I dreamed how great I could achieve, but found out I am an ordinary person and it’s hard to manage my life. Now I admit how mediocre I am.

Did an AI try to recreate this image?

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

I think you're right. Aside from screenshots showing it looks wrong, here's the actual scene: https://youtu.be/yZszK_M_9_Y

It's not there, unless I'm missing it.

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

A couple of comments are suggesting that, but I remember this scene and just assumed it was a weird still from the movie.

I'm confused why someone would've recreated it, or modified part of it with AI, but it's possible.

[-] SmokedBillionaire@sh.itjust.works 128 points 3 days ago

Why would someone make this using AI when a still from the actual movie would have worked just fine?

[-] dgdft@lemmy.world 16 points 3 days ago

It’s a useful way to dodge automated copyright flagging systems if you’re trying to churn out meme page content and crosspost it on many platforms.

[-] redwattlebird@lemmings.world 7 points 2 days ago

It's been going down hill since I turned 25. I'm just closer to the end of the ride now.

[-] missandry351@lemmings.world 2 points 1 day ago

Turning 35 this year

[-] Elkot@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago

Turned 40 last month and to be honest I'm kinda struggling with depression right now

[-] EstonianGuy@lemm.ee 9 points 2 days ago

Time for a mid life crisis then

[-] Elkot@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Wish I could afford a midlife crisis

This is going to sound stupid, but during college, I took a lot of different types of math and history classes.

As humans, we invented years, and ages. Then we made milestones for what they represented. We said, there are 7 days in the week. We said, there are 52 weeks in a year. Some other BS happen and then culturally we said things like by age 30, you should be married. By age 40, you should have a family.

But imagine if we actually made a week 10 days? Or there's 30 weeks in a year? Suddenly, this is all BS numbers. Back to culturally, why is 30 a specific number? Or 40? Or any of these numbers?

For me, 40 is just a made-up number. It means nothing. The expectations around the number, bullshit. My friend is 55, and we went bar hopping. I hung out with a 70 and played Frisbee. I pitched go-karts and dressing up like Mario Kart to my 60yo neighbors.

Just made up numbers.

Of course, don't get weird and and try to shoehorn underage relationships. That's not the intent here.

[-] FilthyHookerSpit@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Sure, to an individual, the milestones seem stupid but they're the common milestones the average reach. Most people by 30 are married. Most by 40 have an established career and family. But to agree, who cares? We have one life and there's plenty of worry's to go around, so don't add keeping up with the Jones to the list.

[-] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Have you considered eating an entire large pizza and drinking a case of beer about it?

[-] Elkot@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

That just sounds like a Tuesday

As an 80s kid, hitting 40 was the best thing that ever happened to me. Shit that used to matter suddenly doesn't, like you flipped a lightswitch. You get new superpowers, and they're all bitchy. I recommend it to everyone.

[-] oppy1984@lemm.ee 8 points 2 days ago

Seriously, I'm 41 and over the last year I've slowed slipped into fuck it mode. Don't get me wrong, I still have plenty of things I care about, but so many little things I've just stopped caring about and my life is so much more relaxed because of it. It's amazing what hitting 40 can do to your mindset.

As someone who died at 28, spent six months in ICU fighting my way, I’m SO excited for 40! Growing old is a privilege, not everyone gets to

[-] PolydoreSmith@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Born in 1989. Whenever an older person says, “never get old!” I always say, “it’s better than the alternative!”

[-] bane_killgrind@slrpnk.net 7 points 3 days ago

Well la dee da lease on life, some of us have joint problems and it's going to get worse

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago

80s kid here: it's not that bad and mostly what you decide to make out of it. still playing magic the gathering, minecraft and irl boardgames :)

[-] protist@mander.xyz 15 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Shh! Quiet everyone!

...

I can almost make out the words...

[-] loomy@lemy.lol 29 points 3 days ago

a kid born in the 90s or someone who was a kid in the 90s (born in the 80s)

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 32 points 3 days ago

I've always considered it the latter.

[-] CyberEgg@discuss.tchncs.de 19 points 3 days ago

Same. It's about 90s culture, isn't it? I was born in the early 90s, I didn't consciously experience a lot of 90s things. My formative years were the 00s, therefore I'm not a 90s kid.

Doesn't scare me, cancer does.

[-] robocall@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Maybe I should have a child or buy a house by 40. Idk.

[-] v_krishna@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago

Turned 40 this past week. Was just bemoaning that most of my company don't get the :holdontoyourbutts: Samuel L Jackson emoji in slack and now this.

[-] Hyphlosion@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

I’ve already got the Sunday blues. And I don’t have the money to cope with a midlife crisis.

Thanks.

[-] kruhmaster@sh.itjust.works 19 points 3 days ago

I was a kid and an adult in the 90s, this is so confusing 😅

Now would probably be a good time to start stretching before bed and warming up in the morning.

[-] Beldarofremulak@discuss.online 9 points 3 days ago

Exercise, cut the sugar, drink water, sleep, orgasm.

The dreaded event happens in 8 days for me.... Its so close, I can hear it around the corner.

[-] slazer2au@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago

But the kid gets away but we won't get away from time.

[-] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 10 points 3 days ago

I didn't need this today....
