The living room furniture that we bought about four years ago is falling apart. And the mattress has gone from too firm to sleep on, to too squishy for good sex, which makes me think it’s rapidly deteriorating as well.

I drive an 8 year old minivan but it runs like a chitty chitty bang bang.

I think it is harmful to perpetuate the fallacy that millennials are broke bc they make poor choices.

I try hard not to over wash my clothes- often wearing them 3-4 times between washes - bc they pill up, shrink, etc.

The about three years ago I replaced all my frayed and funky wedding gift towels with a fresh name-brand set from a department store and lo and behold, they are all frayed and funky already as well.

I have another example! Last year my washer went out. We actually ordered a part from amazon and my husband used YouTube to replace it. But the washer still didn’t work. So we consulted a repair company, but their cost was just as much as a replacement machine of the exact same model, which the store still carried bc the first was only a couple years old!
