As a millennial I also have something to tell Gen Z. Toothpaste can be used to clean silver, 50% of flour in most baking recipes can be replaced with whole wheat flour with no need for further adjustments, and wash graphic tees inside out.
P.S. - shave a bar of soap and add it to a blender with a box of borax and a box of washing soda. When it’s blended, store it in an air tight container and revel in _80 loads_ of laundry detergent.
The loudest ones are usually the most tame irl. If they really did you don’t need to go around bragging about committing crimes that brings too much unwanted attention 😂
Literally, my mom raised me to be kind. Almost every day she said “idc who they are, you never know what someone’s going thru, be kind” then I grew up “liberal” and she has the audacity to be bitter abt it. You raised me girl??? You voted for Obama???
I honestly think this is just parents that raised their kids poorly now taking out their frustration on an entire generation. Like the fact that they’re upset about something and their reaction is to imply violence is very telling.
considering boomers also raised millenials who they hate but ultimately have a lot in common with, i feel like this is a pattern. whether that's bc they see too much of themselves in the younger generation which makes criricizing them easier and more personal, or this is just redirected family drama, is hard to say
Yeah like, I had pretty protective parents and I was allowed to watch Gremlins as a kid. That movie is definitely aimed at younger audiences than most horror lol
It's not a real horror film correct. Millennials and Zoomers grew up with actual snuff films on LiveLeak anyway. I've seen enough gore of actual dead bodies online that it didn't bother me in medicine besides the smell. 🤷♀️
As a millennial librarian I do have some advice for gen z. Please, if you ever want to save something for the future-like say you’re packing up for college and putting some childhood papers/cards/retro photos in boxes-do not use a rubber band to keep it together! I’m not sure how relevant this is anymore, but give it a decade and that rubber band essentially turns into dried pasta. Also, a lot of grandma’s recipes were probably cut from the back of a cereal box or a soup can (there’s some really fascinating research on this!). So if you aren’t talking anymore or you never got the chance to ask, a quick google search might help you find that nostalgic taste you’re craving.
Gen X went from "Nobody remembers us and we don't care" straight to FULL ON BOOMER RAGE targeted at their own children so damn fast, it's incredible and it's embarrassing.
This whole situation reminds me of several years ago when boomers and millennials (ie. parents and their children) were arguing on the internet too. I guess it must just be a thing where as soon as your kids hit their early 20s you start to get jealous of them or something? 🤔As a millennial I still think that boomers are the shittiest generation of all time.
As a millennial I also have something to tell Gen Z. When ironing something made of cotton, linen, or wool, mist it with water first so that it's damp. For best results, let it cool/dry on the ironing board before picking it up. Laying an unvarnished piece of wood (like a clean cutting board) on top of it helps speed up the cooling/drying process.
Also a Millennial; to Gen Xers, Adding white vinegar to your laundry loads is a good substitute for fabric softener. The vinegar scent goes away once the clothes are dry.
I also have some advice. Don't buy clothes that you need to follow special advice for, it will save you time and money. And bleach is only for items that are completely white, like socks, underwear, and some white towels and washcloths. Don't make the mistake my sister made who thought that bleach was always for clean towels and bleached her black towels.
As a 35 yo, I am so embarrassed for these full grown adults picking fights with teenagers on social media. How can they not see how ridiculous they are, holy f*ck
Gen Z is as old as 27, so it's not *entirely* with teenagers, plenty of them are post-college age. Gen alpha is getting into the teenage years at this point.
@@Strega_del_Corvo I know… and it’s gotten to the point where our own gen xers actually are picking fights with us because we’re not “REALLY” Gen X if we’re born at tail end of the generation. None of it makes sense.
the line blur between the gens is real cuz we were kind of all just call millenials. even the oldest of gen z remember being* called millenial and being blamed for sht 10 years before we were even sperm lol
@@Givemepeanutbutter jebus you're right. I prema think of y'all as 13-15 but generally I mean you're not anywhere near positions of power in a way at that could have made things the way they are. Y'all CERTAINLY didn't start the fire.
Yep. So it's actually grandparents starting beef with their grandkids while their own children are just doing the best they can to keep everyone alive! I've been saying it for quite a while, and at this point it's the only thing getting me through the days...the whole world will be so much better off once Gen Z and Alpha are in charge. If we Milenillals accomplish nothing else, I HAVE to believe we've raised better kids!
