    Gen X is very closely following a lot of the same patterns boomers did including being much better off financially. Your rugged individualism is classic boomer too.

      TIL I’m much better of financially when I’m one missed check away from homeless, have one car and zero “toys” like boats or trucks or whatever. You can go fuck yourself by the way.

      Edit: old used car, it’s not even nice. Fucker.

      wait! i’ve seen this pattern before:

      rugged individualism

      meaningless cliché that doesn’t even slightly apply to this scenario.

      lot of the same patterns boomers did

      baseless, vague condemnation

      being much better off financially

      absolutely made up stats….

      OK, zoomer… you’re much closer to boomers than gen x or millennials, and it fucking hurts me. I really had hope for your generation but you’re all out there saluting hitler and shit
