>>84023149Its so weird I've never fit in with my generation but now that we are all old suddenly they are indistinguishable from me.Weird.

>>84023149>millenials think they look 25Kek, and i thought boomers couldnt accept their slow march toward death
>>84023149millenials were always cringe, see: millenial humour>did that just happen!?>they're behind me aren't they?>that's the bad guy!>we're in trouble...t. milleniali'm sorry
>>84023162Who are you cooning to?
>>84023149>How did millennials become cringe boomers so fast?We always, ALWAYS were cringe.
>>84023172i coom to black girls, pajeetas or filipinas
>>84023149 i never understood this, i'm 32 and still feel the same as i did when i was 21, i was always fat and unhealthy though so that could be it
>>84023182Was that an attempt at humour?
>>84023189no idk what cooning is i though t you misspelled cooming
>>84023195Cooning is when you simp for a group you are not apart of by being self deprecating sincerely or otherwise Its jester maxxing but for acceptance
i was watching a qt millennial streamer doing a final fantasy lets play and she was using all cringe millennial phrases and references and i realized it made me connect with her so much more than the younger and hotter zoomer streamers who i have nothing in common with. i realized that i really should settle down with a millennial girl its just more cozy to be with people you speak the same language as.
>>84023186I'm still as virgin at 37 as I was at 21, and I definitely always feel like shit for one reason or another. >>84023162>Wow...like...just, wow. >This is going to be super magical ultra awesome...plus bacon sauce. >I am like totally freaking out right now!
>>84023149Half the millennials I've worked with complained about things constantly, smoked weed, did nothing with the free time, and were emotional as hell. They make memes about the "7 yr old iPad kid", but they're literally the same.
>>84023203>Cooning is when you simp for a group you are not apart i don't do that>acceptancei don't need thati'm just disappointed that my generation grew up to be this way. i thought when millenials were 50+ the media and government would finally be better but now i realize it's only going to get worse
>>84023204>Settle down with I hate it when you people phrase this like you don't have one now just because you're such a playboy. Shut the fuck up.
>>84023224"millenials were always cringe, see: millenial humour>did that just happen!?>they're behind me aren't they?>that's the bad guy!>we're in trouble...t. milleniali'm sorry"Every group is cringe
>>84023162That's all Joss Whedon humor.Joss Whedon is a young baby boomer.Just because millennials were alive when Buffy the Vampire Slayer was on TV doesn't mean millennials invented Joss Whedon.
>>84023228so what are you saying anon? i can't point out that millenials are cringe without also pointing out how every other generation or group is cringe?what is even your point here
>>84023160tbqh it is rather sad
>>84023229>>84023229>Just because millennials were alive when Buffy the Vampire Slayer was on TV doesn't mean millennials invented Joss WhedonNot a claim i made.This is another thing retarded millenials do. >Actually....Nigger i do not give a fuck about the origin, i am only observing the outcome.
>>84023231Pointing it out and apologizing for existing is cooning behavior You don't need to beat your generation up the other generations are so that enough for us
>>84023227Don't police my language bro. I'm a free spirit.
>>84023244All of what you described is Joss Whedon humor. Not millennial humor.>arguing is millennial so either you agree I'm right or you argue and I'm rightRetard
>>84023224>le wrong generation....fag
>>84023247>You can't point out your own flaws without being a simp!How low is your self esteem that you need to protect it this hard?>apologizing for existingI never did this. I apologized for not bullying the cringe humor out of everyone around me.>You don't need to beat your generation up I wish i had a lot more.>the other generations are so that enough for usThe beatings will continue until the behavior improves.Fucking hypersensitive millennials.
gen z cant fucking drive for shit
>>84023264>arguing is millennial so either you agree I'm right or you argue and I'm rightNo arguing against a point i never made is millenial.Keep doing it and prove me right.
>>84023268>You can't point out your own flaws without being a simp!millenials were always cringe, see: millenial humour>did that just happen!?>they're behind me aren't they?>that's the bad guy!>we're in trouble...t. millenial>apologizing for existingi'm sorry>the other generations are so that enough for usThe beatings will continue until the behavior improves.Fucking hypersensitive millennials.What did you mean by this
>>84023276You called Joss Whedon writing millennial writing.Which is wrong.Maybe you were wrong for a reason other than thinking millennials being around when Buffy the Vampire Slayer was on TV meant millennials invented that humor. But either way you're still wrong about it because you're calling Joss Whedon humor millennial humor and Joss Whedon is so old he doesn't even make the cutoff to being Gen X let alone millennial.
