That album by Two Door cinema Club has such great energy

My internal voice is like that old voice of the twilight zone you know the black and white one like ooo

Oh oh oh this is just good the way the words are strung together. I’m so glad this is one of the 25 books I am def reading this year above all else. I hope it doesn’t disappoint (like almond was meh this this book is beautiful)

Okay now we begin in truth but that introduction was a work of art

At that point you got no savings, so if something goes wrong you screwed. So yeah I get it.

It's just our wages are...not great. An apartment can be 1k-1.7k depending upon where you live, groceries are 300-500, nevermind transportation costs a lot of places in USA you have to have a car, utilities? So at least 2500 a month which is 15/h & thats if you got no debt....

Let me add another reply, if we reverse the cost of inflation, a $60 game today would have cost probably $13. (prices increased by a factor of 4.8-4.9), so let's just round up to be mean. In 1990 that would be $24-$26 (2.3-2.6) and in 2001 a $60 would be half the price. So yeah games are cheaper.

Also for the USA there is probably some mark up because of tariffs. So...take that? I guess? GG.

The only thing that I do agree with is the whole charging money for just better frame for a game you already own. Like...give me new content or something. Give me new items and shit.

I get it the cost of living is has gotten awful, an apartment cost $1000 if you are lucky. Groceries are awful (the cost of eggs) the cost of meat is expensive. I saw an advert on TV recently and a new car payment was in the $490 or something (mine is $473) and my credit was...fair.

Games have been cheaper than ever. I remember begging my mom for a $50 gamecube game in 2001 (todays money would be worth $89). Minimum wage in 2001 was 6.25. You know what today's federal minimum wage is? 7.25 in the USA. I know Connecticut raised their min wage to what 15 or 16.25
