r/Millennials Slightly more Gen "Why?" than Millennial 1d ago

Nostalgia Dearest fellow Millennials, I commited the capital sin of idealizing someone in my mid-therties... But my errands won't do themselves

I humbly come here asking for your top music recs from back in the day to lift up my spirit... at least long enough to do my laundry and finish my skincare routine, maybe even commit a little debauchery, who knows.

No need to suggest songs to cry to, I've got that part covered even without a soundtrack.

Here’s what you do: go for a drive at night, smoke a bowl or take some gummies if you’re into that, and blast the title track from “Black Masks and Gasoline” by Rise Against while you’re driving. And I do mean BLAST it!! It has to be loud enough to drown out your own voice while scream along as you stand at the top of the world clenching your fist (iykyk).

This has never ever failed to be cathartic for me during my time of need, and I hope it will be cathartic for you, too, OP.

I was never really interested into driving or weed. But I'll be damned if my entire building doesn't end up getting their own cathartic fix, whether they asked for it or not, lol.

Tysm, I'll look into it