Joss and Buffy are Gen X, not millennials. Gen X were very good to us millennials - they gave us lots of music and media.
>>84023281Would have been better if Gen x pushed back on the boomer shit
>>84023278If you can't understand then i don't know what to tell you. I've explained myself well i think and any further misunderstandings are your problem and probably intentional.
>>84023276>>84023244>AckshuallyLmao just take the L man you're embarrassing yourself by your own metrics
>>84023281They were also amazing programmers. I think coding skills have gone downhill and AI will probably plummet them off a cliff.
>>84023281Joss Whedon is almost Gen X, but off by one year. He's the youngest of the Baby Boomers.
>>84023280>You called Joss Whedon writing millennial writing.Quote me.>oss Whedon humor millennial humorIt is. If you can't recognize the pattern then pay more attention. Or don't.
>>84023284nah Gen X gave us lots of good stuff
>>84023286>embarrassing yourself by your own metricsExplain how i'm wrong without misinterpreting what i said after i already clarified my intent.
>>84023293I would have preferred if they kicked the boomers shit in
>>84023229Buffy is a solid 9/10 series, in my opinion, but the flattest humor in Buffy was always the -age suffix jokes (time for some slayage, Xander. Let's get on with the girl talkage, Willow. Hey Spike, could you tone the rapeage vibe down a little?)
>>84023298I am just pointing out what a whiny bitch you are>waahhhhh
>>84023310True i'm whining but i'm not wrong.
>>84023303I don't mind Joss Whedon humor.I just want people to stop calling Joss Whedon humor millennial humor.The vast majority of Joss Whedon humor is either Joss Whedon himself or other young baby boomers or Gen X writers.I can't think of any famous millennial writers who write like that.
>>84023301we were all betrayed by boomers, but, back when millennials were young it was a different culture. and to be honest, other than the inflation, things aint so bad now. the trick is to enjoy the moment.like - the world exposed a pedophile ring at the highest levels of wealth, kind of huge and world changing. and gen z not giving a fuck about jingoism and signing up for the military is also world changing.when millennials were young, post 9-11 and enlisting was popular.
>>84023280Are you retarded? Do you think cultural tropes just emerge from the future collective memory of that generation with no input from the previous ones? Do you think a 15 year old wrote the Minecraft movie? Jesus Christ.
>>84023149What? It's the exact opposite. It's people who look 65 but feel 25.
>>84023316Fair, I am gonna stop shitposting now..
>>84023321Yeah but if boomers aren't put on a rocket to the sun there is no justice.
>>84023318I can't think of any famous millennial writersBecause they're bad.>who write like that.Every movie by/for our generation
>>84023337Kek.I feel like the whole Gen Y vs Gen Z thing is just a distraction to keep us from retaking the wealth that the boomers have clung to
>>84023337just wait them out, young gen z. bide your time. start taking care of your health early and maintain it like a prized vehicle.
>>84023332Fair too. Some shitposting is appropriate for a whiner.
>>84023149Millennials are no longer young and they were always cringe. Scene kids, bacon obsession, hipsters, indie folk, pitchfork, decibel, the list goes on.
>>84023322>>84023341>can't name a single famous millennial writer who does Joss Whedon writingExactly, because it's Joss Whedon writing. It's not millennial writing. Zoomers just started calling Joss Whedon writing millennial writing one day because they can't tell the difference between any of the people older than they are.
>>84023318Buffy had some very funny moments. Pic related was best girl.
>>84023353we're not young, we are middle aged. which seems like a boomer to gen z.
>>84023354I have never actually heard anyone outside of this thread conflate Whedon's writing with "millennial humor", btw.
>>84023149>How did millennials become cringe boomers so fast?I can't wait for an excuse to yell at clouds, personally.
