As a professional graphic designer I can attest to the truth of this. I spend a large amount of time doing boring tasks like setting type, adjusting kerning, prepping files for proof, prepping files for press, interpreting client instructions, troubleshooting files from clients, searching for fonts and photos, filling…

I am usually the asshole that points out spelling errors - so I will tip my hat to you for also being an asshole.

This Victoria’s Secret Angels outtake photo is one way to respond, but I don’t know if it’s quite right.

You end up with the same problem though - it becomes like an expected routine, and eventually devolves to the point where at least one of you gets stressed about the thought of going out because there’s this weird non-sexy tension about having sex. Before or after, a routine is a routine. It becomes forced.

The Japanese did a lot of things as bad as the Nazis. Unit 731 for example. But then they also idolize American culture and they dropped 2 atomic bombs on their citizens, not their military but their citizens. So it’s a kinda alien culture for the west to get it’s head around.

If there’s one thing you cannot hold against the German, it’s that they really teach their population the atrocities of WW2. It often feels as if Japan doesn’t care.

“But what is the giant turtle standing on?”

I also hate kissing my relatives. I always have. It feels weirdly intimate and I just don’t like it. But it’s also a societal thing that’s expected. I don’t feel violated but I do feel annoyed. But then I feel annoyed by a lot of societal rules on being nice. Like if I’m running late and I still have to hold the door…

It’s storks, storks all the way down, baby.

Blaming everything on the “millenials” is reductive and played out.

The two party system is a beautiful thing. Tell me how much you like extra parties when they New Trump Populist party wins with 37% support.

Neutral: When will millennials grow some huevos and face their fear from the big scary.....car salesman?...service technician?... parts counter clerk?

Counterpoint: I’m not paying $900 for coolant hoses and $600 for spark plugs because “my Honda could fall apart at any minute.”

Don’t ever pay to be marketed to.

People are all talk. It’s a lot easier to be a badass on Twitter and Reddit than in real life. Relax.

yeah, totally possible, though I’d like to think that at best, that’s a fringe movement from either side and without any military backing, they wouldn’t get terribly far.

It may be, but it came out when I was still in school and I’ve found it to be a handy resource for learning a lot of skills that skipped some generations (wet shaving with a straight/safety razor). Some of it is kind of silly/tongue-in-cheek (how to land a plane!) and aspirational would be kind, but they also…

This has to be a PR stunt. Former Soviety here. I was 9 yo when we moved out.

In that case, we’ve spotted two things to hate about your generation.

I will unequivocally say Fuck This Show. I saw maybe half of 3-4 episodes over her shoulder while my roommate watched it, and it was just so up it’s own ass with how clever and rapid-fire zingeriffic it was. If I’m in the mood for irritating shallow people talking over each other, I’ll attend a family reunion.
