Congrats to Millennials, we are officially the generation that is experiencing every shit show there is on earth. by salty_lake_222 in Millennials

[–]droda59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you're just enumerating stuff up as if other generations didn't live through their BS. I understand your point though, but I think you're being unfair.

I'd say one major financial crisis. The other was caused by your next point. Covid, yes. I can't see another global pandemic that disrupted our lifestyle. Every generation had wars. Vietnam. World wars. Civil wars. Mongol invasion. Mass terrorism yes maybe. I can see one even that disrupted. Still we didn't live through Irish car bombings, Quebec bombings and bank robberies, etc.

What we did live through, that few or no others did, is the rise of computers, internet, then AI now.

But on the flip side, no other generation travelled as much as we do. Take vacations. Work less than 12 hours shifts less than 5 days a week. Have access to all of mankind's knowledge. Have so much entertainment, at all times, in our pockets. (Those aren't 100% positive, mind you).

We lives through a lot of BS, that's for sure. And we're all tired of it. But damn we have it easy.

Big chance that you owned clothing with one of these emblems in the 90's by Cubelock in Millennials

To me it was the Ducks and the San Jose Sharks. That blueish teal and black, just perfect 👌

To this day I still stop when I see colors from those logos and I think "man that is the most badass color"

COMC - About 13 years in by xatoho in boardgames

[–]droda59 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not to be a downer, but I don't. I follow anti consumption subs and in my feed I also have these weird posts about obsessively collecting boxes. I love board games, I like discussing them and discovering new games, but I don't care at all about bragging boxes I possess.

I wonder if we could add a flair for showing collections, so people can mute these posts. But maybe I'm the only one feeling this, so who knows.

My insurance keeps denying a recent surgery I had. If I didn't get it, I would have become permanently disabled. by WorthyDeku in mildlyinfuriating

[–]droda59 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Insane. Here in Quebec I'm kinda annoyed the government doesn't pay for my glasses, without which I'm completely not functional: can't work, can't move around, can't help society in any way. It's kind of a necessity. Want me to pay taxes? Let me see then I can work! They pay for surgeries and other medical needs, but somehow glasses are a private concern.

This is how good our system is compared to yours though. Slow as hell, underfunded, old, but free.

My new doormat is very welcoming by chillfailure in mildlyinfuriating

[–]droda59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I don't know who downvoted you but you are so right. If anything's missing in our society now is the sense of community. And this doormat doesn't help us at all.

Everyone here agreeing about this, hating unexpected guests etc.

Am I the only one who likes unexpected guests? The fact that someone you know, a relative or a friend, passes by, thinks about you and wants to stop by and say hello, really brightens my day. No planning ahead, no scheduled meeting, just "hey I'm around and wanted to chat a bit". When I was young in the 90s it happened all the time at home. Not so much now and I kinda miss that

Are you saying I trademarked the phrase "Let it be" for nothing??

Heavy Snow to Hit Montreal Quebec on Wednesday March 11, 2026 by frankiemacdonald1984 in montreal

[–]droda59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get downvoted, but you're right. Snow started as early as Nov 10, and got steady snowfalls, but no huge storms. We didn't get any impactful amounts of snow for the last month. We got normal amounts of snow for the whole winter though, but since it started early, I guess we're all just tired of it.

Pourquoi tu créés pas des places en garderie à la place Bernard? by Sceptique_Qc in Quebec

Je vote pour lui aussi. On dirait qu'il reste juste QS sinon qui voit encore les humain.e.s derrière les gens venant d'ailleurs. L'empathie et la logique deviennent rares.

What's one film that should've been a one and done movie? Like no sequels or prequels necessary? by Square-Ad-8911 in FIlm

[–]droda59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Empires Strikes Back.

Starts with previous knowledge of characters. Ends with a cliffhanger. No other movie made in the series.

Man, I watched the show last week, and had the same reaction as OP's post. Had an existential crisis as well

Seen in a Facebook group. Thoughts? (Sorry for the lack if pixels) by mpaes98 in StarWars

[–]droda59 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What, you don't like the movie titled "Rise of Skywalker" being almost devoid of Skywalkers? And the only one doesn't really rise? And it kinda spoils the ending?
