About

If You’re Ever Sad, Just Remember the World Is 4.543 Billion Years Old and You Somehow Managed To Exist at the Same Time As X refers to a snowclone and exploitable template that jokes about luckily existing during the same time as a major invention, event or person. The phrasal template was originally used in a tweet by a Justin Bieber fan and then soon after for a David Bowie tweet.

On November 5th, 2015, the tweet was included in a Billboard YouTube[2] video called, "Justin Bieber reads fan Sweet Tweets," gaining over 1.1 million views in nine years (shown below). The tweet is the first one that Bieber reads in the segment.
