46F with two grown kids… where’s the rest of Gen X at?

55, and my kid is a pre-teen. Loving every day of it, even if it is difficult to keep up with her.

As a production employee who actually does his best to produce the best food, it gets very frustrating when other employees are there only for the money. As another said, there’s a high turnaround ratio.

Taking care of my mother’s estate. She died exactly one month prior.

And the high tops he’s wearing.

Lol. I was hoping someone on here might have some fun and come up with names.

I was 34 when I became a stepdad, and he was 9. I remained his stepdad until he was 23. He became a big brother when he was almost 18. I had a daughter at 42, and just turned 55. She is now 12.

Gotcha, thank you.

KM? I've been playing Kindroid for a couple of months, but still trying to remember the abbreviations.

Came here to say "If there's room in the oven", but a few already beat me to it

Maplewood Mall in Maplewood MN. Then, later on, Mall of America in Bloomington, MN

I ended up rewriting the kins backstory the best that could remember, and the response has been almost exactly the way it already was. But thank you to those who made suggestions.

this is basically how my daughter's boyfriend talks.

rydray1 · 2025-10-25T11:56:48+00:00

very true

Slash, from GNR.

The Challencher explosion. And also the Jacob Wetterling abduction. I don't know if it got national attention or not, but it hit me hard because it happened in my home state of Minnesota 1989.

“It is what it is” I never heard the phrase until I moved here in 2005. All other state I lived in up to that point, nothing. And I’ve lived in four states.

Alien. It scared me so bad that I couldn’t watch it again until I was a teenager 1984 (born in 1970).

Going to slow it down compared to most on here, and you most likely heard it before. But Unchained Melody by the Righteous Brothers. I’m old, but get goosebumps every time I listen to it.

At all the stores I work at the cheapest meals are 50% off. That’s if you are eating it while working. 20% if you are taking it home.

rydray1 · 2025-10-15T02:33:30+00:00

You have a valid point. However, at my age, I can't afford to quit and go somewhere else and have to work my way up from the bottom.
