Hating something in general because it's popular is lame. I love The Beatles!!
Yeah I wonder how many kids actually delved somewhat into their discography or just think it's grandpa music or whatever.
Yeah they're great!
Legit! My Dad loves music and he's from the late 50s and onward so I like chatting with him about music from back then. There are great artists that are waiting to be discovered! I've learned to never dismiss something because it's "old."

If anything I think old stuff is way better lol
That's prob why I spend so much time in antique stores

Yeah, the early stuff is a mixed bag. If I Fell is one of my favorite The Beatles songs. But then there's This Boy, which despite having the usual beautiful The Beatles harmonies was the stereotypical "He's a bad boy, I'm a Nice Guy, so date me instead!" nonsense. Yuck.
I listened to modern rock/pop up until the mid 2000s. I can't listen to the stuff nowadays (not the mainstream stuff anyway). You're right, it's just electronic pop, which just I'm sorry to say sounds like "noise" to me. I'm not sure what exactly got me looking back into my parents' generation's music, but I'm very glad I did. I love music from the 60s and 70s. They used actual instruments and vocals back then. What a novel concept, or so you'd think if all you'd heard was today's pop with all of its noisy synths, autotune and other cringe.

9/10 times, the older furniture lasts longer than the new stuff nowadays. Especially appliances.
We have a tv from the 80s and it works brand new. Meanwhile a tv I bought back in 2008 only lasted us 2 years before legit coughing up smoke.

I think many people from the younger generation try to pigeonhole The Beatles as a product of 60's counterculture and conflicts.They don't really pay attention to the music itself.What they did is amazing considering the relatively short time they were together as a creative force.I've always been partial to their "middle period"which included Rubber Soul,Revolver and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band but they did much of their best stuff after this(specifically,The White Album).
Yeah, I do like them because they later on became kinda counter-culture actually, but yeah most of their stuff are great. Also yeah people hating on hippies because they think 100% are like Manson sect people or whatever *rolls eyes* Or just people that hang on tumblr sharing baking powder no poo recipes... Like no that is not even hippie..please. And going all hormone free or whatever. Feel free to but don't hate on people who use like, bc pills or other stuff.. do they even know sexual revolution history?
Tumblr is just filled with angsty teenagers thinking they're better than everyone else. There are good "sides" to Tumblr but in general it's just a pit of low self esteem teenagers pretending they know everything and are the best. It's a mess lol
yeah especially certain communities
also yeah i stopped caring about modern stuff in the 2010s or such, there were some good bands but they changed style and sounds so yeah not good anymore

The new ones don't fit well with the older ones.
I'm sorry but I've never liked them.
The teeny bopper stuff.
Give me something I can bang my head to.

Too many people get pets they aren't willing/able to care for. Birds and fish are the biggest ones, when I got my birds from a rescue I had to go to several classes before I could even begin the adoption process because the require so much time, work, and paitence. It was way more than I thought at first. Birds are absoutly worth it, but it makes me cringe hearing litle kids wanting one because most people don't realize it's an entire lifestyle change.
PETS ARE NOT ACCESSORIES! I REPEAT, PETS ARE NOT ACCESSORIES!
If you want that "cute bird," then get a plushie of it.
(Saying to the general public, not to you specifically lol I'm agreeing with you)

It just amazes me how much people underestimate the needs of small animal pets. I had birds growing up, but I never made the connection that we used a certain cookware set and didn't have candles/air fresheners in the house because we had birds. I just thought that was my moms preference.
It costs me a fortune, but my cat is on a special diet to help stop furballs. She doesn't have long hair, but it's fine and she seems to be neverending with the molting, and would throw up every day.
Now she's on the royal canin she hardly throws up at all.
It costs more than human food. LOL, but we all have certain dietary needs. me being diabetic, I avoid certain things, and the cat needs her special food.
I take care of her like I take care of any other family member.
Sure, I vacuum every other day, but it stops fur building up on the carpet where she sleeps at certain times of the day, being an indoor cat for 15 years.

Yeah it's crazy! We can't have essential oils because of my cat because it could get on her fur from the air and she could lick it.
You gotta do like, intense research on whatever pet you're planning on getting.
YES!! this!!
on this topic, i'm absolutely tired of fishbowls and people excusing them. animals aren't decorations! they don't belong in tiny containers and you have to do a ton of research!
