>>523935429Lol they are scared of getting wasted and making fools of themselves on camera lmfaoGeneration of PUSSIES
>>523935429And
>>523935478Is it this, or is it that they don't go out at all and spend their time staring at a glowing rectangle like (You) are now?
>>523935478>they are scared of getting wasted and making fools of themselves on cameraYou never heard of tick tock
>>523935429So only zoomers drinking are my nieces and nephews?? of course I get stuck with the pack of losers that can’t get with the times.
>>523935429Im drinking right now, also am a zoomer so you kikes should thank me for holding up your economy lmao
>>523935544>Im drinking right nowProve it
>>523935429I got drunk once and it was horrible, so I don't drink in excess. Never touched a club and never will since they're vile.
>>523935478drinking was the personality of your entire generation, pathetic piece of shit
>>523935429Because those poor fucks barely have any money to spend.
>>523935544Good goy. Good bitch to the alcohol.
>>523935587Nah how about i just type like a drunkard so you can laugh at me lmao
When modern people all.suck, higher concentrations of them are.t going to make things better.
>>523935429Then why am I dancing with gen z sluts?
>>523935722Hey I've been trying to quit. I've started to be able to not drink for 3 days in a row before drinking again to calm the shakes.
>>523935429>going to the bar to pay $10 for someone to take off the bottle cap on a beer I could have bought for $2 myself at the store
>>523935429I'm 34, so millennial. Recovering alcoholic. I don't really remember between the ages of 16-21. There really was no limit to my drinking. At 130 pounds I could easily drink 40 ounces of rye whiskey a day.Shit's fucking poison. Withdrawal is terrifying.
>>523935429
>>523935936That's good. You can do it.
>>523935429I think zoomers are extra picky about picking up cultures and traditions. Interestingly, they question the merit of EVERYTHING. Fashion, TV, music, celebrities, rules, finances etc. it’s both good and bad. So they also question drinking, party, drug culture. Without a little influence from older friends or family, they simply don’t see the benefit of drinking and drugs. They’d rather just have their vapes and energy drinks because they taste better. Beer and liquor is an acquired taste and they have no interesting in going through the break in period.
>>523935936If you want tips, I can help. I've been sober 13 years. Good work.
>>523936058But you're paying for the "experience" and "ambience"
>>523936235I hope so anon. The world has become a hell of alot more interesting, this last year alone has been crazy. Think it's about time to sober up for me and my family.
>>523935429I'm zoomzoom, and I don't drink because it makes me feel like physically sick, which is probably from the SSRIs they put all of us on. The same nerve-killing effect alcohol gives me is achievable by smoking weed, without feeling sick after.
>>523936058Also this. The cheapest drink you can get at a bar is a lite beer and it will still be $5+. MAYBE 3-4 if it’s a shit liter at happy hour. Cocktails? Lol I’m not paying $12 for a splash of cheap whiskey and a splash of cheap mixer. Not to mention tipping culture doesn’t get any more pressured than bar tips. Bartenders act like they are in trenches ducking mortar shells.
>>523935429It's all due to loneliness.No friends or dates to go to the club with? No reason to go.>dude just pick up chicks at the barDoesn't happen unless you're Chad. For 90% of people, going to a bar or club alone just makes you look like an autistic creep.
>>523936267To be honest I would appreciate anything that will help. I know i drink because it's a habit. I don't fill my time with anything else. When I'm not drinking I have to just shut out myself from everyone and focus on a old video game that I've never played before to keep my mind working. It goes a million miles an hour when I'm not drinking. I know it's withdrawals that's why I'm just going to keep trying to just stay sober for a few days and give my body a chance to heal, however when the withdrawals get to bad to deal with I will drink.
>>523936467Girls got WAY too cocking bragging about how they use men for free drinks and food. They literally outed themselves for clout and now men are keeping their cash for themselves
>>523935429https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BJ85oWVjv8Nightlife is collapsing because men are not showing up anymore.
