And I’ll even say, I don’t want to flip burgers. The thing I want to do most is my job, and other people can do other jobs. I feel like there’s always this fear, oh, who will do the skilled/educated jobs! Like, smart folks will not suddenly be like “Eh, I don’t want to be a doctor anymore because people can survive on flipping burgers.”

The US’s best export, so to speak, is it’s money. People in the US buy more than anywhere. It has a larger consumer market than EU, China, and India combined. That’s ridiculous to think about, a country of 350m outspending 3.5b. As much as I can’t stand trump and think everything is wrong, leveraging the US and it’s buying power is a tactic that makes sense. I wouldn’t even be mad if it was just part of some negotiation, but it coupled with obviously all the rest of the shit kinda changes the light that it’s shown in.

Yeah, I never became a lol’er, dunno whether or of spite or what, but haha was my go-to response for someone said something that I’m supposed to express some reaction of humor to. Heh sometimes. Ha has a different feel to it.

Yeah, I tell my kids all the time that without winter, summer just isn’t as enjoyable, and that even in late August and early September I’ll say, you know what, I’m ready to change it up. I don’t have this expectation of perfection from any facet of life, including my kids and the relationship I have with them. The bads and the goods are all part of the experience, and to me the experience is rewarding.
But I absolutely don’t fault someone for wanting perpetual summer. Summer is great.
- Comment on What is a game you can’t understand why its so popular ? 1 week ago:
Yeah, I just tell my kids that we aren’t getting them Roblox. The only concession I made was letting my daughter get some for dress to impress vip, and for the couple bucks she spent there, she’s logged enough hours to make it feel like it wasn’t a waste. I tell them absolutely not to spending money on anything that’s not persistent, or to anything that’s “cheating,” because what’s the point.
Generally agree with everything you said, a lot of rehashing, although they’ve sucked me into the “obby” games, as I grew up on platformers and still enjoy them, and so I’ll give their silly platformer a try here and there. It sucks when they’re just reskinned. My son also likes to play the horror games with me, and it’s incredible how many different version of roadside stand with anomalies there is.

Me and some buddies always would use a similar excuse, so and so is having a tough time, we’re going to hang with him. It worked double, sometimes we were just trying to get out and drink some beers, but also you didn’t have to come out and say if you were actually having a tough time. Sometimes hanging with buddies and a few beers is the medicine you need.

Shotty the stupid half. It’s just easier.
- Comment on Boomer comics 2 weeks ago:
Yeah it comes down to the fact that the boomers were the largest generation for 54 years, their reign ending in 2019. So they played a large role in getting us to this fucked up place. And now Millennials are the largest generation, and we need to figure out how to unfuck it.

Yeah, I look back and think about how I kinda got lucky that they were just the things I was looking for versus some scary shit, but there was a good decade where I got plenty for free. And I’m a dude.

Some of the smartest people I know have massive gaps in their intellect. I like to say I know a lot about a little but a little about a lot. Some people know a lot about a lot, but nothing about a little, and it shows.

- Comment on Honestly impressive how pharmacies are able to find a new type of problem every time I go to pick up my meds 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t need to get this upset before 8am. I don’t even take medications, but this is the exact type of nonsense that gets my blood boiling. That there’s anyone between a patient and their doctor (or perhaps a patient and a pharmacist) is just screaming for some forced changes.

I used to go on Nextdoor; I said it was because I liked to be connected to the neighborhood, but if was really for the drama, and one time this woman came in spewing some nonsense, her name was Paula, and another poster comes in and says “That’s not how life works, Paula, you absolute buffoon, go back to Facebook,” and so, since then, I’ve called many, many people absolute buffoons.

I got poison ivy pretty bad one time, and discovered that very hot water in the shower directly on the rash is one of the best things I’ve ever felt. And it also completely stops the itch for like 12h.
- Comment on Test ride 1 month ago:
Had a friend in Philly who had his bike stolen. Custom paint job, BMX, it was his bike, no doubt about it. He knows who stole it too, sees a shady character every day, and eventually sees him riding it. He yells at the dude, that’s my bike, and I’m going to get it back.
One day he sees it chained up to a sign. Happens to be right near a hardware store, and goes in, gives the worker his phone as collateral for some bolt cutters, goes out, cuts the chain off, and takes his bike back.
This all happened while we were at a party at his house, and he walks in all triumphant, it was pretty spectacular shit.

- Comment on Post title lol 1 month ago:
But plenty of millennials did for sure. I’m 1987, was never a loler myself, but am certainly familiar enough with it.
And admittedly, I have used it. My buddy and I used to sit in his room playing red alert 2, and one of us would do something dumb and the other would type “lol,” and then look across the room with a straight face. So I always imagined someone typing lol to be doing so with a completely straight face, the complete opposite of laughing out loud.

In the words of my good friend Timmy: What’s going to happen to you?
That stupid question resulted in some fun nights. And also some uncomfortable nights.
