I made a millennial joke in front of my coworkers after a two month break. (They have said waaaay worse). Anyway they HR’d me and I almost got a free vacation to the grippy sock hotel. Now I keep my mouth shut. They’ll never see it coming! Assholes.
My gen x ass was coming to post this exact thing. Well done.
Generation self defined by apathy and nihilism gets overlooked?
Generation “Mentions not getting mentioned any time people talk about generations”
Where’s Gen X?
Oh right. Forgotten.
As my mother would say, “Whatever.”
The true forgotten generation. But Gen X are eating popcorn while the rest are having generation war.
Edit: lol at people who are downvoting and taking my comment seriously. It’s a jab at Gen X not being mentioned at all in mainstream discourse of generation fight amongst boomers, millenials and zoomers. I don’t know what nerves I have hit but I am owning it.
the generation war is not real, just distraction from the class war.
I used to think generational fighting is stupid, but the stats are undeniable, boomers own much of the wealth. Boomers are least likely to vote far right, but they are more likely to vote down affordable housing because they don’t want their property value to drop. That is an indirect support for the far right, because it leads to younger people being resentful and voting for populist far right who promise them the stars and blame the wrong types of people. This is a trend across the world. Generational and class conflict are one and the same in this case. Sorry to older folks of Lemmy, but older generations have become greedy.
False.
I am eating peanut butter pretzels.
I wish Gen X would shut the fuck up like you say they do. Reeks of desperate middle child every time.
Traitors. They joined with the Boomers once they all turned 30.
Every generation thinks they invented dark and surreal humor and without fail people who should know better act likes its some new and unique thing… it’s more of an anomaly IMHO if a generation doesn’t do this.
Dark humor comes and goes in cultural waves, it seems.
Gen X, the least worst generation
Oh IDK…makes us seem inconsequential. For some awful reason my gen were the top trump voters. Somehow that slid under the radar.
Generation proxmox?
Joking?
Pretty sure their leading cause of death is suicide, just like the millennials. Although millennials are going to be getting old enough soon that heart problems will probably take over at some point.
Hey, blame Kurt Cobain about why Gen X takes it too seriously. You also can’t joke with them about using too much heroin without a diatribe about Kate Moss and Anthony Kiedis
