The least rewarding purchase I had to make was a boiler for a house. It's not like something you can show off to your friends. Just thousands in expense to maintain functional parity.
I've misread "Getting olds sucked", thinking it was a meme about giving blowjobs to old people.
No kidding, I was doing my groceries and they were playing Zombie. I almost cried. She's dead, I'm on the way, and that song that I used to dance to in dark industrial clubs is now accompanying me in the pasta sauce aisle.
I owned my first appliance at 17. How old could you possibly be?
This meme and variations of it pop up all the time, and sure, there's a 'haha' there. But it's doing some kind of whitewashing of REAL economic struggles of our generation, and I'm not sure how to feel about it.
