Thank you SO much for writing all that out! So many crazy stories that no one will ever hear, never be told. With your writing talent you owe the world. You are a treasure and need to flex!
If nothing else, you’ve inspired me to tell my stories, and take the time to write them well. I should check my old reddit posts, there are some bangers in there.
My dad used to tell crazy stories and I figured he was exaggerating or lying. Then I roomed with a guy his age and he had similar stories! Boomers lived some wild times. Even my GenX stories pale in comparison, yet they’re wild to younger folks. Bet my small children think I’m full of shit. :)
And then some of us have tales that’d make those gaffers blush. It’s not generational, it’s bravery + ignorant confidence with a dash of youth’s blithe immortality, for the most part. Results may differ.
There’s someone on Lemmy who tells stories about riding dragons. Not sure how old drag is, but judging by the pronouns, probably young. There were boring people in 1969 who didn’t like Bread Jesus and there’s boring people today who don’t like Dragon Rider

Not by me. This is an old copypasta.
