Boomers: “millennials are broke cause they spend money recklessly.”
Also boomers: “why don’t millennials buy more diamonds?”
Right? Pick one. Also the avocado toast always bothered me. That's a cheap meal.
* wheeze *
also people are slowly waking up to the fact that diamonds are artificially inflated rocks
In Boomerland avocados cost more than diamonds.
@@sadiemcnabb4444 ah yes Boomerland... time to rewrite Marketland about Boomerland
🎶 Boomer Town
I get depressed when walking 'round
With all these whining people everywhere
"You're just a snowflake!"
Screams a man behind a laptop
Giving me a cold dead stare
But I hold on, hold my tongue
Looking all around me
In this place, I hide my face
But misguided people hound me
Boomer Street
I could use a place to sleep
But I live on minimum wage
No, I'm not a snowflake
I'm sure you're trying but my brain is dying
And I need help with my anxiety and rage
So I hold on to my mind
My brain's remaining sanity
I've so little cash I feel like trash
What's wrong with humanity?
In Boomerland
You try fill their demands
But times are harder now, wow
Leave Boomerland
If all this world was in my hand
I'd go wash it off now
Boomer Lane
Either I'm going insane
Or anti-vaxxers are a thing
Oh, that's a new one
Some bigot with a camera
Has all his subscribers on a string
But I hold on to my head
While looking all around me
In this place, I hide my face
But idiots surround me
Boomer Hell
There's claim too dumb to sell
There is no conspiracy deemed too insane
"You should believe this"
"They turned the freaking frogs gay!"
Well, at least I'm entertained
Still I hold on to my own thoughts
Flit like nightmare moths around me
There's no trash that's worth my cash
The confusion surrounds me
In Boomerland
Logic skips away like sand
All over the internet
In Boomerland
If all this world was in your hands
I'd go wash it off now
In Boomerland
Logic skips away like sand
All over the internet
In Boomerland
If all this world was in your hands
I'd go wash it off now 🎶

What really makes this even funnier is that the term 'millennial' seems to be used in the media as a colloquialism for 'teenager/young adult', when most actual millennials range from late 20s to early 40s.
Yep they've lost touch with reality, the generation they're referring to as Millennials aren't at all and are infact part of Generation-Z or "post Millennials"
Ok so people mostly in their 30s are still comparatively young adults compared with the Baby Boomer generation and older but are far more mature, experienced and wise then the spoilt generation of snowflakes which the *Extenials* and very oldest of Millennials spawned.
This episode may have been broadcast years ago back when millennials were young people.
@@stephenmurphy2212 boris was mentioned in during the protest tho so must be more recent so most of the videos probably showed gen Z
Of course the media use the term Millennial incorrectly to refer to Zoomers. However, it goes the other way too. As a Gen X, I’m tired of being called a Boomer.
LOL that's because millennials don't know what those terms actually mean. See the word boomer, used for pretty much all above 30 year olds. While the actual boomers are today's elderly. My mom is a boomer, born in 1947, not me.
what I found shocking was the revelation that 1/3 of millennials still have a landline
😂 I got rid of mine, never used it, kept getting charged for calls I didn't make, got to love BT robbing gits
Had some random old guy ringing mine every day looking for someone despite telling him multiple times he had the wrong number wss quickly taken out and wont ve coming back
Where the fuck am I going to put a landline with no land Imaooo
Only so I can gave a cute phone😅
@@nahadoth2087 actually tbf that's the case for me
Headlines should be: Millennials aren't falling for the sales propaganda any more! How will we make more money?
They still fall for sales propaganda. Nobody worry...
Exactly
They also aren't reading bullshit 'news'papers with completely-made-up 'headlines' anymore, because *they're* actually smart enough to realise that anything shat out by Murdoch and his cronies is 100% Lie Pie anyway.
Exactly, lol we learned to be frugal with our spending.

