The internal screaming is practically audible! Physics majors everywhere are clutching their calculators in pain because a light-year is distance, not time. It's like saying "I'll be there in 3 kilometers" or measuring your weight in decibels. A light-year is specifically the distance light travels in one year (about 9.46 trillion kilometers). Next time you want to see a physics student's soul leave their body, just casually mention how many light-years until your birthday.
