Jim sucks and is an office bully.

We're watching Futurama, fellow olds.

I had the full run of the The Office on video. I had video editing software. I had it all planned out, how I was going to edit out 90% the Jim scenes from The Office, so I could play the whole thing on loop without intro or outro or the worst parts of the last two seasons.

Then I stared in the mirror for a long time and I was like: wtf am I doing with my life? And I haven't watched The Office since.

Dwight is literally a fascist and usually only falls for Jim's pranks because of his fascism

Two things can be true at the same time!

Extra reason to Futurama.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Futurama has good science and absurdists jokes, but there is a LOT on Futurama that has not aged well at all, especially from a gender and sexuality standpoint.

This conversation here is what the retired millennials are going to be doing, incapable of choice

To be fair basically every futurama character (except maybe Fry) is a bully

But I love watching it for some reason.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

Kif is a bully?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

Hell yeah, based gramps.

Retirement?

[–] [email protected] 32 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Well, hopefully those wealthy millennials will enjoy their distractions, homes, and retirement while the rest of us are dropped into the industrial grinders they use to reclaim the nutrients from our bodies.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago

Come on now, you're making soylent green sound so industrial and devoid of feeling.

It is every citizen's final duty to go into the tanks, and become one with all the people.

We have a collection of millennials and Gen z at our retirement home as staff. (Ofc)

We joke about this but it is put in place by us saying we'd also have to be picking up shifts to even live there. It would have to be a sort of inmates running the asylum situation because we're all working til we're in the ground.

And for young people Super Smash Bros Melee will be as cool as bingo or canasta

I thought about this, but arthritis is a thing sadly. It's probably fine for non action games, but forget about playing smash

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

The older I get (40's now), the more I think about how I probably won't be able to fully enjoy video games like I thought i would. My vision which was always perfect is starting to show issues already, whenever I pick up a game I almost always nod off or fall asleep within an hour or 2 and almost nothing prevents it. My hands will sometimes lose sensation and I have to drop my hand down and stretch it to regain feeling... I feel like I'll be like that guy in the twilight zone who outlived everyone and was finally able to read all the books he ever wanted but then immediately stepped on his glasses.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago

Yeah smash destroys the hands of 30 years olds in the scene.

What I'm looking forward to in retirement is finally cracking into games like Dwarf Fortress, Factorio, and Caves of Qud

Zoomers dabbing in their retirement homes whilst their cloned grandkids look on in cringed puzzlement

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago

Nah, screw the office. Make it scrubs instead.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

Oh, yah. Millennials are going to be so different from every generation that existed before.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago

Millennials last 'fuck you' by the universe - longevity.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

Nindendo games? Ew. I was thinking dungeons and dragons

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I've thought about this a few times, and this sounds accurate to me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Yep see you there!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The Office

The original or the USA copy though?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Apparently there are 13 different adaptations. I kinda like the Australian one.
