This was kind of a plot point in a science fiction book I read. Citizens of this moving city on mars used time as currency; once your time had run out you would become a Quiet, where your mind would be put into a machine in order to accomplish necessary tasks to protect and maintain the city. It was pretty cool thought about the tragedy of the commons and how to address it,, and if my reanimated corpse could be of help then by all means...

a big plot point of that book was that the citizens dont remember their time in the machine and rich people live for an absurdly long time. turned out that you do remember being in the machine and its loving terrible they just wipe your memory before uploading you back into a body that isnt yours and give you new memories. there was a dude who had been alive for like 2000 yrs and was going to just give away his time and go into the machine because he was bored then the main character stole all the time to get the mcguffin

There’s two kinds of expats. There’s the computer touchers who move to the cities for their computer toucher jobs who tend to be some flavor of liberal (Texas conservatives are resentful towards them specifically for “invading” their state), and there’s the boomer who sold their Bay Area home to buy their McMansion dream home in some lame Dallas subdivision who is still salty about “muh taxes” and not being able to elect Republicans to state office anymore in California. They’ll talk about “The Once Mighty Golden State” and how they wept as they were “forced” to move away due to Mexicans and liberals burning it to the ground. The comments section on Victor Davis Hanson’s blog when he goes off on the state of his shithole Central Valley town and how it’s all the fault of urban coastie scum is a premium source for this kind of thinking.

theres a third type, the poor enough to not to be able to afford poo poo there but rich enough to move out of state. im that third one. they tend to be the liberals invaders though to since they were forced out by boomers charging 2k rent in humbolt county because eureka is booming!

Another thing boomers like - insisting that you have to take a keyboarding class and learn to keep your fingers in the correct places in order to touch type. My mom took classes back in high school and did typing work for $1 a page regularly when I was a kid. She could type about 100 wpm with few mistakes.

I use about 6 fingers for typing and don't always put them in the same places. But I can still touch type 90 wpm with about 95% accuracy (which is as good as you need these days since fixing mistakes is easy). I've never taken a typing class. Turns out being on the internet all day for 20 years will teach you touch typing regardless of how you do it!

my typing teacher in hs said on the first day if anyone can do 80wpm with 100 accuracy can get an automatic A in her class on the first day. I raised my hand and when she saw how i place my hands she scoffed and sucked her teeth. i put my middle fingers of the j and f in the home row and i arch my fingers weird. i nailed that and she renegged on the deal because i dont have perfect home row posture. the principal made her give me my A after i spent most of the quater ditching her class.

From the other day, but banks don't like having to handle assets on defaults.

However, if you have a proven track record of not paying your balloon loans on time, banks will happily take your interest and penalty fees.

Boomer then conflate the amount they spent on their loans over the course of their ownership on their asset value and not the market's actual valuation.

"What?! I've always thought that property (that among other things, I've continually b deferred maintenance on) was worth at least $600k! How can you want to list it for only $200k?! I don't care what your comparable s are!!!"

This somehow kicked off a 20 minute conversation as she and her boomer kids (my mother in law included) kept insisting cable and Wifi were the same thing and if she got a smart TV she could move it around whenever she wanted and the cable would just be there and available because they didn't understand that a cable modem did not send cable through your house.

From complaining the loudest when stores dare to be out of necessary supplies to refusing to stand six feet apart in the checkout line, they are doing their best to make this whole lovely experience even shitter.

My store put little containers of cotton swabs by the register for people to use instead of touching the pinpads. Most people could figure it out, but it definitely blew some old peoples' minds.

better then how it is here. the stores wont let employees wear masks or gloves because it scares the customers and only one store put up sneeze guards. i have a face mask but it isnt m94 and gloves and i got called a snowflake by a boomer.

This is hilarious because people thought answering machines were rude and also confusing. Same with call waiting. I can remember a number of relatives and co-workers back in the day complaining about their kids daring to put them on hold to answer another call, or hang up on them because the other all was more important.

My Boomer dad made me limit my phone time because "someone might try to call' and wouldn't pay for call waiting.

And where do you even buy tape or new answering machines? Voice mail has been standard for over 20 years.

