    don’t be sad that you’re old enough to have played on a real life ps2, or even ps1-- be glad that 9/11, 2008, covid, and 2 diaperman potus terms aren’t the most significant core memories of your childhood

            i’m old. when 9/11 happened i heard about it on the radio on the way to work. when the DJ mentioned it being passed on to him by his producer, he thought it was a joke or prank call. then the 2nd plane hit, and it wasn’t a joke. when i got to work we all went into the boardroom and watched the news for about an hour, then they cancelled the work day so everyone could go home and make phone calls

            all that to say 9/11 wasn’t a “childhood” memory for me

      What? I had a PS1 and PS2, and 9/11 is one of my earliest memories. ‘08 was also childhood suckery.

      Covid + PedOTUS is a separate generation.
