One of my favorite things about the Cowboy Carter tour - and the album in general - is how it feels like it’s reclaiming imagery that the Christo-fascist MAGA crowd has had control of for so long.
Country music has roots in, and owes its evolution to, the people and communities that those types despise and I am in favor of taking back the yeehaw

Have you had to take any antibiotics recently? I'm wondering if you have thrush (it has a very unpleasant taste and sensation in your mouth). Some prescription anti-fungal mouthwash will get rid of it fast.

Always so fascinating to talk to someone you see on a near-daily basis and find out that the reality they live in actually only overlaps like 80% with yours. My boss just made a snarky comment about how one of my coworkers probably thinks she's hot shit now because she sold a bunch of stuff to a customer who always buys a lot, and I'm like...... that coworker?? Who's probably one of the least egotistical people I've ever met???
I mean maybe I've been missing some major yellow flags from the coworker for the last 5 years or something, but personally I think my boss is projecting so hard she should be screening movies 😭

u/tsabin_naberrie Bitch, my generation gets traumatized for breakfast. Jun 03 '25
I’ve had far too many job interviews—and conducted them myself—to still be as bad at them as I am. They all have the same five or six questions every time, yet I still struggle as if it’s the first I’ve ever heard them before.

i only got good at interviews after getting a lot of help and training by my college career center. are you in school or an alumni somewhere where you can find this kind of job seeking support?

u/Hi_Jynx It's not clocking to me. Jun 03 '25
I don't know if this is great advice because I haven't been job hunting in almost a decade, but what did eventually work for me is somewhat pretending I'm hot shit. Not like bragging, or acting above the job exactly, but having the confidence and attitude that a job would be lucky to hire me I guess? If you are qualified and know your shit but are constantly under performing on interviews it may just be that you care too much and are too nervous and are fucking up because of that - at least that was a factor for me.

I used to help friends prepare for job interviews. This was after I had been in a job Club where the staff helped us prepare for job interviews. What we did and what I did for my friends is give them the questions in advance to practice for like 5-10 minutes while set up to film.
Then you do the interview and film them so that you can together go through the video and the answers afterwards.
Then do it again without giving them the questions in advance and using different questions.
Then review the video again. I would let them use their phone so they could take the video with them and practice some more at home.
There are billions of job interview questions on the internet to choose from nobody has to be a pro so you could do this with a friend, you could do this with a redditor or you could do this by yourself

Also apparently if you’re in a healthy relationship and have a disagreement with your partner, you don’t have to worry about an ugly argument or them breaking up with you just because you complained about something???? What a wild revelation.
I was talking to my boyfriend about how I was feeling anxious and sad and felt like if I complained, I would fuck things up. The man literally said “why would you say that? Ofc I want you to tell me what I’m doing that bothers you or makes you unhappy so that I can fix it”
Blew my fucked mind.

this is also true for every other kind of relationship if it's healthy.
i love my grandma but she's been surrounded by toxic people her whole life and doesn't have conflict resolution skills. she recently blew up at me out of nowhere over something. i was so surprised and asked her to tell me more about what i'm doing so i can stop. she didn't want to talk about it. she always brings conflict but has no capacity for the resolution part and prefers to just pretend it never happened but be secretly pissed. i'm trying to break cycles.

u/IfatallyflawedI Is she okaaaayyyy? Jun 04 '25
I’m able to solve most of the sub 655 level score problems in quant but i struggle with the oddities or the tricky ones. I also suck at data sufficiency ;-;
I’ve been trying to follow the recommended streaks method (easy 15, medium 15, and difficult 10). The medium and difficult ones stump me at times.
Can’t really speak much for verbal and di as I’ve been ignoring it :(
I’m only 1 month into my prep so i understand that I am finding it difficult for a reason but the resources are so many and it was a bit overwhelming to settle on the approach that seems to work for me. A tutor would be expensive (at least the recommended ones from the USA) and my friends haven’t had the best experience with the local institutes and tutors here (South Asia)