I like that he makes a point to say he always answers the phone. Now you know the people that take polls that end up on the news. My brief time as a telemarketer taught me the only people that participate in marketing calls are old, lonely, have mental illness or all three.

his answering machine is voice mail if you re read it he talks about how he loves his new tapeless one he bought 10 yrs ago. i dont have a personel cell but its because im a weirdo not because i dont think they are needed. i do have one for work though as you cant work anywhere w/o out one. if you want to work in mcdonalds you wont get hired if you dont have one because they need to call you in and they do it through text because like you said noone answers the phone.

the internet talk reminds me of when i had dial up and my grandma went loving ape poo poo about it. apparently she called once and got the modem noise. she almost never called us because she lived two blocks away and we lived right next to the main shopping center so she almost always had a reason to come over. she would rant and rave endlessly about it and we just stoped talking to her.

The power comes in on a separate line from the phone company, through the phone plug. Landlines don't 'not need external power' thats insane. It's just redundant, which can be a big deal, but if you're like 95% of America where we haven't buried the lines, it's just as vulnerable to wind, ice or fire as power lines. And the redundancy is an open question. Phone companies used to have their own generating station but I highly loving doubt they're still running a coal plant to keep the 1% of their customer base that uses landlines online. It's probably just patched in from the main electric utility.

can confirm my phone always goes out when the power goes out. my mom swears up and down its against the law what if someone cut my power and was going to murder me i need to be able to call the cops. i always just remind her that cutting someones powerline is harder then cutting their phone line.

Anyways, I got hired in 2016, and there was a problem with the macro where if a column of cells were blank, which they commonly were, the whole thing didn't work. I knew I could fix this in five minutes, so I go to open it up and motherfucker password protected the file. I googled around a bit and found a way to crack the password (the method that alternates between lower-and-upper case A's and B's), only to find once the file password was cracked, there was another password on the macro or module itself!

I gave up and redid the entire stupid macro from scratch in an afternoon. Once I fixed that, my coworkers had a bunch of other requests for the macro that they'd always thought would improve it, so I implemented the good ones.

I looked the dude up on LinkedIn, and he's not even a boomer. Just a boomer at heart, I guess.

And they restrict your calories for minor offences, so most people just whither away in jail if they don't remain absolutely silent and sit up against the wall (no chair) all day (you're not allowed to lay down during the day).

the guy who catch me if you can is based on went to jail in france and said he lost like 80 lbs because they didnt give af about feeding you. i get the feeling most prisons are poo poo western or not.

Millennials should get a jump on the generational wars and start insulting the alpha generation. Most of those losers can't read, and a bunch aren't even potty trained!

i doubt it happens except for millienal with boomer brain. because most millenials are basically the living embodiment of this meme

Whatever brand of Christianity Jimmy Carter is seems to be on the level.

check his stance on abortion. its basically defund abortion clinics but dont overturn roe v wade because he is a D and needs to rely on D votes. he always danced around the issue until he was president then came down hard and basically gave republicans their current tactic for loving over abortion.

Thankfully he doesn't believe in any financial instrument beyond a checking account. He'll just let is sit and rot and collect mold, which is where we are now. Hes more likely to just do nothing than anything.


hes still gonna reverse mortage that poo poo because theres all types of scamy companies that call land lines all day to try to get the person who picks up to reverse mortage and once you sign that poo poo you arent fighting it. i have a land line because its the only phone i let my boomer mother call because its easier to ignore then a million texts every minute of every day minus the 3 hours she is sleeping. scam calls fill up my voice mail faster then my mom and alot of scam calls dont do anything when voice mail picks up. they just instantly hang up.

There are all kinds of hosed up beliefs people hold about other races, up to and including something like 40% of medical professionals think that Black people physically feel less pain (I didn't bother to look up the statistic about this but I read something about it a while back)

Labeling generations is a dumb ambiguous practice. I manage to be both Gen X and millennial because of how bad the definitions are.

I'm Gen X as gently caress and find it a little weird that outside of starting to see ads and other marketing clearly aimed at my generation that Gen X is kind of generally ignored. We were like a placeholder generation or something.

go gently caress yourself with your razer scooter you gen x gently caress.

boomers love paying with cash during a change shortage despite a sign at every single register telling them they can not in fact pay with cash. they also love to let loose a howl of frustration that literally noone cares about karens wanting to pay for a pack of gum with a 20$ bill.
