>graduates college
>doesn't move back in with parents

why do idiots live in college dorms anyway? It's insanely expensive.
Go to a state school instead of some over priced, over rated ivy league or whatever.

because they didn't experience the hardship their parents did. and then they decided to enable the marxists

State schools require one or two years in the dorm. Unless you're commuting from home.

>why do idiots live in college dorms anyway?
My commute to university was 1-1.5 hours *in one direction*. Being rattled in a bus for 2-3 hours, I was zombified by the end of the day and my family bothering me all the time didn't help me focus either. When I moved within 20 minutes of my university my grades went from A- to straight A+'s. If you live within 20 minutes of the university with your grandparents who aren't bothering you all the time , that's probably the ideal.

1) They forced everyone born after them to pay into social security so that they can retire at 65, now they are raising the retirement age to 70.

2) The college degrees were so cheap, once everyone had one it became a requirement to get any non-entry job

3) Jobs won't pick younger people because boomers have much more experience and credentials since they paid next to nothing for them

4) They bought all the houses causing the prices on them to skyrocket to life crippling prices

5) They make too much money from work to retire so the jobs aren't being passed around

6) There are many more issues you will find if you research

Damn

Stop crying about it and fix it you stupid fucking millennial faggots.

Actually you won't have to. Gen Z will do it for you.

lol what a terrible generation you millennials are.

A

This

New Cars used to be geared towards men in their early 20s
A High School Student could afford a used one in one summer of work
Instead of adjusting to the next generation they just continued to market toward Boomers and upped the prices.
My old man had a 1970 Challenger he bought when he was younger than I am now
Today a Dodge Challenger costs 44 Grand
This mentality forced young people to buy older and older used cars

Then
And this is the kicker
When the economy collapsed in 2008 the Boomer solution was to have the government buy all the old used cars (Cash for Clunkers) and destroy them
Which eliminated a huge portion of the used car market causing prices to skyrocket
All this so Boomers could get a good deal on their old car to buy a new one during the worst economic crisis of our lifetimes

Remember too that the USA was the only country who's manufacturing infrastructure wasn't literal rubble after WW2. Boomers fucked that up by being greedy and lazy and failing to modernize so that when other countries built back up they were putting out better products for cheaper.

The auto industry is a great example. GM and Chrysler deserved to die back in 08 because they had been pumping out hot fucking garbage for decades that people still bought because hurr buy American even though most of that shit was hecho en mexico anyway. Meanwhile back then I was in a podunk flyover shit state getting trashed for driving an "import rice burner" that was built in Kentucky.

Boomers who voted for Trump because all the manufacturing jobs are gone? Ya'll fucking got rid of them because you wanted cheap cars and appliances.

He's right you whiney child. Seriously. This next generation, Z or whatever is turning out to be more mature than us millennials. And thank fucking God for that.

46 yr old here.. not a boomer but I will say I am glad I am not 25. Jobs are going to continue to be automated away...

Gen Z is gonna turn on Millennials so fucking fast it's gonna make our cry baby heads spin.

I hope they hunt us down and kill us all desu.

>millennials crying on Mongolian pizza tossing board rather than working on thier lives or selves

This is why so many of us are pissing away your inheritance or passing it straight to your (by that I mean Jamal's) children

George Lopez was so fucking smug about that cash for clunkers bullshit and Obama's nearly trillion dollar stimulus. I'm so glad this fucking Bush/Obama mega spending bullshit is coming to an end. A giant god damn wall actually costs less than half of the shit the last 2 administrations burned through.

>Why did boomers ruin the economy?

A handful of individuals ruined the economy,

Boomers are not a problem. Something else happened around 1945. Anoter group of ((people)) came to america ...

They didn't ruin anything. They took advantage of opportunity like any else would have.

Because the elite forced lsd and meth down their throat and then offered them million dollar credit deals + deficit spending to offset their quality of life.

Boomers are not a problem. Something else happened around 1945. Another group of ((people)) came to america ...

Yes to some degree

But allowing the Marxists to gain such a strong grip on everything is their biggest failure

We out number them 3 to 1, but they are gonna get so pissed at us. Hell, I hate us.

'81 oldfag reporting in

Our generation, part of it at least will save you millenials if you'll only allow us.
We're the working middle class who voted against Shill dawg.
the men of my generation are waking up, i'm even noticing subtle naming of the Jew going on in real life...its coming young fags...answer the call, be the strong men.

^This. I'm not sure how many generations throughout history had it better than both their parents AND their children, but they certainly did.

you have to go back

because they were faggots. the best thing old ass people and half the boomers did for us was put trump in.

i know man. all my old friends were pretty much "DUDE DRUGS,WELFARE AND SOCIALISM LMAO"

>3) Jobs won't pick younger people because boomers have much more experience and credentials since they paid next to nothing for them

fucking this. tried out for manager position for 5 years and didn't get shit because i was too young. 3 of the people we hired did not last because of health issues. fucking boomers

They've redeemed themselves significantly with Brexit and Trump. Whilst disgusting gen y faggots cry because they didn't get to shoot themselves and everyone else in the foot again.

