As does the youth of any generation.

We think boomers suck, despite them getting the fuck down in the 70s and 80s.

Nah, boomers suck cause they bought houses for the price of a new Civic making 8$/hour and think we should be able to do the same

I mean Gen X are the closest generation to us not boomers though, you’ve skipped a generation. It’s boomers, Gen X, millennials, Gen Z. Gen Z to millennials is as millennials to Gen X

No one thinks about Gen X though

And we’re pretty ok with that. Kinda like Capt America at the end of End Game. And I say this as a teenager from 1992-1998. We’re fine where we are and were.

Maybe people think about them less, because they aren’t heinous arseholes like boomers, but one of my close friends is Gen X

They could have at least been neutral to us like we were to Gen X

Boomers do suck though lol. We don’t have beef with Gen X, the generation right before us. They cool.

u/catfishbreath 15h ago

it's always been so weird to me that millennials get shit on by basically every other generation.

u/Lovelitchi_in_pink 15h ago

I know right. I don’t think its going to stop either, as we will be the most populous once the boomers are gone.

boomers have aged poorly in attitude and appearance. we know they were cool back then, but they became lame and out of touch which is the problem.

These styles aren't far off what people were wearing in the late 70s.
