What caught my attention in this thread and the watch gift thread was the out of character posts from the couple individuals whose recent tone belies the disposition of their posts from the past 10 years. It's unfortunate that post-2020 (or even post-2016) has taken a toll on certain folks here and in the real world. I hope for their sake that this edginess is limited through their connections on internet and they don't conduct themselves this way in real life. I wish them well and hope they find less stress in their life.
As for reply-all: In my experience (as someone who works with gen-zers/millennials/boomers- some uber intelligent/some not so much/some on the spectrum), I find it an issue that afflicts every demographic.

Don't look up on Netflix is a comical example. "Don't you know all you people are gonna die?!!!!" Nahhhhh