The mainstream media used to be quite good pre internet. Then it just quickly transitioned into the filth it is today, boomers probably didn't notice. Didn't have to because they were set, and just wanted to take it easy after decades of work.

They're mostly good people just a bit ignorant and skewed.

i red-pilled my 9 year old sister. at first she doubted me but she came around. niggers bullying her at school did half the work for me. she loves rare peps, hates muslims, laughs at snowflake hillary supporters and laughs at gender-slurpee people.

pic related. it's her favorite pepe

millinelas = laziest generation of all time

maybe if you guys got out, met a few people, made a few handshakes, and hit the pavements, youd understand a thing or two.

life is hard - no one is going to show you how to do everything. this isnt a video game, there are no cheat codes.

try putting some effort in - youll be surprised and thank me later.

It's true. All of it is true.

Our great grand parents laid the building blocks for the greatest civilizations the world has ever seen.

Our grand parents reached a zenith we have been falling from ever since. They cracked the atom, they left the confines of the Earth. By the time they were done, a man could swim in the oceans like a fish, soar in the skies like a bird and dig underground like a mole. They bested the the innumerable diseases that had scourged mankind since the dawn of time.

And what did the boomers leave behind for everyone? Nothing. Worse still, they turned on their parents, siphoned their wealth and locked them away in foster homes to wither and die, unwilling as they were to compromise the life of luxury their parents secured them. Oh but that still wasn't enough. The feral, hedonistic, addled-minded children they raised have to be bled dry to support these boomer vampires. After all, they don't want to end up in nursing homes like mom and pop did!

Honestly, the best way to get back at the boomers is to abolish the welfare state. Shut down the old age pensions, the income assitance schemes. Let them end their days eating whiskas and getting beaten up and robbed by the 3rd worlder caretakers they inflicted on their parents and their children. Let them reap what they sowed.

Tl;dr fuck boomers.

'89 fag here I'm too mentally ill to help. Just started lifting again because my anti-psychotic medication made me gain 100 pounds in a year and a half.

I'm glad I'm on disability, automation took most of the jobs for my education level. I have marketable skills as a renovator but I don't see any point in continuing this only going to get worse with automation.

The garbage men don't even pick up the bins anymore here. They just have a mechanical arm do the work for them. For some reason they still have two people to a truck though (job was probably saved by unions).

I'm scared man, I have a shit memory and that's why I never did well in school and at life in general. Economic collapse is on the horizon, the bubble is just waiting to pop. My-sit-on-ass money might get lowered during the shit storm.

How fucked are we now that the bees and fish and dying by the thousands every day. I looked at how many reports of mass animal deaths there are right now. Tens of Thousands of fish a week are washing up on shore and no one knows exactly why. Bee populations are decimated, most likely by pesticides. What happens when we run out of food?

I feel like this is the end of days for people like me. Who can't properly function in a society.

It wasn't the boomers, it was the Silent Generation that ruined everything.

>anti-psychotic medication made me gain 100 pounds in a year and a half.
born same year. that kind of happened to me when i was 18, except i gained 50 pounds in one month and dont remember most of it. i never took a pill like that in my life.

>The mainstream media used to be quite good pre internet.

You don't know what you're talking about.

You're only saying that because of rose tinted glasses. The only reason we're able to say MSM sucks now is because we all now have easily accessible information to do our own fact checking.

Boomers didn't ruin anything. Young generations have tons of possibilities. You're just a loser

That sucks. I guess I would have started lifting a month after instead if it happened that fast.

How many elephants did you eat?

I'm not saying it was based but shows like 60 minutes used to do interesting serious stories now it'll do an entire show on Kim Kardashians asshole and now the mainstream media is more about demoralisation.

You faggot you knew that. Waste my time.

i dont really remember. stay away from remeron.
the dissociation is real.

this is true. it only started a few years ago when every was starting to get handheld. now any idiot can spread their cancer.

>tfw 30 year old, white, with a decent job, a fiancee who is also white and right wing
>everytime I get called a millenial which I technically am since I was born 86 I just die a little inside

ehh, they are gonna lump us in with the braindead age group. dont worry about it.

No I don't remember that. Finland was more flourishing than ever industrially after WW2 and made highest rise of nation economics in human history ever, faster than ever

bump, boomers fucked up everything

as soon as that generations dies, the world would fix it self, why cant their be a rapture? GOD TAKE THEM!!!


IF YOU DONT DO IT; WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO DO IT OURSELF

fuck the race war, what we need is a GENERATION WAR;;;;WIPE OUT THOSE OLD BASTARDS!!!!!!!!!!!

