My vacation is not moving for a few days in my apartment playing video games eating ultra processed frozen foods that were on sale Edit: for anyone saying this is an incredible vacation you need to think hard about how it's not. Years ago people used to be able to go places and do things. Now we're numb.

Even I, someone who loves videogames, want to leave the house sometimes. I have been sheltering in place, to avoid spending money.

...it sucks.

Sounds like a good time to me

ETA: This was meant more as a joke, specifically from own neurodivergent and introverted perspective. I do agree that people in general are more tired in modern life and that is arguably quite bad.

The bar is so low compared to my parent's days.

yeah but that should be a possibility on any random weekend, not a special occasion

That sounds incredible.
