I think a big chunk of us are gen X. We used BBS forums, Usenet, then slashdot. Then it went mainstream. Move to digg. Move to Reddit. It keeps getting ruined. Now we’re here but I guess at some point we’ll migrate again. Nothing is permanent.
Hey now some of us are older Gen Z. But I grew up around a lot of old tech so I’m weirdly more similar to millennials and Gen X in some regards on that front.
I was raised by my grandmother, my biological fathers a rapist (I know from experience) and my mother is fucking crazy due to untreated bipolar disorder. Also yes TVs don’t get enough appreciation.
i’m trying to think where my favorite places to eat are along that drive. i’m thinking 15 to 84 is better than 5 to 84 and all the places i like are on 5. there’s a taco place called Rosie’s over in Yucaipa worth popping off onto Yucaipa Blvd and getting off the freeway for a few minutes if it’s mealtime, but that might be a little early in her drive.
Yeah it’s weird but I get that exact feeling here sometimes. Some shit I get away with here would fly in the 90’s maybe early 00’s but def not on the mainstream socials. I find myself both pleasantly and worriedly surprised.

next time you see your parents give them a hug for raising you right
also the tv. the tv doesn’t get enough hugs and i’m sure it’s sad.

apologies, hug your grandmother. and your tv.
Ya couldn’t have known and I can only hug my TV. My grandmother ain’t dead, just driving to Idaho.
idaho? she might as well be dead i got family in burley and boise. that drive suuuucks and it’s wet today. give her my love too.
She’s going up towards Elk Bend. Also she’s leaving from San Bernardino California so she has a couple days for shit to dry up.
Also yeah Idaho while beautiful also kinda just sucks, luckily unlike Utah it can be salvaged pretty easily.

I’m glad to find out I’m not the only one. I took pretty much the same path. Can’t forget many thousands of hours spent on IRC.
Slashdot represent!