@@patternrecon5271 Wow, did you even read my comment or are you just on here to promote white supremacist nonsense?
I stopped eating avocados and cancelled my Netflix account. So now I can afford the deposit on quarter of a million pound house (average house price in the UK). Thank you, right-wing commentators.
How is that right wing? And you act like its some mental price to *own a house that you will live in for life*. Im 18 and hopefully ill be able to get ome before im 20, but crying on youtube wont get me there any quickwe
@@aaroncousins4750 do you actually have a brain, like is it there or is it just a vacuum?
Avocados and Netflix are arguably less of a factor than credit score, and having a full time contract at work (permanent contract, not temporary).
And companies have been increasingly relying on temporary employment (to easily get rid of dead weight - i.e. You, the employee - when the economy suffers a dip yet again).
I agree that people could spend less money on senseless things like Starbucks or what have you (that will probably save you a pretty penny)...
But that won't change your credit score, or change your 6 month contract into permanent employment.
Then again, I assume you meant that you were able to have enough savings for the bank to trust you with a loan / mortage for your house (in combination with your good credit score and employment).
In which case; very well done :)
And congratulations on your new home
Also, I acknowledge the very real possibility of sarcasm in your writings.
I just chose to comment as if it were not ;)
@@theonewhodanceswiththepenguins Actually he is right. A young couple who has the discipline to save up for a deposit can easily enough own a house. You might need to start small, it might not be a brand new home, you might have to fix it up and maybe use it as a starter to get onto the property ladder, but it is substantially easier here in the UK than you might imagine. Of course there are areas you won't be able to afford and it will be a lot more difficult if you are single, but a young couple in the UK can earn around 40k pa between them - there is no reason they can't save a large chunk of that.
It's funny how the media still thinks of millennials as the young generation. A bunch of them are reaching their mid-life stage
Its because the editors of big media are still all boomers. Zoomers are too far removed from them to really understand whats going on. As mellenials start taking over top spots in the media you'll start seeing articles talking about how zoomers are killing off avacardo toast and why tiktok is the cause of the housing crisis, or something :p
Soon they'll be the media and that should sort itself out
We were called something different, think it was only because we actually made it through 2000 (end of the world conspiracy) they changed it, I was born in the 80s I did not grow up with a computer, video games, mobile phones, didn't even have a landline, never even tried avocado, media has become a hate machine
@@a.demifemiflapo5795 the range changes depending on who you ask but generally they are born between 81 to 96.
I'm 35 and the media talks about us like we are still teenagers.
Seriously, the media has no idea how old millennials really are. The youngest millennials are 26 years old, and the oldest ones are about 41.
Boomers: Millenials are so entitled!
Millenials: Maybe if I ask nicely; they’ll pay me more than minimum wage
@@infrasleep Millennials, have no need for trigger warnings, now Zoomers, maybe, us Millennials, were to busy climbing/falling out of tress, falling in love with Natalie Imbruglia (still looks hot) and enjoying the awesome shit in the 90s had our teenage years in the early 2000s, and most of all we enjoyed ourselves with out a care in the world...
@@infrasleep mate I'm nearly 40, I didn't have internet access or a phone until I was 18, then I went to uni and couldn't afford it for the next 3 years.
Don't know what you mean by sheltered existence, and if anyone of my generation had that, who sheltered them? Starts with a B.
@@infrasleep Most of that music was GenX music not boomer music and Grunge was definitely not boomer music.
@@infrasleep Actual millenials: raised obliviously listening to songs about having sex, doing drugs, murder just like gen x and z..., having sex at 12, 13,, 14, 15,16, watching oversexualised media (started by boomers) in general and seeing this as normal, talking about serious mental health issues, but not afraid to crack edgy jokes where it's fitting. Oh, yeah, and they also listen to rock, heavy metal, emo, rap, "classical" (you pick there era and there will probably be at least one listener of music from that era amongst millenials), latin american, ballroom, songs in various languages, songs that don't shy away from stuff... Also... um, pretty sure things like graft theft auto and other such games are or were very popular among the more recent generations...
Also millenials will have had a more up to date and therefore perhaps less sheltered education in terms of history, culture, climate change, discrimiantion, etc.

