I haven't had to deal with "back to school" in close to twenty years and I still get anxiety every year when I start seeing those ads.

Just wait until you enter the world of work

Yeah.. Your life sucks when you have a job and your life sucks when you don't have a job.

No summer vacations when you work...barely any vacations at all when you work. Your life basically turns into Groundhog Day unless youre wealthy.

As a North American this is how I believe all European children are raised.

How old are lemmy users? I thought I left these memes behind at reddit.

Edit: I've been schooled. Fitting.

I mean school applies to college aswell right? I assume lemmy user base is on average older than reddit but I'm definitely reaching there

I guess. That would explain the pokemon references starting to pop up.

[–] Furball@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

I think way more millennials like Pokémon than gen Z
