Yep, it's pretty cool. I was born in 1982, so I was able to experience the last fleeting bits of the post-war prosperity and a mostly white, homogenous society. Got to experience the internet before cunty adjews ruined it. Saw technology improve at a pace never before seen in the history of man (again, before the cunty fucking adcuntjews ruined it)

But the best part is knowing I'll be getting ready to die right around the time the aforementioned groups completely fucking CUNT what's left of society beyond any hope of salvage.

But wait, there's more!

these are still around, or at least street racing ones are. there's a very windy road on the outskirts of my city that still sees regular weekend meets of people doing time attacks despite the high fuel costs. it's all just kids enjoying their first or second cars.

>Total normie death
The funny thing is that I was dx'd with autism in the '90s. They didn't just hand them out to everyone then. The difference was: kids could go out after dark on their own at a young age, people actually hung out and did things IRL. You're more likely to end up having sex with a chick at a house party than someone in a youtube chat. It was SO different 20 years ago, I remember playing in a beer pong tournament in the street when I was 17.
I was awkward as fuck, but because everyone was there IRL and intoxicated, I still ended up in the win condition plenty of times. Nowadays, I have no fucking clue how to date a woman. None, it's been 6 years. It might actually not be you; the internet allows everyone to just stay in their rooms which isn't condusive to...

Okay dude. I'm sorry you can't find women to have sex with you. I'm subtly saying it's largely due to dating apps and social media. I had a lot of sex in the mid-00s, but it just disappeared. I have to assume it's because I'm 5'8. When we had house parties most days of the week, that was never an issue. On Tinder it is. If I had been born when you were I'd be in the same situation. This isn't a "normie" thing.

....I got with a chick when I was 30. She was a good 4-5 inches taller than me and a few months older. But I had previously lived with her in college so we banged it out. In a world where it's just dating apps I can't find anyone. But it's okay because for a few years it was a near-daily thing.

>>28914709
3rd post in a row, my bad. For the record, if we had places IRL to go to meet other people outside of the maybe 15 biggest cities, it wouldn't be an issue.
When we didn't have MMORPGs and tinder and social media - people actually would call each other up at random to just go goof off. Now everyone is doomscrolling. This isn't a normie problem, this isn't a porn problem.
With modern social media, a taller girl might like you, but she won't get near you because other people might make fun of her for it. Before facebook and smartphones, that wasn't an issue. You could sleep together and no one would know, and you didn't think that she was texting shit the moment you went to the bathroom.
Software has destroyed dating and sexuality in general.

OP here, i experienced the very end of pre-internet society in my childhood (like age 9-13) but that might just be because nobody had phones. i remember knocking on friend's doors and slowly journeying across the neighborhood recruiting everyone else to go hang out.
i just wish that lasted.

Yeah. I thought it was just beginning. Little did I know that Bin Laden and the Zuck Cuck would eventually turn friendship and sex into some excel spreadsheet shit. I live in a state capitol city, I have no idea where I could go to meet single women in their 30s - it wasn't always like this.

Ya know, there's at least two tgirls I know who have directly told me they're into me but I've got negative rizz when it comes to seduction
I can talk to women just fine but it's all from the perspective that romantic involvement is impossible because I'm a fat fuck (tall, but fat)
suddenly you introduce interest as a possibility and I just can't comprehend it
they were literally in my bed with me at one point bros
maybe I'm just straight and I only think I'm into femboys and tgirls as copium? that's what a chick told me once but I met her on another board so a femanon isn't exactly a good look into normie mindsets

I’m just wondering how that works. Let’s suppose you started working when you were 18, straight out of high school. 13.75 is roughly 28k a year. If you had no expenses and were not taxed, it would take you 4 years to get 100k. You would then need to find a bank to give you a mortgage, assuming you live in a shithole where 100k down is enough. What am I missing?

I was born in 2002 and i have a cool car and no debt.
Im a khhv though.

By nature I refuse to make payments for anything. If I cant buy it outright, I cant afford it. It takes me an eternity to save up for that classic car I want. Especially with boomers massively overestimating how much their cars are worth.

At least I'll inherit a house I guess.
