Hi, millennial here. Do you know why some millennials and a large portion of gen z suck at reading? Because their boomer/gen x parents didn't read to them as a child.

I grew up on my grandmother's lap, with her actively making reading fun and encouraging me to read along - I was reading, and comprehending, YA novels by grade 2.

My little brother though, who did not have a parent/grandparent to teach them to love reading, can't read worth shit. He was well into highschool before he even attempted a book like animorphs, and still didn't really comprehend the plot any better than grade 2 me.

So no, this is not a generational/phones bad problem, it's just another example of how boomers and gen x let their children down when it came to raising them with life skills, and then making fun of them for it.

My bank forces a 6 digit PIN as a password.

Their 2fa is also email or text only.

At least we can set a unique username?

86 is a restaurant term, basically meaning that there is no more of a dish.

46 in this context is the 46th president of the united states.

And for a serious response on shell pattern, its referencing shotgun shells; if you are using birdshot, you get a very spread out pattern of impact points, with buckshot it would be a tight grouping of impact points (shotgun shells are packed with metal BB's instead of a single, larger chunk of metal).

6'1 and similar. I cannot ride in a Toyota, regardless of the size of it.

My head is out the sunroof in a 2012 sequoia, and those things are bigger than a small truck.

Nah, huge boobs limit cosplay options far more than small ones - there are tricks to increase visual size, but decreasing is a lot more difficult and can cause discomfort or injury if done wrong.

Currently Souls Remnant, though only the lowest tier because I am broke

Never been to Disney is wrong, as there are 2

  • Never been to Disney (poor)
  • Never been to Disney (too rich to step foot somewhere with so many poors)

If they are professional and not someone looking for a quick buck, and professionals probably wouldn't steal a random person's phone

In Canada you can opt out of spam, with the exception of political spam.

Its a direct reference to NA schools allowing creationism and science denialism, especially if they are church funded.

Blame shifting by the people that they believe they should trust.

"The democrats caused this mess"
"If the democrats were in power, they would do way worse than this"
"This is temporary pain to prevent the democrats from ruining EVERYTHING"
"~~Heil Hitler~~ THE DEMOCRATS ARE THE REAL NAZI FASCISTS!!!"
