If you were born in 1983 or before, your birthday is closer to WWII than to today.

We know. WWII was a pretty ever-present event in culture back then. Lots of movies and TV shows about it, and of course all of our grandparents fought in WWII.

Yup. My kids are learning about it in school, and they regard it about how we regarded the civil war. Like dude, that was really fucked up, but it was a long time ago.

Well it turns out it wasn't that long ago, and now we've had an insurrection in your lifetime so, ...probably some good lessons in there.

Mine is closer to WWI than to today, unless my aged brain has failed at math.

That one somehow isn't as weird. I guess it's because the 100 years since WW1 was fairly recently and obviously everyone who was over 50 at the time was born closer to WW1 than today.
