Ages.... You young ones... (decades, yes)
Locally I am okay with it (possibly not having a choice anyway) but you got shafted post 9/11. So I was there a few times before that.
I can travel freely in the EU.
Decades is ages for most human beings 😁
I'm not an American but yeah that bs sure creeped over here after 2001.
Edit: you still need an ID (like a passport) to travel in the EU, it's just that no one cares if you don't take the plane or go to sweden.
I have my Personalausweis and Reisepass but sometimes don't even need it when being checked in, depending from which country to which. It's strange sometimes.
Ah yes I actually had to look up the definition of ages with the translation. For me it subjectively differs in the meaning with the German translation so you're right, it just means a long time. For me ages is more akin to ancient 😁 so I might need to rectify that.
Welcome to the club of the ancient 😁!
Yes, thanks!
