Today if you add the year you were born and your age together, you will get 2017.

This can only happen once in 1,000 years.  WOW!

It will NEVER happen again.  In 1,000 years,if you take the year you were born and your age, it will add up to 3017 - NOT 2017.....

                   Sorry everyone!  A FB friend was just passing along a joke and I fell for it - sorry for the thread!  Didn't take the time to realize naturally you're gonna get the year by adding age and birthyear together!

Hey, do not worry about it.  I almost panic with math questions and it's all because of my third grade teacher who used to line us up for math questions and slap us on the back of our legs with a ruler, hard, if we got it wrong.

Where did you go to school?

@Lindsays Grandma

I went to elementary school in SF, it was very different than most schools in the city, more like a private school.  It was quite awhile ago, teaching was very different then.

I remember when my son was in around 3rd grade and he got in trouble because he kept saying 6x7=42.  The teacher was saying it was 44, and he kept saying no, it's not lol.  She became the principal!
