I'm pushing half a century in an industry that is not kind to old guys. I try to fend it off but every now and then it hits me. I'm pretty sure this is not unique to my life experience, or it wouldn't have a term :-)

Every time I see a HexBear or Lemmygrad instance post. These people are so braindead that I just can't accept life anymore.

See this is amusing to me since im not even American. I dont really care that much about dunking on libs to be honest. I will fully admit that some of my comrades (its a nice gender neutral word) on hexbear like dunking on libs a lot...maybe even a bit to much. If you want to have a nice polite conversation about anything my dms are open or we can have it here.
