Serious Thread
I have the serious hat on please reply seriously.
What is actually with the "generation" meme and why is it so fucking meaningless now? You have kids who are in their 20s saying that "Millennials were all just listening to Mumford and Sons" or blatantly making things up and attributing them to nonsense "generations". Gen X are now "Boomers", gen A are now "zoomers" or whatever the fuck and it's all simply nonsense.
The concept originally referred to the idea that people had these "core experiences" together that defined them as a group, and essentially not that many things happened in the past so you really had one or two of these.
WWI, WWII, Vietnam, Television Era/Gulf War "tv wars" +MTV, internet 1.0 (bbs boards, etc.) internet 2.0, (newgrounds, youtube, myspace, and other websites that generally worked by allowing the flow of content)
Beyond that there's no core experience that anyone has. It's not a "core experience" to grow up playing Roblox or doing anything else young people do because NONE of them experience it all simultaneously. They don't go to parties because every opportunity to be social is also an opportunity to be mocked or criticized online.
The "core experience" of the modern person is consuming media that others don't consume.
Which means as a result there is no "generation" which exists outside of potentially Gen X/Boomers, and even THEY are not having "core experiences" which define them. Again, there has been no major core experience to unite or define the current times outside of "consume specialized food and media".
Here we now arrive at deeper question: Why has this bizarre meme persisted into this ultra-specialized era? There simply isn't a core experience that any age group is having or can respond to.
Why the fuck then, are people memeing about this so intensely?

>serious question what's it like to maintain these? is it a pain in the ass/annoying as hell to get to some things? for someone that has only ever done major wrenching on anything older than the year 2000, what sort of fuckery can one expect? does that meme about reprogramming a replaced battery apply here?
I haven't had to do any major maintenance at all actually. I take it to the dealer for an oil change and they do an inspection at the same time, no major problems.
I prepaid for 3 years of oil changes and service which was $230. They comp a lot of services and minor things if you're an owner and not merely a leasecuck. (paint touchups, etc.)