You've got to love the how the media think that young people, let alone any person, has a consumer responsibility to ensure that a product, service or company survives. They don't.
Yeah, whatever happened to that free market they love to bang on about? If people don't want to buy diamonds anymore, then that's the problem of the diamond sellers.
The free marketeers not wanting free markets.
If a damaging industry can't survive modernisation, it shouldnt
They're angry that younger people don't want a diamond, a symbol of love and commitment, to have the blood of sweat and tears of child slaves in poor countries on them.
They're angry that we vote with our money when we see issues with stuff they've swept under the carpet. They're angry we made a stand when they couldn't be arsed.
I'd rather have a symbol of love that was made in a lab. With the express purpose of being made for love.
Plus most people don't know that most mined diamonds are kept away in safes and such and only enter the market on few occasions so the rarity and price can be artificially controlled. (Forgot the name of the family or group that do this but I'm sure it's googleable).
Fact is, they don't like that the rich people in their generation can't get away with all sorts because we have knowledge. The internet and instant messaging and viral trends. We can very easily learn about poor, shoddy practices and mistreatment and if we don't want to support it, it's now incredibly easy to find alternatives.
Think about how many millennial entrepreneurs have created companies for reusing old clothes or shoes and making new ones from the materials. The ones that have created viral dishes on social media highlighting vegan or vegetarian food. People who create fakeaways to copy so we don't have to eat out as often. People who create businesses and small indie companies offering products so we don't have to support companies that are massive behemoths all owned by the same company at the top.
We have choice right now. Now is the moment to be aware for the times they come for our freedom of choice, because they are doing it more and more since they know we don't fall for lies as easily.
The amount of parodies of Boris online says enough.
Times change, there aren't milk delivery men anymore and most newspapers are gone. Time is always going to change society. By the time I'm 70 there's going to be a lot more technology than I'm used to. And I know I will likely be a crotchety old woman because I don't want to talk to an AI robot in the store. I find it creepy.
Not getting drunk or smoking is how millennials pay for their avocados.
Exactly!!! Every millennial knows it is mathematically impossible for us to buy an avocado and pay rent in the same month! And a long island ice tea is a far and distant dream. A single shot of top shelf booze will easily bankrupt a millennial. Boomers did such a great job on building a wonderful world and system for their children to grow up in. It's all the millennials fault for how the world is that we are growing up in. Damn, we shouldn't have made those bad decisions in the 70s and 80s. Christ, the media is next level stupid and boomers are next level experts at projection and millennials are next level confused, defeated due to our economy. And yes many millennials are spoiled rotten cry babies. Moral of the story: we all suck and the media uses it and preys on it more than a republican preys on an unattended 16 year old.
Exactly, who needs cigarettes when vaping is cheaper Imao
" I resemble that remark"
that's not what i've heard.....haha...
Sadly...you are misinformed
As a Gen Xer, my fave is when millennials are blamed for not getting married and having kids. If you can't afford a home or an education, then you naturally respond by putting off starting a family for a VERY LONG TIME. (And if you do get hitched and have kids, you're blamed for having kids you can't afford. There's no way to win that game.)
If a society is so poisonous and impossible to navigate that people don't want to bring kids into it, then that's not a problem with that decision. It's a problem with the society at large, and you are reacting logically to it. WTF kind of society is so awful that people don't even want to bring kids into it? WTF kind of society makes it so financially suicidal to marry that people refuse to do it?
Speaking as a Gen Xer who never married and still can't afford a goddamned home despite a six-figure salary, I do not blame ANY of you. You're doing the best you can.
Lets not to mention the divorce rate. If you told me that the 9000 dollar investment I made had a had a 50/50 chance to make 7% or lose 100% in five years I wouldn’t take it
Finally, an Xer who gets it! Most Xers I've seen like to join in one the fun of making fun of my generation. I am hoping there's more people in your generation who are like you.
Where do you live that you can't afford a house on a six figure salary?
@@8-bitsarda747 it's like that in Toronto Canada for one. 100k gets you a 400k mortgage. Average house price is 1 million. Rent is so high that it'd take you 30 years to save a downpayment
@@maevethefox5912 just move then. What's your excuse for staying in a place that limits your progression? The point of living a well developed life is committing to a certain place. But if the place is not fertile for u to grow you done fucked up staying there expecting anything.
Hey, Boomers, I'm an old Millennial, and I don't like avocado or drink coffee. I can't afford a home because I owe over $100,000 in student loans because you told me I needed a degree to make anything of myself, then crashed the market, then demanded 2 degrees to find a job in my field. (I now live in the UK where I'm at least making enough money to pay the $600/monthly payment on the loans.)
Sounds like you guys desperately need junior college in the UK. Also, most employers don't mind someone who took 5 or 6 years to get through college if they were working their way through. It's better to take a year or two longer to graduate debt free.
@@Anon54387 The implication of "I am now" is that they weren't before.
Yes! ALL of this! They also come out with crap about "if you were more prudent about putting money aside for a deposit, you'd be able to afford a mortgage on a house by now" - while simultaneously losing their shit at the mere *thought* of the property price of their fully-paid-off house going down by a few thousand pounds (because when THEY were working, their mortgage made up about 10% of their monthly wage, instead of the average 40- 50% that it is for most people today. Oh, and their wages also kept pace with inflation year on year for that whole time.)
