"the world as you know it" is a terribly minimized statement that is likely completely different for everyone, even the people you know best, because you can never truly know how someone perceives things, amirite?
That's why it's "the world as we know it". Our collective agreement on 'how things are' when we wake up everyday, regardless of our individual circumstances, IS the world ... as we know it.