>>523936556What's your average daily amount?Have you went to the doctor for withdrawal meds?
>>523936556Not an addict, but when I take a break from beer and alcohol I just don’t buy it. The best way to start shaking a habit is to remove it from your environment. Also fill the void with something positive. Going on walks, spending time with my wife, something constructive. May not help full blown addiction, but it may help.
They're all too fucking expensiveentrence to a club is an insane feeevery beer there is insanely expensive, they charge for 1 beer the same amount you'd be able to make dinner for a week it's just not possible to pay to go to a bar on normal wages anymore, its far too expensive (unless you work in IT or medicine) young people make min to median wages AT BEST, you only start to make lots of money in mid 30syou have to be hitting 40 to have enough cash to attend bars and nightclubs these days
Why would you, during a Republican administration
>>523936771He's going back due to withdrawal. It's not fun.
>>523935429Alcohol is only fun with other people, Gen Z has no friends and no money for clubs. Women in Gen Z on the other hand are all alcoholics because Chad buys drinks for the table.
>>523935532They control when the camera is turned on
>>523936757My current daily amount is a micky of whiskey. (375ml). I've haven't drank the last few days but today I needed it. I have talked to my doctor, we are doing a physical and that shit in January to assess where I'm at. I've asked for withdrawal help, however he is unwilling to persicribe benzos so I just figured cold turkey would be OK at the amount I'm drinking.
Zoomers are smart then. Why go out to risk violence and rejection and pay a lot for it, when the choices are usually going alone (as a freak) or going with your own friend group and sticking to it (then why go out in the first place?).
>oh no they're not wasting a week's pay on shitty booze at DA CLUB only to be stabbed by a nigger in the bathroomfuck clubs. even bars are trashy but they're not turbo gay like clubs
>>523936771Agreed, I recently got a cat from my dad because he wanted another and the older one he had kept trying to attack him so it was either I took him or he went back to the adoption place so I took him and he has been nothing but a blessing for sorting my shit I guess. I've been trying to fill the habit with something else it just feels boring if it's not something I like doing, which I still barely know what that even is.
>>523936967It should be OK to cold turkey that amount. It's just going to really suck. Once you hit day 5, things will improve.Getting sober is the easy part. Staying sober is ridiculously hard for the first year. If you believe in God, AA is good. If not, Smart Recovery is good as well.I didn't do either. I forced myself. And believed I did have the willpower.
>>523937156I think brewery’s are also taking over. They are calmer, more comfortable and friendly, have good beers rotating, and are decently priced relative to other alcohol vendors. Only problem is people bring their damn children
This is bullshit, raves are more popular than ever and LSD has never been easier to find
>>523937219I think I'm walking the same path. I won't accept help at this point. I need to do it myself.
>>523937323I did do detox for 9 days, actually. It was good to get away from all temptations. But then I got super paranoid due to withdrawal and left.
>>523937175It’s really hard to jump into a new hobby. Especially if you’re on a tight budget. Your motivation is at an all time low too. For me going back to school and eventually getting a part time job at the school quickly took up all my free time and it made it easier to leave my bad habits behind.
>>523937219Good to know day 5 is going to be the goal. I was just going to try and increase it by however much I could. I know I'm never going to be able resist the itch, I just have to manage it.
>>523937383I feel that. I'm kinda at rock bottom in my life so the temptations are harder to get, however not impossible. I just know I can't drink anymore if I don't want things to get worse.
>>523937423For me, the longer I went, the easier it got. Now I don't really crave much at all. Maybe once a month I'll have one, but it's easily manageable.Just keep pushing and you'll get to the other side.
>>523935478women like to reject it boosts their ego and attention whoring needs
>>523937403That's good to know, I should look into some kinda part time work for my situation. I've just been drinking and shitposting lmao, be good to fill the time with something again.
