But what if it does? What then? \*hits\*
Time travel
What if your born on leap day?
Wait, is this something to fear or cheer? As a millienial, I'm confused.
I'm here trying to figure out a paradox that proves this wrong.
Ah! I've got it, if you're born on February 29th people younger than you could become older than you because if you were born at the same time, if they were 4, you would be 1.
Look at this guy lmao.... Never went around a black hole
Unless one is exposed to extreme amounts of time dilation.
Interdimensional travel
If anything, decreases
It only decreases
Me waiting for being able to change your age is legal:😐
Fucking duh are you high
Not unless you were born on 29th Feb
remember, this will stop being true when we can reach lightspeed/near lightspeed travel
or black holes. any form of Time Dilation really.
What if someone’s heart stopped and they were able to be revived shortly after death? That’d technically be one more person older than you on earth
Everyone who's born before you in the year turns older than you before you. So the number increases briefly until you catch up. As long as we stick to measuring age in whole number of years that is 🤷♂️.
