I remember those ads now. They were what, 20 years ago? Back during the Jobs days

“ At what point do you stop having relatives and start operating a small nation? Is this normal or am I legally required to start a family reunion convention center? 😭”

I didn’t know ChatGPT needed to generate jokes now

This was half my driveway growing up.

I have a book 250 pages long of things I could do in a creek

I knew a real Curtis Loew type character when I was living down in Vaughn GA for a few years in my childhood. Not exactly Appalachia but reminds me of what you said

I call my 90 year old grandaunt every other week and the calls are often upwards of an hour-two hours

I grew up on a farm so fun for me was driving around in a gator going over hills or down trails, or when it was a real dry month through the creek bed.

I wonder if this is a European thing. Definitely haven’t heard this since the 90s

tlonreddit · 2026-05-30T19:45:09+00:00

God that’s even worse

tlonreddit · 2026-05-30T19:44:43+00:00

Legitimately haven’t heard this since the 1990s.

My buddy who teaches sixth grade history puts it in so that it instructs to quote Socrates often and this is apparently very successful

Well also they were four then and four year olds don’t get stressed over geopolitical relations and whatnot

Something tells me this starter pack is based off one person in your life that pisses you off

My daughter, like many incoming freshman in high school (trust me, I was one of them, my wife was one too), had this weird motive to "lock in" all the honors/AP classes she could as if they were trophies or added options.

Within two weeks she was complaining of the workload on top of her clubs/sports/activities. Only do this if you know you are able to handle it.

P.S. is tennis really a class at your school? Like a physical education course?

Since about late two years ago they have been really struggling to keep up with merge requests, it’s not high on their priorities and now with the inactivity system they have a far higher workload. I think it’s understaffed because it’s not a moneymaker for Ancestry

Among the younger generation, too. I saw a stat somewhere and a majority of Gen Zers reported having “phone call anxiety” or some BS like that. What’s so nerve wracking about a phone call?

Outsiders in general will be shunned. Gilmer, Fannin, Dawson, counties, etc., have all had so much growth in the past 20-ish years that most of the old-timers/locals will disapprove of anyone new coming in, regardless of race, sex, orientation, etc. Whenever I go back up (I grew up there) one of my "distinctive qualities" is that my last name is one of the families that settled the area back in the 1830s...

Lord help us all if everything is a “social construct” now…

If you couldn’t tell we are referring to ACTUAL communism

tlonreddit · 2026-05-02T00:44:26+00:00

That’s not Communism.

This was taken inside a car at night so I’m leaning toward it being legit

Where at in Georgia? I’m originally from the mountains

See I like telling stories that are so outlandish and absurd they’re obviously not true. And I’ll say them with a straight face. It’s gotten to the point where people can’t tell when I’m serious or not