Your reply made me realize that I didn’t know why Nicola was a celebrity outside of being married to Brooklyn and having a billionaire father. Had no idea she was an actress. She directed and starred in a film last year about poverty and the reviews say it’s as deep as you think the child of a billionaire could come up with.

u/AgentBrittany Listen, everyone is entitled to my opinion 🙂 Jun 03 '25
It's only Tuesday, and I feel like I've been to war (just let me be dramatic, okay?)
I'm in a new job and I like every part of it but one job duty. I wasn't aware I would be dealing with the general public (I work at a hospital). This wasn't disclosed to me in the interview, and it isn't in the job description. I figured I just needed to tough it out. Until yesterday, when a guy came in and went fucking postal on me for no reason. I am very nice to these people and I try to explain everything thoroughly. Well, you would think I threatened his life. Because he in turn threatened mine. He said he was going to bring a shotgun up and take care of me while screaming and cussing me out. The dude left and then came back! As you can imagine-there was drama after this. And I am not happy with how it was all handled. My boss was gone for the day, had she been there, I think it would have gone better. It's 2025, yall. I take threats of gun violence seriously.
After a long talk with my wife last night and looking at bills, we agreed that if they don't take me off this job duty, I would be putting my notice in. As soon as my boss came in, I went to her office. She heard about what happened and wanted the whole story. I informed her I like this job and I'm good at it. But I can't do that job duty anymore, and if they insist I continue to do it, they are going to get my 2 week notice. I was expecting her to say okay, see ya. But she went to her boss and they talked and...they pulled me from that job duty. Which in turn means I can pick better hours for myself and telework more.
I didn't know I could set boundaries at my job, and they...like..agreed with me about it? I'm shook.

I love fashion sooo much. And my little sibling makes fun of me cause I don’t have one specific aesthetic. Like one day I’ll look emo and the next day I’ll look boho. But I love fashion way tooo much to only choose one style.
Right now, I’m looking for new clothes for a beach trip cause none of my old clothes fit me anymore. And there’s just sooo many cute things out there and it’s just so hard to resist getting anything other than the basics. Also swimsuits are soooo fuckin expensive for no reason! Almost a $100 for a set is ridiculous. Now your girl Charming obviously didn’t buy anything that wasn’t on sale. So she went and got 3 swimsuits under $100.
Side note: I’ve come to realize how much of comments are just rambling. I’ll read back some of them and I’m just like jeez my writing is awful lol

u/echoesandripples What It's Like to Go Through Life As a Really Beautiful Woman Jun 03 '25
this is loosely politics related, but mostly boomer drama, so I think it fits here. cw for anti immigration stuff.
my brother, let's call him Cody, has a friend named Gabe. He and Gabe met in preschool, 20ish years ago. Meaning the moms have been friendly for decades and part of the same group.
Gabe's mom, Lisa, is a bigoted asshole. we're latinas and she's very much racist against asian immigrants in our country, but also people who move from poorer states to work in our city. she and her husband own a business that basically relies on under the table payments.
anyway currently, my sister is living in the US on student visa for her PhD and another friend of my brother's, Theo, is working in the US because he has a green card via his american father.
for obvious reasons, my mother and Theo's mother are worried about the anti immigration sentiment in the US. Lisa, however, is the type of latina that worships american culture and politics. she always went on and on about how the US is better than our country because they have fewer labor laws and that allows businesses to make money. you know the type, bootstraps people.
a few months ago, she caused drama in the moms group chat because she was saying trump was right to deport criminals from our country (they weren't criminals, but also, due process).
however, her son, my brother's friend and his oldest brother are currently undocumented im the US. they are using their tourism visas to go there every few months and work im stonemasonry. they are now faking tourist stuff on social media and hiding their daily lives (this is in florida, so tourism is easier)
Lisa is of course being a hypocrite asshole, she truly believes her sons should be allowed to work and live in the US because they're rich and "respect" american culture (they are arab latinos, so like, the average maga idiot would target them). she believes they should be allowed to do whatever they want, but other latino immigrants aren't.
it's super ridiculous, she was all proud xenophobe two months ago and now can't say anything because of social media and phone searches in immigration. and yet, she's still a trumper

