I guess this is my KH anniversary post now. @luxusdollhouse gave me this idea lmfao

my d.b. cooper theory is that the rapture happened while he was falling and he was the only christian worthy of heaven

I think one of my favourite Types of Guy on this site are people who have the name of a character from a piece of popular media as their handle – not even a variant or misspelling, they managed to snag the name straight up – and a picture of that character for an avatar, but they never post about the media that character is from. Just fucking Vriska Serket rolling up in your notes with opinions about cheese.

actually I'm here to make people look at yuri

No, I am not 'hoarding craft supplies.' I am sourcing materials for a very big project that will be revealed to me at a later date- perhaps in a dream.

scientists are still scrambling to figure out what “zigazig ahh” is so that they can give the spice girls what they really really want

the spice girls are getting impatient

war is upon us

posts that are funnier if u have the dates from posts enabled

i fear the battle is lost at this point but i still flinch every time i see "gay panic" used as a cute positive phrase. Like let's go on say wikipedia.org for a second and try typing that one in folks

sorry man im all booked

some people seem to be under the impression that i am taking 6 hours to do a single sudoku. this is not the case. i am doing more sudokus than you could possibly comprehend in those 6 hours.

'all age gaps problematic' people are so wild. "what can a 19 year old and a 28 year even have in common??? what do they talk about??" BITCH THEIR HOBBIES???????

Do You Not Have Hobbies Or Interests

being age appropriate??? to a NINETEEN YEAR OLD?????????

like yeah i do personally think it's weird to date a 19yr old as a 28yr old but let's not act like that 9 year age difference makes them different species that can't even interact even as friends. like can we be normal. i promise you can talk to younger people.

I think their point is, though, that the lives of a 19 year old and a 28 to 30 year old are way different, because one could be in college and is fresh out of highschool, lending to their naivety, while the 30 year old (I like round numbers better) has a lot more experience in life, so it's hard to relate insofar as events happening to them.

i don't like generalizing like that, because people's lives can all take very different paths. not everyone goes to college. a 19 year old could be in the army. they could be getting married, they could be getting divorced, they could be doing anything. a 28 year old could be in college and living with their parents, while a 19 year old could at the same time be struggling to pay rent and being the legal guardian to a child. they could be in the same college class, even. life experience isn't linear, and it does the human experience a disservice to pretend everyone walks the same paths.

and relating is not all there is to human connection! i can't relate to the experiences and life of an olympic sports player, but that doesn't mean we can't connect on any level.

Over half of college students in the U.S. are older than 25. I don't know about other countries, but, like. The notion that "college" means "A life stage that happens at ages 18-23, which is basically an extended form of childhood, during which a person has no meaningful adult responsibilities, does not do their own self-care tasks, has never had a job (or at least not a 'real,' 'serious,' 'adult' job), and certainly would not ever even think about anything like having serious relationships or children of their own" is such an incredibly... astonishingly... narrow view.

Besides hobbies, some things that a 28 year old and a 19 year old might have in common to talk about include:

I'm 40; my closest friends are 19 and 52. In both cases we have very strong commonalities despite being from different generations, and our points of differing life experience (whether related to our ages or not) simply bring enrichment to each other.

Edit: and if the "oh this is ok for friendship but not dating" crowd could grow up, that'd be fabulous.

I've had a fling with someone twice my age (I was 25) and it was pleasant, safe, and not remotely an issue.

My late girlfriend was half my age and we bonded over shared experiences that my closer-in-age exes couldn't even process, much less relate to.

Most age gap discourse is just ageism, infantilizing the younger party and painting the older party as a predator, and somehow at the same time immature; but this is not the innocent immaturity of a child in their early 20s (sic), and is instead the wicked, not-right-in-the-head immaturity of someone in their late 20s or older. It's nothing but just pasting ageist tropes onto people.

Aside from the moralizing pearl-clutching...

I think a lot of people in the notes are just keen to shout from the rooftops about how much more mature they are than people a mere few years younger than them.

Tones of:

Love the quote from @hyperlexichypatia “…an incredibly, astonishingly narrow view.”

Thanks for bringing this back to my attention so I can add on, to all the people in the notes saying things like: "Casual friendship/fandom between a 19 year old and a 28 year old is fine, it's not like the Bad Kind of relationship where they share emotional intimacy and talk about their problems!" and "It can be okay because maybe the 19 year old is working and paying rent and living independently; you can't just assume they're sheltered and live with their parents"--

Let me just say from the bottom of my heart: a 28 year old (or older! a 50 year old! a 90 year old!) sharing close, emotional intimacy including sharing their deepest feelings and problems, with a 19 year old who lives with their parents, has lived a relatively tame and sheltered life, and seems "young for their age" is still absolutely fucking okay.
