What's causing Gen Z/Alpha to fail at doing simple tasks?
>>544190432N
This kid probably went on to post on sharty afterwards.
>>544190432We didn't think it was possible, but somehow gen X managed to be even worse parents than the boomers.
That kids was never taught basic survival skills by his parentsSo many shitty parents just poop a kid and expect them to figure it out on their own
>>544190432Cannon fodder for the upcoming plot. It's like cramming in some extra NPCs a week before the release.
>>544190432you do realize the majority of gen z are in their 20s now right
>>544190432>don't teach shit>why you can't do shit?Simple shit.
>>544190432>boomer refuses to teach his kid how to use can opener>laughs at him for that>Sonny how do I open pdf?>Sonny what's my password to my bank account?
>>544190640>>544190771it's pretty easy to figure out yourself as long as you're not retarded
>>544190812That's what the kid is doing but fuck it let's laugh at zoomers
>>544190432>>544185799Too much BBC
>>5441905284th post, best post.
>>544190432I don't think I even own a can opener anymore. All cans have these pull tabs now.Weird to think about it.
>>544190523Gen x are active saboteurs
>>544191055You think it was any different for milennials and genX?It wasn't, genZ don't want to listen to advices anyway but they sure as shit going to talk a lot of smack anyway.
>>544190432That's a chinese piece of shit can opener. The ones made in the soviet union were actually a lot better.
>>544190432>HA HA LOOK AT MY CHILD THAT I RAISED WHO CANT USE A SIMPLE TOOL BECAUSE I NEVER SHOWED IT TO THEM OR TAUGHT THEM HOW TO USE IT HAHAHA THIS IS CLEARLY NOT A FAILING ON MY PART AS A PARENT BUT ON MY CHILD FOR BEING TO YOUNG TO KNOW WHAT THIS IS!>SHAME MY CHILD PLEASE HAHA SHAME THEM!Boomers really are hilarious when it comes to the joy they get from insulting their own family, reminds me of my boomer grandmother who did everything she could to destroy her children's lives including forcing my father to sleep in a dirt floor basement because "I didn't want a son" while her many daughters slept in the house with heat.
>>544191141>YOU KNOW HOW HARD TO LEARN HOW THIS WORKED YOU UNGRATEFUL ZOOMIEI guess if you had issues to learn how pic rel worked you are more retarded than us lol
>>544191099at least get a simple manual one, and just keep it with your emergency suppliesyou call yourself a German?
>>544191259My thoughts exactly after just having this realization. I'll get one today.
because they were raised/sabotaged by boomers.
>>544190432zoomer civil war averted
>>544191453Get a swissknife which has a can opener too
>>544191486
>>544190432Failed parents.Israel.
>>544191099There are a lot of cans without them here in the US. Some have them though. It's weird to say but it's hard to find a can opener that isn't trash and feels good. Luckily I have one but there are a lot of them that suck
>>544190432Boomers raised us by letting us rot in front of a screen 24/7 then complain about shit like this
>>544190432What caused boomers to be so technologically inept to the point of not even managing to use a phone with buttons?
>>544191099The problem with easy open cans is that they are quite vulnerable to external stress. This is why all the cans that are supplied to the military or for prepping purposes conventional can openers are still preferred.
>>544190432same thing that makes boomers fail at simple tasks, ignorance and inexperience. I once heard my dad laughing about how kids do not know how to write checks or send mail through USPS. I told him to send me an email and asked him to make a paypal account to pay for something. Dumb motherfucker doesn't understand young people DO NOT use the fucking postal service (because it is fucking shit) and NOBODY writes or even accepts checks anymore. Everything is paid online through credit or cash apps. Boomers are completely out of touch with modern reality.
>>544190523>>544191101If you can't figure out how to use a manual can opener, that's not a GenX problem. That just means you're retarded.
>>544190432People who gatekeep knowledge like this are insufferable faggots. All you have to do is teach someone without making them feel like an asshole. Why you would humiliate someone for not knowing something you were taught makes no sense. It's a sign of insecurity to be honest.Ive worked tons of jobs with cunts like that and I made a point to never do what they did. They're probably still simmering in mediocrity. I'm the guy you want to learn from because I don't make you feel stupid or small
>>544191796It means your parents dont care about you.
>>544190528A lot of that doesn't need to be taught. But those instincts can be suppressed by abusive or overprotective parents.
>>544191857>>544191811>you were taught makes no senseNo one taught me how to use a can opener, anon. I just figured it out. It's a can opener. Not a fucking nuclear reactor or an airplane, you fucking retards.
>>544191857Yes being born a retard means your parents don’t care about you.
>>544191930Woah you're the most amazing person on earth!!1!Nah you're exactly what I'm talking about. Even your response illustrates what an insufferable cunt of a human you are.