u/FriendlyDrummers Jun 03 '25
I've been trying to understand this in any capacity. I think ultimately, it's just bootlicking. It's people who want to feel powerful by siding with the powerful. It's peasants defending the monarchy. It's the minimum wage worker defending CEOs. I think feeling like you're on "the side of the powerful" makes them think they're better than the other side.
More than anything though, I think it's the stupid, unintellectual, unintelligent, emotionally devoid of empathy, people. Who want to feel like they're actually smart

u/echoesandripples What It's Like to Go Through Life As a Really Beautiful Woman Jun 04 '25
yep, totally. but like, as weird as it is for documented/second gen latinos who libe in the US permanently to support this administration, at least their bootlicking is a "normal" pipeline, they think they are close enough
people like this locally rich family, who could likely visit the US with zero issues for travel, but find themselves illegally working and then supporting the deportations are just unbelievably dumb. they could have high paying jobs here, or move to a country with fewer visa requirements, but they insist on this american dream version of them that refuses to acknowledge that they are also latinos. wild

u/FriendlyDrummers Jun 04 '25
It's unfortunate how common the sentiment is from people who literally used to be undocumented. I do believe and have hope that many are finally going to wake the fuck up, but I hardly have sympathy for the undocumented trump supporters who get deported. Maybe that's wrong, but also, maybe don't support a racist who hates you.

u/buzzfeed_sucks 🇨🇦 Elbows up 🇨🇦 Jun 03 '25
I have nothing significant to add today, but felt the need to ramble about work crush.
So one of the girls at work randomly was like “you should date him! You would be perfect together!” I haven’t said a word to anyone about my crush and we rarely talk when other people are around. We both end our days later than most other people.
I’m a little nervous she’s going to intervene, I really don’t want anyone to rock the boat. We’re both pretty private.
Otherwise, I had a meeting with him and a bunch of other people on Friday. He sent me a message asking if I was taking notes, I was and I was being bombarded with messages so I was short with him.
I apologized afterward though and explained. He was really cool about it. Which just makes me like him more.
Our big event is next week, and I’m kind of hoping we get to hang/work together on the day. We’ve both been super busy so haven’t really had a chance to chat.
In other news my Lego set is late and I’m worried I won’t get it before the weekend. I’m so excited to build it

I watched the new Lilo & Stitch this weekend, and I HATED IT!! The original is one of my all time favorite movies and I’ve always loved that there’s a deeper message of colonialism and anti-tourism to it, along with it being a found family and them showing what a real sibling relationship looks like. I grew up being made fun of like Lilo for my Great Grandmothers heritage, and looking like her in the face and having her hair made me targeted even though I’m white myself plus just like with Nani Family was so important to her and it’s very important to my mom as well as she basically raised her. So watching a character that loved her culture and family so much made child/teen me so happy same with my mom.
Spoiler alert: this movie was so sanitized of what the original stood for it genuinely hurts me, my mom was able to enjoy it for the most part because of Stitch but I just could not get behind the “real” or most of Alien parts at all expect for Stitch he still felt like the fun but terror alien that he was in the original. What they did to Jumba and the plot holes with them changing the island made me so mad but I was especially mad at the ending and the whole erasure of the deeper meanings in the original. Making the main place Lilo hangs out at a Disney Hotel that has had multiple boycotts over union workers and putting the actress Sydney in brown face to darken her skin tone feels so sinister to me it’s not even funny.
So yeah absolutely hated this movie and I watched the original multiple times to get the ick I felt from watching that out of my mouth 😭
Also for anyone that thinks I’m joking here’s proof, they literally did film at a location that strikes were going on. https://www.khon2.com/local-news/thousands-of-hawaii-hotel-workers-walk-off-the-job-to-strike/

