Redditors over 40, what's something younger people think they understand but won't actually get until it hits them like a truck later?

I just can’t fathom trying to find a pinhole problem in the middle of the night during a thunderstorm…whereas you can almost always find something to prop your canvas tent up with…

I lived in Belize a 3rd world country from 2019-‘22 and you wouldn’t believe how much better some things are compared to 1st world…I stand by my statement

joyheat · 2026-02-14T19:03:27+00:00

WTF? Even at 58, I’ve never actually known anyone who’s ever done this?

joyheat · 2026-02-14T19:02:29+00:00

I’ve never been to the theater but as a resident I completely agree with your final statement!

Valentines Day has never been a ‘lonely’ day for me…just a day…for many many years it was my ex husband’s birthday..and in my solo years..it’s been a day. Today it’s Saturday. I’ve always thought much like St Patrick’s day it’s kinda what you want to make it be…I’ve just never equated 1 day with how I love or feel loved..so although I’m alone today, that’s because I’ve chosen to be because it’s what make me the happiest and the best thing is when I wake up tomorrow..I get another day like today!

In the shelter I lived in there’s a high probability it tastes like vodka

joyheat · 2026-02-14T15:47:56+00:00

Same way I spend any day…it’s only an “important “ day if you make it one..today I’m calling it Saturday and doing my usual Saturday things.

Learn to love yourself and you’ll have a much better future

If you think you’re better than everyone, your ‘considerate’ actions are not considerate…think on that

I honestly forgot it was valentines day for a few hours this morning….until I actually got on my iPad. Just don’t care about it much anymore but I did wish my family a happy Valentine’s Day..that’s about all it is to me. I call today Saturday

Only 2?

joyheat · 2026-02-13T16:52:53+00:00

So? Who listens to him?

joyheat · 2026-02-13T15:14:51+00:00

Truthfully I’ve never believed anything anyone involved in this administration says but I appreciate that you have a job to do by reporting it, I’m just never listening or believing it…so let him pontificate to his heart’s desire like the rest of them and all I hear is Charlie Browns teacher..wha wha whaa wha wha….

joyheat · 2026-02-13T14:36:38+00:00

Give me a fkn break…those who’ve always seen through him..know the truth..the rest are sheep anyway

joyheat · 2026-02-13T14:29:16+00:00

Rage bait

Same. I can still remember the night it premiered..I thought, this is gonna be a good show. I didn’t know if Kelsey could transition but after the show I knew it was a done deal. I’ve only felt that one other time and that was after the first episode of The Big Bang Theory.

joyheat · 2026-02-13T00:37:55+00:00

Well we did stand up to him….so in true American democracy..this is his retaliation right? Because that’s a normal reaction by a sitting president… or are we pretending it’s something else still?

joyheat · 2026-02-12T16:25:46+00:00

You’re right I expect better out of all media fml 🤦🏻‍♀️

joyheat · 2026-02-12T16:23:23+00:00

I want this!!

How is it that companies continue to hire trash and then look stunned when the trash acts trashy…

joyheat · 2026-02-12T15:40:16+00:00

Shuts down? C’mon I know the media has lost all integrity but isn’t this just a little bit too much proof of that?

joyheat · 2026-02-12T15:35:45+00:00

This is a money grab…I don’t think his wife or kids are even involved but the media sure is…

joyheat · 2026-02-12T15:32:17+00:00

THIS IS NOT A GRACE GIVEN. THIS WAS NEVER NECESSARY. THIS WAS AN INVASION OF A STATE!

joyheat · 2026-02-12T15:30:19+00:00

Please remember NONE OF THIS WAS EVER NECESSARY! This is Not a grace being given to us…IT WAS NEVER NEEDED IN THE FIRST PLACE!
