One of my oldest friends’ oldest daughter— go ahead, parse it, it makes sense, although I have to admit I’m not a hundred percent sure where that apostrophe should be, or if “friends” should be plural in the first place– just accepted a college offer. Also, earlier today I made reference to an old movie, and a student asked me if it came out in “the nineteens.”

I’m going to go to bed, and crumble into dust, and not worry about any of this any longer.