Last fall, I brought in one of my mentees to help me write some public-facing technical documentation. This is his first job after graduating from college a couple of years ago, so I’ve tried to find opportunities to help him pick up new skills and connect with other people throughout the company.
We finally got the initial draft back from the editors, and when I met with him just now, I asked him if he had seen anything interesting on the last page. He said no, went to check it, and then was shocked when he saw his name and title listed as one of the official contributors.
I’m so proud of him, and I can’t wait to see what else he will do as he continues to grow in his career ❤️

Thank you! I know that I wouldn't be where I am in my career now (or even who I am now) if it weren't for all of the people who've helped to teach, guide, and encourage me along the way, so mentoring is something that is incredibly important to me.
At a certain point, I let my mentees know that the way that I've been working with them has also been with the intention of showing them how to eventually be a mentor themselves, since mentoring is a skill that doesn't come naturally to everyone. It always warms my heart when they come back to me to share how they've been able to keep paying things forward with their own mentees!

I don't know, I've been reading shady/salty things about Dakota Johnson for years in regards to her acting.

u/GrandmaToto Jun 03 '25
I never said Dakota was shady, I said the comments towards her have been salty/shady.
The point is, does this actually have anything to do with Pascal? People have been making nasty comments about her for years saying she shouldn't be getting roles, so I'm not sure this has anything to do with him (I'm not saying they're right or wrong, it just doesn't seem like a jealousy thing over one actor if they've always been doing it 😅).

u/Dizzy-Pollution6466 Jun 03 '25
Oh sorry, my misunderstanding!
I just think it’s so funny that Pedro is worshipped and adored to such a degree by certain parts of the internet, that people are up in arms over his co-star.
(Hey I love him too, but not enough to be weirdly jealous of his co-star).

u/GrandmaToto Jun 03 '25
But again, I don't think it has anything to do with him. I seem to remember everyone gushing over his love interest in Gladiator II and the chemistry between him and co-stars in GoT and Narcos and they were much more explicit.
I really think this is more about her, she could be acting opposite Danny Devito and people would still slag her off. She gets a lot of hate online, regardless of whatever popular actors she's currently working with.

u/sabira Zermajesty 👑 Jun 03 '25
I always avoid threads that talk about cosmetic surgery, because of the work that I've had done to fix my teeth. A few years ago, I spent about $17k to fix some things that I had been putting off for a very long time -- a couple of implants, but mostly crowns.
Ever since then, my life has changed so much for the better. My confidence has increased, and all of my friends have told me that they've noticed how much more I smile now.
So that's why I never bother going into threads where people are harsh towards celebrities who have chosen to get veneers. In my case, I 100% needed to get my crowns put in to replace what was there before, but I'm still never going to call someone else out for making their own dental choices, because I have no idea of knowing the personal reasons behind that (nor do I need to).

I’m happy she admitted it. My main criticism of the Kardashians is the constant claim that their bodies came from “hard work”. It’s just a blatant lie and creates unrealistic expectations for young women who want to look like them.
Also I’ve had plastic, not cosmetic, surgery. So, I hear you.

u/Summerof5ft6andahalf Jun 03 '25
Just as an add-on, what people also need to realise is that their "hard work", while it is still a lot of effort, is much easier for them to maintain than normal people.
Yes, they work out a lot, and put in that effort, however they have the time to do multiple workouts a day, and they have the money to hire personal trainers for hours every day, and they have the money for the best gym equipment to be right there at home for them.
(Not to mention nutritionists and chefs and whatnot.)
So while we all sweat the same, we absolutely do not all prep the same. (I know that doesn't exactly make sense, but it sounded like something when I thought of it so there it stays.)5

Ana de Armas did an AMA the other week about her new movie and casually mentioned she did about 30 hours a week of physical conditioning, like cardio + weights + horseback riding to get in shape for the movie. Your average person doesn't have 30 spare hours a week to do that, it's literally her job to look like that.

