I don't like my generation iin?

I gotta comment on this. I'm 26, and have no job. My woman works hard for us. I stay at home and watch the kids, and it's hard work. I wonder, if we ever met, would you know enough about me and my circumstances to make this sweeping generalization?

One thing I can def tell from you as a "representative" of our generation, is that it's judge first, ask later. I hope that works out for you, because the other scumbag jerks of your generation think you're kind of a prick too,

I agree! I'm 19 and can't stand the ppl my age. Ur completely right

Lol

You still here?

I'm a 63 year old male.Looking at the hip,young things of today makes me Fucking cringe.Its all been done before...only better.All these dumb fucks on talent shows that are dying to be famous.Got no talent,just want to be famous.Glad i'm oldish and sans tattoos.Now get out out of my sight. Well go on...what you waiting for? Fuck Off.

I agree! I'm 19 and people my age are so lazy and immature.

Completelly right!

I'm 19 and I completely agree, I hate everyone's attitude, since the 90's people have been pretending to be deep and cynical and making fun of anyone happy or having a good time because they aren't brooding and important like they are. I get along better with people in their 30's and 40's because they were teens in the 80's which seemed more optimistic and understanding.

I'm 25 and totally agree. Even when I was a kid I tended to get along best with older people.

I'm kind of like that too. I hate the music. The trends. The popularity crap, and all that stuff.
I personally prefer the music from the 20th century and things in that manner. The previous century made so much more sense.

Quite normal

I would tend to not blame people so much as our society as a whole. I agree with you, but I think this happens in every generation. If I were to place any blame, it would be shared between the public school system, and mass media in general. These are the two institutes that influence all of us. If you really want to see something strange, just take some time and try this out.....

Watch two TV shows from every decade starting from the fifties and work your way up. See also, if you can catch some old commercials (newsprint and magazine adds are easy to find). Then, (and this is going to be the most difficult) find some school books from different decades. Go back as far as you can.

I'll let you draw your own conclusions if you try this, I find it fascinating, and somewhat disturbing at the same time.

ur generation also hates you!

I am flabagasted for you just to generalise and stereotype like this. People 10 years above and below you, thats generalising EVERYONE who's 38 to 18. I fit in here and have some friends continuing in education, some already hard at work already and some doing amazing voluntary work, huge amount of different people. Of course every generation has "evil" people in, some with high egos, some who just blag and brag, but dont think this is everyone!

sure i have friends my own age but what does that have to do with it? i didn't say i didn't have friends my own age.

i Know what you mean but you must have some freinds your age?

this is exactly my situation. I'm 23 and I never seemed to do well with people of the same generation. they are all too materialistic and "shallow". they're too "fun" (in a mindless way).
my best friends at school were my teachers. things haven't changed at collage.
I get better contact with people older than me. say 27-30

mtnw, i would not directly blame my generations lack of character on precious generations. you are right that your lifestyle is your choice and your decision.

i don't agree with disagree with the argument that you made.

but the decisions of baby boomers has shaped the world of today. for example the lame education system, over spending, focus on profiting agencies... and thats what were dealing with now.

Get to know who they really are, If they put up a wall and show it will be harder to get through but dont give up. It's every persons planets job to tame those that are going rouge. When nobody does their job people like Hitler pop up

I couldn't agree with you more. I am 27 myself, so I know exactly what you mean.

I'm 22 and completely agree. Most of my friends are a bit older than me because I just don't get along with people my own age. Good to know it's not just me!!

I agree on that, but I'm 18 and I believe my generation is worser than yours on so many levels... these are only a few reasons-
1.They committ gang related crimes (which you often hear on the news)
2. Increasing number of girls already get pregnant even at 15
3. They can be really stubborn and don't think before they do anything.
I'm not stereotyping my own generation but what I've mentioned is true. I just can't stand people like that.

i wrote this. thank you for your reponses. at least there are some decent people who see there is a problem.

I think it has less to do with our generation and more to do with rising demands and more fierce competition for education/jobs/etc. It's not the 60's anymore where you could start working after high school and climb the corporate ladder through sheer effort and willpower. Society has also become much more focused on personal success, rather than the success of the collective group. Now this is hardly the fault of our generation (people born in 1980-1990), but rather the people in power (the 50's & 60's generation).

Special needs? Forget about high school. No high school diploma? Good luck.

No cash? No college. No college degree? No job.

Well I'm not your generation but I can relate. My best friend since 2d grade has a daughter 28. She has a baby. Refuses to work. Goes from state to state when she exhausts that states resources. Her boyfriend refuses to work.

My daughter is 27 and is a great person. Finishing college at last.
My son is 22. A bum. He has used up all his unemployment. Blows job interviews because he won't pass the pee test.

I hope things get better also. When I get REALLY old I hope there will be someone to care.
But I see sunshine out there. You are questioning this. Maybe there are more people like you.

Our generation seem to always be in a hurry.
