Instead of born in 1992, born in 1892 instead.

I don't know why but I just feel like I'm in the wrong time period. Technology has consumed everybody and people just have no class.

I had a kid say to me "Hey motherfucker" 2 times, a 10 year old mind you, sitting in the passenger seat inside a pickup truck with his trashy dad.

I look at everything around me and people just turn me off from all the social events today. No one dresses in class anymore and bad people are becoming more and more common.

I'm not saying that things a hundred years ago were perfect, but I'd say things were more.... simple. And a lot had yet to be invented. Land was up for grabs, to purchase. This place was so damn peaceful a hundred years ago, and now it's full of buildings and an inbred of people.

I guess I just wish I lived in the pioneering days of this town, see things that no longer exist, meet people that are long dead, fully understand their story and maybe even befriend like minded individuals who possibly share the same class as me.

I guess that I'm so unhappy with the way things are going in my current life that I just dream for the impossible.

Is there a word for this btw?

I wish I wasn't born at all, but you know.

you wouldn't want to be Armenian in 1892

I'll be fine in Glendale and Tropico during that year.

oh ok, thought you were doing some relative life replacement thing.

No no... Like, I still want to be me, just have the numbers change so I can be in this different era. I would have had a job and lived in a nice area here if I did, and Glendale would be like a small town because back in 1915, it was a low population and this city was just starting out. Everyone knew each other and whatnot, especially the founder that brought all the businesses together here.

If I also trained to be a pilot, I'd be invited to a party where the invitation is air only, and I'd go see the founder Mr Brand himself and enjoy some drinks and talk with other pioneers.

It's amazing how much shit changes in a hundred years.

I wish I was born in 2003

Why so you could be 12?

so I could grow up with better media

the best things I had when I was a kid were Avatar and Fairly OddParents

I wish I was born in 1986 and not 1996

Nothing was wrong with them, I was saying they were the good shows. I was never a fan of Edd Ed and Eddy or any of that, tbh

And yeah, the past doesn't enamour me that much. If anything, I'd want to be born in the 70s. I feel like that's the period of pop culture that's pretty much the foundation of our tropes today.

If you want to experience the 70s, you want to be born in the 60s then. Or 50s.

Why do you think I chose the date 1892 to be born in? So I could experience 1915 at 22 years of age and 1927 when I'm 34 years of age.

70s was a good time. Star Wars came out in 1977.

Honestly, it doesn't sound all that great 100 years ago

Present day is kinda neat

Aren't you Armenian?

100 years ago you'd be treated like shit for being a minority, refused jobs, education and whatever medical services available at the time, and then drafted into WW1.

Im k with the era I was born into
