You made the computers and phones that will lead to automation and the loss of even more jobs? Or did you make the computers and phones that cause people to work longer hours for basically the same pay and not even have the ability to turn it off due to their jobs following them wherever they go? Either way, great work.

Think about someone born in the south just before the civil war. Let’s say 5 years before. That son of a bitch would probably still be hard enough to fight in WWII


At the age of 87?

Is this the weekly thread where we make a bunch of generalizations about other generations? Cause boomers were given everything on a silver platter then fricked over everyone after them.





they still got drafted during Vietnam. I'm sorry, but giving up your life for that was pretty shitty that no one after them had to experience.

I don't know. I'm a millennial, but I kinda feel like the generations that died in the Civil War, WWI, and WWII kinda had it worse

Lol. I'd much rather be a millennial today than some fricking farmer in the dust bowl during the depression. Or just about any other place on earth prior to 1900.

People make up shite to complain about these days. That's when you know you've got it made.

If you made it through though, you were able to experience what will probably be the most prosperous time in the US.


Yeah, but you still had to go through the shittiest childhood of any average American outside of the Civil War or if you were unfortunate enough to be enslaved.

What don't I like, exactly?

I love my privilege. I strive to make my kids even more privileged.
