Yeah flex culture back then was only limited to your school and your network, now it’s bombarded 24/7 on tiktok/IG.

I miss the days when:
Kids wanted to be something else than a youtuber/content creator.
Nobody trying to get famous shilling yet another generic hotpot/bbt place with the same monotone voice.
There was no rampant cheating using AI in university.
Car forums not facebook groups.
Beetles and rolexes had a good discount.
Craigslist instead of facebook marketplace.

Sigh, time to eat my metamucil and get my steps in.

Jokes aside from my circle, the ones that “made it” locally were in medicine, even then their parents paid their tuition and $ for downpayment. The rest of us had to leave BC to get experience and come back. The ones that did came back was only due to family, it’s too lucrative in the US to come back to Canada.