>>84023368I see it constantly because it's the only thing anyone ever refers to as "millennial humor.">did that just happen!?and>they're behind me aren't they?Are some of the most stereotypically Whedon lines possible.Also you can just google millennial writing Joss Whedon and find many people talking about it since that's the obvious real thing people mean when they use terms like millennial writing or millennial humor.Nobody can ever name an actual famous millennial writer that does that stuff. It's all Joss Whedon.
>>84023378JD Vance is a millennial writer, there you go.
>>84023162The only reason millennial humor is cringeworthy instead of cheesy and endearing is because of all the loser millennials that flooded reddit and turned these cliches into an obnoxious speech mannerism that accompanied their condescending remarks and explanations of why their dead bedroom was super wholesome actually.So as always it's retards ruining funny things for the rest of us. I love "he's right behind me isn't he" and so do my early to mid twenties peers.
Can a generation have a specific writing style? Does JD Salinger write in the same style has Truman Capote? Idk.
>>84023224that retard doesn't know what cooning is he meant to say panderingcooning is something selfhating black people do feel free to disregardt. coonhunting black nigga
>>84023354>Exactly, because it's Joss Whedon writing. It's not millennial writing. Zoomers just started calling Joss Whedon writing millennial writing I can name all the millenial movies it's in if you prefer? The writers i don't care about because it's not something i'm interested in like you are and they suck.
>>84023149troonlennials will write and read shit like this then say that millennial writing is not real and it's younger gen x'ers who do itthe irony of this image is that brad pitt is a boomer, cucklennials everyone...
>>84023459the context of "millennial writing" means television, movies, books, music - generally means published works and not shitposts on the internet.i cant believe that i had to explain this to you.
>>84023459It's actually young Baby Boomers and old Gen Xers mostly. And pretty much no real millennials involved.Closest thing to a famous millennial writer I can think of is Pendleton Ward with Adventure Time, which doesn't really sound like what people refer to as "millennial writing."
>>84023488>adventure timeheres some real millenial core. reading that name brought back memorieshttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O3r0ueHKyrgflannel wearing hipsters are millennial core for SURE. but that kind of emo is pretty obscure to begin with
>>84023507Yeah, that's real millennial shit.
heres some millennialcore writinghttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mS8xDo-qM8w
>>84023149You either die a zoomer, or you live long enough to become a boomer
>>84023520Dallas Green is 1980, so actually just youngest Gen X.
more millenicorehttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zgXCz2UWLBk>>84023529it counts. plus the other band members are younger
>>84023467and that xeet puts it in context with millennial writing, that xeet would fit right into any kind of capeshit or modern vidya produced in the last 10 yearsI can't even right now, I cannot believe you were such a heckin unwholesome chungus>>84023488man, just look at xitter and compare the shit faglennials shit out to the writing we see in vidya and moviesboomers and gen x'ers may be in charge, but they hire millennial writers to be hip and relevant to the kids (kids being 30+ balding manchildren)
>>84023547you're speaking in english but it's really difficult to discern the content of your posts.
>>84023547That image you attached to your post sounds like zoomer slang. Nobody talked like that in the early 2000s that I know of. We definitely didn't say stuff like "low key," "gaslit," or "vibe."In fact it sounds like that person is making fun of how zoomers talk.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=P5LjFkibA7wmore millennicore. we millennials were the "happy go lucky" generation when we were young, but we were just slowly corrupted over time by disappointment.>>84023565i think that guy you're posting at is just brain damaged.
we're not those millenial liberals right?
>>84023579look at that video - like i said, we millennials were young during a different time, with a positive vibe and wholesome-esque culture before we got radicalized by social engineering during obama and then trump.
>>84023595the real pill is realizing that both libs and repubtards are shit, corrupt, part of the same elites community, and that both liberal and conservative viewpoints have merits and flaws, but the whole political system is run by the same pedophile elites
>>84023605thank you right wing bot you are very based
>>84023597Millennials mostly didn't get radicalized during Obama and Trump since nothing happened under Obama (Occupy Wall Street wasn't ever a serious protest despite all the retroactive conspiracy theories bout it) and we were already mostly in our late 20s or 30s by the time Donald Trump was President.Some of us had to start our careers around when the 2008 subprime lending crisis happened but that wasn't that big of a deal and really started at the end of George W. Bush's Administration.Most millennials I'm familiar with are just normal people with jobs, with more single and childless people than previous generations. I don't know of any radicalized millennials except maybe Elliot Rodger who's dead obviously.
