This younger generation amazes me at times

I like that. I'm gonna use it. Youngin's are infecting my gym.

Well and the ones in my gym would actually recommend me stuff to take and one dude told me I’d be so much bigger if I was taking what he was and I ask him what he was taking and he said tren and test that he wanted to “get back “ what he’d lost lmmfao! Me much bigger? Ha ha my dam arms was bigger than his legs and he said I was small lol!! And it’s not just one dude it’s like a pack of 2-4 friends in a group they tickle me to

I remember watching the Vietnam war protests in the 60's as a kid. With the younger generation thinking the old farts didn't understand things. And the old guys thinking the younger generation didn't have a clue as to how things worked. Pretty sure old timers like me have always thought that the younger crowd was ignorant and didn't give me enough respect. Seems to be the nature of society.

I talk to the younger generation often and these kids have no personality. It’s sad. You can’t even have a conversation with them. Not to mention there slang is all new to understand and I’m lost 99% of the time.

The slang in and of itself doesn't really bother me. Every generation has their own slang. The difference is that in the past people grew up and stopped talking that way. How many boomers who grew up in the 50's or 60's continued to use the same slang as adults? Virtually none. How many who grew up in the 1920's continued to use terms like "23 skidoo" as adults. None!

When you are a teenager or in your early twenties you don't realize how stupid your generations slang sounds to everyone else. In the past people grew up, went to work, got married, took on adult responsibilities, etc. and stopped acting and talking like children. Today we have people in their 30's who act like perpetual teenagers. Subsequently since they still act like children they continue to talk like them as well. I don't expect that this is going to get any better with future generations coming up and will very likely get even worse.

Honestly… this thread is kinda hilarious to me. I can’t imagine caring or being this annoyed by kids. Yeah, they’re goofy. We all were young and goofy. They’ll all follow dumb trends, do stuff that’s silly, etc.

I’d try and just laugh it off and not let it bother you assuming they’re not doing anything truly disruptive or disrespectful

There is a point where I agree with you but if you have to work with these kids everyday and try to make them adults it gets annoying, especially when you notice people with potential. After a while you know who does and who doesn’t. These are college level individuals as well. I recall my days back then but it’s so much worse now. College acceptance rates are ridiculously high bc it’s about the money and this generation hasn’t completed an assignment or task without using AI. They have lost critical and creative thinking skills and think that research ability is using google or AI.

As for my kids I laugh it off cuz they aren’t even half as bad as their mother and I were at their age. I just wish I understood what they were saying all the time lol.

In this context I can totally understand the frustration

I think I know who you’re talking about, that young Asian kid who looks like he’s 120 pounds wet, he doesn’t even look like he works out, he looks like he does jumping jacks All day long lol

Jumping jacks give a mean leg pump

How about the kids that have absolutely no muscle who are flexing in the locker room mirror!! And they don’t stop when a guy like me with 70 lbs of solid muscle on them!!! . I used to be embarrassed when caught flexing when I was a youngster at 24 years old and a solid 220lbs. Even at 48 I still smoke these young Furr Balls/Bieber haired/broccoli head idiots!!!

Are we really talking about flexing on kids rn haha

no I’m not flexing on em. I don’t do anything lol. I just know there is no way in hell I would be flexing like that in the mirror, especially if a very muscular guy walks in. It makes me remember how we would say “ya gotta have muscles to flex” and “you can’t flex fat”.

It’s cringey for sure lol but I just don’t let it bother me. Hopefully some day they’ll have stuck with it and look back and cringe themselves

They lack of parenting or just shitty parenting is the problem Not the kids.
The kids are the result of poor parenting.
Parents want to b friends and not parents because being a parent is hard.
They are lazy, just give the kid a phone, tablet, or sit them infront of the television to keep them occupied because its easier than taking the time to positively interact with the kids.
Parents are failing miserable....

Gatekeeper just means “they aren’t agreeing with me and telling me what I want to hear”

Fuck ‘em.

I give all of them the opposite of good advice now. I figure the more I can help them fuck themselves up, the less competition I’ll have for reproduction. And if we all did that and served our true purpose…. The world would be way less retarded.

Let nature take its course. We’re literally fucking the world up by helping them survive.

It's like comedian Chris Porter said...."Let's take some warning labels off shit." You want to eat paint, then eat it. Look it up on Youtube. It's a hilarious bit.
