I’m trying to understand what the last two streaming services are.

I guess that’s even worse.

Not knowing is a sign of a healthy mind. You will sleep even better than Mr. Simpson in the meme.

This is an advertisement.

It's because we're old. I was hit hard with the realization the other day, that I'm not the target audience of this product anymore. Does anyone else have trouble remembering that they're not a kid? I'm like 30 years old, and I do not identify as an adult

I started feeling like an adult when I was 28.

It was so freeing when I escaped that at 35.

Honestly I'm starting to forget what feeling like a kid was like. I'm 30 and yeah I don't have all the answers and shit, but my teenage years were defined by an internal conflict I resolved in college, my relationship with my parents (one died when I was in college the other disowned me when I was in college), and high school.

My college years were defined by the wild shit my previous sentence said I went through at that time, as well as my studies, financial and housing struggles, and a relationship that ended less than a year after I graduated, and I moved away from my hometown after college.

I'm 30, I'm married, I've continued growing as a person my whole life and have no intent to stop now, my financial struggles are those of an adult of my generation with a decent career. I don't really have any of the same problems I had as a kid except like my health and disability issues. Sometimes I have traumatic flashbacks to my teenage years but I haven't had one in years. My interests have even matured. Sure I still don't have all the answers, but anyone who says they do is lying to you and possibly themselves, and they may be trying to take advantage of you. I'm not a kid pretending to be an adult, I'm a person, and it turns out kids are too.

I'm in my 20s and I don't really feel like an adult (I don't know how to deal with stuff, how to take care of things), but I also don't feel like a kid, because things targeted at kids don't appeal to me and I barely keep up with what they're up to now (is skibidi toilet still funny?)

I’m 48, I’m not an adult but what the fuck is this shit we’re talking about?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Drinks with drugs (yes, sugar and caffeine are drugs. Fight me) targeted at children.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

They put THC in drink form now too :)

I started feeling like an adult when I thought of going to a show and realized I would be an old dude and it would be weird. So yeah, adult just kinda happens to you.

A bunch of food and drink brands spun up by influencer personalities as merchandising.

i mean you can order Prime using Prime, but Prime is not Prime.

[–] JackbyDev 3 points 2 days ago

If your Prime has ads, you might see an ad for Prime and you could use Prime to order Prime because of an ad on Prime.

I think they’re some of them pokey-mans or beyblades that the kids all go crazy for nowadays.

I tried Prime a few times. Saw it at the gas station and figured I'd give it a try since I was going to grab a Bodyarmor. Very strong flavor. For me, really seemed to straddle the line between good and meh. Tried the energy drink once, terrible.

Then I learned that dip shit was behind it. Haven't bought it since.

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

Ahh. Not the Amazon version.

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

Prime drink with next day Prime shipping on Prime day. What did I just type.

I haven't even heard of Feastables or Lunchly until this meme.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

This is the “I don’t have an elementary school aged child post”

[–] [email protected] 24 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Not going to lie I've bought Prime recently... But only because the energy drinks are 4 for £1 at a local shop.

Sure it tastes like the sugar monster came in my mouth, but what a bargain!

[–] [email protected] 37 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Would have been cheaper drinking tap water, and not tasting the sugar monster spunk in your mouth.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Does tap water have caffeine now?
