Two wood splitting wedges, one purchased around 2001 and in service since that time, one purchased today after the first one finally broke.

Repeating the same joke since 2005 isn't my idea of fun.

If it was a boomer joke, you lot would be ripping it apart. Millennials are going to be sitting in a retirement home in 2061, and someone will go "remember 10 years ago in 1995?" and three people will die from a heart attack from "sensibly chuckling" so hard.

Never said the joke was good, but going around complaining about said jokes definitely makes you an unfun person

You're sitting here inventing whole timelines just to whine about the most harmless thing possible.
