  • 5 years ago I got blue balls and had to walk a mile to pick up burritos when it was below freezing

    Writhing in pain in the bathroom of some mexican restaurant is probably the lowest point of my life

  • When Vibram's Five-Finger shoes stopped getting stocked in stores. I love trail running and those shoes are also comfy as fuck. Now I gotta order them online and hope they're the perfect fit.

  • Gentrification of everything. Now EVERYTHING is a "rich people thing" even shit they have no interest in. I thought that "white-working-class" shit like bowling would be immune to this, but nope. Now bowling is expensive as hell, and that's just ignoring the fact no one under the age of 35 regularly bowls as a hobby. Even getting a job has been a "rich people thing". No one's hiring and all the job advice assumes you have this thing called a 'network' which is something only rich people have. "Oh, can't get a job? Contact your network of billionaire friends and they'll pull some strings to get a job for you." Yeah thanks out of touch article....I'll get right on that. Me, who's not conventionally attractive and therefore never made friends and also lives in a rural red flyover state. I TOTALLY know some high-up people who would be happy to sacrifice their own wealth for me.

    And people wonder why younger people are so unhappy? Because we have either been restricted from fully participating in society or barred from it altogether because we all forgot that poor people exist.
