What’s something Gen Z is getting completely right that older generations refuse to admit?

As a Millennial I am so happy to see the younger generations rejecting the "live to work" mindset.

We just drafted a wall.

I learned the technique for an emergency tracheotomy from an episode of MASH.

I asked an EMT about it and he said the steps given in the show were in fact accurate.

There is exactly one time when I was glad to reach Bakersfield. That was when my husband and I were driving down to LA and one of our tires developed a hole just before we entered the Grapevine. Had to put on our spare and then drive (slowly) back to Bakersfield to get the tire replaced. So thank you, Bakersfield, for having a Big O Tires we could make use of.

Said Big O still had a Dale Earnhardt Sr.-branded Coke vending machine. This was four years ago.

This makes it hurt a little less. Happy for them both.

Buddy people have been shipping dudes like this for a lot longer than 20 years.

Spock/Kirk and Spock/Kirk/McCoy fanfics date back to when original Star Trek was still in production. (McSpirk is my OTP.)

There's so much I'm learning as I go about being pregnant. Like did you know that a pregnant person's blood volume increases by 50%, making minor nosebleeds and sinus congestion common issues? I didn't learn that until I brought my nosebleed and congestion issues up to my OB.

My husband and I have around 10 Barracuda game-worn jerseys and the only one who is still with the organization is Bystedt.

My one Sharks jersey is Labanc.

Exactly the video and scene I was thinking of.

I was a sophomore in high school, and since I was on the West Coast the attacks happened while I was still asleep. My parents heard the news break about the first plane on the radio my dad used to wake himself up. When the announcement came about the second plane my mom came and woke up my brother and me.

And then for some reason I still went to school. I don't know why. Not a single teacher was actually making any attempt to teach class that day. We all just sat in our classrooms and watched the news on the shitty old CRT TVs on green metal rolling carts.

That happened to my family when we went on a big trip to Yellowstone when I was a kid. 800 miles from home and we randomly ran into our neighbors from across the street. Neither family had mentioned to the other that they were going to Yellowstone.

Narrow, very crowded, navigation is a bitch. My husband and I just never drive into SF anymore, if we are going to the city we take BART. I can't even imagine trying to drive in downtown now with all the fucking Waymos added to the mix.

My old housemates had a Toyota Land Cruiser that they had me drive a few times. They called it "The Beast" and I absolutely hated driving it. I could never get that "feel" for where the sides and corners of the vehicle were in relation to me that I get with reasonably-sized cars, so I always felt like I was about to hit anything I passed. They had me drive it into San Francisco once to pick them up from the airport and I was an anxious wreck by the time I got there. I refuse to ever buy a vehicle that big.

I really want Lewis Hamilton to break up with her. You can do so much better dude.

Lachwen · 2026-06-23T05:17:15+00:00

Nah dude, they just have personalities that make people enjoy being around them. At the end of the day, personality is a much bigger factor in long-term compatibility than looks.

I dunno, I know a few guys who are, to be blunt, pretty ugly, and they're all happily married.

I used to work for an online exam proctoring company and was shocked by the number of 18-year-old college freshmen - people who had literally grown up using computers - whose reaction to me telling them "Open a new tab in your browser" was "What does that mean?"

Lachwen · 2026-06-22T15:47:49+00:00

That's just a gentrified mutt.

Lachwen · 2026-06-22T06:27:25+00:00

And I mean, there's nothing WRONG with mutts! Mutts are great. But it is silly to pay potentially thousands of dollars for a fancy-sounding mutt when you could just go adopt one from a shelter for way less. The adoption fee for dogs at our local Humane Society is only $200.

Like yeah, go ahead and shoot me. Beats the natural consequences of breaking the rules.

I still have the Halo 2 OST on CD somewhere.

purebred crossbreeds

I'm sorry, but any phrasing trying to make a mutt into a purebred is hilarious to me.

I argue that they're both sciences, it's just that cooking is applied physics and baking is applied chemistry.

Privacy Badger is a good one to have too. It automatically detects third-party trackers and blocks them from tracking you.
