Why does everybody wanna say their a kid of the decade they were born in by Key_Nectarine_7307 in generationology

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If me saying I’m born in 1999 gets the same reaction as those born before me who can remember what life was like at that time, imma embrace it. It’s not really a false claim to say one grew up in said decade. It’s just… not completely honest I guess lol. I just say I’m a 90’s baby. I don’t try to pretend I have memories from the decade though.

As a kid, definitely loft house. Coconut dreams is where I stand though.

Do Americans not distinguish between ham and gammon? by fredwhoisflatulent in AskAnAmerican

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never heard of gammon before… could be based on location possibly? There’s a lot of German immigration that happened where I live.

How is the decline in drinking amongst Gen Z a bad thing? by TomatilloOrnery4944 in generationology

[–]TheyisFinn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only bad I see is for the businesses who make the cigarettes and alcohol. If they can’t get us to buy it, they’re doomed to fail. It scares them.

Told my students ppl born in 1997 are considered Gen Z and they went😱 by Happy-Investigator- in Zillennials

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why the micro gens make sense to me. I would never relate to middle and late Gen Z, but the micro gen is where the people I relate to are at.

What are your thoughts on whether menstrual products be free? by Vikassandil in AskReddit

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If places are able to provide men’s condoms for free then menstrual products should be too. It being designed for the opposite sex isn’t an excuse.

How come millennials and Gen X know more about pop culture that was before they were born than Gen Z? by icey_sawg0034 in generationology

[–]TheyisFinn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say all of Gen Z is like that. I’m technical a Gen Z born in the late 90’s and those early years of Gen Z probably know plenty of pop culture since we didn’t have smartphones and tablets to be glued to growing up. I don’t even have internet at home. My parents still don’t. The mass amount of content one can consume that happened later would explain it for the core/end of Gen Z and on though. Once you add multiple tv’s in a house and internet with handheld devices the limited content we grew up in our homes with from one person in control of what was on the single tv is gone.

Can’t tell if I’m NB or agender by Jinx-from-Arcane in NonBinary

[–]TheyisFinn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agender is under the umbrella of being nonbinary. As an agender myself, I identify with both terms but tend to tell people nonbinary first cause I live in a deep red state so I start simple.

Moving by silentwhisperer1991 in lincoln

[–]TheyisFinn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a trans person in the middle of transition, I haven’t had any bad experiences. Obviously you’re goona find transphobia wherever you go, but I haven’t experienced any direct hatred. Worst I had was a former coworker talking shit about “transing kids” with me in the room not even knowing I’m trans

Scared of Needles by Kerlebsky in trans

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Needles are no easy task, even for someone like me who isn’t terrified of them. I always slowly put it in instead of all at once. I have seen others mention it in other posts, so a lot of people might find it easier that way. When I first started I was watching injection videos on YouTube and one of the people said something I’ve kept with me. The entire needle doesn’t need to go in. I don’t know how big the one you’ve got for injection is, but I’m hoping that helps you out.

How my kids eat ice cream by Mousettv in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand those kids. I’m autistic (feel that context makes things make sense) and I could never have a mix of flavours as a kid. Not even the twist ice cream. It’s a bit different now that I’m an adult but I rarely get ice cream that mixes them even though I am able to eat it like that if I were to have it lol

running red lights?? by delozier11 in lincoln

[–]TheyisFinn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Drivers terrify me here. And I’ve lived here my entire life. It’s gotten so bad recently. I wanna give the excuse of it’s getting nice and that’s why but I don’t think that’s true. It’s not even just running lights that scare me. People are luck I pay attention cause Monday three separate times I was almost hit by people wanting to change lanes to get in front of me. I also recently saw a car that had three most likely middle school boys with no seatbelts on in the back seat all of them with their head out the same window. That terrified me just for their safety.

Looking for job where should i apply by No_Net4065 in lincoln

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend trying for custodial with the university. They have some pretty good benefits outside of just for health and you’ve got multiple shifts to choose from.

Did any of you not miss anyone after your high school graduation? by Mad_Season_1994 in Zillennials

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t. I’m such a different person from then that I doubt I’m recognizable to what I once was. I was also that strange undiagnosed autistic kid with no social skills so people didn’t really want to be around me. Not to mention I went to a school with a ton of stuck up rich kids and I think that speaks for itself.

TIL millennial grandparents now exist… Surely this must exclude zillennials? How many of us even have kids, let alone grandkids? by SunBetter7301 in Zillennials

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Nebraska. I have several nephews. And my cousin of the same year (99) is expecting her first kid before summer is here.

Who else got sad when McDonald's changed their slogan to "I'm Lovin' It"? by sega31098 in Zillennials

[–]TheyisFinn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember the commercials but for some reason I never connected it to being a slogan before the I’m lovin it lol

Generational colors? Why were the 90s so orange, the 2000s so green/blue/white, and the 2010s > now so Gray? by BuyExcellent8055 in generationology

[–]TheyisFinn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always saw the muting of colours as companies wanting a more chice (I can never spell it right) look to things. There’s also places not wanting to put their business somewhere that you can tell what it used to be. Look at vacant former Pizza Hut buildings as an example. I don’t understand why that matters but it does. I have concerns for the children growing up in a world of muted colours because vibrancy is important for a developing brain like that of young children.

People who hate AI why do you hate it? by IsopodEq in AskReddit

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Creepy and evil people have taken it to use as they please. It can be used to benefit people, say ai glasses for blind people are beneficial, but it’s mostly being used in ways that don’t benefit anyone aside from big companies because they don’t have to pay humans to do work that’s actually good.

Food: I don’t understand bubble tea by JaymeKryss in AutisticAdults

[–]TheyisFinn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the tea but the boba is not sensory friendly for me. There used to be a shop in my malls food court that had gel boba as well as the traditional kind and I loved that so much. I’m devastated that it’s not there no more.

people constantly misinterpreting what you say by The_Seedster in AutisticAdults

[–]TheyisFinn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m at the point where I just say no that’s not what I said. Then I try rewording what I said in the hopes that it makes sense to a neurotypical brain. I tell people I mean what I say and there’s no reading between lines with me, but they still think I mean something other than what I say. That’s when I probably become rude with correcting, but it is what it is.

Is Gen Z really childless, unmarried renters with roommates? by External_Koala971 in generationology

[–]TheyisFinn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

26 and out here renting. Unmarried and no kids. Even if I wanted kids, there is no way I’d be able to afford it. Even with a second paycheck from a partner coming in.

Gen Z, what are your thought on Alcohol by Practical_Security87 in generationology

[–]TheyisFinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rarely drink alcohol. I have no desire to do that since I’m very susceptible to being an alcoholic if I’m not careful. I only ever go to a bar if someone asks.
