#41: Like Grandma, Like Granddaughter?
People like to say that you slowly turn into your parents as you get older. However, most Gen X would like to argue that they’re turning into their Depression-era grandparents instead. There’s no way to explain this natural progression, but it’s best not to question it and just go with the flow.
Before you know it, you’re sending people home with little gifts like food, Pyrex containers, and miscellaneous household items that they vaguely complimented one time. Life is short, so you might as well share as many of your resources as you can. How else are we supposed to survive in this world? We don’t think becoming just like our grandparents is so bad, after all.
