Joking?
Gen X: "First time?" meme.
Me: I wanna jump off a bridge
My biological mother: Want me to drive you there?
💀
My gen x ass was coming to post this exact thing. Well done.
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.
Do a flip!
What was the joke and what are they not going to see coming?
“Probably better to die than pretend like I can afford a house before I’m 90” or something. Not those exact words.
That end is a bit ominous, you alright?
I have a reason I have to get up. I joked about being able to buy a house before I died. Not that I want to get up. But I’m obligated.
Its not like most of us care we are not mentioned in the same place these losers are.
Exactly the point of GenX, please keep ignoring us. It's why we dress in black.
Is that the reason? I just prefer not to wear light colors that get visibly dirty so easily.
We have talked too long. Back to the batcave.
And this is why we don't
Generation self defined by apathy and nihilism gets overlooked?
Generation "Mentions not getting mentioned any time people talk about generations"
Generation bitches and whines about being ignored while being the largest voting bloc behind the return of fascism
I just wish most gen x were actually disaffected and alienated and not just constantly demanding relevance. You were a latchkey kid and you have better references than us, get over it.
Meh. Whatever.
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.
While I agree that it is a distraction from the real war at large, the class war, I do want to point out that it very much is real, as you have actual people out there who argue about stupid shit like this. Sad, but that's humans for ya.
X marks the spot, still looking though.
Just gonna put on my plaid shirt and strum mournfully on a guitar now.
That makes you a millennial right? This is the hipster vibe you're going for?
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.
Yeah but instead of joking about suicide like a normal person, boomers write confusingly veiled songs about it and pretend they're family friendly.
Looking at you, David Bowie! Space Oddity isn't for children!
I feel like Boomers' jokes about hating their spouse is thinly veiled suicidality jokes. Like, they're giving big "I did everything I was meant to and I hate my life" energy
I guess so, but blaming your sadness on someone you promised to love is a dick move if they never did anything wrong, and most wives never did anything wrong
You know the sayings: "We're standing on the shoulders of giants" and "he walked so we could run" etc.
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.
