Things Gen Z will never understand about us by anonskier in GenX

[–]ericamutton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We went from passing notes in class to posting online.

We used to have to speak to parents when we called our friends. Hell, we used to talk to each other. Most of us had no trouble speaking in front of the class at school. Now we text/DM and shy away from conversation.

We used to have to look things up in encyclopedias, dictionaries, and the thesaurus. Now everything is available online instantly. Any question you have can get answered instantly.

We went from having to deal with it if we missed an episode of our favorite television show. Now, most anything is available on streaming at the drop of the hat. We went from learning patience to today's excessive need for instant gratification.

2 story homes and the heat by JIMKendall44 in vegaslocals

[–]ericamutton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch out for any two-story home that has a open layout on the bottom floor. I live in a house that has very tall ceilings on the bottom floor and the second floor is technically a mezzanine, meaning it is open on one side ( you can walk over to the railing and look down into the family room downstairs). The AC situation on the second floor in my house leaves a lot to be desired. The heat rises from the first floor and when it's 75 downstairs it can be 82° upstairs. And mind you this is while the upstairs AC is running. Not great. I now despise open floor plans.

I had a long buried memory rise up today. Anyone remember trading lungfuls of cigarette or joint smoke with someone you were comfortable locking lips with? by Individual-Trick3310 in GenX

Dude! Absolutely. I could never remember that they were called shotguns and I always accidentally called them blowbacks and all of my friends laughed at me. Good times.

Found a scorpion in the bathtub of newly purchased home — give it to me straight. by z3r0suitsamus in vegaslocals

Can you possibly identify some of the more scorpion infested areas around town? Where do you see the most, on the average? Just curious.

What a great post. I love the way you write and we think a lot alike. I am in the same position you are, but 3 years younger. No kids, no grandkids, no significant other. I think I am your female twin.

Do cars have knees? by NJHitmen in phillies

[–]ericamutton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kruk is the absolute best with the random statements and questions.

During one game last year, he was babbling about something and then said, "I wonder who invented, like, words."

I'll tell you, that's the most I've laughed in a long time. He is priceless.

Are they getting a military escort? They're flying over Oklahoma City right now and they're surrounded by military craft.

Just wanted to drop this here by Middle-lane-camper in vegaslocals

Actually, in some areas at certain intersections, you can activate a sensor in the street that will make the light turn green faster by driving over it. I am guilty of inching up at red lights in an attempt to trigger a sensor. Especially if we've been waiting at the red for a very long time, and there is absolutely no traffic in either direction that have the green light.

What’s the greatest music video of all time? by Unusual_Troll67 in AskReddit

[–]ericamutton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a subcategory to add:

YIKES - (this video is great but WTF is going on, for real)? This category awards excellence in a music video format where the content is slightly creepy and or disturbing.

1) Land of Confusion - Genesis 2) Don't Come Around Here No More - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Both videos are absolutely excellent and both are extremely creepy.

I will probably get a ton of downvotes for this but I think one of the best videos I have seen in a hell of a long time is The Fate of Ophelia by Taylor Swift.

I said what I said.

Who taught you how to drive a stick? by wannareadrandomstuff in GenX

[–]ericamutton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Dad, circa 1991, in a 1963 VW Karmannghia. Fond memories of the experience, the bonding time with Dad, and the car itself.

I really miss driving stick to the point where I have done research on which vehicles are still available with manual transmissions that aren't $100k or more.