>>544190432>hey act like a faggot for my sick ass tiktok>okayThis is what actually happened and I'm tired of you faggots pretending otherwise.
>>544192041For years I refused to hire jeets because they're all incompetent frauds. Now I don't hire zoomers also because you're all entitled retards who blame people older than you for all of your problems. As is highlighted here, you blame others for your personal failures if a task isn't spelled out in excruciating detail. You all have this extreme fear of being corrected or critiqued. And that comes from a deep sense of entitlement and toxic narcissism. Truly competent people just need a distance and a direction. Not a 45 page manual on how to do something that you won't read anyway because you have the attention span of a hummingbird.
>>544191205Exhibit A.
>>544191811>gatekeep knowledgeyou have the whole internet YOU STUPID FUCKING NIGGER
>>544191930They did, youre just retard and dont realize it.
>>544192245Cope~
>>544192241Seconded.
>>544190432I swear to god there are people who are slow and then there are actual mongoloids with mentality>OMG mooom it's normal to be stupid now, OKAAAY???I really don't get it
>>544191972Having parents not show you simple stuff while a child means your parents dont care about you, yes.
>>544192241That has nothing to do with what I am saying. Which is, don't be a cunt and just show people how to do what you need from them. Again you come across as an unhinged shitbrain boomer faggot looking to bitch about the "kids these days" for not being about to stare at the sun and figure out what time it is in Idaho. I hire people too and exhibit patience. I'm fucking Jesus compared to assholes like you who have some weird chips on your shoulder and need to be a passive aggressive bitch to anyone who doesn't know what you learned yesterday. Die.
>>544192348>>544192413Ok. I'm going to skip the code test when I interview zoomers now. Instead I'm just going to hand them a can opener and a can of beans. And if you can't open the can in 45 seconds, I'm going to say, "Thank you. We'll be in touch." As I walk you out of the door. If you can't handle simple shit like this, how are you going to handle working on a complex software system that even I didn't write and had to figure out when I got hired?
>>544191259can openers are for women just stab the can open
>>544192373Fr fr ? Skibidi gronk rizzed up ohio ? On ja ?
>>544190771When you do try to teach gen Z things like that they are not interested
>>544192041Buddy there are a few simple components. If you can’t do a series of visualizations to understand how it may work, that isn’t on the parents, that’s on jews and their greed.Never forget the one true enemy.
>>544192425someone made you mad online so you are going to throw a tantrum irl kek
>>544192435Fucking savage Slav, I use a hammer and a spike.
>>544190432Parents concieved them while drunk and high while taking ssris and speed and then raised them with a phone/ tablet and retarded childrens programming
>>544191199This was non ironically how my mom was. I had to (and still am), pretty much re-learning life
Boomers constantly get scammed out of their life savings by retarded jeets. One here just lost 1.8 million dollars to a guy pretending to be from Microsoft. A boomer was able to amass that level of wealth while being dumb enough to think a representative from Microsoft needs you to give them 1.8 million dollars of gold in a Walmart parking lot because your computer got hacked
>>544192804Be careful... you arent a completely different person from your parents because you watched different tv shows as a child.
>>544192587This whole thread you guys have been projecting your failures at simple tasks onto your elders. Now you're projecting your own simmering rage at being put in your place on to me. If you're a representative example of people your age, we're fucking cooked as a culture.
>>544191520Boomers didnt raise you, they raised millenials, you are mostly Gen X parents, a very small minority of you have boomer parents who birthed you in their 40s
>>544192425Ok big guy, youre super smart. Totally figured it out by yourself, not from watching others, or countless examples on TV, commercials, and in magazine/newspaper ads. You definitely did not see it at all anywhere, and just intuitively figured it out with you 150iq brain. The world is doomed!
>>544190432
>>544192942Why do boomers and gen-x project so much?
>>544191930Holy shit we should just never teach anyone anything ever again!!! If u can't automatically figure out how everything works ur retarded and deserve to die anyways. Wow I wonder why kids dont know jack shit these days, its a fucking mystery
>>544190432Imagine not teaching your child skillsThen recording them so they can be usd as the but of jokes for over a decade onlineYour own flesh and blood.
>>544192942get in the nursing home boomer
>>544190432I was gifted a can opener that opens the side of the lid rather than the top.It's so fucking unpractical. But, whenever I see a new one at the store, I think I already have one at home, so it's fine.Why was I cursed with being cheap?
