All I heard was people bitching about it and going outside with any excuse they had.

Most people social life didn't really change during the pandemic, thus the pandemic.
I remember my neighbors, whose mother was a cancer patient, would still had family meetups for diner all weeks.

It may just be generational changes. I do not socialize same as my parents, and they do not socialize same as their parents.

The wind is strong enough to mitigate the radioactives dust but not enough to thorn the suit
The local militia was bombed and we are not expecting raids for a few days
There is a less contaminated water source a few miles north and I want to check the community there
WHEN I WAS YUR AGE I WAS STAYIN AT HOME
I love you mom but I should have sold you to the slave trader

Better than being called a boomer or a boomer I suppose, we'd still roll out eyes at them regardless.
Ok boomer

I suppose this makes sense if we all lived in Fallout 1.
Which, by the way, I hope to Holy hell nobody ever, ever, ever has to live in Fallout 1.

I just worked through the entire thing. Woooo! /s

I would guess most people socialize less as the get older. Having kids and constantly drowning in work and household obligations will kill your social life real quick.

Me too. That's why I am still salty about it. Just stay home and it can be fixed sooner.

I definitely became less domesticated during the pandemic and I’m still not where I was beforehand, socially. I was even in my late twenties when the pandemic hit, so I should be less susceptible than teenagers/younger children were. It was worth it not to kill a bunch of people by spreading disease, but it wasn’t easy.
That said, I also lived alone and went over 8 months without seeing another person in the flesh, which is unlikely to be the case for younger people.

When I finally had job and money to go out and finally enjoy my life, pandemic happened. But I had saved even MORE money because I stayed home with my parents during those times. However, I'm now too old to go out lol.

I'm not talking about menopause, but about the scenario in the meme. Some millennials already had children five years ago, so what age target are we talking about when we say "when I was your age"?
I'm and old millennial but even some of my younger friends already have teenagers that lived through the pandemic.
I'm 32 and having a kid soon, so not sure where you see the problem? Sure some of them had kids very early, but that doesn't change the fact many didn't.

not sure people will want to go out that much, that oxygen flask is kind of heavy, the mask is annoying and then there's the heat...
Can't risk being captured and having my water extracted.

How much of that is modern tech and social media? I'd argue the Gen Z xoome meeting blank stare can be blamed as much on tech as the pandemic. This is the first generation that grew up living as much online as they do in the "real world"

Depends on what type of socialization you're referring to. Socializing with coworkers and other parents through your kids activities is not uncommon.

I think, a lot. The shift during the pandemic of requesting uniquely online presence definitely sped up a trend that could already be detected. And because it was unprecedented, “adults” weren’t able to guide younger ones along the transition.
