That's all you have to do, it's not hard. I'm absolutely certain that people really want to have things that annoy them and makes them feel bad just so they can complain and get attention from that complaining. This is the same as people complaining about ads online and then doing nothing to fix that, it's the same with many things.
I used to love Kurzgesagt but I just don't like their videos anymore, and I'm not sure why. They definitely make the kind of content I enjoy, always did and still do, but when I try to watch any of their videos from the last 3-4 years I just don't like it. I also get this feeling that they are kinda smug about their popularity and how famous they are, it's weird.
On a huge trampoline with 10 friends when I was like 15.
In a pile of people on a Persian carpet outside an underground nightclub.
Inside an abandoned caravan in the middle of a forest that I was lost in.
Inside a big tyre used as a cushion for boats on a dock. In Swedish the word for being passed out from being drunk is "däckad" and the word tyre is "däck" so I was "däckad i ett däck" - "tyred in a tyre".
Highly disagree, everything is better now, and the things that have not changed a lot are instead refined. Stuff doesn't need to change just for the sake of change. A good example of this is smartphones, we've found a good basic model that the vast majority of people are comfortable with, all that needs to be done is to update the various parts as the years go by.
Obviously smartphones aren't as exciting as they were, but that's not a bad thing at all. So much stuff was so bad in the early days, people are great at not remembering that. Try going back to like an iPhone 4 and you'll quickly realise how bad it is compared to what we have now. Bad screen, shitty camera, worse UI and UX etc.
And the stuff that was top of the line and most expensive then is now mostly worse than even budget models of what we have now.
I really doubt you put even a second of thought into this post, you just felt nostalgic and remembered only the good parts. If you did sit and think about it for a while, I got bad news about your basic comprehension, critical thinking and memory.
We've stopped with presents in my family, except for the kids. And they don't get showered in them, a few things they really want, preferably cheap. Everyone else just wants nice food and family coziness.
I don't understand reacting like this. Do you disagree? Do you think only people with opinions that aren't popular on whatever place they are should share them? Should no one ever say what many others are thinking?
Huh, it's the other way around for me. Anyone feel the same?
And my general view of how I look is much worse than what everyone else seems to see. If I go fully by my own view I'd say I look about average, I'm comfortable with how I look but I wouldn't say it's anything of note, but apparently people see something else. I get compliments from random people all the time, everything from my physical features to my style, and I never understood why. I have agoraphobia and general social anxiety so I'd love to be able to go outside and get groceries or whatever and just be left alone like most other people but about a third of the time when I leave my apartment some random person(s) give me compliments. I won't deny that I appreciate it in some ways, more or less depending on the situation and how I feel but it often triggers my anxiety and most of the time I'd like it not to happen.
I'm a 35yo dude BTW, not some good looking young woman (which people have guessed other times when I've mentioned it).
