I wonder whether that list of twenty most stressful things was a list created by the pollsters and the victims of the poll just had to sort them. I can’t imagine any free form poll of most stressful things for Millenials not having global warming or Trump as the primary stressors to the brainwashed yutes.

People are like old radios.

Tune to any station and the volume level is about the same from one to the other. But the signals that arrive at the radio are of different strenghs so why aren’t weaker ones at lower volume?

Answer is the radio’s automatic gain control which increases the gain of weaker signals.

The earlier radios had the annoyance that between stations you’d get noise. Why? Because with no real signals the radio amplified the noise thinking it was a signal. Newer radios recognize in-between states and squelch the volume.

Could people be the same way? Something will occupy our thoughts. If nothing “real” then “noise” is amplified.

And...these are the ones, earning minimum wage, that will be pushing us around in a wheelchair at the old-folks home.

Our society now gives so much attention, compassion and moral authority to victims that kids routinely fake being victims to get said attention and status.

Cyberbullying’s chilling trend: Teens anonymously target themselves online, study finds

No wonder a lot of the college students, adult SJWs and college professors fake hate crimes to justify political demands. And each of these hundreds of fake hate crimes is harped on endlessly while the retraction is rarely mentioned locally.

That you see so many faked bullying and hate crime incidents makes the world worse than it is.

Number 16: “Check engine light coming on” the dashboard.

That's definitely a big 'stressor'. I used to drive an old beat up '95 Mustang. There was always something wrong with her, but the last two years or so I had her, Phoebe did good and kept strong!