>>523937423https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=8qmsVswcXk0It's not the physical addiction. I've quit booze, weed, cigarettes a dozen times. It is the hole in your heart that you need to find and slowly over time heal.I know it's from some comedians podcast but please watch this video and learn to love yourself and be there for yourself.
>>523935478multiple women told me they do not go out any more due to indians
>>523937572Thanks anon. Really needed this. Thanks for the help.
>>523936615must be confused when nobody is buying you drinks and you have to pay for them all night ling
>>523937795No problem. Good luck.
>>523935429I just realized that my generation wouldn't have tolerated niggers, Jeets or Arabs in our nightclubs , there would have been mass fights. There were fights over people from bad suburbs trying to get in.
>>523937770I'll watch anon. Thanks. Hope you have good day.
>>523936556Use method daily for one year to break the habit, then quit method cold turkey. Plan for a week of sleeping, then ur g2g
>>523937710Cheap hobbies I got into when going sober: House Plants: There's a giant community online for it and propagating your own plants is super funAnts: Very fun pet with very low cost. Eusocial animals are goated and so is feeding half smashed mosquitos to them.Reading/Public Library: Where I live we actually have a big public librarie with lots of students always hanging out and learningFermenting: Saurkraut is good for you and it's a super fun hobby. You can make hot sauces tooCooking: No brainer. Who doesn't like a good stew and women love it.
Because it's all FUCKING EXPENSIVE and there are NIGNOGS EVERYWHERE
>>523935429Bars and clubs are still packed every weekend. The vast majority are Zoomers in their early to mid 20s, with millennials in their 30s in second place.It's the Friday night on the weekend before Christmas. There are millions of college kids on winter break and people who are back in town visiting their parents and relatives, and most of them will want to get out of the house and go out and catch up with their friends this weekend. If you are at a bar or club and it's dead, it's because you are at the wrong place at the wrong time, because you don't have any friends or social life and therefore don't know when and where all the normal people with friends go.
>>523937999I'll look into this i haven't heard of it. I haven't been getting any sleep if I'm trying to do. Maybe 2-3 if I was really active during the day. It's all good for today at least my body will have it's need met and I'll get alot of sleep.
>>523935667>Being this mad that other groups had more fun than youLime green jello
>>523938140Lots of bars and clubs went bankrupt, can you deny that?
>>523935429Zoomers are friendless, sexless, humorless, soulless, fatherless, cultureless and mostly futureless generation kikes made to sacrifice to Moloch in WWIII
>>523938140Clubs have been dying in Germany for decades now and it got massively worse during and after COVID. No, these are not replaced.
>>523936058Yes, the system is working correctly when it filters out the uptight, socially inhibited, autistic poorfags.
Everyone is at minimum in their mid 50's at my local bars lmfao.
>>523938328https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club-_und_Diskothekensterben
I used to do it when I thought that's what you were supposed to do, and drank to excess. Nowadays the last thing I want to do is pay a lot of money for shit booze in a room full of retarded people with loud noise.
>>523935429imagine the smell
>>523938012Thanks anon. I got a peace lilly a few months ago and I had to cut the flowers back because they were all dying, I transferred it to a new pot, the leafs exploded but no new flowers yet, hoping in a few months it will start sprouting new flowers again. Fermentation also sounds very interesting I'll need to do alot reaserch tomorrow. Haha
You got it. Keep pushing that boulder up the hill.
They don’t drink booze because they are all zoinked out on weed extract pens all day
Fucking this >>523936058 , worst is that you go to a bar / pub and the alcohol is all you'd get in local Biedronka. And a bottle of wódka on ice is some insane price even though it's some cheap-ass, horrible Bols. Fuck this
>>523938243>Lots of bars and clubs went bankrupt, can you deny that?Lots of bars and clubs are always going bankrupt, that has always been the case in the industry. They operate on razor thin profit margins. The average restaurant goes out of business within 6 months of opening. Bars and clubs can quickly go from the happening "in" spot that everyone wants to go to with huge line to get in, to being the completely dead place that no one goes to, or vice versa, very unpredictably with no rhyme or reason.Pretty much every business across the board has been struggling for the last few years, but that has more to do with economic factors like inflation than fucking zoomers not going to clubs.