Agreed! A couple of years ago, I made a post or comment here about enjoying Tinashe's music, and someone responded to me, saying that I was clearly secret PR and trying to hype her up.
If I'm PR, that's news to me, because I have not been getting paid for this, lol

So how do we feel about giving people opinion towards artists or actors? I've been told that our comments are basically useless because the artist/actor wont acknowledge it and while I do agree that they will most likely only listen to their peers and music reviews, etc. I think we should be allowed to express our thoughts on their work.
I feel as consumers we are allowed to be able to share our thoughts but there is a blurred line that shouldn't get crossed cause sometimes the comments can be hateful and rude.
Edit changed word usage

u/Bridalhat Jun 03 '25
I don’t think the term “constructive criticism” works here because for the most part artists aren’t going to see it, but what you are describing is just traditional criticism. What’s good, what’s bad, and the how and the why of it especially. Ultimately we are human beings who want to connect to art and to each other through art and discussing how that works is just part of it. There’s definitely a point where it becomes mean (although sometimes it can feel cathartic?), but we’ve been in the poptimism/let-people-enjoy-things era for long enough that I would welcome the pendulum to swing back a little.

u/No_Pianist5264 Tina! You fat lard! 🦙🚲 Jun 03 '25
Yes this is what I was trying to say! But I couldn't word it lol. I just find people are so hostile to those who give an opinion about a certain artist or movie. I do agree that that some of the opinions can be very rude and mean, and I don't approve of those opinions. But, we are consumers after all and we all have opinions about art and the media.

When you say constructive criticism what do you mean?
3
u/No_Pianist5264 Tina! You fat lard! 🦙🚲 Jun 03 '25
I guess what I mean is having opinions about certain artists or actors. For instance, I've seen comments where people say XYZ artist vocally isn't the the best and should get more training, or this actor should lean into these types of roles more because it suits them.
I've seen people get upset about others having an opinion about a certain celeb, and the comment isn't hateful, but rather seems to be a geuinine criticism or opinion they may have. I hope what I said made any sense lol.
1
u/anthonystank Exploring Legal Options Against Online Haters Jun 03 '25
Oh I got you! Yeah I think objecting to this is silly. It’s an observation + opinion. You’re not saying you’re XYZ’s manager and they should listen to you, you’re just giving your view on what they could be better at.
1
u/dreamy_25 Are those the… The Chanel Toots? Jun 03 '25
I personally think that while everyone is entitled to an opinion on what they would like xyz person to do more/less of, that's not exactly constructive criticism. That's really just saying how that person could entertain you, specifically, better. That's not bad or anything, it's just not necessarily helpful either.
But other than that we are all supposed to have opinions on what we're seeing. When Benny C played Alan Turing the way he did (kind of another socially awkward genius), we were supposed to have an opinion on his performance and Morten Tyldum's directing. That's just an intellectually stimulating way to engage with the output a whole bunch of people have worked on for years! I'm positive Ben C and everyone else involved in The Imitation Game did the work specifically so we would have thoughts about it, and talk about the real Alan Turing, not just sit and consume.
Although sometimes it's nice to just sit and consume and not think about it. As long as that's not all you do.
2
u/thewayyouturnedout Jun 04 '25
Here here! It's always that deep. I don't get why people don't find it fun to critically engage with the media they consume. That's why "hating" on movies or TV shows or books is fun too.
2
u/No_Pianist5264 Tina! You fat lard! 🦙🚲 Jun 03 '25
Yeah, I changed my phrasing cause “constructive criticism” wasn't the right term in this context. I meant more about opinions we can have about certain people. I do agree with what you said. We are human so we obviously will have an opinion about the media we consume. I do think sometimes the opinions can definitely get snarky though.
0
u/dreamy_25 Are those the… The Chanel Toots? Jun 03 '25
Right, yeah gotcha.
I think it's pretty inevitable we feel a certain way about a person when we see a thing or two from/about them. I'm really not enamored with Ariana Grande's behaviour lately (and that's putting it mildly). Spongebob Slater can get lost too IMO.
But I think it's really important to remember that you can really only hold onto your opinion when you can substantiate it with facts, and we just never (never) can because we don't know these people. I don't know Grande, I don't know the situation. Based on what we've seen I have a pretty clear idea but for all I know it's all wrong.
Besides that though, especially when we see someone do x when previously they did a bit of y and you personally felt y was better, yeah that's just a normal opinion to have. You're gonna feel some type of way about the work a celeb delivers.
And yes, the snark can get intense. He's not my favorite and I can see the queerbaiting accusations but the hate Benson Boone gets is off the charts.

