In addition to the wave of weddings and babies, apparently, this is the age where friends who have been married for a while start opening up their marriages??

lol we were totally sober but we were going to the bar around the corner while we wait for a slot to open up (and for nerves). that idea was immediately shot down by the artist

I thought you weren’t allowed to get a tattoo while drunk because it messes with the quality of the tattoo itself. I swear I remember being told this by a tattoo shop in SF.

i actually don’t think the “average” american millennial man had a nazi phase. it’s not some boys will be boys shit. this makes me side eye you and your friend group, sounds like a personal problem

The average American millennial man has been a neocon, a pacifist, a liberal, a libertarian, a communist, a nazi, and I believe now most of us are back around to liberal again. This isn't a defense of platner it's just weird how normal this shit is for guys that age.

I have a random obsession with cheese curds right now and it’s getting to a point where I’m having them multiple times a week and trying to see who is down to go to random breweries so I can get my hands on some cheese curds.

Original photo from post showing a well dressed man with a blazer, hat and umbrella standing next to police. I have helpfully circled the man on the photo and drawn arrows pointing at him to help law enforcement
