the ONLY third place for like 80% of americans was the GODDAMNED MALL and malls ate SHIT because why would you
>drive for a half hour from your comfy subdivision through traffic, tolls, and potentially pay for parking
>wander through a giant complex full of teenagers with nothing better to do
>sift through whatever product inventory you need to find by hand
>wander out and drive 30 minutes home
when you could just
>log in to amazon
>buy your fucking cheap shit or toys or whatever
>go jerk off
IT'S PRETTY FUCKING CLEAR TO ME WHY NOBODY WOULD GO OUT ANYMORE. Fucking how many underageb& are in here who have never, ever been in a mall in their lives and only have a romanticized view of it from media, and saw the collapse of them through the 2010's? Now they're full of escape rooms and le spooky liminal spaces. Fuck me I'm too old for this place
