I mean, we still have 14 years to go. It's not like it's 1999 and everyone is freaking out about y2k. We still have plenty of time.

That doesn't mean it's fine to wait and leave it until the last minute, but we have quite a few last minutes left at this point.

    C’est l’histoire d’un homme qui tombe d’un immeuble de 50 étages.

    Le mec, au fur et à mesure de sa chute, il se répète sans cesse pour se rassurer:
    
    "Jusqu’ici tout va bien."
    "Jusqu’ici tout va bien."
    "Jusqu’ici tout va bien..."

    Mais l’important c’est pas la chute, c’est l’atterrissage.
Tx'd:

    There's this story of a man falling off a 50 floor building. Along his fall the guy repeats to himself in comfort:

    "So far, so good"
    "So far, so good"
    "So far, so good..."

    What matters though is not the fall, but the landing.
- Hubert, in La Haine (1995), Mathieu Kassovitz