As a gen x who spend a lot of time online, this video is literally the first I've heard of 'our' plans to do any such thing. Half of those clips are just jokes, it's common gen x humor to make fun of ourselves by acting corny, that 'rise up' stuff was for sure a joke. And you also found a few clips from a few Karens whining about 'kids these days' which seems to be a right of passage for every single generation. Zoomers are already starting on it for gen alpha. Most Xers have barely even figured out z is out of highschool now, there is no war LOL!
@@OnceUponaTimeline Idk there's a guy (Angry Guy) who keeps popping up on YT who seems a bit too serious. It might be jokes in some cases but IDT GenX has any special distribution of buffoons. If you act foolish you find yourself with fools who believe themselves in good company.
I saw a comment on one of those videos with a Gen X woman proudly bragging that she won't take her Gen Z kid to therapy because her parents wouldn't have taken her. You're lashing out about your abuse on the kids you're abusing now and you're proud of it.
@@halfknight2310 yeah, she was like "lmao I never told my parents anything and they only told me when dinner would be on the table and to not talk back. She wants therapy and I cannot fathom that she's so fragile, Gen X is so much tougher lol"
@@zealousamourous I would say they cared a lot since they were the generation that established the counter culture movement. The concept of the “silent majority” is where they get their moniker, but at the same time, the civil rights movement of the 60s was their responsibility.
There are asshats calling people snowflakes in every generation. That's Republicans, not X'ers. I mean there here, they exist and they are the correct age. But you are attributing a trait as generational, when it is political.
also it's fun how they're like "we don't plan, we just do, we don't need to list out things" as if this call to war isn't planning something, if you "just do" things you wouldn't need to make all these calls for gen x to assemble. there has been all planning and zero doing in this scenario lmfao
Even tho they also neglected Gen Z, so now they're just a angry old man sitting in their chair, and instead of realizing that they have wasted their life, they keep on pretending that they're the forgotten child that did no wrong
i should tell my gen x parents about this so we can make fun of this clownery together. they’d be just as confused about what these people are so pressed about
Gen X here that survived a deeply negligent and abusive childhood with long lasting trust and abandonment issues. Somehow turned into a successful business lady. I love my Gen Z analysts. They are dynamic thinkers and one of the kindest demographics I've ever met.
Gen X mom to Gen Z daughter here. We are over here enjoying crystals and thrifting and all the cool things from my childhood that are now "vintage" and cool. My daughter is "softer" bc I worked hard to give her a soft life. I would love for her to have known the joy of being outside all day, wandering around with friends til the street lights come up, but alas the world is unsafe and we don't watch out for each other like we used to. Generational beefs and blaming toxic behavior on astrological signs are insane.
I come across so many signs saying "no skate boarding, no biking", some people will even call the cops on teenagers for "loitering" at parks. I hear complaints all the time. Kids can't even exist in places anymore! The defunding of education, the rise in abusive adult content, and the fact that both parents have to work in order to sustain a family all lead up to this. It is incredibly hard to raise kids these days. Parents need more time to properly parent their children. We don't always get that these days.
My mom is gen x and says to me all the time that she wishes i could've experienced the fun stuff she used to do outside but could not bring herself to trust the world enough to let us run wild 💀
Its almost like the generation before the boomers had some wonderous ways of making the neighborhoods safe that have been criminalized because the older generations that are still living viewed them as too brutal, and uncivilized. Its almost like you really shouldn't have let yourselves become prisoners within your own country.
I am an elder millennial with a gen x sister. That whole notion is bullshit. If anything, we were one of the most looked after generations because the whole neighborhood was looking after everybody's kids. Not in a weird way. Not once did I ever see anybody drink from a hose. We would go to our neighbors that we knew, and they would give us cookies and something to drink like Kool-Aid.
Gen Z kids are running around their high schools with vapes and cigarettes AND guns. Yeah, pretty sure times have changed a LOT. Coming from a gen z kiddo, I laugh at what gen x is saying. No one is "cancelling" Eminem, or whatever. I've met so many people in gen z who LOVE Eminem.
@@SairePickens ABOUT THAT, i saw a kid who looked like, nine years old, vaping while walking WITH HIS PARENTS. the problems DEFINITELY come from how parents raised them.
As a Gen Zer with a Gen Xer mom, she keeps talking about how we’re so soft and can’t take anything and how her mother raised her so differently. I asked her “why didn’t you raise us like your mother did then?” And suddenly she was at a loss for words
As a GenXer with "Silent generation" parents? This is just "parent brain". They told us the same thing and we complained about it just like you are. You will tell your kids the same thing too unless you make the conscious effort to remember this. That is also part of "parent brain" - you forget how often your parents made things easy for you. Or they forget how rebellious they were as kids. It's like amnesia or something. But I also believe that every generation is "softer" than previous generations because of technology. Technology isn't just a smart phone, it's also the person that first used a controlled fire to cook or raised a farm animal rather than just hunting constantly. I'm sure other strengths come out though like focusing on mental wellness.
