Boomer are definitely a bad term to use, what's the deal with undermining people over like, 25 or what it is? They probably have more experience than those 17 years old.

They also used the term “Millennial” to refer to anybody who has far-left values (like socialism and PC censorship). I’m a millennial, and I’m on the right wing (not going to be a liberal any time within my lifetime). I also read articles written by millennial columnists (which are also all conservative).

I love tarantulas and other arachnids along with most insects and creepy crawlies.
1990s is the worst (fashion/hair etc.) aesthetic and it's kinda fun seeing youngsters in it who obviously didn't have to live thru the real deal

The Mario 64 level “Snowman Lost His Head” from Cool, Cool Mountain is not a level. In order for it to be a level, it cannot be too hard to complete, no matter how well done it is. There are a lot of other levels or missions in the 3D Mario games that fail this test, therefore they are not levels. It’s also not a level if it’s too easy or not well-done.

This is really unpopular but I think people on social media, especially on Reddit or Twitter has an extremely skewed or exaggerated view of what life is really like in the US.
I get the US isn’t doing well rn and there’s so many things that can be improved but calm down, I’m not going to instantly die stepping on a school campus lmao
And I’m saying that as a minority/POC living in a *really* conservative state. I’m not saying that living here is the best because the quality of life could be so much better, but calm down lol.

I’m going to say this here. I written this post out of frustration because of the situation at the time. Saying that a hard game is not a game for being hard sounds like what a spoiled brat would say. I should’ve thought before I posted. But then again, it was made back before game developers took programming more seriously, which explains why the game is broken.
Honestly, the rise of social media is part of the reason why we are getting more and more divided. People these days are getting more extreme. Even I have been suffering this, yet I try not to air my extreme opinions because it’s going to start a flame war. I even stated in the OP not to say extreme opinions. I can’t break my own rule.
Agree... And they have like, no perspective in writing their posts and communicating with others which is even worse.
Boomer isn't even valid anyway. The majority of the time, the "boomers" people mention are actually Gen Xers.

Circles and spirals in mind…
I don’t mind the term ‘boomer’ if it’s used correctly, but most of the time it’s not. A similar issue is that people seem to think young adults are ‘millennials’. Umm, guys, Gen Z is growing up faster than you think.
Yes! "Millennials are obsessed with tiktok and their phones, etc." While some are, yes, they're definitely mistaking gen Zs for Millennials.
Edit: I'm 26 and I'm on the "young" end of a Millennial.

Wow! Whatever you said reminded me of how fast (or how much) time has passed. When I started learning about generations (inspired by that Buzzfeed article about Class of 2018), the youngest of Millennials were around 19-20, as everyone in their 20’s are Millennials. Now, not even the top half of the 20’s age group is all Millennials. Pretty soon, I’ll start seeing people born in 2000 being legally allowed into public casinos. I turned 21 back in early 2014 (even before I joined this site). It’s interesting to learn how fast 7 years is.
Yeah I'm 28 turning 29 in a few months...and I'm definitely not a genZ'er -_-
sorry not sorry:
pets aren't your children. they're your friends, and your family sure, but not your children. I can get people calling their cat/dog/pet "baby" (I'll admit I do that every now and then) but I draw the line at calling them your child's sibling. Like why would you raise a little kid telling them that a dog is their brother/sister?? They're completely different species (and genus, family, order) and it just sounds wrong. That's insulting to both the child and the pet smh

I feel that!
My coworker's kids are 2005 babies and I instantly pictured them as children, meanwhile they're grade 9s. Time moves by too fast!

I think people forget about Gen Xers and Gen Zs.
The unneeded "war" seems to be between Millennials and Baby Boomers. Meanwhile a good chunk of boomers are in old age homes off in lala land and millennials just want to buy a house and have kids before they're 40.
People should shut up about calling out people who don’t wear masks. Anytime I’m by myself I wear a mask but sometimes I have to go out with my mother who is hard of hearing, so I can’t wear a mask around her cause she wouldn’t understand anything (from me or other people who wear masks).
Orchestral music in movies often sound the same. Strings are often suspended, sometimes arpeggiated, a choir that's chanting what I'm assuming is supposed to be Latin. I'm over it. It's gotten to the point where I'm more interested in a soundtrack with rock, hip hop, or some kind of electronically based genre. I'm not saying these are better, I'm just saying that orchestral music for movies has become monotonous.
