This makes so much sense to me. I was born in 1985 and feel like people born in the early to mid 80s are this small separate generation, who felt the optimism of the 90s with out really remembering much of the cold war. I feel that theres no way we have the same experiencesof people born in the mid 90s all the way to…

I think a big elephant that keeps getting missed in these generational dissections is the Cold War and the nuclear threat. We talk about kids who grew up in a post-9/11 world as having grown up in a culture of fear, but we seem to forget that the Baby Boomers and Gen-X also grew up in a different sort of culture of…

The people who write books and push the idea that humans "evolved" or "didn't evolve" to be monogamous or play football or drive a Toyota Cressida do so with very flimsy…

Makes perfect sense, actually. Stupid people trust the news more than less stupid people, and the particular ideology represented by Fox News happens to attract a significantly larger proportion of stupid people. It's science.

Once at a store I worked at, there was a kid running around unsupervised. By kid, I mean like maybe 5 yrs old, and by running around, I mean "full sprint, trying to body-check other customers". The floors were tile, and frequently had a lot of dust on them, so this wasn't something we encouraged. I asked the mother…
