We burned everything back then: books, bras,
Leaded gas
Back in the distant 1990’s there wasn’t enough solar energy to run our central heating, so we had to burn our CD collections to stay warm.
I thought it was about the next step from book burning at first
I’m thinking on going back to optical media, for archiving purposes. It’s even ransomware-resistant.
At 45, I can confidently say that that 30-year old brat is out of control.
As a man in my 30s who enjoys VR, good god the kids torment me.
I came up with a decent reply. “Why are you on Oculus, old man?”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize a bunch of fucking toddlers made the Quest. I’m proud of you guys! I was under the impression that VR was mostly created by my generation, but it’s cool to see your elementary school science project took off like this. Congrats on your A+! You’re building the future.”
Usually shuts them up or makes them fumble and a few kids get on my side with it haha.
I’ve been the old sage sitting in the building in Pavlov Containers giving the youngins life advice. Always a wonderful experience when they aren’t bullying me or when I bump into a fellow old.
That’s way too much effort. Just go with the ol “because I got tired of being on your mom”.
Thor speaking the truth
This is how it feels post-30 when you get out of bed in the morning and your body is slightly off balance.
30 years, on top of another 50 years you mean?
Even if he meant this in hexadecimal base 16, I still wouldn’t believe it!:-P
How it feels to be called a graymuzzle once you hit 30
I mean I’ll take it at this point. I was talking to someone recently who was 18, and realized I literally was part of the community before they were born
Man I just turned 30 on Monday
Happy birthday