>>84023160a 22 yr old thought i was 24 the other day (im 32) im skinny though
>>84023597>>84023614Oh yeah, also Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold were oldest of millennials (and also dead obviously).
>>84023614the radicalization was well underway during obama. it just trickled out into the mainstream much later. we knew about those pedophile pizza parties way before anyone else. just recently the mainstream has caught up to that and epstein
>>84023625millennials are the happy go lucky generation that got poisoned by disappointment and radicalization. millennial music is out there, but its actually relatively niche.
>>84023557see, your post is an example of a stereotypical millenniala snide remark with no substance, "you do you my guy guhuh">>84023565all these terms became popular or re-emerged in the early 2010s, when millennials were the most vocal on the internet crying about boomers and being brokeI really have no idea how to talk to people who feign ignorance, because you know that I know and I know that you know that I know and yet you're still acting like a faggot
>>84023614>Occupy Wall Street wasn't ever a serious protest despite all the retroactive conspiracy theories bout itYes it was and the response was the injection of identity politics. You can point to the start of it in that movement when a black woman followed one of the white speakers on stage and immediately stated that there was not enough black female representation in the movement and that black females were most affected by everything so should receive unique attention. Everybody thought it was crazy and waited for somebody else to call it out. But they were more afraid of being called a racist than the billions of dollars they were standing up against.>hen the 2008 subprime lending crisis happened but that wasn't that big of a dealNigger the banks took peoples homes they had no right to, people who had mortgages with completely unrelated lenders. It was an absolute free-for-all on seizing assets from the public with fabricated, or sometimes no, documents. To prevent, what they thought, was their own collapse.>started at the end of George W. Bush's Administration.The crash started at the end of the Bush admin but it was brewing for decades before. And the first thing Obama did was formalize Fink as the de-facto fourth branch of the government and offer bail outs on the grounds that the criminal enterprises were "too big to fail."Following this, we see the explosion of identity politics and subversion of merit-based systems. The purpose, though this is a tinfoil take, for Larry Fink & co to buy the dips when these companies inevitably tanked due to inefficient hiring practices and failure to deliver products. It's worked very well.
>>84023662No, I was being literal. I know gen z people - they dont speak like you do. I think you're brain damaged.
>>84023696>I know gen z people - they dont speak like you dothat's the most wholesome keanu chungus thing someone has ever said to me, I... t-thank you...
>>84023149Contrary to popular belief, soilennials are more terminally online than Zoomers.
>>84023731is the whole millennial hate thing a right wing grift?
>>84023149I only see stuff like this on x
>>84023750Maybe, given all that hate against them for birth rates. For whatever reason us elder Zoomers ('97 to about 2000) haven't got backlash for that yet, maybe because our parents notice the subtle sex wars happening online 24/7, kek. For example, normalfag redpill vs tumblr-esque feminism.
>>84023149>who look 25Let's not flatter ourselves now
>>84023786I've never heard any hate about birth rates besides JD Vance (who is a millennial himself) and Elon Musk talking about wanting to encourage more people to reproduce.Most people just don't care if a millennial says he or she doesn't have kids.
>>84023750NTA but fuck voting in general. one its a waste of time, two voting means that you consent to whatever they decide to ass pull.by not voting im neither against the interest of dems or reds. people who care about voting can duke it out. to me it's just another asshole promising things they cant deliver on.the world is still run by the same pedophiles - theyre just laying low for now.
>>84023786It's just doom to happen since there's a gender war and both sides have their thing like feminism which are long enduring and predate us.
>>84023799yeah I agree but voting snags people the world keeps turning something has to govern
>>84023786>>84023797NTA but fuck that. the elites in power want babies, the same elites who rape children on an obscure island. fuck all that. the elites can import kids from somewhere else.
>>84023813again - fuck that fuck voting
>>84023826fuckity fuckity fuck fuck fuck
>be a millennial >get blamed for the economic collapses that happened when we were in high school >get blamed for all the microplastics from boomer factories that were running since in the 50s>get blamed for all the inefficiency of boomer politicians >get blamed for all the disastrous feminist policies that gen x shoved down our throat in school >get blamed for the woke entertainment that we suffered through in the early 90s god damn, I'm just trying to get a job so I can afford a fucking car someday. Get off my back.
