I sort of wonder if the next generation will still romanticize Japan in quite the same way. We're past the peak trendy-products era of Weird Sony and the Toyota MR2, anime is no longer a secret exotic thing, and it feels like if you want "15 years ahead of us optimistic techno future", you could easily slide in Chongqing or Seoul instead of Tokyo.

As far as I can tell, gen z's more into Korea, Japan already seems passé (being in a midlife crisis meme doesn't help)

Nani the fuck did you just fucking iimasu about watashi, you chiisai bitch desuka? Watashi’ll have anata know that watashi graduated top of my class in Nihongo 3, and watashi’ve been involved in iroirona Nihongo tutoring sessions, and watashi have over sanbyaku perfect test scores. Watashi am trained in kanji, and watashi is the top letter writer in all of southern California. Anata are nothing to watashi but just another weaboo. Watashi will korosu anata the fuck out with vocabulary the likes of which has never been mimasu’d before on this continent, mark watashino fucking words. Anata thinks anata can get away with hanashimasing that kuso to watashi over the intaaneto? Omou again, fucker. As we hanashimasu, watashi am contacting watashino secret netto of otakus across the USA, and anatano IP is being traced right now so you better junbishimasu for the ame, ujimushi. The ame that korosu’s the pathetic chiisai thing anata calls anatano life. You’re fucking shinimashita’d, akachan.

I picked drinking and having a band. Except that's also what I did from age 16 to 40. Maybe I've always been in crisis.

None of the above?

Strength training and returned to a hobby of my younger years - cars.

E: wouldn’t even call it a midlife crisis. Just finally having a little time to have a hobby and understanding that being healthy will extend what quality years I have left.

I fell into running...hard. I went from almost no physical exercise to running marathons over the space of 2 years. Did my first 100km ultra in December.

I feel like I'm doing the midlife crisis thing wrong. I'm factionless atm. I'm also too tired to have a crisis. My time is spent going to work and trying to survive in a field that is increasingly difficult to survive in.

I'm jealous some people have time and energy to have a full on crisis on the side. You lucky, lucky bastards.

What's with the popularity of pickleball these day? What happened to badminton?

People won’t stop laughing when you refer to the shuttle-cock.

So now we say “Slap that pickle, Chet!” And no one giggles.

Grad school but I can't afford it. Or running but my knees hurt so I got way too into bicycles

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

My closest one would be running. I started doing 5 minutes a day on an old exercise bike where the computer and thus the resistance motor didn't work in september, gradually adding more time as I got into better shape.

It was when I got a new one that actually works in mid January that I REALLY got going, though, and I've put in 90 hours for a total of 3813 km (2369 miles) since then.

For context, that's more than the straight line distance between Washington DC and Los Angeles or almost the distance between London, England and Gao, Mali.

As far as mid life crises go, that along with eating a lot better ain't so bad 😁

What do you do if running hurts your knees? Just do it anyway?

I have tried changing footwear but generally if I walk a lot my knee will hurt. Doctor said thats just how I’m built I guess.

I would like to get into it. I guess I could just do NSAIDs?

[–] asdasd@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

have you thought about trying cycling?

Maybe do strength training and stretching exercise first that target the leg muscles. A lot of knee pain comes from imbalanced leg muscles. Like when one side of the leg is too stiff or too weak.

[–] olafurp@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Running is in most cases good for knee health in the long term. It could be that you just need to take it slower to build up the knee strength.

Important: If you feel pain, stop and wait for it to recover.

What about the stereotype of buying a flashy car? Arguably that’s the one I fell into: spending far more on a car than I ever have to get something flashy and different, and purely thinking of me for what felt like the first time in my life.
