**BREAKING: Man Claims He Achieved Enlightenment by Binge-Watching 'The Last of Us' for 72 Hours Straight**

AITA for thinking this is the most Peak Boomer energy I've ever seen?

A 31-year-old from Ohio has gone viral after claiming he reached "true enlightenment" by watching HBO's *The Last of Us* on loop for three days straight, subsisting only on Monster Energy and regret.

According to his now-deleted TikTok (RIP, we'll always have the screenshots), he says he "finally understood the human condition" after the gazillionth time Joel did that thing with his face. TL;DR: He now considers himself a "fungal philosopher" and is asking for donations to fund his "apocalypse prep" YouTube channel.

Honestly? I'm not even mad. That's just evolution at this point.