“Young people are killings diamonds”, LIKE WE HAVE THE MONEY FOR DIAMONDS!!!
Also, maybe we realise they're just rocks that were pretty worthless until the marriage industry pushed them into fashion.
@@ramboshamone9888 Also the diamond industry inflates the cost and deliberately stifles man made diamonds.
@@LORDUnLuCkY13 I mean, whatever the diamond's origin they're pretty useless in everything except tools.
@@ramboshamone9888 Diamonds have many industrial uses. They are just using the ugly ones for that.
@@lampyrisnoctiluca9904 True can also be a useful material for scientific purposes. They have no real value otherwise, they're no different to any other material used in those fields, their ridiculous cost comes from bullshit corporations cashing in on bullshit traditions they created for us.
It's funny how Millennials get blamed for everything, and how it's used as a synonym for "young person". We were born roughly between 1981 and 1996, so we're as of 2022, aged from 28-41 (Sorry Russell, you're a forgotten and ignored Gen X'er), yet we get shit like Stephen Colbert going "Do Millennials know what a phone booth is?". Yes, we fucking do, we grew up with them!
Russell was born in 1980, so what does a 1 year difference make.
Yay phone boxes - great for skinning a doob in inclement weather 💪☺️
@@jameswatson5807 yeah because he's like a younger Extenial, probably actually considered a Millennial by bitter old farts over the age of 60 🤣
Who's born in '96 (like me) is 26yo not 28 😂 when you're starting to get close to the famous 30 two years make a difference ahahah
It is confusing, shouldn't gen z be referred to as millennials because they were born in the millennium?
"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise." - Plato... two and a half freaking millennia ago!
I particularly object to criticism for receiving "participation awards". I'm generation X and received a football trophy after a year of losing every game except one... and I found it humiliating and degrading. Don't get angry at the kids who were handed participation awards, get angry at the well meaning yet obnoxious people who made the choice to hand them out. They were boomers, by the way.
If everyone gets a tropy then everyone is a loser. Whats the point of a prize if you didnt earn it? Thats just pandering.
@@TwiggehTV the point is that parents are lunatics who pitch fits when their little angel isn't told that they're the best. Citation: I umpired for Little League for a year, parents be crazy.
Actually, participation awards do have their use. Studies have found that they can be a great way to keep young children interested in a competitive hobby or sport. Of course, they lose their effect as the children become older.
@@shadowmaydawn Those studies seem to assume that ALL children MUST socialise ALL the time or else there MUST be something WRONG with THEM. Clearly forgetting that not all children are naturally social & that these children could benefit from hobbies that they can do on their own. Some kids get stressed being around others all the time.
@@verandisoldusty6834 I don't know which studies you are referring to but the ones I looked at doesn't mention that.
What annoys me the most is that Millenials aren't that Young anymore. The youngest ones are closer to 30 than 20 and SOME Reporters have decided to use the term Generally for Young adults. Listen, I'm almost 22 and I'm Gen Z
Haha yeah, 37 year old millenial here. I think the media have completely lost touch with exactly who we are. They've been banging this drum for over a decade, not realising we've all aged. Many of us now own homes (only took me 10 years after graduating!), have kids, work normal jobs and manage people. Some of us don't even like avocado either! All that stuff about vegetarianism and tee-totalism rings more true of the younger generation than my own (and more power to you!), but the old people who still buy newspapers or watch mainstream news don't seem to know that, and the newsmakers aren't interested in informing them.
I am a Gen X, 55 years old this year, and I am here to tell you that the media is full of shit and you should just ignore their hyped up clickbait articles and get on with your lives. All of us have the right and I dare say the duty to live our lives to the best of our abilities and as long as it is legal and not harmful to anyone else, anyone who doesn't like it can simply fuck off.
I dont understand this gen stuff am i a zoomer? (Im young )
@@iffatmansoor5589 If you were born after 1997 and are old enough to type you are probably gen Z, for now at least
I’m 22 and gen Z, born in 2000. Most of these people blaming millennials don’t want to realize that the generation after theirs are not young anymore, since that means they are old
Eh, 23 here, I always say I'm a millennial because my siblings are older and raised closer to how most millennials were. Really though, from like 1996-2000, we're cuspers. I remember the dial up sound and the internet not being all that fun and 9/11, but I also relate to the younger people as well that never had to rewind their tapes
Because blaming us when we werent in power is better than taking responsibility themselves
As a Gen X with two Millenial kids... it's all bullshit anyway - I mean Debenhams would not need to close down if my generation and the boomers still shopped there, would they? I don't buy marmalade, don't see the need for paper napkins, I have no need for diamonds and I don't need to google "boobs" to see them - but that is apparently all your fault hahahaha. I do however play golf :)
To be fair though, I take no more responsibility for any of that than the people alive in the 50's and 60's who caused the end of the general dealer and diner in favour of malls, fast food and franchise restaurants. They worked for their money and spent on what they wanted to, so do I and so should you. Not your job to keep Debenhams afloat - business is supposed to survive by offering a sought after product or service, not by the generosity of the public.
Just ignore the twats, mate. They are shitty journo wannabes who use clickbait to sell their rags.

