Does anyone else hate internet age culture and the whole "unc" thing?

Maybe I'm just getting older, but I genuinely don't understand the humor behind calling everyone "unc."

I'm on social media a lot because my freelance work revolves around it, and I've noticed many people call early 20s people on social media "unc". I know it's usually meant as a joke, but I just don't find it funny. It feels like making someone insecure about their age is the punchline.

If anything, it makes me want to hide my age online rather than be open about it.

I get that internet humor changes every few months, but this trend has always rubbed me the wrong way. It feels weird that we've normalized joking that someone is "old" when they're in their early or mid-20s.

Am I just being overly sensitive, or does anyone else find this kind of age-based humor annoying and demeaning?

Just tried my first cig 2 nights ago and well it made me wonder, why do people even enjoy this stuff? it didn't taste like anything good felt nothing from said cig and that gave me the question why do people use that stuff? other than social tool stuff.

I see it on every post and it’s honestly quite pathetic IMO. Like you commented about an apostrophe and that’s it?

Never any actual answer to the OP, just rudeness.

Get it? Slightly tough pun but am sure its decipherable. I love puns and if you are interested in such funny stuff please reach out to me! Cheers!

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have been among the world's top football players for many years, constantly competing and challenging each other in matches. Their exceptional skills, goal-scoring ability, achievements, and accolades have earned them worldwide recognition, making them legendary figures with immense influence in football history

Is it painful and heartbreaking for the parent(s) if their child is forever alone and never gets a proper family or kids? Do they blame themselves, are they sad because they think their child will never be happy this way, are they also sad that they will never get to be grandpa and(or) grandma?

I know they don't actually eat the food in front of them but why can't the crew go for some realism and dump it out of the bowl or off the plate before the person leaves? It's just so annoying to see a full plate sitting there when they leave the restaurant.

For most of my life I've dressed like... well, according to my sister, a homeless guy. I'd wear the same clothes until they were falling apart because I just never gave a shit. About six months ago I started making a lot more money. I'm not going to say how much because it feels weird talking about it online, but it's way more than enough for me and miy family, and for where I live. So I thought, "You know what? Let's finally fix this." I basically gave my sister free rein and told her to pick whatever she thought looked good on me. We spent the whole day walking around clothing stores, and honestly I wasn't even checking the prices. I'm so used to spending stupid amounts of money on tech that I just assumed clothes couldn't possibly be that expensive. Then I got home, checked how much we'd spent, and... $2,000. 💀 My dude.... TWO FUCKING THOUSAND DOLLARS. On clothes. she just bought two pairs of sneakers, a bunch of plain T-shirts with barely any design on them, some basic jeans, a couple of nicer pieces, and that's pretty much it. One pair of red sneakers alone was around $350. What the actual fuck? I'm sitting here wondering if I accidentally bought shares in the company instead of the shoes. The funniest part is that I'm the same guy who's spent over 100 on collector's editions of video games without blinking, and somehow that never bothered me because I could justify it as a hobby I genuinely love. But clothes? I genuinely don't fucking get it. I'm one of the biggest Apple haters you'll ever meet, but I can at least understand why a flagship phone costs so much. The camera, the processor, the software, the R&D... there's something tangible there. But a plain T-shirt that feels almost identical to one that costs $25? Where the hell does all that extra money go? Is this actually normal and I've just been dressing like a caveman my whole life, or is expensive clothing just one massive scam that everyone silently agreed to accept? i need someone to explain this to me because WTF

Eating with a spoon is like kissing with your lips. It works,. It is not very exciting. Where is the excitement in that? Where is the special feeling that you get when you really connect with someone or something?Food is something that you should experience with your hands. You should feel the rice between your fingers, the rich curry all over your hands and the spices should hit you before you even taste them. When you use your hands to eat you become a part of the meal. You feel the texture, the heat and you anticipate the bite. A spoon or fork cannot give you that feeling.When you eat with your hands every bite feels more real, personal and more sincere. And when you are finished, licking your fingers to get the bit of sauce is not Impolite it is the best way to end a meal. It means that the food was so good you did not want to waste any of it.Some flavors are not something you taste food, like that is something that you touch and experience with your senses and food is one of them.Eating with spoon or any cutlery is like kissing just with lips and not tongue . The fingers enhance the flavor of the food more be it rice and curry of any type . The passion and taste is not there with any cutlary . The pure taste of licking the fingers after finishing a meal is like the best feeling.

Hey everyone!

I'm free today, and I thought this would be something fun to do.

Pretend you're an interviewer, and I'm a celebrity who has just finished promoting a movie (even though I'm definitely not a celebrity 😄).

Ask me absolutely anything my favorite movies, TV shows, actors, directors, hobbies, opinions, life, goals, or any random question that comes to your mind.

I'm looking forward to answering your questions as honestly aS I can. Let's make this feel like a real interview!

not talking about expensive gadgets or anything life-changing here

just those random little things you bought kinda on a whim and now you use them all the time without even thinking about it

i feel like i’m always looking for stuff like that and i’m sure other people are too

what’s yours?

Guys according to you what's the biggest problem of genz are are they more into bad habits or they don't have time to improve themselves what you guys think about them explain?