@@melissas4874 honestly makes sense what you said, and I don’t have any gripes with how my mom raised me (or with my mom at all) I just thought this was funny because it’s odd to complain that a child that you raised wasn’t raised properly. But oh well there’s worse things I guess. At least I have a great relationship with my mom
I think its sad because you know damn well when she was expecting you she told herself she was gonna do right by you she was gonna do everything her mom didn't let her do yadda yadda we hear it all the time and then now that we've reached this point I don't know she's becoming brainwashed by the white noise bullshit other people in her generation love spewing out?? It makes me really sad. My mom tells me (she was .. oof is haha a boomer 1956, and I guess I'm considered a millennial 1993) when she was growing up children were expected to be seen and not heard.
as a daughter (gen z) of a millennial mom that used to beat my ass because of my undiagnosed autism symptoms, beating doesn’t make you tough, it teaches you to cry in your pillow instead of speaking up and seeking help. Dont beat kids guys
either that or it makes you a rageful, angry person who easily resorts to violence. we actually know exactly what hitting your kids does, and it pretty much universally results in angrier, sadder, more anxious, less socially conscious people.
I'm so sorry, I had hoped that my generation is going to try to do better, that we all collectively wanted to do better, to not repeat our parent's mistakes. Violence against your kid is never ok - it's a sign of weakness, of inability to communicate your feelings. Is your mom in therapy, are you? Is she putting any effort to do better? Regarding abuse, there's a book that is centered around partner abuse but I think it describes motivation of abusive behaviour pretty well in other dynamics and I think it's of incredible value for any young person - especially neuro divergent folks - to take time to read it. It's available online for free - Lundy Barcroft, the title is "Why does he do that". I think understanding the reasons why people resort to abuse and violence is,in way, incredibly freeing for victims as it sort of, vindicates the fact that it's *not your fault*. Please take care and stay strong ❤
@@margodphd at least i hope gen z is the generation that speaks up and stops the cycle of abuse and neglect in families, i am on good terms with my mom now so no hard feelings but it was some kind of trauma i had as a kid
Funny thing about movies is they still exist after the year they came out. I too watched 80s movies growing up in addition to the scary stuff on the Internet. It's so weird people forget about that, like when people talk about how their generation has the best music, I listened to the music my great grandmas mom listened to yesterday. You can find recordings of ancient gramophones on TH-cam. I'm jealous the generations to come will inherit our best media and have access to the media that doesn't exist for us yet. Good media survives and is seen by the later generations too
What confuses me about Gen X's obsession over Eminem is that he has been criticized since the beginning of his career. He was never universally loved. He's not Dolly Parton.
And he has been cringy his entire career. I was a child when “Without Me” came out… I thought it was stupid and tacky then too. His slim shady persona has always been the least interesting part of his career.
I'm 48. I have no idea what my peers are smoking. This shit is so cringe... The only thing rising in my world is my blood pressure and my desire to take a nap
@@courtneylee643 not really. This is a nature over nurture situation. We were thrown outside. I'm not proud of that. I have no beef with other generations. I don't get it. I don't know Eminem personally, so I don't care.
Proud Gen X'er here (born in 1974), and I fully stand by your stance on this absolutely ridiculous "beef" engaged by some of those in my generation. Keep up the excellent work, my dear Froggy!
@@KeefeSencen1543 if no one teaches you, you probably aren’t gonna go out of your way to learn it. And most cursive letters are legible even if you don’t know how to read it so it’s really not a needed life skill
I showed this to my chill af Gen X mom and literally 45 seconds before you mentioned the ads reminding them of their kids she brought up that they had billboards saying the same thing 😂
my mama is gen x and she always says "ohh we had to suck up to the older generations and now we've got young workers demanding that they dont have to work on weekends or do overtime! so we have to suck up to them too!!!" and no matter what i say she doesnt realize the common enemy there is her bosses 😭
I mean, there are still people who will legit tell you that "young men need a war to toughen them up" and actually mean it. This is the biggest bs I've ever heard. I'm born in 1988 and dude, I cannot imagine trying to make my kids' lives tougher than it needs to be. Aren't we supposed to make the next generations' lives better than ours? Why tf even have kids then if you do it just to shit on them. Or have them shat on by someone who is your age. Just mad.
