The debate in the comment section is always the same when comparing generations, and the problem is people flip flopping. You cannot cite examples of general patterns for one part of your point, then anecdotal specific people's experience for the other. Pick one or the other, and sadly your anecdotal points are basically useless.

I am sure you mom / dad / aunt / uncle / grandma / grandpa are all nice people who don't deserve the hardships they are going throw. The difference is that the younger generations are there as well, and they didn't even have the chance to "prepare" with savings, or a chance to vote, campaign, protest, strike or anything else related.

I am almost 40, and I am dreading the day my kid questions me about "what did your generation do to help the future" and I have to say absolutely fucking nothing because they sat at home, feeding on crumbs tossed to us and had no backbone to stand up for them when they couldn't, myself included.

You are probably safe for multiple reasons. Not the least of which is, unless you are already on the winning side of the rigged game, you will not become a billionaire. Millionaire maybe.

I have been very impressed with "Track Mix" playlists in deezer.

Works the same as all of them are suppose to, but since switching off Spotify for deezer some months ago, I have easily found 20+ new band across a huge variety of music.

I just realized I had the perfectly wrong typo in my past post. Instead of "...I am not burnt out..." it was suppose to be "I am now burnt out". Literally the exact opposite meaning as I was intending.

I am very excited for where the mods for this game go, but I am resenting Bethesda more and more for their tactic in the market and reliance on free labour. It is tons of the little things, like the colony ship that arrives at Paradiso, but all of the lamps / chairs / computers / etc are just the absolute normal game models and textures.

Such a lack of attention / giving a damn. I feel bad for the developers because you know it is management budgeting the hours that force them to skip things

I can appreciate the statement, and the fact we have a difference of opinion. These kinds of conversations are exactly why I have enjoyed Lemmey more than any other social media.

Coming back to say I did put a fair amount of hours into it, however I have found I am not burnt out. I am curious if your opinion is still the same or has it changed?

Venture

I want to make sure the tone of my response is set correctly. You are 100% allowed to not enjoy Venture Brothers (or anything that does not appeal to you).

Venture Brothers is a 100% satire around an entire era of TV cartoons, how "deep" would you expect the themes to be? I am also really curious to know more about the pandering claim above? In the show, it deals with super science versus magic, and comically exaggerated good guys versus bad guys. How would this even fake as intellectual?

Finally, and without taking away from the Icarus joke, the mournful tits banter is way up there among the many hilarious scenes.

How has Venture Bros not been on this list yet?
