I was complaining to a Gen Z’er about the price of McDonalds and they go, “Well actually you can get the ‘real’ price by downloading the app” and I couldn’t figure out how to explain to them that all of this was bullshit loopholes in the past 10 years. All the convenience fees, service fees, download the app, nickeling and dime bullshit has conditioned young people to believe that it’s okay to accept this shit.

I think constantly about how my grandparents and their generation were the ones keeping the stupid at bay.
My existential adult fear now is that I’ll die, go to heaven, and have to explain all this to my grandparents while looking them in the eye.