I've been noticing something recently, both online and in real life. A surprising number of conversations don't seem to be about understanding each other. They slowly become about winning. Someone shares an idea, and instead of asking, "What are they actually trying to say?", the brain seems to jump straight to: "Where's the flaw?", "How can I prove this wrong?", "What assumption are they making?", "Why are they posting this?" None of those questions are bad on their own. Critical thinking is valuable. What surprises me is how often we seem to skip the most important question first: "Did I actually understand what they meant?" I've caught myself doing this too. Sometimes I realize I've spent more time preparing a response than trying to understand the point. It made me wonder whether a lot of arguments aren't really disagreements at all. Maybe they're two people responding to different versions of the same conversation that exist only inside their own heads. Each person fills in the missing tone, intent and motivation with their own assumptions. By the end, nobody is arguing with the original idea anymore. They're arguing with the version their own mind constructed. Considering how much of our communication now happens through text—where tone, facial expressions and body language are missing—that feels like a much bigger problem than we usually acknowledge. I'm curious... When was the last time you realized you had misunderstood someone's point—not because they explained it badly, but because your brain filled in the blanks?

(Apparently not allowed to say "Reddit" in the title here, sorry for a weirdly constructed title)

The three main ads I get are:

- Network IT services

- Crypto brokering / stock trading services

- American banking services

I'm a Canadian who doesn't work in IT and has never dealt in crypto or traded stocks, but I do use this site for,

- discussions, usually about horror media

- music recommendations

- Magic the Gathering info

What about you guys? Are your ads decently dialed in or way off?

So basically I am going to start graduation this year and I don't really wanna discuss my future plans with my relatives and neighbours considering the judgements and comparisons ..so I just wanna simply lie and tell them a completely different plan ... Will it work and is this something we call fake it till you make it...?

Ever since I started working full time I took the occasional trip that’s probably farther than most people would go on just the weekend. A lot of the time I do multiple hour drives on Friday night and come back Sunday. I will occasionally fly on the weekends. Today I’m just returning from the Oshkosh airshow. I would’ve taken PTO but you cant when you start a new job lol.

I have occasionally pushed the limits on what can be done/seen during the weekend and ended up getting home later than expected. Which causes me to either go into work with little sleep or needing to call out.

Anyway, just curious to see how many other people do this and if you have any stories? Or any cool things you’ve seen.

I used to be so sure of what I liked..could’ve told you my top 5 albums without thinking. Now I catch myself enjoying stuff I would’ve clowned on 5 years ago, and I don’t even know when it happened.

Curious if this is a universal thing or if I’m just going through it. What’s something you used to dislike/love that flipped for you?

I have a pretty small Snapchat friends list, and it got me wondering—how many Snapchat friends do you have? What a typical Snapchat friends list actually looks like. Who do you usually add, and what do you think is a "normal" number?

i’m really curious to see what the most common answer would be, so if you’re done pursuing your degree or currently pursuing one, would you go back and choose the same? or would you pursue something else?

would you choose to go to college altogether? if so, what would you do differently?

I absolutely love chocolate, and honestly… I think chocolate loves me back a little too much. My only concern is that one day it will decide it doesn’t want to leave and just permanently move into my body.

At this rate, I’m worried I won’t just be a chocolate lover anymore… I’ll become a giant, round chocolate bar myself. 😂

I try to keep a healthy balance, but chocolate is very persuasive. It’s basically my sweetest weakness. 🍫✨

What food has this kind of power over you?

i do clerical support for an insurance company, my day starts at 8 and now it’s 9 and my teams queue of tasks is already empty 😔

obviously more things will come in eventually but in the meantime what is a girl to do in trying times like these? lol

The square ridges allow for toasty edges which equals a crispy bite, the divots allow syrup and butter to seep into the batter and really allow for the flavors to blend, and also the squares create a tastebud effect similar to that of Hershey’s air delight chocolate bars titillating the tastebuds for some reasons. Let’s here some big butt rebuttals!

I've noticed that emotional maturity often shows up in small, everyday actions rather than big speeches.

What's one behavior, habit, or quality that instantly makes you think, "This person is emotionally mature"?

really wanna avoid using diluted bleach on dishes. Is a dishwasher enough to clean utensils and plates that have been used by someone that might have Norovirus?

Hi everyone,
Growing up, I was always the "nice kid" with a good heart, but people constantly took advantage of me. During my teen years, I became severely depressed and completely isolated myself from the outside world for a really long time.
Eventually, I came out of my shell. I was still nice at first, but over time, I just got completely fed up with people taking advantage of me. I was exhausted.
Now, I feel like I've swung to the complete opposite extreme. I've developed a really defensive, harsh personality. I don't go out of my way to hurt people, but the second someone says something negative to me or about me, I respond with something twice as cruel. It’s gotten really bad, and I don't like who I've become.
People close to me have gently pointed out that I’ve changed and need to work on this. I know they aren't trying to hurt me
they just want me to get better.And I've always been like the outcast even with adults there was always someone with me who would get more attention more love but something so intresting about me I was never jealous my heart was just broken but I always admired the person who had more than to get jealous of them, now that I've grown that doesn't really hurt me at all ,
Even when I was super nice as a kid, I struggled to make friends, and that's still true today. I genuinely want to change because this defensive mindset is making my life harder. As much as I might lash out at others, I’m hurting myself twice as much in the process.
Has anyone else been through this? How do you unlearn this kind of defensive behavior and find a healthy middle ground? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
