Our elders are too busy being completely asked with their addiction to relevance and self-importance
When the media started harping about how self-involved millenials were because they were taking selfies, my first thought was, "These are the same fuckers that made Forrest Gump and the Wonder Years.
The Wonder Years premiered in 1988, set in 1968. That’s like if someone today produced a TV show about how nice and wholesome it was to grow up in 2006. (Except it’s not, because even when the show was inevitably rebooted in 2021, it was still set in 1968. Because Boomers still needed that nostalgia hit.)
I’m three hours north of the city, and $500k is still a tight budget unless you want to live ultra-rural.
