I'm just a 20 year old guy, AMA

Edit: thanks everyone for asking me questions I had a lot of fun doing this and answering all of them. You are all very kind and friendly and it’s much appreciated :)

Feel free to continue asking me things if you see this, I will continue answering as long as they come because I think it’s a lot of fun.

  • Did noone ask what Linux distro you are on?

    • Nobody has yet! I’ve only been getting into Linux quite recently, I have a Microsoft surface laptop studio that I’d like to put Linux Mint on, but I’ve been a little scared of pulling the trigger so I haven’t yet :(. I did just get an old desktop pc from my dad because he replaced it, I was gonna put Mint on that but it was having some kind of issue with the bios, I ended up putting Kubuntu on it.

      • But jokes aside, it's cool that you are trying to make the jump, just stay on Ubuntu until you are familiar enough with Linux to make another jump to a better distro.

  • Can an unstoppable force move an unmovable object?

    • I think I’m lacking actual ways to answer this but if I had to guess I feel like they’d just cancel each other out and just disappear

    • No OP, but the question is flawed. Both can't exist in the same universe according to the standard definition, unless you made a custom definition which would decide whether it can or not.

      • I know it is a known paradoxical question lol. But it is interesting to hear those who try to answer. I asked ChatGPT this to see if it could eventually give me something but it just kept regurgitating references to the paradox.

  • Skirts, long or short? What is the name of the character that dies first in breaking bad? Astrological sign? Would you be able to recognize lenf nodes if you looked at them with a microscope? Why 20?

    • Short long medium, it doesn’t really matter to me. I think the first character that dies in breaking bad is Crazy 8s partner or cousin or whatever he is, but I don’t remember his name. I would not be able to recognize a lenf node in a microscope, I don’t even know what that is. 20 because I was born 20 years ago.

        1. Based, 2. I forgor crazy 8 completely, 3. My mistake, i thought they would be called lenf but English did it's thing and it's lymph (it was on our exam today, and none of my roommates got it right. The future of medicine is bright 😁)
  • What do you want to do with your life

    • I really wanna be a dad, and my dream is to own a record store / cafe / thrift store kinda thing

      • Thats cool. You are still young so be sure to live a bit yourself before the kid(s) come along. I'd suggest to travel a bit if you can. I hope you get where you want to be. 🙏

  • What job, if any, do you have? Do you like it or not, and why?

    • I have been unemployed for about 8 months now, I took a 9 month 600 hour marketing course that got me several certifications and helped me start my own projects but have yet to get any employment out of it. My marketing education is actually what helped me open my eyes to how I should care for my privacy more than I do and help others do the same.

      I’ve used what I’ve learned to help grow my own projects, but in a way that is respectful and not malicious. Using it for “good instead of evil” if you will. I honestly don’t think I could work professionally in marketing in my right mind, because most people don’t do it the respectful way and it’d honestly make me feel like a bad person, so I’ve actually been mainly looking for jobs outside of it, or only applying for agencies and companies that I think seem trustworthy.

      But, I’ve been trying to keep myself busy in the time with those projects, kind of trying to turn that into my job. I have a music blog that I run, I do some freelance writing, and more recently have been pursuing a YouTube, all three of which have seen pretty decent success. I’ve been fortunate enough to be in a situation where I have the freedom to pursue that as I continue my job search, and I have a deep appreciation for those that help and support me. It’s frustrating and sad to do so many interviews week to week and hear nothing back, but I have a great support system so it’s not so bad. And yes, although I do wish I had better income, I do like my job it’s pretty fun :)

      tldr, I’ve been lucky enough to use my education to support my own projects as my “job” while I pursue a real job, and I do like it. Sorry for the long and complicated answer, I had a lot to say about it.

  • What music do you like? Also, are you happy?

    • I’m pretty open to any and all music but my favorite genres are rap and hip hop, ex the roots, Tyler the Creator etc, jazz, rock and a bunch of its subgenres, and yeah just a bunch of other stuff. And I do think I’m pretty happy with my life right now. 2025 is off to a pretty great start.

  • What minor social misstep have you taken that will haunt you for the rest of your life?

    • When I was very young (like 4 years old) I was insistent that the game “Parcheesi” was pronounced “Par Chess Ee” and my family will never let me forget that
