TIL Win98 was out in the early '90s....

That's because the joke got updated to the newest OS version until CONFIG.SYS got entirely removed in Windows ME and it just didn't work any more.
It's originally from MS-DOS times. Earliest telling of it I know of is from 1996.

The 60's happened in the 70's.

The 70's happened in the 80's.

You get where I'm going here?

I think so. The 2010-2020s happened in the 1930-1940s, amirite?
