  • I don’t want to sound like a creep (and I wouldn’t think this guy was one if this was actually real) but if my wife was 38 years younger than me I’d find a way to shoehorn that fact into every interaction I had.

    “How old do you have to be for a senior ticket? Oh, I qualify then because I’m 72 but my wife will have to pay full price because she’s 34.”


  • Can’t remember how I came across Lemmy exactly but pretty sure it was in an article posted on Reddit about alternatives when the Appocalypse started. I loved Reddit but hated the app, website and spez. As soon as I came onto Lemmy and found people talking about open source software and beans I never looked back.

    Also yea of course those ages are bait.
















  • In that specific scenario I imagine we’d all die out fairl quick.

    To begin with we’d all probably have a massive anxiety attack as a result of those events transpiring and gather in small groups all not knowing how to proceed. After the initial panic those groups might try to make a plan to survive but being that I’m not the most organised or conscientious person out there a few days in most if not all of us would say “fuck it, lets go out with a bang” and go crazy on food, booze or whatever we could get our hands on. We’d also probably start fucking each other because we’re the only option.

    Then we’d start dying either from misadventure, fighting over resources or just killing each other for the hell of it. I like to consider myself a peaceful and rational individual, but faced with this situation and no legal consequences? Pretty sure anybody would go nuts.

    Once we get that out of our system the remaining few might try to band together to save things again. Even if we were able to come up with a serviceable plan by then it’d be too late. We wouldn’t have enough resources to tide us over whilst we get on track as a society, if we even could. Then the final “mes” would die out as well.