@@GrimMelvin Born in 1989. I did the war thing. Not a great time, if I'm being honest. I don't think it made me tougher. It definitely made me more reckless in my 20s, after I got out of the Corps. I did a lot of dumb shit, fell in with the not-cool-side of the biker lifestyle and made some seriously poor choices that I'm still occasionally seeing consequences from. Ongoing therapy is helping with that kind of decision-making, and I'm way better off just as a human being now that I'm in my mid-30s and have left the lifestyle behind, but on the whole I think I probably would've been better off not...Y'know. Fighting in a war.
@@MidniteSpectre Thank you! I am, really. I've moved on from that life. I don't have quite as any "friends" as I used to, since I cut myself off from the community, but the friends I do have don't get me involved in dumb shit and I haven't spoken to a police officer besides to say hello in the gas station checkout line in over 2 years now, which is nice. I think I'm also just a generally better person. Much less aggressive, more accepting of other people. I just got done putting myself through trade school and honestly the Gen Z kids I met there helped mellow me out a lot. I've got no beef with the younger generation.
War is hell. You dont come back from war tougher. You come back forever traumatized and burdened with the guilt of murdering strangers for some cause above your pay grade which always has something to do with disputes between the ruling elites of this or that nation state and nothing to do with the actual people of those nations though they are often the victims or those duped into fighting and dying in the wars while the fat cats who declare them never for one second risk their lives. The victors of any war gain the privilege of writing the history as part of the spoils of war. This means that any mainstream version of history you read is going to present them, the victors, as the heroes and defenders of righteousness and justice who could never do wrong. And of course whoever lost said wars will in turn be portrayed as the worst monsters who ever lived. Even though both sides of any war commit atrocities daily as that is literally what war consists of, the victors get to pretend that what they did was noble and righteous while what their enemies did was a crime against humanity. And since this is America we are talking about where victimhood is worn like a status symbol veterans of war are often spoken of as if they were innocent victims of some big bad foreign military juggernaut, as you said "survivors". But in reality American forces entered the war later than any of the other Allies and so had the advantage of being fresher and stronger than all those who had already been fighting for some time and it was actually the U.S. who was the foreign military juggernaut invading Europe and carpet bombing ancient German cities from the relative safety of the air. Not that I have any sympathy for the Third Reich or anything, I have no sympathy for any government of any nation since I am an Anarchist. I do however sympathize with the average citizens, the non-combatants of every nation. They do not participate in the wars and have as much influence over who wields power as we do in our own country, which is none.
@@GhostlyMage-404al ot of people fough or fleed with the thought their future children shoildnt go through what they did??m i thought it was logixal for em all
I saw a creator from Gen X who made a great point. Gen X is going through their mid life crisis online. They don’t have the money to buy cars and holiday houses like the boomers. All they have is social media and they’re watching things get more and more confusing the older they get
Gen X here, it does get more and more confusing, but if you are willing to pay attention, it doesn't have to be overwhelming. So many of us see Kids These Days doing something and immediately criticize it. What we should be doing is learning from it. For example, a generation that grew up communicating by text probably knows the best ways of doing it. A text message isn't the same as a five page paper on Hamlet, and grammar rules for one wouldn't work well for the other. Be willing to let go of your own preconceptions and learn from the masters. It's not hard, and honestly? It's fun
Yeah that's kinda sad, we will all be there someday, and it's true, gen x had it pretty bad, all the boomer "work hard" nonsense, then the raise of retirement age, and now those same gen xers have to work alongside the class conscious young generations who know that stuff doesn't pay off, but the gen x ers can't get it out of their blood to operate the old ways. I get it, that how I almost waa, but I wrestled free of that mindset, and keep it on hold for contributing to mutual aid and volunteering, never at a job tho. I am gen z raised by older boomers in backward-ass small town desert 11 kids graduating 8th grade kinda small - so when I escaped to a city I caught up pretty fast but I was a self-righteous little mini- boomer myself until I got that internet connection in the city. 🖤💜💙💚💙💜🖤 Sorry to ramble, but your comment was very thought provoking hope you have a great night! 🖤💜💙💚💙💜🖤 Much Love!!
@@galaxy_blast5588 OK, so, if you're right and Gen Z isn't going through an early mid-life crisis, then their actually mid-life crisis should be scarily spectacular. Sort of glad I won't be around to see it.