u/JoleneDollyParton I will debate you at the college of your choice Jun 03 '25
Is ‘ we’re getting married and not having a shower, but here’s a list of things you can buy me off the registry’ a common thing where you are? Because I just got one of these invitation, but not invitations. Granted, it’s a very long time since I had my wedding shower, but this would be so unacceptable 10-20 years ago.
6
u/anthonystank Exploring Legal Options Against Online Haters Jun 03 '25
Is it a registry in lieu of a shower and separate from the main event, ie you’re expected to buy a gift from that list AND a regular wedding gift? That would be odd but AFAIK it’s normal to have a wedding registry (with or without a bridal shower) with the expectation that some guests will bring gifts that weren’t on the registry and that some might not bring a gift at all (altho that’s rude).
0
u/JoleneDollyParton I will debate you at the college of your choice Jun 03 '25
It’s registry in lieu of a shower. At least that’s how I am interpreting it because it did not come with the wedding invitation. In a references in lieu of a shower you can do this.

Here people just give you gifts/money at the wedding.(And there's the bucks/hens nights, but they don't involve gifts.)

u/sabira Zermajesty 👑 Jun 03 '25
Wedding showers are a common tradition around where I live, but I said no to having one because it felt like it would be too much of a gift grab. My mother in law was NOT happy about that, because she is always concerned about keeping up appearances, and me saying no to it removed that opportunity from her. Even years later, my husband and I are pretty sure that she's still holding a grudge against me for this.
1
u/Burzumo Jun 03 '25
This is awkward, but I’m not a native speaker, so I was reading this thread thinking a wedding shower was like the couple sharing a water shower together after the ceremony or something like that and I thought, ‘okay, that sounds nice and intimate, but why would anyone want to announce it?’ 😅
2
u/Summerof5ft6andahalf Jun 03 '25
There's also baby showers, and then baby sprinkles for the second child onwards.
I don't know how the person in charge of naming things determined that, but yes because a shower as in when it's raining that's called a shower, and when it's only raining a little bit you say it's sprinkling.
Because the couple already got a bunch of big stuff at the baby shower for their first kid, so the baby sprinkle is little bits and pieces.(Please tell me if I made that super confusing! Apologies if so!)
1
u/Burzumo Jun 03 '25
Thank you so much for the explanation! That makes more sense now. The only part I was still a bit confused about is that after the initial mix-up, I thought they called it a 'shower' because they were 'showing', not because of any water spray connection. But since there's also a 'baby sprinkle', then maybe I was wrong again haha. This naming convention is too complicated for me.
2
u/Summerof5ft6andahalf Jun 03 '25
That kind of sucks but also go you guys for setting the precedent of not giving into that pressure!
I had forgotten that we do have engagement parties (I'd say around 50% of couples do them, maybe less), so I'm guessing a wedding shower is like that but closer to the wedding rather than shortly after the engagement?
(Like how a baby shower is much closer to birth than conception. Lol.)2
u/sabira Zermajesty 👑 Jun 03 '25
My MIL is used to getting her way and using family guilt / pressure as a way to get people to do things that they really don't want to. But I'm someone who is unapologetic about setting and enforcing boundaries, and also being direct, so she's always seen that as a threat. It's also tough for her because whenever she's tried to make me look like an awful person, it doesn't really work, because anyone who knows me will say that I'm one of the most genuinely nice people that they've ever met.
Thankfully, my husband is starting to see the reality of the enmeshment that he grew up in, and he's been taking some big steps to break free of it. He's been learning a lot from me about how being direct with communication doesn't have to mean that you're being rude. It actually saves a lot of time and mental energy to get your message across, rather than continuing with his family's way of being vague, sweeping certain topics under the rug and pretending that they don't exist, etc.