It's just that when people say millenials the first thing that comes to mind is Carl the cuck & Aids Skrillex and being included in the same category as them just makes me want to drive to Paris, go to Starbucks at the Champs Elysées and go postal on all the fucking faggots that go there instead of drinking a real espresso like a man.

ourselves

well, just dont dress like them and act like an entitles hipster faggot who is on their phone every waking minute. those things are the biggest issue. a gang needs formed to go around and smash peoples handhelds.

I like you. On the day of the rake you will be spared.

oh we'll fix it, we'll fix you all up real good.

Because LBJ

My man, like I said I'm 30, in a suit all day, I don't act like them or associate with any of them, and I'm right wing.

It just rubs me the wrong way everytime there's a millenial thread and I see that some jewish sociologist thought it would be a good idea to lump us all together in the same category.

Because the millenials the media portrait, and us, are different, good that the Gen Z will fuck up all this hipsters and SJWs, when the revolution comes i ll be cutting head with them.

it's almost like a college degree actually meant something back in the day, huh?

is not us, is the polluted degenerate millenials that hollywood, tv, and boomers, created, we should be cleaning this shit up ourselves, 30% of millenials are worth something, the rest needs to go.

t. tatted-up gen z 15 year old with a maga hat sitting on top of his balding head with two gauged earlobes underneath while he does "dabs"

>tfw you realize categorizations are a jewish invention

i am a proud millenial that scams boomers out of their money, to buy silver, tools, and weapons, you should do the same.

i have to get myself a suit. i only wear military pants and plain shirts. almost everyone my age dresses like a hipster and some wear camo ironically with peacock colors which makes me look bad.

and as you can see, kek fucking agrees

Boomers are bad. But millennials are the worst.

>this isnt a video game, there are no cheat codes.
>he has to cheat to play a videogame
lol scrub

I work corporate so it's not like I have the choice.

One word of advice though : go for tailor made, it's not as expensive as people make it out to be if you find the right place and will be miles better than any overpriced haute couture brand.

if you are talking about the "tv" millennials, then yes, but let me ask you, who created this system of easiness, in which rich kids dont give a fuck and just leech?, this all the boomers, raking what they have sow

the rest of millennials will take charge, we putted trump in the white house for fucks sake.

Rebel millennials were the ones who pushed trump over the line, msm says its boomers, but no,boomers where already the base, based millennials did this.

>go for tailor made
i was raised around certain types of "italians".
i know what to do.

That's bullshit lie

Business casual office masterrace

Polo and slacks and I'm A-ok

Kids in high school are getting more redpilled than they were in the recent past

They live on the Internet and always have. They are gradually understanding and are sick of PC bullshit before they even enter college.

Thank god for Trump.

Fuck off, the Viper is god-tier. Everything else is shit though.

boomers changing their ways

minority of based millennials

TRUMP

imagine when Gen Z joins in, we are going to take back the world.

Huh, I always hear how the next generation is worse, but the previous... really makes you think :^)

IF YOU ARE READING THIS; YOU WON THE Sup Forums SUPER LOTTO.

50M is ready to be disbursed at your convenience. All you have to do is mail us your bank account information, and a small security deposit.

sorry to hear that buddy, you should try to find someone who will promote your renovation works, you will have to give the a cut, but you can market it as a rich guy service and charge a lot, try not to lose hope. Good luck god bless.
(you can always scam boomers ;))

>This is why so many of us are pissing away your inheritance or passing it straight to your (by that I mean Jamal's) children
This is why old people deserve no respect at all unless they're from a generation before you.

If you don't leave your children an inheritance and are intent on destroying the correct move from them is to murder you in your sleep.

if things get that ugly (no farms, bees or fish), your disability will the least concern. Use your spare time to learn to survive. (if you dont know already).

'94 fag here. I grew up in bumblefuck Australia and only lived in Brisbane for a couple of years in my late teens. Ever since I've been in Georgia. I went through a silly Marxist phase as a teen but I've grown a lot more traditionally conservative.

I never really experienced the entitled bullshit I see on the news and read about online. Are milennials really that bad? Or is it just nonsense drummed up by anyone with a soapbox?

I don't even know what Gen I am. Y?

>says we are lazy

Cant even bother to spell Millennials, at least semi decently, even when having autocorrect.

Yeah keep telling yourselves that worked hard ahahaha

Shut up you backwoods old fag. They've been saying jobs will be automated away since the invention of the scythe.

Not an argument.

you are a millennial, we have been used as the scape goat, tv and hollywood brainwashed many of us into becoming useless sheep, and when sheeping is not working, boomers blame us for the world THEY created.

they need to die off, and quickly, as soon as the system falls, non-based millenials will adapt and survive, and we, the based millennials, will lead them.

