Quoting: HarshingMyMellow They brought in some Climate Change END OF THE WORLD guy because, I guess we are going for #1 in the nation. When my kids leave this school, I'm going to have a talk with the superintendent. My oldest said that they keep having these suicide discussions and saying things like "if you see someone that isn't smiling, get involved, maybe let us know". My kid is like, that is me, the ones they need to watch out for are the ones that are always smiling, then they get that thousand mile stare. I can almost tell you who is next". We need to have a debate, whether the left likes it or not, if they don't show up, someone can play devil's advocate for them. We need to end political agenda as science in this country once and for all. My wife is a high-school counselor. She has suicide threats weekly! I don't remember anybody ever threatening suicide in my high school or others during my time. Is it the SSRI withdrawal? |

For two, each generation is literally a product (and therefore a responsibility of) the previous generation so when you knock the generations who come after you, you are really knocking your own generation's ability at producing capable human beings. I will say that, as a millennial, I was brought up to believe that our nation would more or less take care of you as an individual if you put forth your best effort. Not that you would get everything for free, but that there was some common decency in the world and that you wouldn't have to be a cut throat fucking asshole 24/7 and help be part of the further degradation of our species and society. Yes, there was some genuine butt hurt amongst us millennials initially at realizing the world is actually a cold hearted biatch lol.

Quoting: Roboto I'm talking about our own millennials - all of them. I say our own, because I am the father of one. I have been critical of them for their ignorance, not stupidity, but lack of drive to experience & learn - their seeming lack of natural curiosity. Also, I have misunderstood their tendency to be PC. It took a while for me to understand. The turning point was when, I picked my daughter up from high school one day. I was listening to an audio discussing discovery of new planets. (But, I had frequently listened to prepper stuff.) When she got into the car, she said, "I don't want to hear that end-of-the-world shit!". I thought WTF? But, later, I understood. I am a realist and I had tried to transfer some understanding of "the way things really are" to her over the years. The problem is, I have lived my life. I had opportunities, and a relatively stable culture in which to pursue them. Boomers experienced the American Dream. Sure, some of us went to Vietnam, and suffered the disillusionment of realizing that our government really does not value individual lives of it's citizens. Yet, we thought that we were serving a righteous purpose. And we did so willingly. Millennials today, see the dark side. Maybe they are more realists that we are. They don't see a bright road ahead. So, they strike a psychological bargain, to be able to cope. The whistle past the graveyard with their PC behavior, in hope that by placating all discontented parties, everything will be OK. And, just maybe, they will have time for a real life while they are on this planet. There is hope. But, we cannot expect positive change during our lifetimes. the solution is simple really: determine who is really to blame for our problems and deal with them. Yes we are part of the problem as well. “the devil is a foe to the blood” Prof. Minor |

What the hell is wrong with us?! ^^ This ^^ I don't really understand the obsession over categorizing generational differences. For one, we're all just people. For two, each generation is literally a product (and therefore a responsibility of) the previous generation so when you knock the generations who come after you, you are really knocking your own generation's ability at producing capable human beings. I will say that, as a millennial, I was brought up to believe that our nation would more or less take care of you as an individual if you put forth your best effort. Not that you would get everything for free, but that there was some common decency in the world and that you wouldn't have to be a cut throat fucking asshole 24/7 and help be part of the further degradation of our species and society. Yes, there was some genuine butt hurt amongst us millennials initially at realizing the world is actually a cold hearted biatch lol. Now, looking around, we are all mostly working and doing the best we can with the obvious exceptions of course. Looking back at my parents generation, the hippies, I'd say my generation did the best we could lol. |

You are either boomer or millenial. This was changed a few years back. not too fucking bright are you generations are not 50 fucking years you stupid dumbass they are 20-ish years I was born in 1965 I am a gen xer Gen Y came next then the millennials My values are not the same as the boomers. The values of Gen Y are not the same as mine. The values of millennials are completely different as well. The newest generation ..."Z" I guess are more conservative and the millennials are f*cking hating that ^^ All just your opinion of course ^^ unless you are able to provide some sort of evidence that proves the wants, needs, and desires of millennials or any other generation is really that vastly different from any previous generation. At the end of the day, each generation needed/needs/and will need; -food -water -shelter from elements Remove any one of those things and see how much any one would care about silly generational break-downs. What was removed was actual teaching in the classroom. graduating class after graduating class walk out the doors with a high school diploma and most of them can't think for themselves. They have been taught to memorize wonderfully but actual critical thinking, logic, reason and problem solving skilles are not being taught to them actual history is not being taught as well. Communism is now being taught as a viable for of socio-economic governance...and the generations that have been taught this swallowed it whole. Communism is the antithesis to liberty, free thought and free will....your God Given freewill. Why do I suspect you are one of those millenials that do not know history and probably think that communism is viable and could work the next time Heh, then you don't know me well. In fact, this millennial just left you some green karma for a previous comment you made that was exactly spot on. You made a stupid comment man, just own it. Communism is gay as fuck, why even bring it up? You certainly are cocked and ready to make vast, sweeping judgements against other people, aren't you? Hmmm... |

Quoting: BillLumbergh We think we've seen crazy, we think we're already in the end times... Shit man, an eternal spirit would be telling all of us to be living it the fuck up right now because we haven't seen shit yet. |

Quoting: Swayed How does someone get a new job when every employer wants to see job history. I'm asking this objectively of course, i'm a grown man with a job and an apartment. Just playing devils advocate here. Entry level jobs provide the work hiatory. My grand daighter started at McDonalds, promoted to manager, got a job at the post office on the strength of McDonalds, promoted to post office supervisor job because she did a good job as an employee. She decided against college in order to work.My grand sons have worked pizza place and as farm laborer and both been promoted. Now one will graduate with bachelors in chemistry and the other is working on masters in chemistry. They both work summers. You get a work history by first working a crummy job, showing up for work on time every day and not slacking off, doing what the boss tells you to do. Then you have a recommendation for the next one. I keep hearing that it doesn't work like that any more, but my grandkids prove you wrong. My grandkids either shared apartments with other kids, like we used to do, or stayed home until out of school, Those situations were met by young people in the past. The difference is now kids haven't known the process and it blind sides them. As a society, we have somewhere (school?) given them the wrong idea. *** Good deeds bring rewards, bad actions bring troubles. That is a law of the universe. *** |