>>544192425You're the definition of a weak modern male, you seem more like a woman with how judgemental, angry and petty you are
>>544193156The youngest boomer is 63, you don’t even know your own parents generation lol
>>544192989>>544193150Anons, it's a can opener. Of course I figured it out on my own. It was invented in the 19th century. It works in exactly one way. It doesn't require 150 iq.>>544193105>>544193156I'm 47 lol. I've got another 18 to 20 years before I start collecting Social Security, my pension, and drawing down my own personal investments (not 401k) which should be around $4-6 million by then. Plot twist? I made all of this money running can opener seminars where I charge zoomers $500 per session to teach them how to open canned goods. For an additional $200 I'll teach you how to tie your shoes and change the oil in your car. Holy shit, you guys have to be trolling at this point.>>544193237That's the other thing that enrages the zoomer. I get more zoomer pussy in my 40's than you will ever get.
>>544193270Yeah yeah u are sigma af I get it. U are so desperate to prove yourself you are willing to be hostile towards your own race and people, its so pathetic lol. Pathetic yourself on the back you great and smart man, as you become a hated minority in your own country and go extinct :-) good riddance
>>544190432Absentee parenting
>>544190432That only takes a few seconds to teach and it never needs to be repeated.
>switches to hdmi1Heh nothing personel gramps
"lmao why did my children turn out to be retarded" - the retard that raised them
>>544190432That crakkah gonna starve.......
>>544190523So, how do you raise your kids then? Tell us about the future generation you are raising please.
>>544190771Boomers kids are called Gen-X, you retard. Gen-X is the generation that was left to figure shit out on their own.
>>544193270Gen-x fag, ha!
>>54419327047 and not married with a family. Or divorced like a retard because you cant handle women, ha!
>>544194620Not blowing 50% of my time on fantasy football, and the of 50% on other sportsball related things helps. Gen X were on the extreme on of letting the internet raise their children. They'd only get involved if their kid played sports and that was just to go drinking with the other sports parents. Aside from sports the kid just freewheeled and that resulted in zoomers. The less is you need to be actively involved with your children, even if their preferences differ from your own. You also need to be more internet aware and beat down the discord & Reddit demons before they infect their mind. You'll need to teach them alot too because the schools not have a more female/disadvantaged focus so normal life skills will be skipped.
He looks like the retard that jumped in the tiger exhibit.
>>544190432Did anyone teach them?
It would explain why even this website have gone to shit if the average Genz in this thread is the norm.A bunch of karen with dicks.
>>544190432They're not, your boomer brain is just hallucinating
>>544196597Zoomers grew up and live in an age of unprecedented access to information. But they'll sit around whining "my dad didn't teach me to change my car's oil at 14, therefore I can never learn" while watching some retarded e-celeb and not one of the thousand YouTube videos on how to change your car's oil.
>>544190771That generation is really lost lost, not only do they not care how things work, no they're so short circuited they forget it 5mins later and can't replicate it.You literally move back to step 1 every single fucking time.
>>544190432i never had to open a can in my whole life till like yesterday and nobody told me how to so i had to take a 10 second google search after stabbing the thing
>>544196597Do you need explaination to use a can opener?Don't those sad fucks have access to unlimited free information online?Niggers figured that one out, niggers, in africa, so black that they're blue... What kind of genetic dead end do you have to be to NOT instinctively understand how to use a can opener?I know it's a wild notion but can't you fucking ask if you don't know?
in his defense it's a left handed can opener
>>544195918Good.
>>544190432Spending every waking hour of their formative years with their eyes glued to a computer screen, phone, or tablet.
>>544190432Ban recording and posting it online. Make it punishable by death. My parents would do the same, humiliate me then post it on facebook for family brownie points. Granted I was not a retard like this kid, they'd usually try and catch me jerking off.
>>544192942>you guysyou havent replied to the same person twice
>>544190432A lack of critical thinking skills. He's merely emulating the behavior of using the can opener and not reflecting upon what causes the can opener to open cans.
That's painful to watch
>>544194723NO no no you are the retard anon! Zoomer is anything below 50 and boomer is anything above 20. I know it sounds contradictory but that's how it works and you're welcome.
>>544193155Nobody ever taught me how to use a can opener.
>>544199168Do zoomers unironically believe that millennials sat around going to classes on how to use a can opener? Or how to dress and talk like a non nigger?
>>544190432A can opener should look like this. That thing in the video is just a gimmick to sell to goym
>>544197790Nigga the kid clearly didn't have time for that. He was just put on the spot to use a tool he probably never saw or cared about. Do u think ppl just Google "what is this random object in the kitchen and how do I use it" in their free time u unloved little cretin. U have no idea how children function and how they view the world, just an ignorant pathetic man that talk down to children to make himself feel good
>>544190432>post the same image for the 100th time>still get max replies because there's so many newfags who can't help but to reply to engagement baitThis place is just facebook boomer tier garbage at this point.
