Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

Wait a second, your grandma played wolf3d? Grandma?! Am I old Lemmy?
We're all old to someone in school
If she was in her 20s when Wolfenstein came out in 1992, then a year later she could have had a kid, and 20 years later her kid could have had a kid, and then 13 years later the grandkid makes this post
I was 21 when Wolfenstein came out. You had to have like a $10,000 (adjusted for inflation) computer to run it. Some older nerds I knew had that. And they and their wives were often metal heads. I was grunge.
I tend to find metal heads are pretty well off too
No, you are young and hip 😎
The hip replacement, perhaps.
My neighbor who is in her 80s used to play NES. So them being a grandmother doesn't really factor in one way or the other.
