They have the same mentality, the same politics, the same "Me me me what's for me, if there's nothing for me I'll just excuse myself." attitude. [09:20] IsambardPrince Most of them should have never had children. Including my parents. [09:20] IsambardPrince It's been nothing but 40 years of pain and suffering. [09:20] IsambardPrince The one easy thing I can do is make sure I never give these people grandchildren and pass on their genetics. Their marriage was beyond toxic. It never should have happened, and so now I get half my genome each from two people I despise and literally could not respect any less if I tried. [09:20] IsambardPrince It's not only that boomers are "undisciplined and selfish" as OP pointed out, it's that they had children and then a lot of them didn't bother to put in any of the work. You've got people here saying they didn't get their parents tucking them in bed and reading them stories. [09:21] IsambardPrince I got a dad who had a "study" full of thousands of dollars of pornography who would openly masturbate all the time with the door hanging open, and he called me "damn it" so much that I could still swear it was my name, and my mother off scheming. I don't know why she would do weird things, like she would always have "something to return" to Hills, and never had the receipt. [09:21] IsambardPrince Probably returns theft now that I'm old enough to have thought on it. She said my dad would "hoard all the money and was the only one with access to the bank accounts". She'd go write hot checks to check cashing stores and get the prosecutor after her knowing he'd be in there paying them off. [09:21] IsambardPrince They divorced when I was 15 and then tossed me around like a hot potato. Neither one of them really wanted me at that point, it just became a countdown to when they could kick my ass out of the front door, ready or not. [09:21] IsambardPrince Their divorce judge ordered me into therapy, I talked to him in his chambers and called them a couple of assholes and asked why I had to go to therapy when he should have put both of them in jail until they decided to quit being idiots. [09:21] IsambardPrince I saw some shit in the boomer generation. I saw dozens of boomers that I knew well enough to have at least some opinion on them, and I have to say that if they want to say any other generation has mental illness, it probably all came from having to be raised by them. [09:21] IsambardPrince The Silent and Greatest Generations were better, in my opinion. Community minded, churchgoing (I'm not really religious but I'm glad that they had some standards and people weren't just wandering around aimlessly on drugs, in their pajamas, full of tattoos.), built the country. [09:21] IsambardPrince The boomers were where things started to go very wrong. They cheated the crap out of their children and grandchildren (those of you who are old enough to have possibly been my children so....24-25ish and down), and the boomers plan to rack up a bunch of debt and die leaving us with the worst economic catastrophe in the history of the world. [09:21] *psydruid has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [09:21] IsambardPrince They caused a lot of their children to deal with a life of poverty. Some of us were even falsely promised that taking on enormous student loans would make things good, and then those people ended up down in the trenches with people like me who just went straight to entry level work, only THEY had enormous loans that you can't even file bankruptcy on. [09:21] IsambardPrince The few people in my generation that "own" a house are just barely paying the mortgage by the skin of their teeth and even then only because they got in while rates were low and weren't busy putting out fires that broke out everywhere in their earlier years. [09:21] IsambardPrince I'm afraid that the younger generation is dealing with a pile of mental issues created by a "life that just won't get started". Many of them are like my brother, clinging on to an old woman who never made them go look for work, at least until she dies, or they have millennial parents who are just too nice to want them to have to deal with what's going on out there now. [09:21] IsambardPrince Many in my generation, like me, never really even got to think about having kids, because we have landlords that fell off the boat from India that raise our rent about $100 a month every time the lease is up and use rent software to figure out how badly to screw us this time."
