According to Pew research, about 73% of Americans identify as either religiously Christian, Jewish, or Islamic, all Abrahamic faiths which traditionally teach that having sex outside of marriage ranks somewhere between discouraged and forbidden. With those kinds of numbers, you might expect the number of Americans who save themselves for marriage...
I grew up in a pretty religious family and was taught in no uncertain terms that it was an absolute moral necessity to save sex for marriage, and a mortal sin not to. Cut to…several years later and I’ve never been married but have done the sex. So far this shirking of my moral duty hasn’t resulted in anything terrible, but...
Ok, this is urgent. Put down whatever you’re doing, if you haven’t already. I assume you have, because you clicked on this link promising a bunch of tweets. Which is a good thing – you’ve got your priorities straight. You know what you’re doing. The very important thing you need to focus on right now are these here...
Twitter is ablaze, having a grand old time roasting Millennials In my time scrolling through them, I, as a Millennial, feel that some criticisms are fair, and others maybe not so much. Let’s take on some of these random complaints and see how we judge them. 10. Kate McKinnon I was not aware of any Kate McKinnon super fandom going on, but...
Something Gen Z seems to be pretty into right now is dragging Millennials on Twitter. And by dragging, I mean mostly just pointing out banal things that we do in an accusatory tone. And yanno, that’s fine. I’m here for it. I’ll even add to the conversation, if you want. Our behavior really isn’t quite so baffling once you...
I feel like we passed the point a while ago where the term “millennial” just became synonymous with “bummer.” The boomers called us lazy, the Gen Xers tried to be supportive but got confused, and now Gen Z is sitting on Twitter picking apart every prosaic and mundane facet of Millennial existence to drag through the...
The dangerous thing about spending any time on the internet, or even just be represented there, is that the whole world is gonna get an opportunity to sling burns your way and there’s really nothing you can do about it. The good news is that burns are also getting slung in other directions, and we all get to enjoy that part, which is what I...
Have you seen these burns? If you’re not a doctor, you may not want to, because they are SEVERE. These are the kinds of burns that are gonna stick with you in a great way, because they’re so so mean and so so sweet to behold. The kinds of internet insults that the entire world wide web was probably created for in the first place, if we...
In 2020 I got more into video games than I ever had previously. I’m sure you can probably guess why. But I’ve never experienced anything quite like the imaginative combinations in this Reddit thread: What two videogames would make a great game combined? byu/CasperdH_ inAskReddit So what’s the next big AAA mashup? Let’s...
When I was in college I had a girlfriend I’d been with for around two years. She moved one state over for her job, I stayed where I was for my job, and about two weeks into this attempt at long-distance it all fell apart. That wasn’t the part that surprised me. What surprised me was how incredibly quickly there was another guy in the...