>best ID

Honestly though, reading about Cash for Clunkers after forgetting about that (was an out of touch middle schooler at the time), it makes a hell of a lot of sense. Lifestyle/Self-preservation and greed of older generations making financial shit annoying as an early 20s fag... >:C

100% agree, I'm 24 and my city used to have affordable housing, it wasn't government subsidized bit homes were built with the common man in mind.

Now they're half a million and look like mansions, they're marketed to boomers and people who want a 50 year payment plan. Fuck that, I want a 3-4 bedroom home. That's it, a room for the boys and one for the girls, and maybe a third extra aside from the master. Not this 8 bedroom house shit.

And fuck off with a 23,000 light truck.

We will, we will get rid of the fucking ethics and the dammned human rights, and go full eugenesic

They didn't have the internet to counter the Jewish lies.

fuck I did the same to my 12 when she started to learn about ww2 at school, I introduced her to the JQ

'89-fag here. PhD student who has shrugged off the mental indoctrination. Deal with young millennials as peers and students. Can confirm that most of them will not pick up the torch. The "left-fascist" indoctrination system has been very, very successful.

a huge problem with boomers is they hear that their kid is making x amount of money at a job and say 20k a year, and they have the mind to believe that 20k a year will still go as far as 20k a year did back in the 60's and 70's and 80's even if your lucky enough to have any job today.

I'm Gen X. I'll be glad to help Gen Z purge the boomers and millenials.

Fucking degenerates.

Fuck...you boys need a to learn a trade and put that nervous energy to work.
Fuck what society tells you too, the 'women are into construction types' is not a meme...
get a manly occupation, and throw a profile on tinder talking about how your a real, traditional man and spit some basic game...
its fucking simple today...
learn a skill, become indispensable in the future economy where everyone has a degree in pencil pushing.

'86 here, 30 year old, unemployed. Interview at movie theater on Monday, which I may have to cancel my Thanksgiving plans to get the job.

What makes the Baby Boomer generation so different from other generations is that they believe they don't have to obey the "golden rule" when it comes to their children and countrymen. They see their children's generation as something to be exploited, not nurtured.

They have exploited their children's generation into high college debts. The boomer generation REFUSES to train their children's generation straight out of high-school, "someone else needs to train my employees" they say. They complain about "skills gap" and import foreign labor instead of giving their children skills.

youtube.com/watch?v=_QKbIb8wcz0&t=12m20s

Disgusting fat boomers in their RV. Working hard to sabotage their children and leave nothing to them in retirement.

It's true for me

>clean up this mess I made for me

no

Awww. 2cute4me

>0k a year will still go as far as 20k a year did back in the 60's and 70's and 80's

this starts a lot of disagreements between my grandmother and i.

she is stuck in this time loop where current reality doesnt exist.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THIS MAKES ME ANGRY FUCK

>state school
>compared to ivy league
It's not about the price user, it's about the opportunities that come with the degree

The Ivy League isn't overrated, it's hard to get into and hard to study at. You are guaranteed a $80,000+ job upon graduation even if you major in Hispanic Studies while at a state school you're fucked if you do the same

man housing prices in the US are ridiculous, world wide also, but you are getting specially screwed, but hopefully in the great die off of boomers, many funds and properties will change hands, as inheritors blow their money, sell cheap, the market will change, i am 25, hopefully when we and 32-33, that will be happening, is a good age to start a family.

Because everyone had money. 60s, 70s 80s, life just got better and better. By the time the 80s rolled around, race relations were chill. The Jim Crow was gone, the civil rights movement had worked and the 70s anti-discrimination laws were in place.

Women, the 2nd wave feminists hit the workforce in the 70s. During the 1980s, they were making more money than their husbands. Century 21 marketed that gold jacket to housewives entering the workforce for the first time, and the housing boom and the women who ran it at ground level, ruled the economy. It was such an economic trend that women made more money than men, that they made tv shows and movies about the phenomenon.

Certainly, it appeared things would keep spiraling up; that life would continue to get better for every generation. Industry was booming, construction was booming, people were happy, race relations were fine, women were making more money because they worked for it, college educations were more available for your own children, and everyone was buying houses, two cars, and three tvs.

If we made mistakes, it was based upon how wonderful shit was at the time, and our belief that it would even be better for the next generation just as it had become better for every generation. Hindsight is 20/20, but the picture at the time was rosy and getting rosier.

And then the 90s showed up. Drugs entered the picture, cocaine was everywhere, causing the turf wars in the cities and white flight. And Nafta, which took away our industry and when coal and steel fell, so did the auto industry. The Clintons did it, now that I know what I know now...I would not be surprised if their plans to subjugate and enslave America were already being worked on, even then. Loose the cocaine, lock everyone up, send industry out of the country. It seems to have marked the downturn.