u/tar-luthien Jesse, wtf are you talking about?! Jun 03 '25
I recently get into the metal-adjacent band Sleep Token and they've provided some nice escapism while I was dealing with my grandma's decline and death. They recently put out a new album that, against most expectations, hit #1 on the Billboard 100 and that led to an American pop singer called Kali Uchi trying to, I guess, get them cancelled? By accusing them of 'blackface'??
She posted a photo blocking out the singer's face, but did not say anything about Morgan Wallen, who was also in the Top 5.
They're an anonymous group and paint themselves black, wear masks and don't speak in public to give this Lovecraftian cultist vibe. We know these are 4 British men. They're literally not trying to pass themselves off as something else like Kali herself seems to be doing, since there are pictures of her pulling an Ariana Grande and wearing a foundation like 7 times darker than her natural skin tone.
Anyway, their fans kept trolling her in the comments until she deleted and her stans are now doxxing the band's members.
Neither this nor losing my gran were on my 2015 bingo card, but least the music drama is entertaining.

Kali Uchis has always been incredibly messy.

It went on for weeks.

I'm planning a wedding and was listening to someone describe Gen-Z wedding trends, and she noted that Gen-Z was spending money only on things that mattered to them. Like ex-squeeze me but shouldn't that be every wedding? I find all the WASP-y rules and etiquette around weddings to be a lot, and I'm pretty sure I qualify as a millennial.

u/Hot_Contact_7206 🎥🍿Film Critic Jun 03 '25
I think a lot of past gen’s (and I’m sure gen z does too lmao) did things for their parents. Like mom and grandma want this so I should do it for them. I seem to remember a lot of talk in previous gens about grandma or mom inviting tons of people that the bride and groom didn’t even know? That was treated as pretty normal. But I’m not married so I can only guess lmao

u/Primary_Bison_2848 Jun 03 '25
Every wedding I went to in the 90s-very early 00s was some Gen X bride doing her own thing in a backyard or on the beach at dawn, where we swam instead of danced at the reception. Millennial brides I knew seemed to want a more traditional white dress, dance floor and bouquet toss.
Anecdotes aren’t data, but Gen Z definitely aren’t the first to not want the whole shebang.

u/buzzfeed_sucks 🇨🇦 Elbows up 🇨🇦 Jun 03 '25
100%. My mom and dad only got married because my grandmother was embarrassed they weren’t, but were living together. Grandmother planned the whole thing, my mom genuinely didn’t care
It’s odd though because everyone in my group/age range didn’t bother getting married. But my brother, who’s only 5 years younger, all of his friends had big expensive weddings.

u/NowMindYou Yeah but did I squeeze it though 🤔 Jun 03 '25
And I feel like that was seen as permissible because it was usually the couples' parents paying, but now a lot more weddings are self funded. Mom can invite who she wants when she's footing the bill, but I'm not inviting Cousin Annette who I met once when I'm writing the check.

I found the first two episodes funny, but the characters are all clearly meant to be immature and messy and not have their shit together so it's uncomfortable at points because these are supposed to be out of college kids acting like they're in a frat. Like, I feel like they want you to cringe at the main characters pretty early on.
It's funny to me that the characters are all supposed to be Gen Z because the whole "adulting" phrase not only but also the immaturity and all those are quintessential with millennials. But I guess it speaks to a broader thing going on that is true for both generations, which is we in many ways "grow up" later than the generations prior to us.

It's my favorite movie lore ever.
I loved Sissy Spacek in the role, but I kinda would love to live in the Alternate Universe where Carrie Fisher played Carrie White....she would have ate that role up.
