Lemmy, let's not bring over that reddit /r/nothingeverhappens bullshit. If you don't believe it, cool keep it to yourself. Otherwise it's just a funny post, move on.

Been seeing a ton of this nothing ever happens attitude lately

I'd guess the "nothing ever happens" people are young.

When I was in my early 20s, I met my dad for the first time. He'd tell tall stories I could not believe. Not long after I had a roommate the same age, same tall stories.

Now that I'm that age, I got tall stories. If you choose an adventurous (slightly irresponsible) life, and get off the couch now and again, life is truly stranger than fiction.

No you haven't.

I frequent c/GreenText and people have that attitude all the time, including when the post is about the most normal shit you would hear from a boring friend.

People are like this also irl. Sure, there was a subreddit for it, but the nothingeverhappens attitude is one of the things i experienced in any country I've been in.
