Here’s my story. Someone with my last name got a kindle for Xmas this year. They inadvertently used my gmail account to set it up, so now I get all the purchase verification emails for every app, ebook, etc they buy. I can’t block Amazon because I also have an Amazon account, just tied to a different email. I called…

I think the bigger question is, when do kids have TIME to hang out...anywhere?! Kids I know have sports practice, homework club, chess club, music lessons, cooking lessons, f’ing ARCHERY lessons, play dates, college prep courses (she’s 9 btw)...jesus it’s exhausting to be a kid these days.

Those photos are worse than the She-E-O bullshit. It’s like they tried to make her look as if they spread semen all over her face.

“i’m from eastern europe and... iterally everyone, except homeless people - have their own coffee maker.”

It’s raining in L.A. right now and your comment just makes me want a proper flat white so bad.

“say yes to yourself” That’s awesome. I’ve reached the age where, it’s not so much that I don’t care anymore, I just stop apologizing or making excuses for the things and goals I truly care about. It’s very liberating. Once you “give in” to those things it is amazing the time and energy you will devote to them and…

“the hitch is the parking fee” 

Well at least the Millennials are finally getting nostalgic for their own shit and (hopefully) will stop borrowing from us GenX’ers.

Yup, it’s Prom but for adults.

I think the older folks believe that cruises are safer, fancier, and you get to “see” more countries.

We were stuck on Big Thunder Mountain in the dark once. They came and walked us off one car at a time, starting with the cars closest to the exits. It was actually cool for us. We go to DL a lot and to see things that usually go by so fast, actually stopped and get a good look at them was fun and interesting.

I have friends that love it, take multiply cruises, and post their “number” whenever they book a new one. “Just booked our 17^th cruise!” They post pics on the cruise ship and at nondescript beaches on various island countries and go home.

Dude, Stevie Nicks couldn’t lure me onto a cruise.

“I really don’t get the impetus of parents that spend an exorbitant amount of money for a vacation for children...“

“by that metric most baby boomers are not adults” Yup, 100% with ya. We still have to spend Xmas with my boomer in-laws every year. We have our own kids now and yet it’s still all about my In-Laws and what they want. Drives me bat shit...But I’m taking notes on what not to do to my own kids.

I have an 11 yo and a 9 yo, neither of them like/listen to any of these songs. This old Gen Xer mom is currently writing herself a reminder to write a bigger check to their “Adopt the Arts” music class.

It was bad, painfully so. This looks way better by far.

“...like a circus caravan that has traveled all over the world”

“You cannot swing a dead cat without hitting a Danish modern-adjacent home design blog...” Christ I hate minimalism. Those blogs are just dead boring. I’m a maximalist personally. I have stacks of books, piles of rugs, walls of art, and heavy, heavy old ass furniture that has lasted decades upon decades.  

Yes! +1 for Grid Dogs, especially if they were shelter dogs that could be adopted after the race, how cool would that be.