Gen X-er here to tell you that when my Gen Alpha daughter told me about this TikTok trend, I did not believe what she was saying - “trying to cancel Eminem” … “scary threatening background music,” etc etc. Then she showed me the TikToks and I laughed so hard for so long. Absolute comedy gold. On a Venn diagram, the “Gen X Rise” circle is 100 percent overlaid with the “People you know from grade school who you hide from when you spot them at Target.”
yep, these were the people who were jerks when we went to school with them, they didn't get better, they just got more experienced at being annoying. we have them blocked on facebook.
Another Gen-X-er here, too. Yeah, these people are still doing the Al Bundy thing and talking about their "4 touchdowns in one game." If we ignore them, they'll melt back into the shadows and keep grumbling to themselves 🙄
I'm Gen X and respect how well Gen Z is doing for themselves. You are confident, articulate, and fun. Please know that the majority of Gen X doesn't hate you. Most of us are irritated by anyone who breaks down another generation.
Lmaooo it’s literally rage bait im gen Z and I’ve personally always viewed your generation as actually quite respectable, I’mfrom the UK and associate gen X with the 2nd summer of love of 1989, the rise of drunk and bass and rave and free party culture, I know more gen X’s in my life as either family or friends parents and I respect more or less all of you, this energy that I was introduced to through you guys has been carried on in my generation, we party just like it’s the 90s, I honestly just think the ppl in these videos are saddos who have nothing better to do in like than to start superficial beef with kids that couldn’t care less if they jumped off a bridge tomorrow cus they’re just bitter that they never lived the lives they wanted to that maybe we make a bit more visible these days due to social media, I love you guys and these ppl need to seriously get a life and stop living in the delusional world that they somehow had it so much rougher than us as if they’re from some sort of world war, I mean have you seen today’s economy?? Ppl just love to constantly complain man.
As a member of Gen Y (as in 'why the heck I am even here and how does this whole life stuff even work'?) I fear so much for the younger gens, honestly. I was lucky enough to not have apathetic parents, so I have been raised enthusiastic and militant, but fast-forward a few decades and I'm forced to realize just how disillusioned, tired and cynical I have turned out. Recent years have upended a lot of my convictions and things I personally took for granted, living through the p*ndemic as a hypochondriac somewhat hurt my ability to seek out and trust others, and in doing so to be in contact with outside perspectives and differing opinions, and wanting to keep up with the news and politics often means that I see the world as little more than a series of crises in waiting I feel pretty powerless to act on. And by many accounts, Gen Z has it even worse that we did; so seeing so many young people 1) grow up in such an unstable climate, without the security and certainties we had, and 2) still manage to harbor hope, have convictions, take action, and in some cases become symbols and role models for others always fills me with awe. Now that I'm firmly an adult, I do feel like I failed those kids; sure, a lot of the parameters and structures that inhibit them were already implanted when our generation was their age, but I keep thinking we could have done more or better - that I personally should have done more, especially in recent years, and that my own inaction is part of the problem. It's kind of an old chestnut to say that kids (and young adults) are the world's hope, but I do feel that way. Gen Z has a lot to deal with and yet so many of them are thriving- and boy are we in dire need of that kind of spirit right now. Hearing and seeing some younger activists also got me thinking about becoming more involved in political and social causes again, apathy be damned, and I thank them for that. I hope I never become the type of entitled older person to blame my own shortcomings on later gens or demand respect simply for being born earlier.
Fr they're kinda forgetting that a lot of gen z are adults and still had education without much technology involved at least through elementary. Yes, we also had to write essays in cursive lmao
Gen Z here, a portion of us are literally teenagers too. We physically cannot do anything, we can't vote, a portion of us have no say. And for the older portion, they still can't do much, you can't run for office or anything.
I don't get how drinking from a hose is a flex for these people. Thats filthy no matter how you slice it. Theyre pretty nuch bragging about poisoning themselves.
I never drank from a hose (that shit has a VERY particular nasty smell/taste) or jumped any fences (didn't even know anyone that had one). I hate that the jocky bullies that peaked in high school are now the ones making these ridiculous TikToks . So, just like in high school, I will just sit back and watch them act like fools for a little bit while they think it's really gonna get them places, but in reality they are just so miserable with their own lives that they have to tell their wives to threaten to kick my ass when I show up at the class reunion. LMAO, true story. We became friends because of that and their marriage only lasted 3 1/2 years.
