I'm most familiar with this when it comes up as the double whammy of condescension and illogic:
I've experienced X. You haven't experienced X
yet
. Therefore when you grow up enough to experience X you'll realize I'm right.
I consider it imposing your narrative of progress on other people. With my friends it's shorthand, now-- "Sorry for narrative-of-progressing you."
