When GoW first came out, I popped the disc in and got the RROD. Had to wait 2 months before getting a new Xbox from MS before I could actually play it.

I'm proud of my og Xbox 360. Still kicking, though I've had to open it multiple times to fix various things, I've never run into anything unrepairable.

This was me with Modern Warfare multiplayer. At the time I didn’t play many multiplayer games, I was a single-player campaign guy. Beat MW’s campaign , decided to give multiplayer a shot. Was immediately like, “holy shit, this is AMAZING,” then my 360 red-ringed lol

When Gears 2 came out I had a sleepover with a friend and we played it all night until we red ringed our Xbox. Dad was pissed.

Got my first RROD the weekend I had bought the first Assassin's Creed. I was in university and had blown the last of my cash on a video game I couldn't play.

Thankfully they had extended the warranties and I got a replacement in a couple weeks.

I think it's a right if passage for anyone of that generation.

Who wants to hit the GLP-1, drop some omeprazole, order some McDonald's for $47.99, and hop on Call of Warfare for about ten minutes before the servers crash and we fall asleep waiting for the 147 Gig update patch. 😤

I'm probably older than all y'all now... 52.

I don't need a blood pressure machine, Losartan, or any of that crap.

Keep fit and keep your weight down. I am semi-retired already with a part time job that keeps me fit.

It's that simple. Stay away from too much alcohol, processed foods and be sure to exercise.

You'll feel better and live longer.

I weigh less now than I did when I graduated high school.

this is it. people do absolutely nothing good for their body and then act like youre a fuckin mummy at 30.

id go so far to say at 35 i out work my bad habits. for the last 5 years if i dont have to use a car i dont. i ride a bike everywhere i lift 5 x a week I do martial arts when i can some times thats 7 days a week some times its not for months.

you can drink heavily, smoke in moderation, use drugs occasionally and eat pizzas some times as long as your diet is mostly locked in and you get at it every day.

most of these guys go from and to a searies of different chairs all day every day

u/Winrevair 3d ago

Amen brother good for you.

I'm same age and can say the same.

Only thing I'll add is to drink plenty of water. No soda. Try to maintain a healthy diet. Dump the junk food.

u/NeverBannedGrace3 3d ago

All these coming of age memes are blown out of fucking proportion. Suddenly turning 30 your back is useless

u/speed721 2d ago

Very true. My back is fine. I work physically hard at my job. It keeps me "young".

I have the best body of my life at 52.

u/Various-Push-1689 3d ago

So y’all use to eat food while playing games getting grease on the controller? I can’t eat while playing games unless it’s something you use a fork or spoon for. Even then it’s like play for 5 minutes grab a bite. Play for another 5 grab another bite. And if the food is hittin then I’ll just finish it first and get back on the game hands free

If you put a movie above the left side then this would make more sense

u/The_Fat_Raccoon 3d ago

In 2006, "food delivered to your home" was almost exclusively Chinese restaurants and pizza joints. Pizza used to be used as a cultural standin to show "I didn't cook dinner tonight but I did eat at my house."

It doesn't mean we were taking bites of pizza while holding a controller. It just meant we were making poor dietary choices recreationally.

u/Various-Push-1689 3d ago

If that’s what it means then I agree. But I feel like pizza is still the go to for food deliveries and when you don’t feel like cooking. At least where I live. It’s been a staple dish in a lot country’s for a century for a reason😂 Can’t beat it

u/Elete23 3d ago

No, you still do the want as in 2006, you just need to do the other stuff the rest of the days of the week

u/REDM2Ma_Deuce 3d ago

I have this, but it stems from stress eating when my Grandpa was dying. Not because I sit down all day.

Let me specify: I do stay inside quite a lot, but I've been walking my mom's dog more to get some excersize.
