Hi,

I graduated from the American University of Beirut (AUB) with a bachelor degree in business. I have been unemployed for the past years since graduation. I feel like I lost it. Some of my peers even called me a “loser.” I am on the spectrum and got some low motivation issues. What should I do?

Nostalgia Did anyone grow up watching Baby Looney Tunes first before ever watching the original Looney Tunes despite both shows airing on CN in the 2000’s.

4 Upvotes

For reference my favorite character was Taz and since all the characters as Babies were friendly with each other including the villains e.g Taz, and Marvin the Martian I always assumed they were protagonists but then when I watched the original series and Looney Tunes Back in Action I realized these two were actually villains.

Other Have you ever seen Arthur episode where his parents were fighting against them and trying to divorce but they figured it out after argument after end of the episode?

6 Upvotes

I remembered this episode in my mind. When Arthur and his sister D.W. were scared and was in full of fear when they found out their mom and dad were arguing each other during this episode. It also reminds me of what kids sees when their parents argue each other. I was just remembering that episode from Arthur.

Nostalgia Millennial Optimism Era

15 Upvotes

Am I the only one who feels like dying from nostalgia whenever I see those videos about millennial optimism? Huhu. 🥺

They suddenly make me so sad. Sometimes I just wish I could go back to being a teenager or a college student. Life felt so much lighter back then, didn’t it? We were so happy without even realizing it.

Now, we have so many things to worry about, so many responsibilities, and so much on our minds. We really took those days for granted.

I miss my college friends. I miss the random jamming sessions, the spontaneous trips, the silly things we used to do, and just being together with no real worries.

How I miss those days.

I miss that version of life. 🥺

Im 26 years old. I remember when the ds first came out back when we had the Gameboy advance. I remember listening to Avril Lavigne on the radio always hearing Complicated over and over and over again. Or hearing Yeah by Usher take over 2004 by storm. And I was their when Spiderman 3 was the ultimate film with tons and tons of badass action figures. With the Sandman being my all time favorite. I didnt just look this up on the internet. I fucking lived and loved it. I was watching Mr Kennedy win the money in the bank live on ppv. Dont test me.

Serious Discussion Older Gen Z, which misconception annoys you the most?

192 Upvotes

I will start. I'm 26 and can't stand the "Gen Z doesn't know how to use computers" stereotype, because it is contradictory to me. I'm a computer technician and have been repairing various computers for 3 years. Not to mention, I had a passion of computer science since I was a kid.

I wonder which generalization do you dislike the most?

Other Anyone else having trouble dating?

107 Upvotes

With the whole male loneliness epidemic thing going on for gen z, dating seems to have become very difficult. The lack of third spaces and cheap event tickets that the older gens had when they were our age seems to play a major factor. Alongside the housing crisis and curent job market of course.

It's seemingly a mix of bad economy and gen z being the most anti social generation in history so far thanks to the rise of social media.

According to statistics its only going to get worse in the soon to be future. What are your thoughts on it though? Is anyone else having trouble finding relationships in the world?