>>544199857>10 minutes later>shards of metal in your foods>can still isn't open>cut yourself impatiently tearing back the metal
>>544200450>spending so much time here you see it 100 timesembarrassing
>>544190432The biggest redpill is to realize that every generation shits on the next generation when they make it to adulthood. It's like an unconscious kidsthesedays rite of passage. You see it in effect IRL, young person on the job struggles with new task, gets direction on how to do said task, but in reality you don't become good at the task until you've done it enough to gain experience and figure out what works for you best. Work ethic, attitude, and your performance develop over time.In meantime while learning you'll put up with some shit and criticism. The other major redpill is knowing that the struggling broccoli head you interact with will eventually get there and be alright, while the vast majority of posters ITT are probably fucked for life.This board is a parody of the world outside your mother's basement, and should never be taken seriously.
>>544199168Your parents did you fucking moron. You just don't remember it.
>>544190432Oh fuck that was painful to watch. This is what happens when a generation of kids have the choice of:>no father and a bitter, man-hating mother>a father with no actual skills and no ability to raise their offspring
>>544191099Underrated invention from the Americans
>>544200832she's a jeet, they use their toe nails or something equally ineffective.
>>544190432No, this one is actually perfectly reasonable. People forget that the can opener you take for granted now, when introduced, had to be sold with commercials that explained *exactly* how it was used, and showed it to the viewer twice, and there were in-store demonstrations to show people how to use one. Its an extremely unintuitive device. Brilliant in its simplicity, but also it doesn't work the same way as any other tool we use for any other purpose. Its one of the few tools that you HAVE to see someone else use first to understand how to use it, because the odds of figuring it out on your own is almost nill. Honestly, I give the kid in the OP webm points for immediately going for the jar opener on the side, which is the right answer for a *different* problem, just not this one.
>>544190432Gen Z can only really work a smartphone. Press square buttons on a screen. I saw a Gen Z'er trying to "swipe" on an old TV screen a few weeks ago, I've also seen them try to do it on old LCD displays, the fixed element type.
>>544191199>Boomers really are hilarious when it comes to the joy they get from insulting their own familyMy father is a boomer and is exactly like this. Then he's unable to even turn on a pc. Boomers are a curse on earth
>>544200457>be a burger>be retarded>get hurtI believe you
>>544192804nigger, zoomers grew up donating to influencers. You don't need to scam retards, you condition them to the point they think it's normal to be milked
>>544191811what fucking KNOWLEDGE? if you can't figure out that to open a can you probably need to puncture it somewhere and cut off the rest then you should be killed and discarded. holy fucking shit.
>>544190771>BRO LIKE WHAT EVEN>*spins the handle*>YOOO THIS IS LIKE A BOOMER FIDGET SPINNER>*whacks the top of the can*>CHAT I THINK THIS FIDGET SPINNER IS MADE OUT OF SOUP CAN - OR MAYBE THE SOUP CAN IS MADE OUT OF FIDGET SPINNER>BRUH LIKE HOW THE F DO YOU DO THIS FOR REAL>*demonstrate it*>OHHHH THATS SO TRASH, BIG L
>>544200457I really don't get how you can screw up opening a can with one of these things or a knife. It's just a blade with a small support, and these cans are literally designed to be opened with a knife. In the worst-case scenario you'll end up with sharp edges on the canwhich doesn't matter
I figured it outI then taught my brotherNow we can both open cans
>>544201257>Honestly, I give the kid in the OP webm points for immediately going for the jar opener on the sideJAR OPENER?! I have to try this
AAAA HELP ME JEWISH MAN! I NEED MY WUNDERWAFFE CAN OPENER!
>>544201909>Give your child the most powerful digital drugs on the planet from a young age because you're a worthless lazy fuck who doesn't want to take care of them >Be surprised when the most powerful digital drugs on the planet turn your child into a fucking useless addict with no attention span Shocking, truly. Everyday that passes I am more convinced that anyone under the age of 45 should be thrown into a wood chipper. If a politician ran on the platform of killing every single human being in the west under the age of 45 I might actually be motivated to go outside and vote.
>>544202125Lol, yup. Thats what that little hook looking thing on the side is, which most people never use. Its also on some wine openers and swiss army knives.You hook it under the bottom edge of a stuck jar lid and roll forward, it pulls the side of the lid out and up a bit and breaks the vacuum seal on the jar lid, instantly making it easy to open.
>>544190523Gen X here, you're not wrong.
>>544190432>Zoomer: "ok boomer">*Zoomer cuts off dick*
>>544190528Exactly. No one taught him
>>544202370I've been smacking jar lids with hammer the entire time when there was a tool on the damn can opener from the start
>>544190523That kid was raised by an iPad, that’s why.