Gen Xer here. I had no idea this was a thing! So, my generation is rising up? Where are we meeting? Is it a long trip? Should I take a nap first? Will there be food? I feel like I heard someone mention food.....seriously, those videos were hilarious! You know you're old and out of touch when you complain about the younger generations. Gen Z, you kids are doing alright! Most of you seem pretty smart and have good insight on what's going on in the world around you. Gives me hope for our future. Keep up the good work and ignore those Gen Xers that are going through a mid-life crisis.
I can't believe they use the whole "doing whatever we wanted as children and noone cared as long as we came home eventually" as a flex. My gen X parents always want me to text them where I'm going, who I'm with and when I'll be home because they want to know I'm safe. I don't think it's making me soft or anything, it just makes me feel loved and cared for :)
Exactly, my mom usually also asks me to send an update every few hours, if I'm like out with friends, to make sure I didn't get hit by a car or some shit : )
@@mynameisreallycool1 Not one of the few. It's how most Gen X parents are, because they know what it's like to feel neglected. Gen X just like to laugh about their trauma rather than be upset. It's funny because it's true.
Imma be real though: participation trophies aren't inherently bad, that's a myth. In fact there's no proof that it breeds lazyness, entitlement or even discourage competition.
@blackcrow4446 i font necessarily think it does any of that, but it is very pointless nonetheless. Though i do feel like it lessens the impact of winning when everyone gets a trophy, the participation trophy should be the fun people had while competing (granted not everyone is doing it for legitimate passion and are forced into it by parents and the like)
"Don't poke the bear" meanwhile they're attacking a generation that WILL doxx/ddos/SWAT you for a laugh, and Gen Z doesn't even LIKE the people who do those things (unless its gay furries hacking the government or hackers leaking classified CIA documents onto a discord minecraft server. Then you gotta applaud them for their creativity)
"gens is trying to cancel Eminem" like bestie I haven't heard about Eminem since 2016~2017. and even then, I was too busy getting myself some pokemon cards to fit in with my 5th grade classmates. pack it up 😭
“The parents that gave you such a wonderful childhood by not being a part of it” is something I’m absolutely going to laugh with my therapist about at my next session 😂

@@user-eu1rh2nm8jI agree but I believe people are doing that because these Gen X’ers are kind of positioning themselves as “spokespersons” so I can see why people see them using the Gen X label and go okay Gen X then
Your characterization is accurate🤷🏾♀️ What can I say? Now back to minding my own business and paying off these college loans, mine and my step child's.
Gen X here - spot on. I saw that trend on TikTok and was like 'wtf?'. Your point about "who to blame" and generations is also on target. Things are the way they are COMPLETELY due to the decisions of the older generations. I would also argue that it's mostly the boomers, but my reasoning would take far more than one random youtube comment to explain. Anyhow, great channel.
“gen x gotta do what gen x is gonna do” “gen x moves in silence” “gen x dont plan we just do” thats EXACTLY the first thing ppl with NO PLANS say. just admit ur bored or depressed like the rest of us.

Thanks! This video was really helpful for a research. Parody is kinda of a perfect way to identify the core values of something, like the most characteristic traits of it.
The video itself says it. It's not the whole generation that's the problem. The problem is how many people like that are around, convinced that they've done everything right and are better than everyone else just because they're gen X. No point in generalizing and saying "Gen X sucks" because it's obviously not true, it comes down to specific groups within the generation, like you say.
I feel bad that my fellow Gen Xers are not embracing the philosophy of our generation. “Meh who gives a fuck”. Seriously people. We are generation apathy. Shut up and let the kids fight with the 30 somethings. We can all gang up make fun of grandpa later.
That one woman starting at 13:48 was genuinely nasty. Imagine you did such a bad job raising your own child that you're totally chill with them never speaking to you again, because you couldn't be bothered to learn how to build a good relationship with the child you *chose* to have. How disgusting. ETA: This got so many replies so quickly lol, but I agree with all of you. I also just realized she was wearing scrubs, so it adds an extra layer of ick for me that a healthcare professional would run around basically confirming to young adults/older teens that their parents don't love them and don't care, when most people who want to go NC have usually come to that decision after a childhood full of abuse. (Coming from someone who had an abusive mother I plan to go LC/NC with upon graduating.) That's so irresponsible as a HEALTHCARE professional, smh.
I was thinking the same thing😐🥲like holy shit I felt bad for whoever is her kid but I’m sure they know they are better off without her if she’s like that.