Oh, I am absolutely am the millenial stereotypes in some ways. I was lazy, spoiled, blah blah blah.
But like, I tried to fight that and be what I was supposed to be, anyway. I was also told to be less of a push over, and do what I want. Study what interest me. I was told just to get a degree. I was told that my degree choice sucked. I am told my mental illness could make it hard. I am told it wasnt an excuse.
And like. If I have to own up to being a lazy, dumbass milllenial. Why cant Boomers and rich people own up to making policies that benefit themselves, that made it way harder for even the "good," Millenialls. A lot of my older cousins were early Millenials, and late gen x. And it still took them longer to marry, or buy their own place. And my more rural cousins, or friends that married earlier? They arent doing perfect right now, either.
So. Maybe we arent JUST bitching and moaning.
Maybe our bosses paid themselves with money they could have paid us with, and didnt. Maybe rents and inflation went up, but not wages.
Like. I buy mayo. I am not the sole reason Mayo industry is dying.

So many people forget that a millennial isn't just a term for a young person anymore, and it's drifting further and further away from that definition every year....scary eh guys?

Patrick whibley
@@patrickwhibley5917 so true king!!!
We dont like us being around either
Two generations, actually! Gen Z were born '96 to 2010 and Gen Alpha are still being born!
I also find it ironic how young people gets told they don't understand respect anymore and get told they are rude.
I never worked in retail or in the fast food industry, but those whom I know that does or did, all have the same story:
Most young people are actually pretty respectful and understanding towards people in retail or people serving them. If there is an error, like a wrong price tag or wrong order, they understand that mistakes happen and that is often isn't the person standing right in front of you that is to blame. Young people cause problems too of course, but it is typically just problems of the annoying kind that requires clean-up or something.
What really ruins any joy they possibly could have had in the job, is usually caused by the older generations (40+). They get told time and time again how they are worthless as a person because they work a place where you typically don't earn as much. Accused of being lazy and not having a "real" job. They get yelled at because "The customer is always right". They get told to bow and scrape and apologize while some d-bag is cussing them out and calling them names. Even if they are defended and protected by their manager, this will stay with you and build up over time.
I despise the idea of respecting someone because of their age or even past deeds. I will always respect someone when I meet them, but the minute they stop showing that they are worthy of respect, I don't care if you are 70 and an army vet... at this moment, you are not worthy of respect. So thank you for your service, but F*ck you and have a nice day.
Yeah, I've been in retail for two and a half years now, and not once have I been yelled at or verbally abused by a millenial, and the fact that I'm only 30 should make them more comfortable because I'm not an 'elder'. Every time it's always an entitled, respectless boomer making the whole shop stare at them with their uncivil, degenerate antics over something that's usually quite trivial. Every single time.
That has been my experience too. The younger people were generally more pleasant to deal with and more understanding of mistakes, although they had some nasty individuals too. The more unpleasant customers were almost always the 40+ individuals who seemed to view you as subhuman and unworthy of basic civility just for working a service job.
I lasted a little over a year in my last customer service job before I had to quit due to a combination of working conditions and health issues.
Millenials use too many words in comments 😅

its weird how they are blaming the people they raised
Technically they're blaming their own kids for raising Millennials 'wrong' - when what us Gen X-ers were *actually * doing was trying our best to NOT crush our kids' spirits the way our Boomer parents crushed ours.
An entire generation unwilling to take responsibility for their own actions.....of course they are going to pin it "on the next guy" .....it's the lack of accountability generation. Their own parents labeled them the 'Me generation' because of how self-centered they all were. And they didn't have selfies....so imagine what they must have been doing to make their narcissism so blatant.
Yeah... Hey! I wonder if other generations have done that before? 🤔

The reason (amongst many) that they might rage is because of all the lead they'd inhale from the leaded gasoline that was put in the air from the 1920's to 1975.
Lead can lead to behavioral problems later in life, which probably explains why a good chunk of Boomers act the way they do

What do you mean by "behave the way they do" ? anyway? What behaviour traits are you attaching to "boomers"?
"millenials are being bled dry by boomers, and its the millenials fault"
Because the media decided to pit boomers and millenials against each other, knowing full well that it would make people react more. And that millenials are clearly not the last to complain (rightly or wrongly) and that upsets the older generations who don't function the same way.
I think millennials are less stuck in the times, and more open minded, less bigoted.
@@neofurby-yorke7950 They're just younger. In 3 decades the millenials will be the boomers. And 4 to 5 fives decades ago the boomers were the millenials.
@@liloupumpkin5278
Not quite.
@@liloupumpkin5278 There’s some truth to this. Each generation tends to push against cultural barriers in ways that make the previous generations uncomfortable.
I think it’s funny my generation is treated as though we don’t even exist. Then again, we’re used to that by now. We were practically invisible when we were the “it” generation.
I had more in common with my boomer grandmother than my generation x mother, I'm a millennial my son is a gen z we both get on great, I think it's personality clashes more than anything or being stuck in your ways, every generation has messed up in my opinion, but that will continue when we let ourselves be told what to do and how to think
Millenials (gen y) are between 27-40 years old, we're getting on. Boomers and gen x seem to mix us up with zoomers (gen z) constantly. Millenials had their childhood/teenage years over the millenium, we were born in the 80s and early 90s, not after the 2000s.
Regardless though, whether aimed at actual millenials or zoomers if they don't like how we turned out that's their fault for how they raised this generation. Should take some responsibility.
Agree fully. I am early Gen X (1966 vintage). I often have a go at idiots blaming the kids. My favourite one is the oldies blaming the kids for not recycling like "they did it". I have to point out the kids weren't even born when "they" did away with recycling. I am 55, and was a small child when milk deliveries were stopped, I wasn't even a teen when plastic bags replaced paper bags etc etc. How is it the kids fault again? Geez it makes me fucking angry listening to my generation and older.
We have an election next week (Aussie) - I am voting Greens.
There's the problem. Labels.
Labels mean nothing, every generation from the first ape that learned to walk, talk and wipe it's arse has it's fair share of arseholes and their fair share of good-uns, all in the same proportions.
When they were born has nothing to do with it.

