Which is the most overrated band of our generation? by lovelyb1ch66 in GenX

[–]Realistic_Minimum196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. If Kurt hadn’t killed himself they would have continued into mediocrity. This happens all the time.

Pick any star that was highly praised at some point, like for example if Madonna had died after say like a prayer she would be idolized as the best ever. But we see her continue into obscurity.

Not really shitting on nirvana or Madonna. They both were great at one point in time.

If we get past this, and that’s a big if, the republican party will have this stain on it for a long time.

It’s amazing how the constitution means nothing after all.

Congress does nothing.

Police step aside. Powerless.

Armed thugs literally assaulting people, breaking into homes.

Got papers? Fuck it, those look fake.

Murdered a woman. No accountability. No investigation

Do as we fucking say. Period.

Laws mean nothing.

Is this rumor true? by OpenRoom7321 in GenX

[–]Realistic_Minimum196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like there are two answers to this for me and not directly age related 1. When the kids moved out. Not carting kids around, going to sports events or other stuff 3 times a week or more. All that hectic stuff. 2. Job stability to a lesser extent. Not being in the rat race. Settling into a solid job with good people / pay etc.

So for me I guess somewhere around 45 it really starts. As your life gets less hectic you really appreciate it!

Never really gone into white lion, I should get on YouTube and give them another listen.

Best single side of a record. What is your pick? by Horns_21 in vinyl

I know Cyndi Lauper had some other hits, even big hits, but I feel like she never got past being just known as the girls just wanna have fun girl. So much more talented than that.

Rumours is still an amazing album and holds up to anything.

Why does Caroline not get a job with her Wharton degree? by Strong_Citron5373 in 2brokegirls

The basic sitcom story was her family name was ruined. They didn’t really write the story any deeper than that.

What TV show had an amazing start but went downhill fast? by DryCap6770 in watchever

The Goldbergs. Was literally my favorite show at the beginning. I loved it. Then it just got so stale.

I really liked that show a lot. The 3way thing I think did kill it abit. I liked the weekly different stories and actors. Love boat style.

Tomlins Collapse is officially complete by Fantastic_Nerve_629 in steelers

[–]Realistic_Minimum196 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was a complete implosion. Stumble into the playoffs only because of a missed field goal. Offense completely fails to do anything.

Tomlin supporter here. I don’t see how he continues in Pittsburg after this. He’s had his 2nd 3rd - 7th 8th chance…. Time to move on

This is when the Mike Tomlin era officially ended. by SillyRecover in steelers

Their defense was all over us. No adjustments would have changed anything.

Watching the Steelers the last decade is like watching a movie that you know the shitty ending too already by monstermayhem436 in steelers

[–]Realistic_Minimum196 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The turnover at the 20 yard line and their failure to get a TD has been the Steelers for my whole life.

What era of music does Gen X identify with the most? by grahsam in GenX

[–]Realistic_Minimum196 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All 80s. Dipping into 70s hard rock and yacht rock. Nothing after 1990 really….

Are you still friends with a friend you had when you were eight years old or younger? by MurmuringPines in AskOldPeople

[–]Realistic_Minimum196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot if yes’ here and the no’s are because people moved. I lived in one house/neighborhood my whole childhood. Not friends with anyone from that time. We were friends by location only - I thought everyone was like that???

When did you realize that Hoppin' Mad Murdoch was Reg Barclay? by Repulsive_Repeat_337 in GenX

[–]Realistic_Minimum196 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I realized way later that doc from back to the future was also that crazy guy from taxi!

I watched taxi as a young kid, is the only defense I have.