These kinds of disputes, tend to have less to do with generational differences, & far more to do with narcissistic people seeking supply. Whether it’s gen z - upset about thumbs up emogi’s, or gen x - waxing how tough they are, it’s really just seeking behaviour. Most of us however, are just getting on with life, loving our loved one’s ❤
You have to define "bad parenting" though. My parents never knew where I was when I was outside, and I always was untill the streetlights popped on but would not change a thing about it....
@@user-eu1rh2nm8j just because you don't realise its abuse doesn't mean its not abuse (not saying you actually were abused, i don't know enough about your specific situation to tell you that, but my point still stands)
@@user-eu1rh2nm8jyeah but that is bad parenting tho. You could've been kidnapped and your parents wouldnt even know where to look or what to tell the police. The least they could've done is ask where you're going, or maybe give you an old flip phone or something so that you can call someone in an emergancy. Just because you don't see a reason to have it any other way doesn't make it the right way.
@@Toasterthedoasternah, weirdly I'm siding with the gen X on this, people are way too freaked out about kidnapping, there's like a handful a year and 99% of them or something are divorced dad's "kidnapping" their own kid, not strangers with white vans. Like there's no reason not to give your kid a flip phone, that makes sense these days but in the like 90's when we didn't have them, parents weren't abusive for like... Not just keeping their kids locked indoors all day. The main problem I have with the take is... Yeah, our parents let us do that too, we didn't all have helicopter mum's dude. That's not abuse, not letting your kid inside for a glass of water for some weird reason... I guess isn't abuse either but it is dumb you're bragging about it.
@@chrisvisser-fee2631 It's not just kidnapping which is admittedly an overblown concern but still a concern some parents have. Children *do* go missing every day. There's just so many people and so many times it's not serious that the tragedy of when it goes wrong doesn't hit until you experience it firsthand. Something as simple as losing your footing on a steep hill could leave you crippled and left for dead. It's not even about having an immediate line of communication. Just a general sense in case you didn't come home for much longer than usual or an emergency happens and they need to find *you.* Being proud of *NOBODY KNOWING WHERE YOU ARE* when you were a child means being proud of being neglected. As a kid I regularly wandered off into the woods or went for walks or bike rides down the long rural backroads but my parents still knew where I was going in general even if they didn't have the specifics. I grew up in rural poverty but my family still quickly adopted mobile phones despite maintaining a land line for years after. Even just having 911 access which doesn't require an active personal line; all mobile phones have to be able to connect to the 911 service to legally be sold. "I wouldn't change a thing about it" is either cope, or they didn't have a particularly challenging childhood. I've never met a soul being honest with themselves that says there's nothing they would change about their upbringing.
@Selfie_Contempt Several as in, once to your actual comment then once to you repeating this comment multiple times lol. To answer your answer your question,
I find generational warfare so confusing. The differences are small in reality and it's just a distraction from larger economic and human rights issues.
No one is taking this seriously obviously. Idk why you're taking this seriously. The news isn't talking about this is it? The public 'focus' can and always has multitasked
@octoberwildsmoke9065 no one's fighting anyone lmao what are you on about. It's just people fucking around a bit and content creators who will jump on anything to make money. No one is getting distracted from actual political problems by some tiktok videos of middle aged men goofing around lmaoo
that never happened. Every generation resents the way the older one raised them but blame the ones after them. You were probably too young to understand.
I still don't. Late 1970's so am I an X? My parents were depression kids, not boomers. I have no clue what I am supposed to be called. However, older people always think the younger generations are spoiled or degenerate. Anyone who has studied Latin in school knows that.
So you mean never? When paper was invented the older generation never shutup about how young person technology is ruining the sacred art of chalkboards
@@horsepuncher95 Yeah they said paper and books would make the next generation dumb because they won't bother to memorize anything anymore. Even Socrates complained about the youth having "bad manners and contempt for authority. They contradict their parents and tyrannize their teachers. Children are now tyrants." 😂
The truth about us GenXers is that we’re not coming for anybody. We’re too busy with chiropractic appointments, pensions advice meetings and the increasing need for afternoon naps. My worries centre more around whether there are enough antacids in my home than whatever is causing some folks in my generation to act like petulant toddlers.
Maybe that's the problem? They just can't accept the fact that they are getting older and are now no longer able to live their life the way they did when they were high schoolers. That's the only way for me to make any sense of this ridiculous online war. 🤷🏾♀️ Like having arguments with Teens is making them feel young again? I am also Gen X by the way and I am definitely too old to rise against Gen Z. I'd rather take a nap. 😁
That's def the problem. You can tell all these mostly women spend a lot of time on their looks. They're seeing all the attention going to a 20something at the watering hole despite their nastiest pick me moves, and it does not sit with them.