>>523938430Yeah we should all embrace drinking through half a bottle of whiskey while listening to radiohead alone in our unlit apartments.
>>523935429zoomers be like: I don't drink because I don't leave my house because I don't have friends because I spend all my time online consuming brainrotcontent
>>523935429Who cares. Alcohol tastes like shit.
>>523938328You are just getting old and square and don't know where the younger, cooler people go because you are no longer part of those circles.
Based, if they return to Church they would have surpassed boomers and millennial as a superior generation.
>>523935429"You kids have to take better care of yourselves, look at the damn healthcare expenses"! (Kids stop drinking, taking better care of their livers) "You kids are killing the alcohol industry and putting bars and clubs out of business, start drinking to support the ECONOMY".
>>523935429yeah, because they're not old enough to drink yet lul
>>523938360i would agree with everything but the last oneClubbing is for the unsophisticated, which usually happen to be low iq/midwits with low to average incomes.
>>523935429when they do drink it's something really sweet and fruity and gay like white claws.zoomers are faggy teetotalers.
>>523935429gen z are a bunch of nigger-loving simps. im not interested in dealing with them anymore.
>>523939200Those two things are totally unrelated. The 90's/00's push to terrify everyone about STD's as well as hookup apps promoting hypergamy fucked with relationships but the bar scene got killed by a combination of the housing crash making kids grow up wanting to save money and bars jacking up prices to try and keep customers after hookup apps killed their industry.
>>523935429>being a broke autist now is mainstreamwow ahead of the curve for once bros
>>52393611535, went to rehab at 33,I was drinking it like water. Straight whiskey and vodka.
>>523935429>$10 beer>$20 cocktail>$25 shotNone of these people are getting laid anyway, so why pay these ridiculous markups?
>>523939352>Clubbing is for the unsophisticated, which usually happen to be low iq/midwits with low to average incomes.Not at all. It varies widely, and depends entirely on the club and type of clubbing.There are clubs out there filled exclusively with the most sophisticated, high IQ, richest people imaginable. You've just never been in one and don't even know they exist.
>>523937175How are you and the cat getting along? Is he your little buddy?
>>523940280Oh he is awesome. He curls up besides me each night. He loses his shit when I wake up. He loves cuddling under my chin for some reason. I've never had a cat. There is also a dog living here, the most surprising thing to me is they are getting along very well. They play fight all the time. He is in a good home now. I wouldn't want a cuddly cat like him to go back to the adoption place.
>>523935429I can drink at home while playing video games or watching waifu wrestling.
>>523935667Literally every generation until you. I don't really blame you for abstaining but are you doing anything to make up for it?
>>523938239>had more fun As one of those people, I regularly nearly killed myself with alcohol and drugs It's only fun until your nihilism runs out
What planet are you on? I literally just got back from being out and it was full of zoomers singing and dancing and drinking.
>>523935429Definitely not the case in Bulgaria. The little shits start drinking around 13-14. t. HS teacher
>>523941581Also, it was like 95-97% white people believe it or not.
>>523935429>spending power of 90+% of under 30s is less than during the great depression>"how come young people aren't spending money?"they don't have any money
>>523936267How do I keep the momentum after 16 months? Longest I've been sober. The fear of going back and being worse off than before is the only thing keeping me dry
>>523937789This. All the clubs are filled to the fucking brim with Indians trying to get with White women now.
>>523935722Alcohol existed long before kikes.
>>523935429I literally read the exact same articles accusing millennials of killing bars and clubs 13 years ago.
>>523935429Wait until the crisis comes, the big one.
