I think the divider for elder and not is that I remember when we got a computer and Internet.
I agree with this.
My first computer was a 386 running Win3.1 and DOS. I sometimes ask, “Do you know what an AOL installation CD is?” That, most of the time, let’s me know who was when.
I was born in '81 which is only sometimes part of the millennial age range and never part of the gen x age range.
I was '83. Last I heard, we’re referred to as “xennials”, but I always called myself an “elder millennial”. People need a label for everything, I suppose.
I’ll go first. Mine is that I can’t stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It’s like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds
But of course you know this, so why exactly are you asking?
No. I don’t. That’s why I’m asking.
I thought incel was an abbreviation for an involuntary celibate person, male or female, who genuinely can’t have sex for a plethora of potential reasons. Since the word “involuntary” is part of the abbreviation, to me, that means the person who’s celibate can’t help it.
For what it’s worth, I’m on the spectrum, and one aspect of my neuropathy is that I over-emphasize strict definitions of words etymologically and need to have strict meaning in communication. I perceive people using fluid or inaccurate definitions for words as a vehicle for hostile manipulation and malicious intent.
I am in therapy for this, but I’m skeptical CBT or drugs can rectify how I interpret linguistic nuance.
Rebranded libertarianism or not, my point is that what I’ve experienced when talking to self-described anarcho-capitalists is that they’re all wannabe dictators.

Ask her if she’s aware that her teenage ennui and angst cause early wrinkles, poor muscle definition, and weight gain (it doesn’t necessarily, but I am an agent of chaos).
Then, tell her the way she processes emotions is basic, and her perpetual sneer is making her acne problem worse (also, not true, necessarily).
Enjoy popcorn as you drive her to therapy.
I’m not saying this is moral. But as a childless 40 year old uncle to teenage nieces and nephews with attitude problems, in the words of Michael Jordan, “Fuck them kids.”
Where they not invaded first? How are they fascists? Downvote me first but how is former-comedian-Jon-Stewart-of-Ukraine a fascist, but Putin, Xi, Erdogan, Kim Jong-Un, and every other I’m-the-leader-forever dude not?
Garbage-ass post.
Edit: Ooooooooooh, this is lemmygrad. LMAO 🤣
Bitch-made tankie invertebrate shit-heels can’t throw their Molotov sippy-cups the 2 meters it takes to socially distance, let alone make a coherent post.
Y’all mad? Whatcha’ll gonna do? Burn your Zangief tighty-whities in protest? Bakhmut was totally worth it btw BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA LMFAO
Kick rocks and catch some drone grenades, you totally cool people.
There is a danger. The select few of “us” who are “more equal” will become “them”.
How do you think slavery sustains itself? A few slaves get to become slave-masters when the old masters die.
I guess it boils down to the age old questions of what is the value of a human life, and who gets to decide what laws we base upon the answer to the first question.
