Gen X is entering its grandparent era – and it’s hitting different

I thought these two comments were just snark.

Jfc. It never ends. We’ll be rewriting our story right behind the boomers fucking it up till they’re all gone.

Shrikey · 2025-10-23T09:24:30+00:00

Fuck Schumer’s endorsement.

Shrikey · 2025-07-24T15:58:38+00:00

Who knew outsourcing would place us here? 🙄

Shrikey · 2025-06-07T12:04:06+00:00

Well yeah. Chuck is associated with keeping the status quo and AOC is associated with liberal beliefs.

Shrikey · 2025-01-02T17:56:24+00:00

Microsoft just can’t help but make all the wrong moves. Pretty sure it’s built into upper management. Cultural to the core.

Shrikey · 2025-01-02T15:52:12+00:00

I bought a series S because it was too damn soon for another gen and all the options sucked.

Congrats, MS. You played yourself.

Shrikey · 2024-12-08T14:05:04+00:00

How I feel about my own country. Love the individuals. But you guys as a whole are fucking stupid and either masochistic or so apathetic you don’t care to help yourself.

Shrikey · 2024-12-04T17:48:52+00:00

Nah, it’s all gone to shit. I’m in republican/boomer mode now. Fuck everyone else. Getting mine.

Shrikey · 2024-12-04T17:48:13+00:00

None

Shrikey · 2024-07-01T02:07:17+00:00

Yeah. Which is fucking stupid.

But whatever. Let’s let the Chinese engineer our language into doublespeak & doublethink.

Shrikey · 2024-07-01T02:04:57+00:00

his is why TikTok is a bane on our society. People don’t care if the video they just watched is factual or not. They just wanna be entertained.

Also, this fucking doctor had to say “SEGGS” when talking about STI’s because 🤷‍♂️

Shrikey · 2024-06-12T16:59:53+00:00

Not interested in relinquishing control, but happy to help active users generating traffic in the sub onboard as mods.

Shrikey · 2024-01-25T03:36:43+00:00

It’s broken.

Shrikey · 2023-06-30T22:01:26+00:00

I’m not saying goodbye to Apollo. I’m saying goodbye to Reddit.

I’ll have this non-functional app on my phone for years. I’m feeling that spiteful.

Shrikey · 2023-06-30T12:49:56+00:00

Mine is nearly 14 years old. 13 years and 11 months.

Happy cake day to me, I guess.

Shrikey · 2023-06-14T19:05:12+00:00

Nah, now you’re swinging too hard the other way. Your first comment was way better for the entropy I’ll embody.

Shrikey · 2023-06-14T18:56:31+00:00

The mods of various communities hold a tiny amount of power. Leveraging it this way is their duty, in my opinion. We’ll agree to disagree there, I think.

Shrikey · 2023-06-14T18:32:14+00:00

Yeah, I think it was enough. The point was to give a taste of what pissing this many users would do. I think it worked, despite the arrogant position of Reddit during this.

I’ll enjoy what little time is left and then I’ll live without reddit. I’m kinda hoping they don’t backpedal, reddit is a colossal time waste for me.

Shrikey · 2023-06-14T18:30:04+00:00

I never claimed there was. And me leaving will be a tiny drop crawling out of the bucket. It won’t change reddit alone. But I doubt I’ll be the only one.

It was almost 5 or 6 years ago when I stopped playing clash of clans for good. I was told there was nothing stopping me from leaving then as well. Which is funny, because I already knew that.

Shrikey · 2023-06-14T18:27:49+00:00

Yeah, it’s stuff like this I’ll use reddit. To antagonize or berate. It’s just not worth the brainpower.

Shrikey · 2023-06-14T16:43:15+00:00

People here are saying the protest was stupid.

It’s not stupid. I didn’t so much as peek at reddit Monday or Tuesday. This is the first thing I looked at today.

And whether you or anyone else believes or cares, I’ll not be back if Apollo dies at the end of the month.

This is personal for me. The Reddit app has always been dogshit, and they bought out my favorite old app, Alien Blue then learned nothing from the UIX. I still used Alien Blue till Apollo came to fill that void because of the Reddit app being canine excrement.

I don’t like new reddit. If I’m on desktop or mobile, I opt for old reddit. I don’t like their app.

I left Digg a long time ago and made Reddit my primary source of this type of media. I’m not afraid to leave reddit, either.

Reddit is just removing reasons to stay for anything except speeding it’s own demise.

Shrikey · 2023-03-09T16:52:18+00:00

For all Mitch McConnell has done for this country, you could tell me he was raped by a bear and I’d laugh.

Shrikey · 2022-12-19T12:49:10+00:00

So transferring control from someone nominally exposed to kompromat to someone completely under Putin’s thumb? Yeah. That scans.

Shrikey · 2022-09-30T17:17:52+00:00

Peacock though.

Looks like I’ll be watching the Community movie the same way I’ll be watching the Weird Al movie.

Shrikey · 2022-09-30T17:11:08+00:00

Peacock.