Goes the other way too. I’m Gen x 1978, I’ve been called a boomer numerous times. The terms have just been turned into péjoratives for young and old people, it doesn’t matter about accuracy.

I guess when you're 60 or 70 years old then yeah 40 probably does seem young lol 😆

I remember when the media use to complain when the same generation use to drink TOO MUCH in our 16-25 but now when we want a house, family everything our parents had, which means saving a S*** load of cash now we don't drink enough... pick a lane
It's almost like the media wants to hate on younger people, regardless of what they do 🙄
Perhaps the whole reason millennials are snubbing diamonds is so they can save up for a house?
Maybe. Maybe they're just another expensive macguffin in a life that's full of them.

Ah yes, but who raised us millenials? They're awfully quiet about that!😂
Also, how much do they think avocado costs? 🙄😂
The same same ages of these idiots in parliment playing devils advocate using social media as a weapon, your right tho avocado is no more expensive then any other fresh fruit or veg, it's all a game 😉 lol
Exactly, they're free if you can outrun the security guard
Yes they're upset by how prude and square their millennial kids are. great great grandad and ma were beatniks and teds, great grandad and ma mods rockers hippies , grandad and ma punks and two tone and ma and pa grunge, so its no wonder they think trigger warnings and all the square prudery of their kids is something to be ashamed of.
Apparently an avocado costs exactly enough to put a down-payment on a house. Though it makes me wonder why I don't own a home, I'm 28 and don't regularly consume avocados.
Avocados are pretty cheap really, at least in my country (Spain).
I find it slightly bemusing to see how the millennials are still being blamed for random "young person" interests, hobbies, activism, existence etc, when the absolute youngest of the millennial generation (by all measures I have seen) would be aged about 26 now.
But I still remember seeing things about gen X being lazy and whatever, it seems to go back as far as humans, the older generations calling the younger ones weak, or idle, or lazy, or whatever
I'm a late age millenial - I think. I came the age of majority in the summer of 2000. I actually feel positive about the Zoomer generation. They seem to have their heads screwed on better than I ever did and are quite hard working too. Maybe that's because they don't remember that life was actually better before the boomer generation took control of everything.
And the irony is that Gen X'ers have become the most successful generation overall in many respects, despite being the smallest one and despite (the often unfounded) fears of the Baby Boomers. I'm sure that's a temporary thing, as I have good feelings about the future in Gen Y and Gen Z's hands.
@@groznier What does "I came the age of majority" mean? Because I just straight up don't understand that at all and I've tried interpreting it in loads of ways
@@ramboshamone9888 It means I turned 18 in the year 2000. I legally became an adult.
@@groznier Huh. Never heard that term before in my life. Thanks for enlightening me.

Had a similar discussion with one of my parents recently and she said "yeah millennials are idiots" my response "if you're saying we're idiot's then it's because of how you raised us" got no comment back 😂
One house = at least 100,000 avocados.
Which would be ten per day for over 27 years.
Nobody eats that many avocados, not even millennials who went vegan and developed an avocado addiction over it.
This is how I want all costs explained. How many avocados is that worth?
I want my measurements in Danny Devitos and avocados and will settle for nothing less
The real takeaway from this is that 1/3 of millennials have a landline! WTF, who are these people and why?
I technically have a landline. No phone attached though.
Because every few years my cell phone reaches the end of its life, won't hold a charge, and starts rapidly dying. And concurrently, the chargers all stop working. If my house is burning down, I want a landline. Or I just lose the damn thing in a pile of blankets and I want to be able to call my cell so I can find it. Having said that, I haven't gotten a land phone since I moved, so I'm paying a fuck ton for nothing 🙃
In 2022 there are still rural areas with shit mobile reception.

“Millennials are too lazy to eat cereal” bullshit I love Frosties
Excess carbs contribute to obesity, so maybe it's a good thing that millennials eat less cereal?
Frosties are elite

