The sizes of apartments on TV were also a blatant lie.
You guys have breakfast?
I’ll rather get my full 4 hours of sleep instead.
4 full hours of sleep and you only skip one meal?! Look at this guy living the life over there.
They lived across the hall from each other. It actually made sense in this case.
The biggest lie tv told me was how much quicksand would feature in my life.
And the lie of someone getting knocked on the head and passing out for an hour. If you’re unconscious for that long after a head injury, then you’re not going to wake up again.
We did this in college when we all lived in the same apartment complex. It’s was a whole thing where whoever had the latest class would cook eggs every Monday and Thursday morning, and it lasted an entire year before it fell apart due to various commitment issues.
An apartment the size of a barn in the East Village at that.
I never have breakfast. The Kelloggs company lied when they said it’s the most important meal of the day.
They are not wrong though. Just not with their shit.
They are wrong though. No meal is more important than any other. It’s different for everyone and pretending breakfast is the most important for all and sundry is just a marketing ploy with no basis is truth.
Look, I get your point, scheduled meals have been standardized by society as a means of production. You can go to work without having breakfast or even dinner and that’s fine. However, when it comes to me, I prefer a big-ass breakfast to fuel my day rather than a big-ass dinner that leaves me a miserable sleep.
Posting when you’re supposed to be working?
I’d argue there’s not a single relatable thing in any of these sitcoms and the moment they stopped pretending to be and were about us watching the misery of four of five rich yuppies suffer, sitcoms had a resurgence.
Seinfeld went this way after Larry David departed, but Arrested Development was the first.
Idk about resurgence, there’s still a lot of traditional sitcoms on TV. They all get like 7-8 seasons, they’re all the same kinda trash. I think the difference is just that we now occasionally get good ones.
It wasn’t that much of a lie for Gen-X in tech. In the company I was with in Austin, we use to have a breakfast (from taco trucks or delivered). Employee significant others were welcome to join. You might think that it doesn’t count because they were co-workers, but we were also close friends. All around the same age, working together, gaming together, partying together, etc. Even after we switched jobs, a lot of us continued to meet up for breakfast, and I am still close friends with most.
Breakfast at work is one thing, breakfast before work is a whole nother level of time commitment. I’m pretty sure I started skipping breakfast around the time I started working a 9-5
Driving over to your friend’s place to have breakfast before work is just insane!
It’s really hard to shoot six people eating in their cars during their commute to work.
Eating cereal on their way to work like god intended.
You can make it happen, with planning and willing friends!

Ain’t no one got time for that.
My social batteries would be drained before leaving the house :D
People with apartments (& work hours) like that just might, idk what rich folk do.
Eh, it does happen from time to time tbh
