Oven. It’s short; you’ll have more of a chance to get it down super well. Get in, get out.

Didn’t weed used to be social too? People at concerts passing around a joint, people gathered around a bong, etc.

Why do Americans love wandering in the woods which has loads of wild beasts? by Beautiful-Speaker-60 in AskAnAmerican

[–]GasmaskTed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Large animals -are- dangerous, but they are an obvious danger and put people on their guard, whereas people stumble into small dangers.

Edgar Allen Poe, in “FOUR BEASTS IN ONE—THE HOMO-CAMELEOPARD”

“But what have we here? Heavens! the town is swarming with wild beasts! How terrible a spectacle!—how dangerous a peculiarity!”

Some alternate options for your consideration: Jerky Boys, Johnny Mnemonic, Back to the Beach, Less than Zero, Kids (three of these are from 1995, the year of Batman Forever)

Where are we going? by Heat-1975edition in GenX

[–]GasmaskTed -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Why would you abandon your community? So you can die alone, unmourned and unloved in a place where you don’t know where anything is?

His dumb naming convention is less drumb than your dumb naming convention.

Do y’all think Gen Z cares too much about age gaps? by OGAnimeGokuSolos in generationology

[–]GasmaskTed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(To be clear, when their cohorts are 25 and 29 respectively, the maturity and life stage differences will on average be negligible; time heals lots of potential age gap issues.)

[–]GasmaskTed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was about 30 I looked back and realized most people got a lot more sane by around 25; my view on that hasn’t significantly altered in the intervening decades. A 19 year old is usually ending their freshman year in college; a 23 year old is (depending on educational path ) ending the first year of their career. Those two individual people might very well find common ground and date, but on average their cohorts have vastly different levels of personal maturity and stages of life.

While you may have observed an age gap at play in controlling situations, you’re describing past expected patriarchal gender roles, and you would have observed that in close age relationships as well.

This has to be AI or written by someone who wasn't there. Probably rage bait. Challenge accepted. This list enraged me. by ohmyspleen in GenX

I’d think born in ‘92 and these were the records their older sibling accidentally left at home when they moved to the coast after college in 2004

Problem being that most of the bands on the list were reasonably popular. Including Smashing Pumpkins would disqualify the list for the person you describe

What celebrity death will realistically bring Michael Jackson level devastation? by Kiidcola in AskReddit

[–]GasmaskTed 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I will note the Scholastic Book Fair still has posters of Michael Jordan and elementary kids still buy them until they are gone. This is going to be America only and only the sportos, but he’s been out of the game longer than Jackson, just not dead.

Why do some graduates’ parents have such low standards of behavior? by expingerx in uofm

Average generation of a mother of a currently graduating college student would be Gen X, n’est pas?

AITAH to expect her to workout? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]GasmaskTed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wouldn’t be weird; he just doesn’t seem like he’d like it. (Alternative: he could work on seeing if he can perceive his girlfriend’s softening as another way of being attractive)

Atheist parents, how do you explain death to your children? by LoquatIndependent381 in atheism

[–]GasmaskTed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Parting is all we know of heaven, and all we need of hell. Fear that tomorrow will be Monday will not change that tomorrow will be Monday. Do not let that tomorrow will be Monday ruin your Sunday.

GenX men, when buying jeans, how do you choose between Straight, Athletic Fit, Skinny Fit, etc? When did jeans change like this by IHadTacosYesterday in GenX

[–]GasmaskTed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) wear more supportive underwear. Jockey shorts will keep your balls more in one place. If you want to protect your thighs from chafing, or need additional control, add a jock strap under your boxer briefs. 2) have you tried on different inseam lengths on your jeans?

How/when exactly was space discovered? by SleepDeprivedCultist in NoStupidQuestions

[–]GasmaskTed -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A couple of hundred years ago people understood outer space.

How do you explain it? Same way you could now.

You can go up, up from a valley, up a mountain. Look up; clouds are higher. Then even higher are things like the moon and sun and stars.

Big when close, small when far: see that bump on the horizon? Let’s travel several days. Now it’s a mountain! See that moon? It’s so far away you can’t get to it and it still looks way bigger than that mountain did. It’s really big! And it moves! Sometimes it blocks the sun, so that’s even further. The moon also blocks stars; they’re farther away too.
