mawarannahr posted:check this out it's really great My hope is the generational nonsense dies with millennials. Like when people start leaving gamgam to die in the desert because food is running low, she's just going to be babbling about how it's actually the Boomers' fault everything went to pot. Our deaths will come as a mercy to everyone around us.

I think we're just going to refer to miserly olds as "boomers" and shiftless young adults as "millennials" from now on, so the bitching never has to change

This happens with every class of product, Americans have a gaping hole in their soul where meaning should be and they try to fill it with new products. It never works but they don’t know what else to do, so they’ll be in line for the next new product. Back when the AMD Ryzen stuff was new I was looking at the SHSC thread about them and it was, literally, anticipation for release day -> purchase -> anticipation for the next generation release within a few days. e: Philippines can be honorary Americans too I guess

as long as my phone can play the latest gacha, why would I give a poo poo? triple sulk posted:this kind of poo poo died in the us almost ten years ago after you could just order new models online and have it show up at your house. no one here cares any more because the upgrades are minimal I don't think it did. I know some apple store and best buy people, and there is still a giant contingent of freaks that upgrade every single model. it's only slowed down some because nobody has money, I think the sentiment is still there

People sat outside for hours waiting for chicken fingers. Don't they have some ridiculously weird clout on social media? I feel like I see online personalities/influencers/celebrities showing off their Raising Canes meals for whatever reason. I have to admit it made me curious about the food, but I don't live near one.

And, by participating in the ritual, you are participating in the myth. And since myth is a projection of the depth wisdom of the psyche, by participating in a ritual, participating in the myth, you are being, as it were, put in accord with that wisdom, which is the wisdom that is inherent within you anyhow. Your consciousness is being re-minded of the wisdom of your own life.

Zero reason to ever upgrade.

I'm not as online as some of you people, though.

HallelujahLee posted:there was a freak in here predicting their collapse, theres also a entire industry that spits out youtube videos/articles on chinas daily collapse I'm picturing a bunch of people with no real economic knowledge making that annoying astonished Youtuber face next to a sensationalized headline. I don't think things are peachy keen in China, but the moment we see a massive downward spiral there is probably happening at the same time we in the West have some massive downward spiral. We're all in it together in the worst possible way.

Eric Cantonese posted:The PRC was struggling quite a bit, but it looks like Q3 went better than expected. One of my childhood friends turned drinking buddies keeps on insisting its gonna collapse because "their housing market is in shambles" and no amount of telling him otherwise will change it. It's all pure projection because a nation that has multiple healthy material industries and a strong gov that can step in to make adjustments is anathema - the US only knows financialization and real estate speculation and if it goes so does the country. Thus every place in the world is exactly the same. He's slowly cracking but it's a loving chore. And he's a drat good analog for a lot of americans.