I’m definitely too lazy to eat cereal. I haven’t eaten cereal on a regular basis for several years.
I’m Gen Z, by the way. Maybe cereal is on its way out. I wouldn’t really care, either way.
@@DrT0705 load of rubbish... I used to stuff my face with all the carbs when I was serving in the royal marines.. it's all down to physical activity and due to many jobs being more sedentary these days and people working longer hours it means people are sat down for longer, often eating their lunch at their desk, and so not getting as much exercise. I used to be so physically active I could eat whatever I wanted.. now I work 14 hour days sat at a desk with a 2 hour commute sat down each way and if I so much as look at a mars bar I gain a few kg's..
I also don't think the media at times or people in general know what age millennials are now and use it as blanket term for everyone young. Most are surprised when it is people that were born in the 80s and many are in their late 30s and early 40s. I even seen it on many news channel videos where people in the comments will blame all millennials for things and having it too easy. I will guarantee that every older generation says the same thing and the cycle will repeat.
The Greeks already said it thousands of years ago and millenials will one day say it too. It's the circle of life.
People have called my 10 year old nephew a millennial…
Im 35.. IM THE MILLENIAL!
Exactly this! Half the presenters at the start there, would be millenials.
81 is when the 'millennial' generation began, though it was originally named gen Y, guess the whole 2000 and technological coming in they decided to change it, I was born 85 but some are in their 20s I'm not in the same world as them I didn't grow up with technology for one, it's silly
@Andrew Schneider my son is gen z, he is 12 your blaming children for adult failures 😂😂😂
My stepdaughters are millennials and are just fine. Every generation seems to complain about the younger gens. Hair, music, clothes, slang and habits are always targets of disappointed discussion.
Yup, the one ahead always blames the one behind when it comes to "generations"
"If everyone went vegan by 2050, we estimated that the food-related pollution will be reduced by three quarters. Of course, this ignores the fact that food-related pollution is only a small part of all pollution but we want to push the fact that *you* are the one in the wrong, not the corporations who have destroyed this planet"
It also excludes several of the other downsides involved with the environment that would be brought on by complete global veganism that would be worse than the food related pollution.
What's that black could over there? Oh it's just China, don't worry about it. Now go, eat your spinach
@@Nionivek I think the idea that the whole world should conform to a similar diet is strange. lots of people depend on some amount of animal sources for food and nutrition, it's messed up to say the whole world should go vegan because industrialized nations have abused animals and eat them in huge excess.
It's like that friend who's quitting weed and has decided that everybody else is addicted and needs to quit too. Just because America runs on a disgusting amount of beef and cheese doesn't mean the whole world needs to go vegan.

Well yes, this is entirely what the media does, distract from important issues with stupid knee-jerk tag lines. What you need to ask yourself is why they are doing this.
Depends on the media. Everything owned by News Corp is owned by a man so old he got Reagan elected just so Reagan would get rid of a law that prevented a single company/person from owning both print and tv media. Once that was gone, he bought Fox News and turned into the propaganda machine it is today that only parrots his own far right conservative views. He literally sends out memos telling people what they’re talking about that day. And this is reflective in everything he owns, it’s why News corp properties are always quoting each other
Journalists have fewer freedoms with their work than you would think. And that’s if they’re even journalists and not talk shows being treated like the news so they don’t have the same ethical constraints that real journalists have
Filling space.
$$$$$
We already know why they do it. To increase viewing figures, which is their main priority as a business. The real question is:why do so many many people watch and get sucked into this silliness rather than going out and living their lives?
SO you don't see the real issue. THEM. It is a form of look at the left hand, so you don't see what they right hand is doing.
The finest comeback to the anti-millennial people I have ever seen was: "I love how you talk shit about a generation that you raised as if it's their fault, not yours;"
This merely highlights how vapid and infantile millennial "humour" is. The REAL problem for millennials is that their great great grandparents were beatniks and teds,their great grandparents were mods rockers and hippies, grandad and grandma were punks/two tone and ma and pa were grunge and rap, Millennials are so prude and square, And-like ALL young generations-they delude themselves (as all generations before did) that they invented politics ,only they know good from bad, they are the first ever to care about the eco system-all of which shows that they have a lot of reading to do , will find out the paradoxes of their cliches and that in fact they knew very little, by which time a new young generation will emerge thinking it invented politics........
@@infrasleep OK boomer.
@@infrasleep Yeah we all remember the comedic mastery of America's Funniest Videos (full of people falling over/running into doors/etc.). Such wit. And Millennials certainly didn't invent politics, but with how provably bad policies around the world have been they certainly can't do any worse. And considering that scientists have been warning about climate change for about 50 years, of course the generation who sees that the can no longer can be ignored and kicked down the road are going to be the ones to start taking it seriously.
@@Vaeldarg Its millenial wankers in tjese climate protest groups who take the scientific findings and then embellish it with bullshit like "we could be extinct in a generation"
@@infrasleep my great great grandparent were probably born about 1870, they were not beatniks.

I think you need to look at a calendar and what a millennial is before posting crap like this you walloper. And especially before lecturing people on their need to read up on things, since you appear to be just making shit up.
Why cant it be that millenials and gen z are ready for change. The world doesnt work the same way it did 50yrs ago, we’re ready to make the changes work for todays people
The inability for boomers to accept responsibility is mindblowing.
You raised us to be like this through austerity, poverty and the mentality of "passing the buck". We get it, we're too poor to be able to keep certain parts of the market stable/viable.
We've accepted the fact that there are things we will never have, because of your choices. Do we blame you for it? No. Should you blame us for doing everything we can to survive in this world you brought us into? No.
We can't change things because you're in charge. The next generation won't be able to change anything, because we're constantly fixing your issues.
Stop passing the blame onto next generations. Instead of complaining, change.
I'd still rather deal with a millennial than a Karen.

