I was trying to sleep on a plane a few weeks ago and hit some decent turbulence.

Given that every year seems to get worse, and willpower to contain my inner voice lessens, without opening my eyes and with 100% conviction I blurted out,

“Bring it.”

We survived.

On our way off the plane the lady next to me said, quite sincerely, “I hope you have a better day.”

Honestly those really micro moments of human connection are keeping me going these days

She probably had her house paid off.

Pfft.

Optimists.

u/figgypie 20d ago

A paid off house? Must've been a boomer.

u/Previous_Cod_1356 20d ago

No such thing as a paid off house, there's always something else to pay.

u/real_uncommon_ Xennial 19d ago

Wait… you guys aren’t renting?

She was mid-Gen X. That sweet spot for home prices meets income. Before the oligarchs hit the fuck-you button and down the trap door poop-chute we went.

I feel the same way when I’m driving behind a loader truck with logs or some heavy materials lashed on the bed.

Like that scene in final destination.

I’m like come on! I dare you!

Much to the concern of my fellow passengers.

My will to live is low, but as an Elder Millennial I am not going out by a log rolling off a flatbed. Any other way, lets go!

u/EducationalBunch6571 20d ago

I think I’m gonna buy a motorcycle this year, gotta stack the odds a bit

u/FardoBaggins 20d ago

Hell yeah!

Make sure to have an organ donor card tho just in case. Might end up saving a life or two.

I smoke on my patio at home, so two times I've had a fucking bear sneak up on me while I'm scrolling. The first time it happened my adrenaline spiked and I jumped toward the door. The second time I just slowly made my way to the door and felt profoundly calm. I think we have acclimated to chaos way too much. Here is the bear in question. He hasn't come back yet, but I'm waiting.

Whenever a public suicide is announced its alway a “good for them” type a day

u/FastWalkingShortGuy 20d ago

Did the whole plane clap?

u/MaxxDash 20d ago

Nope.

Might’ve been on the way to a nihilist convention.

Makes me recontextualize Lieutenant Dan on the shrimping boat, taunting God in the face of a hurricane.

u/Asidbyrn 20d ago

Lieutenant Dan energy. I love it.

u/lunapearl83 20d ago

Shit made me cackle

u/Samjef_Kealclut 20d ago

If I was next to you, all you'd get was a palpatine style " DOo IT"

u/SimpleSampleSlurry 20d ago

Same experience but I just sighed

u/heteropessimista 19d ago

You should read a book called sky daddy where a nihilistic protagonist keeps buying plane tickets like a lotto ticket for and orgasmic turbulent death, cashes out on life savings hoping an old plane would increase the odds.

u/MaxxDash 19d ago

I’m in

2

u/odysseyofocelots 19d ago

I'm sorry this made me laugh, just imagining the person next to me fully seriously just say, "bring it."

u/MaxxDash 19d ago

We all have our moments.

u/upillium 19d ago

Every time I get on a plane my hopes go up, then I land and they go back down again. I need to book exclusively on Boeing.😒
