I know, it was just a joke. It's not really like our brains can have an overflow error (...yet?).

A compromise for the time keeping purists:

Set the current time to exactly 13.77 billion years (in seconds) then add the current Unix time in seconds from January 1, 1970 to maintain continuity. Just conveniently forget about the 40 million year uncertainty, it will cloud your mind.

This way we have an absolute clock that is closer to reality than from some religiously based calendar.

Until someone adds a leap second

Better idea: instead of Epoch time move it back a few months to the moon landing.
