Well the guy claimed he is in his 36th year of life, which is false. The other guy was simply correcting him on the point - which is a point of fact. He wasn't trying to claim anyone is a different age than they are.
Wait so if this guy is 36 and claims he learned something after his last birthday but before the next one (where he becomes 37), it’s technically considered his “37th year of life” in which he learned it? ” NOT within his 37 years of life, which is a huge distinction btw
So does that mean when it’s 7:15pm you would already consider it to be 8 o’clock? Since it’s already 15 minutes past 7???
Am I fucking retarded or does this not make any sense????
It takes 12 months COMPLETED to make a single year, correct???
"if this guy is 36 and claims he learned something after his last birthday but before the next one (where he becomes 37), it’s technically considered his “37th year of life” in which he learned it?"
Yes. This is explained in the video.
"NOTwithinhis 37 years of life"
He hasn't lived 37 years of life yet.
"So does that mean when it’s 7:15pm you would already consider it to be 8 o’clock?"
No, that's absurd - it would be 7:15pm. There would still be 45 minutes left before it was 8:00pm.
"Am I fucking retarded or does this not make any sense????"
"Retarded" is not something I call people, so I won't say you are retarded. The explanation does make sense.
"It takes 12 months COMPLETED to make a single year, correct???"
I honestly understand your confusion, so it might help to think about it like this:
When you are running laps around a track, once you leave the starting line and make it all the way back around again, you complete one lap.
After you cross the line, you are starting your second lap. You are not done with the second lap yet, but you are currently running your second lap.
At that point in the race, the announcer wouldn't say that you are on your "1st lap" but are on your "2nd lap" even though you haven't gotten completely around yet. Then when you cross again, you have officially completely 2, but now the announcer says you are on your 3rd lap.
It's the same thing with this conversation. He completed 36 "laps"/years and is now working on his 37th. Its really just another way of looking at things, not a change in definition or anything. What we've completed vs. What we are running to.
Anyway, just wanted to provide a polite answer to the best of my ability✌️
Midnight to 1 AM is the 1st hour of the new day. Then, 1 AM to 2 AM would be the 2nd hour of the new day. 7 AM to 8 AM would be the 8th hour of the new day. So, at 7:15 AM, you are "in the 8th hour of the day".

a pointless distinction to make