>>84023858>early 90s>woke entertainmentWhat? I mean, the 90s had a liberal leaning to it but I've never heard anyone refer to it as woke before.More importantly, the 90s was the peak of pop culture. Nobody complains about the 90s.
>>84023162No millennial humour isYOU ARE MY CHILD BRIDEI AM YOUR FATHER GROOM
>>84023149Anyone over the age of 20 is a "Boomer" to you people; it's completely lost its original meaning and impact at this point. In any case, I don't see how anyone thinks we're "cringe" with all the shit we lived through and STILL keep going.>not bussin, I skibiddi couldn't go to prom because of Covid on god fr fr>boo-fucking-hoo. We went to school one morning and watched 3,000 people get murdered on live TV, among other thingsGo read a book, bitchass.
you will never be based enough for daddy
>>84023898>with all the shit we lived through and STILL keep going.bing bing wahoos and vegan-friendly lattes, you think you're the only generation who experienced economic downturn?blow it out your ass you sissy
>>84023912>>84024015look - we have an actual boomer in here.
>>84024037look - a faggot! a massive crybaby faggot who acts like the biggest victim in human historyget a grip
>>84023160Posting my spiritual animal
>>84023873the 90s invented the whole "girls are always smarter than boys" and also "girls hate love and affection" and also "everyone needs a token black friend or else you're racist." This describes literally every single movie and tv show for children.
>>84023222You have no idea how bad the 7 year old ipad kid is to say something like that lol
>>84024139Girls being smarter than boys was meant as a joke. Everyone understood girls aren't smart so pretending they were smart was a way to avoid punching down.I feel like a lot of these unstated rules made perfect sense at the time but people gradually lost the ability to read between the lines like that.
>>84024139>"girls hate love and affection"Not that one, but the other two is true.
>>84024153The concept of punching down only existed at the tail end of millenials, it's meant for zoomzooms. Millenials did not have that crap. Women being smarter was """supported""" by retarded psych papers (heavily disproven) using garbage evaluation metrics (notably things like achievements over actual standardized testing or brain scans). It was heavily pushed everywhere: men are strong and brave, women are smart and fragile. Thus, together, we are whole. Equal but different. That is how it used to be portrayed.
>>84024015We got into a massive crisis when we graduated highschool, another when we graduated college, another a few years later, and our boomer parents forced us to get out and live alone (i.e. in homeless shelters) since we were 18.Nobody else has gone through so many perfectly timed crises. Furthermore, 2 of those 3 crises dwarfed those from before, and we have yet to recover from either of the latter two which have completely fucked the housing market and the job market, two critical components for young people to grow up and become independent and start families.Not to mention all the political shit that has happened. 9/11 anyone?
>>84024015>economic downturnI said "among other things" because the Great Recession was just ONE of such 'downturns' we've endured. >dot com bubble burst>Enron>2007-2009>Covid>AI taking over literally everything>even white-collar jobs no longer being 'safe'And the worst you had to deal with was what? The "Oil Crisis?"
>>84024180it's spectacular how you're supposed to be well into your 30's yet you still whine like an uppity teen, millennials never grew up and yet the same limp wristed faggots from your generation have the audacity to criticize zoomies, it's patheticyou aren't burning your fancy funkopops collection to stay warm at night and you've still got plenty of jobs to sift through, you're just a spoiled brat and a fucking idiot if you think that a little bump in the economy is anywhere near crisis-leveland you know what? home ownership is a privilege, not a right, humans throughout history have been renting homes and land from bigger, stronger and more powerful humans so you're not a special little victim of circumstances sorry>9/11 anyone?boo hoo lil babby got traumatized cause jews took their prank a bit too, far need a tissue?
>>84024212>And the worst you had to deal with was what? The "Oil Crisis?"bread lines, secret police, sharing a two bedroom apartment with another family before I could get my own place, collapse of the government, being relocated across the country for work, military junta and martial law to name a few things
>>84023149Age brings fear of irrelevance, dont worry we are going to post the same cringe when we get old
