Soon I'll die and then I won't have to worry about it anymore

We also got to see the rise of the Internet and the home computer revolution, as well as smartphones later on. We are the last ones to know what the world was like before all that. When you had to bike your ass to the local library just to look up a cake recipe, and "please allow six weeks for delivery" was the standard.

Anyway, does anyone wanna play Pogs? I got some cool new slammers here...

I'm glad I wasn't born in the ww1/2 generation.

I'll take economic and ecological collapse over trench warfare any day of the week. I get to type this critique in air conditioning, while those dudes drowned in shell crater cesspools just trying to take a shit.

Not to discount how horrible our future will be. At least compared to what our ancestors went though, we've got it good.

Hate to break it to them, but the worst is likely yet to come.

I feel lucky to have bought a house in the sliver of time that I had when things lined up perfectly. Fuck

Not even a joke, I miss the time when a virus was our biggest concern. That may be insensitive to people who had friends or family die because of it or who live in a country with shitty access to vaccines or health care in general though.

One little crisis and my mom got scared, she said "you're moving to your uncle and aunt in Europe"

Actually, we're well on our way to a 4th economic crash.

But wait, it gets worse!

Damn, this image really makes me feel sorry for Will Smith. He's so pussy whipped, and it's not even funny. His wife is in Scientology and basically uses the church and the threat of taking his kids away and hiding them within the church to get Will to toe into line, so much so that she cucked him with their son's rapper friend (who she groomed after he his mother died). This image is from her "red table" internet talk show where she had Will on and they both said they were ok with her sleeping around.

Still though, he gave me my wifi SSID, "KeepMyWiFisNameOutYourF-ingMouth". It literally only just fits lol.

laugh/sobs in living with parents

It's definitely making me bitter towards the concept of owning property

You'd think that people who face a crisis every few years would be familiar enough with the word to know that the plural is "crises".

Ah yes, lost two jobs in three months, waiting for my rent to go up, and live in a tent while at uni for the next three years. There is no affordable housing where I live, and employers can fire us at any time. Makes total sense.

As an a vintage millennial I can say w confidence: there will be more and you should prepare yourself. Lol

At least I don't have to worry about kids.

My retirement plan is to go out in a blaze of glory fighting back the fascists in the Water Wars.

While being called millenials.

I want to move out of my too expensive to repair "starter home" that I got when I was pretty fresh out of college thinking - get the house now, pay off the mortgage and then I won't have to deal with that when I'm older. 15 years of debt slavery later I'm finally "debt free" and when I go to look for homes under $250k and just see 1 tiny run down house smaller and 3xs older than mine in a 40 mile radius

We'll all basically be Joel in the coming social collapse.

Shit this hits hard...

Why do I read these threads anyway. Am I that sadistic that I want to see myself depressed?

I'm already dead and nothing's changed

HAHA We are not doing well....

Only 3? Feels like more...

Why wait?

And they even got rid of our damn plastic straws! Can't even enjoy my drinks without having to suck on a flaccid tube. I'd prefer if they made the lid paper instead.

Oh so true, not like our forefathers who had everything sooo easy ... /s

In the plus side, the older people got a lot of stuff sorted out in advance, worth appreciating if only to keep a clear perspective

We live in the most peaceful time in history and we carry the collective knowledge of humanity in our pockets. We have many problems to solve now and in the future but some perspective is useful.

Edit: this thread screams ignorance

Story of every generation, bub. I had the oil crises, 80s collapse, I forgot what it was called in the nineties, dotcom bubble, 2008 banking crisis, and the last few

Returning theme? One big dip per decade. 80s and 08 where the nastiest though.

Wars? One every 5-10 years. Too many to remember.

Yeah, I'm getting old.

And that guy in your pic is 54, pushing 55. Nowhere near 35.

So get your shit together, and take another one on the chin. The working class gets our asses kicked financially ever since money was invented. It's how the system works.

Aww poor millennials having a tough time, what's the word ... coping?

Get a skill.