It's alright. We're getting on with things, self-sufficiently and quietly doing what's needed.
Us Gen Xers are often referred to as the Forgotten Generation. Or we get lumped in with the Boomers - which is awesome [sarcasm].
I'd take that as a blessing.
I was born in 1975. I was in high school when kids in the US first started sagging their pants. I'm 47 now, and many of those same guys are STILL sagging their pants, and it's like... Dude, you have a mortgage! Pull 'em up!
Say what you will about Millennial and their skinny jeans... At least they fit.
And Emma Watson is a hero, whether she wanted or meant to be or not. End of line.
I was just out of high school when they tried to mix sagging pants with skinny jeans. Looked like they had a full diaper. Glad it never caught on with normal young people, and just stuck to Disney stars and Justin Bieber.
I was born in 92' and eating cheerios while watching this video.

headlines should read, "Boomers f*ck everything up and blame their children."
Headlines should tell us what is new and / or exciting, not create divides within society. This is just regurgitated bullshit to create hype. Let's face it, Debenhams is closing down because NONE of us shop there, not because you millenials don't.

My four kids are all millennials and I blame them for everything, but then again I am an old git and that's my default setting now...
Its because one generation works hard to make things easier for the next generation, and then they complain that things are too easy for that generation.
Actually the opposite is happening the last generation made it harder for the current generation house prices and many such things
But they aren't though, that's the thing, last 2 years everthing had gone down the toilet and this seems to happen every couple of decades
@@zirbto5749 This has always intrigued me... what has the previous generation done to inflate house prices? And by generation, I am not talking about banks and government policies, I am talking about your parents or you grandparents. If you do manage to buy a house, will the house price inflation be your fault 20 years from now?
@@Karma-qt4ji letting that happen and not trying to prevent it happening, it's not directly one person's fault like it isn't the fault of one person that there is better communication through the internet but all of that is societys fault.
@@zirbto5749 - karma has some valid points there. The house unaffordability issue isn't about generations. It's about voters of all generations electing politicians from right wing and centrist parties who are in bed with corrupt property developers and other corporations who set policy - policy that is designed to drive up property prices among other things because their corrupt rich mates (of all generations) make lots of tax exempt cash.

Russel Howard is the best comedian in the uk as he simply goes on rants that are amazing. He blends humour and politics
my grandma buildt a house in her yoinger days for less then a anual income, today if i want to build the same size house it would be 8-9 times my annuall income, and im in a much more high paying job then she was at that time. so yea, guess all them avocados i dont even like eating is ruining my economy
put very well, its funny how the older generations expect up to keep their "values" like drinking alcohol, excuse me? id like my liver to remain in 1 piece thank you very much, i also personally like knowing i am in control of myself 100% of the time, alcohol literally costs lives
I never understood drinkers. I ingested alcohol 4 times in my life (different drinks) and it tasted bad every time. How do you have to feel while drunk to justify the taste? When you get drunk you are shaming yourself, while risking your life, social standing and sexual performance. All you have to show for it in the end is a bad headache.
People are always telling me I am weird for not drinking. No, they are weird when drunk. How many girls had gotten pregnant at the very young age because they slept with a guy they would reject if not drunk? Then they also don't use condoms because they are too drunk for it, and because of this they end up pregnant with boys that they even don't like. People are doing many more things that they would never done if not under influence. They end up with criminal records because of this. Be it attacking someone, raping someone, steal from people, kill someone, or maybe even just walking naked down the street while the cops are driving by. There are so many ways how just one "fun" night under the influence can completely ruin your life.
If you add the fact that alcohol, cigarettes and drugs often change the personality of people consuming them regularly. Cigarettes make you nervous, much more easily angered and are lovering your willpower. Alcohol shortens your attention span and makes you far less honest even while not under the influence. Pot makes you unable to concentrate and is exponentially rising your risk of developing psychosis and schizophrenia. Heroin destroys your sense of empathy and makes you less loving and less caring towards other people. It's such a bad drug that it becomes your master, while most other drugs just make you desperately want more and more...
It takes months of not using the drug or not drinking until the addict becomes himself or herself again. There are always consequences. Your physical health is almost always much worse than it would be otherwise. Also, the majority of people hospitalised for mental illnesses at every moment are ex or current addicts. There are people who are regularly in and out of psychiatrist hospital for decades after they stopped using drugs or alcohol. The last thing is rarely talked about. People who develop anxiety, depression or similar problems because of trauma or naturally bad brain chemistry are only there until they get their therapy introduced or changed to better help them. Those that abused drugs have to take more therapy and sometimes it doesn't even help them at all. Majority of ex addicts with schizophrenia, that is often caused by using drugs, are partially or fully unresponsive to therapy. For schizophrenics who never used drugs, it is a very rare occurrence. If one drug does not work, there is always another one to try. Antidepressants are also helping the ex addicts way less, while depression is also far more likely to happen to them than to someone who was never addicted to substances.
Thank you!
