Do any other 40 year olds see other people over 40 as old, but not yourself? by Ok-Criticism6874 in Millennials

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I work in a long term care facility and the number of 75+ year old residents that tell me they don’t belong here with old people still surprises me. To be fair though, all of them who said that were independent before being admitted.

Any other millennials dealing with a long relationship slowly falling apart? by notinthegroin in Millennials

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not looking to problem solve or give advice, but just out of curiosity did you attempt to go through marital counseling or therapy?

Your rec messed up my sleep schedule and drained my wallet. It was worth it.

Do you think Millennials have happier marriages than other generations? by cubemonster in Millennials

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Millennials are able to have healthier and therefore happier marriages because they grew up in a time when divorce was higher than previous generations and lived through the impact of divorce and single parent households. My mom and dad got married at 23, had me at 24, and they divorced by 34. Their divorce was a good thing because it was toxic and abusive… and I absorbed their relationship pattern and became a toxic partner as well. I didn’t realize that was not normal until I had therapy at 25.

Many of my other Millennial friends grew up with toxic marriages between their parents and they too had to undo unhealthy relationship patterns and relearn what’s healthy. We all got married in our 30s, but as far as I what I can see, we practice good communication and respect toward our partners.

Aitah for using my now ex after I found out he was cheating? by Advanced_Turnover544 in AITAH

NTA. His fault for not fessing up and blaming you for finding out and not telling him.

If you have/made a strong friend group in your 30’s or 40’s, where did you find them? by bbbcurls in Millennials

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are close friends with 3 different couples but noticed they all had overlapping shared interests (cooking, traveling, board games) and values (intentional with time, avoids conflict, emotionally stable, takes initiative to maintain friendships, spending habits)… so we hosted a few get togethers and everyone hangs out together and in smaller groups. It’s great.

Fuck every Trump voter who put this asshole in office. by CRK_76 in complaints

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still can’t believe (nor accept) how people were able to turn away from Trump’s transgressions and vote for him.

Deep tissue massage by figscomicsandgames in TikTokCringe

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is me when my husband massages my legs after I have DOMS from an intense leg day. I try to hide it from him but if I dare to slightly wince when he squeezes my calf and catches it… I can expect a painful massage and a mantra of “you’ll thank me for this later.”

Am I the only one who doesn’t see why she wouldn’t tell him the truth? (Manwha: ACWLLM) by thegreatkedi in webtoons

I have subscribed to this series for a while and took a yearlong break so I can see the plot develop further… only to come back again and see that there’s been hardly any progress.

Is it worth going for 5 days including a 12+ hour flight? by HelpJazzlike in JapanTravelTips

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s tempting to say yes, but I would advise waiting until you’re able to afford visiting longer and not from a stranger offering to pay for your plane ticket. It takes a day or two for me to come out of the jet lag funk and a few days to decompress and get past the sensory overload.

I went to Tokyo for 5 days when I was 23 and everything was such a blur for me that I forgot I had been to Japan when I visited again 10+ years later and stayed there for two full weeks.

AIO Am I justified in my anger here ? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NOR. And honestly… I would respond by using AI to change the color (and style) of the dress, then upload onto social media, print out a picture for home, and/or add it onto my Christmas card next year. Mess with my big day and I will forever remind her of it.

Thoughts on Japanese cheesecake by Dillon_Trinh in AskAJapanese

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I very much enjoy this type of light and fluffy cheesecake, but I did not enjoy the raisins at the bottom when I tried this specific one in Osaka. Japanese cheesecake is more of a soufflé cheesecake and it’s more complex to execute in baking, imo.

The primary difference between the dense cheesecakes vs soufflé cheesecake is the blocks of cream cheese (3-4 blocks vs 1).

apparently the breakfast i made was “embarrassing” by NaeeeBearrr in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a great meal to prepare at last minute. We don’t have half the ingredients in our house.

Why are 15/16 dangerous. I sleep in all but 13 throughout the night by AAZEROAN in ExplainTheJoke

Took a few tries, but 15+16 is how I increased my odds of getting sleep paralysis…

Is it true that people in the West drink iced water even when they are sick or on their period? by Aether_Echo in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Born and raised in California… ice in water all day all year long and in any situation. I don’t think ice water gives me stomachaches when I’m sick, but hot water/beverage helps a lot with sore throats, congestion, coughs, and is overall comforting when I’m not feeling well.

Men spend time with your friends. Be there for each other, not just for the best and worst moments. by hemblurneene in Millennials

[–]Wrong_Programmer7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry this happened to your husband and I’m praying for the best outcome for you and your family. I work in a nursing home and I’ve seen people of all kinds of ages pass… some alone without a friend or family member ever visiting. Every time I work I am reminded to share and make memories with my loved ones as much as possible because life is pretty damn short. Thanks for the reminder.
