And for young people Super Smash Bros Melee will be as cool as bingo or canasta
I’ve thought about this a few times, and this sounds accurate to me.
Oh, yah. Millennials are going to be so different from every generation that existed before.
Nindendo games? Ew. I was thinking dungeons and dragons
Retirement?
I thought about this, but arthritis is a thing sadly. It’s probably fine for non action games, but forget about playing smash
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.
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
Fine, hearts of iron; all the survivors will be weird esoteric fascists by then anyway.
Don’t forget about the commune of trans girls who will also weirdly be into Hearts of Iron and Warhammer 40k
Now you mention it, I would like to die taking some fascists with me, rather than from some suck ass old age pathology. Now I have way too much to loose, but in my old age, I’m going to be dead anyways, so why not. Maybe we see a rise in Luigis
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.
Boomers are starting to become homeless. Their kids the millennials will have it worse, as most millennials can’t afford a starter home. Retirement will look like homelessness for many of them.
They will!
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. Chairman Sheng-ji Yang
Nah, screw the office. Make it scrubs instead.
The Office
The original or the USA copy though?
Apparently there are 13 different adaptations. I kinda like the Australian one.
Oh, I was only aware of the two. I’ll have to change my shitty joke.
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.
Jim sucks and is an office bully.
We’re watching Futurama, fellow olds.
Dwight is literally a fascist and usually only falls for Jim’s pranks because of his fascism
Extra reason to Futurama.
Two things can be true at the same time!
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.
Perfect! We can do discourse!
Elder fight clubs where we all beat up the MAGA millennials.
This conversation here is what the retired millennials are going to be doing, incapable of choice
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.
fuckin screencapped
To be fair basically every futurama character (except maybe Fry) is a bully
But I love watching it for some reason.
Kif is a bully?
Hell yeah, based gramps.
Zoomers dabbing in their retirement homes whilst their cloned grandkids look on in cringed puzzlement
Millennials last ‘fuck you’ by the universe - longevity.
Maybe The Elder Scrolls 7 or Grand Theft Auto 7 will be out by the time I retire. Probably not. Weird that both those games have their 6th installments coming out next.
