      IMO fuck everyone who doesn’t care about good quality appliances. They are to blame for how common shitty ones are these days. Especially developers who just get something that looks nice but actually sucks when you use it.

      Glares at oven that takes forever to preheat, doesn’t keep the temperature even once it does, and has a drawer oven that takes even longer to preheat than the shitty main oven takes to preheat and COOK things

      I was at a cocktail party a couple of weeks ago, and had an engaging conversation with 4 other dads about our choices and regrets in kitchen appliances…and lawnmowers.

    I was at Warped Tour many years ago, talking with randos in the campground. I mentioned which bands I was there to see, and this guy gave me a huge smile and yelled ‘You’re old’ in my face.

        Could be a nutrient deficiency, too. I’ve gotten myself out of that exhausted state with b-complex and magnesium supplements. It’s quick, too, if that’s the real problem. I felt normal and alert again within 15 minutes of taking the supplements.

    Within the past few years, once my neck problems started getting worse and I finally went for an MRI and was diagnosed with arthritis.

    0/10, do not recommend.

      My MIL has had really good luck with non-thc CBD creams for arthritis. Done it daily for the the last couple of years and she swears by it. Don’t have personal experience with it, but she recently opened a jar of pasta sauce in front of me and didn’t blink. Hope you get some relief.

    First time I picked up the laundry basket and my back hurt. I’m careful now to lift with my legs but my back hurts more or less in the same place when it does hurt. My vision’s going too, but that’s genetics, not age related.

        For me it was “Why are they remaking Metroid Prime? The original looks fine and it was only released in… 2002? Oh god… that’s 21 years ago…” One of my favorite games in college is old enough to drink.

          Want to really feel old? In just a little over two years from now, the Xbox 360 will be 20 years old.
