    Well , it's just a known fact that millennials are the first generation since the industrial revolution to be worse off than their parents. So...

    Perhaps because so many of them are wasting their time in "education" and "further education" with woftam arts degrees. Thus delaying their entry into meaningful employment and allowing them the delusion that they are too good for an entry level job.

    That's part of it. But the reason for that is because there's no gold standard. There is nothing centering the economy. It's all one big raging ponzi clusterfuck.

    It's just as hard for ppl with useful degrees like mechanical engineering or nuclear engineering to get jobs. I worked with a ppl in the oil patch with degrees like that. They said there's no work.

    Computer programming and engineering has been the only exception. And that is insanely competitive.

    And even some of those ppl live in their car because rent is so high

    ^^^ Do you realise how ridiculous you sound. You constantly bleat about how unfair life has been to you yet i don't hear you are starving, destitute, you seem to have sufficient time to spend on here typing rather than working yourself into an early grave, and you aren't having to sell your body to make ends meet - you live in a country of plenty with a high standard of living and you are in the top 15 percentile of the wealthy, yet your only complaint is your father seems to have had an easier life than you. Still the wealthy have time to complain, the poor are too busy working to complain.

    Im not saying anything is unfair at all dick cloyed. I commend Boomers for dipping their bucket in the river of gold that flowed their way that has since turned into a trickle of sewer.

    It just has to be pointed out to these Booming fucks, that it wasn't all about their effort. Far from it. And they have no fucking right to bash following generations for their lack of effort.

    Boomers just really hate this truth.

    The Boomers just happened to get in at the bottom of the greatest 40 year long financial ponzi in human history.

    Look you have been complaining about how Boomers had it good since you re-nic'd, you are a boring little repiticious wanker, if i was your father i'd hire someone to make your life miserable and give you somehting to complain about you little scrote. In fact i'd spend every penny of your inhertitance to ensure you had something to complain about, Boomers gotta have hobby's and you'd make a fine one.

    Ah see ?

    The reason you have such a reaction to this is because we aren't supposed to say it. You've been brainwashed with the Protestant ethic just like everyone including myself. And usually , this bullshit becomes a self fulfilling prophecy anyway. Until now. As we can see with the proceeding generations from the Boomer fucks , being worse off.

    It's the millennials who have worked their ass off to nowhere who are the most pissed off. Not the deadbeats who don't work hard , dont save money and don't do much of anything

    No, you just need to live your life and stop feeling like a victim petal. You called your father all manner of franlky nasty things on here, he has no voice here and that makes you a pathetic little wanker who makes insinuations and allows the recipients no voice in response.

    I'm a boomer and I don't hate it. You remind me of me twenty years back. Full of piss and vinegar (and I don't mean that in a negative way.) Perhaps people your age hate boomers, I've just never run across it.

    Whatever the situation you'll , just have to deal with it, at some point. Anyway you seem to be having fun and that's all that ever counts.

    The English have that expression of "just getting on with it". That pretty much always sums it up.

    Good debate though you may now be on wobbly ground


    Keep fighting the good fight.

    lost and found

    Many of the 'boomer parents in the UK (and occupied Europe) grew up during WW2 with rationing, fear of invasion, the Blitz, evacuation, premature and violent death etc. It's unsurprising they expected us to be self reliant, resilient and happy with far less than imaginable today.

    The only disadvantage suffered by subsequent generations is an abundance of nannying, lack of initiative, little sense of adventure, risk aversion and a fear of the unfamiliar. In this regard they have grown up in poverty and their lives disadvantaged as a result.

    Greek farmers struggle to find labour. Today's EU kindern are far too fragile to pick oranges. A 5am start to the working day whilst living in a tent is no longer acceptable to them. Even most of the illegal third world migrants shun the work. Why bother, when the state and NGOs are doling put free board, lodging and pocket money and camera crews roam making outraged documentaries bemoaning the inferior quality of all the free stuff heaped upon them.
    excellent posts and 100% spot on.

    My boomer clown dad had a 66 Chevy half ton step side. Leather bench , 4 speed manual , aftermarket 8 track. He still has it actually.

    It is a Dutch custom for fathers and sons to not get along very well. If you and your dad are 2 peas in a pod then good for you.