As someone with a spine that makes weird noises, what you really want is a physical therapist A good one will make you sound like a bag of popcorn if needed, but you'll also get exercises to keep all the bones where they belong

as a millennial, I also have something to say to Gen Z, listen up, (+edit) aluminum foil + salt + boiling water is a fast cleaner for silver, then rinse with water, *edit* please clean Jewelry, it goes on your body and gets dirty from the oils from your body, and earrings - don’t be lazy you can get infections, wash your eyeglasses with dish detergent/dish soap and dry them with a paper towel- those microfiber clots Can make micro scratches on your glasses, *edit* I would recommend You use an Eyeglasses Microfiber Cloth, But Do You Know How To Clean that Cloth? that cloth should be washed, a lot, they pick up dust like velcro, and never use fabric softener on it, and they get dangerously frayed after many washes and start damaging the lenses fast, if you don’t wash that cloth properly, I recommend Soft Paper Towels bc they are easy and disposable, don’t use harsh paper towels obviously! but Come On *Never Wipe DRY Dirty Glasses With A Paper Towel, Only Dry Up Wet Clean Glasses!* wiping your glasses when they weren’t washed only pushes dirt and particles around and you are pushing them into the lenses, wash your glasses with water and dish soap, rinse and dry them, and If *You Have AR Lenses* you nitpickers, You Need to Use glasses safe cloth! because the lenses are covered with film that gets wiped off and scratched off, unfortunately you will eventually need new lenses if you keep wiping them to harsh, here is a professional cleaning and drying them: th-cam.com/video/1Zb8bvlpLtM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=YfBVk_KAvNXENVJV make up removing wash cloths - best to clean them with the simplest bar of soap, better then trowing it in the washing machine, and air dry it on a rack never in a dryer, every clothing and underwear that is made from elastic fabric - is Not good for drying in a dryer, the elastic rubber bands will fray and break from high heat also extra: if you got a greasy stain on cloths, put some dish soap on it before tossing it into the basket, they stain will dry up and be harder to remove so dabbing some dish soap will let it dissolve a bit before you need to do your load of wash, white eraser sponges are magic! I wash every white surface with them, I clean my bathtub, the faset, my sneakers, even my bike, even a $1 white magic sponge will clean your shoe soles, dish soap is magic for any greasy stain, Never Wipe anything clean DRY, pick up anything spilled but then Wash it and Dry it, don’t Mix Chemicals for Cleaning, Are You a Scientist? do you want to make your own Vat for Your Villain Beginning? don’t mix formulas!
Also: If you're having a hard time sleeping when you hit your late 20s / early 30s you might have sleep apnea and you should see a specialist about getting a CPAP machine. Man getting old sucks.
The gremlins comment threw me for such a loop cause like, older Gen Z’s had access to OG Reddit 50/50 and LIVELEAK. Having internet access as a kid, pre 2010, was INSANE
O dude dont even remind me. I still cringe when i remember all those flash sites i discovered at the tender age of 8 cause monitoring your childs internet access was barely a concept back then lmfao
Gen X out here completely misunderstanding the point of "The Death of Slim Shady" despite it literally being the title of the album. It's about him discarding the edgy, misanthropic Slim Shady persona and acknowledging that it came from a place of anger and immaturity.
Was thinking the same thing. The way it's presented sounds more like Shady desperate to be relevant with Eminem dismissing him. Slim doesn't understand either Gen Z or why he's not relevant. But I don't know much about the persona in general, so maybe I'm way off
It's only certain people. Look at fans of a real Gen X band, M.O.D. It's the kind of crap you think is cool when you come out of puberty but really it's just cringe. Some people grow out of it, others suckle on it like it's the last thumb on Earth.
Yeah, I’m not even a fan of Eminem (I personally dislike all his music), but I can respect him acknowledging that Slim Shady was immature It won’t make me like him but still
I’ve gotten death threats on Reddit for saying that I don’t like to cut my sandwich diagonally. I don’t think that there is anything that gen x can say on the internet that could affect me.
"We grew up watching Gremlins." I had to practice twice a year on how to survive if someone decided to walk into my classroom with a gun since I was seven. Next!
Gen Z here, grandma made me watch gremlins with her when I was 5 too…also by age 11 I was watching men burn alive on call of duty so yodas meth family didn’t bother me so much😂
Okay but the lady who encouraged kids to "cut contact and stay gone for more than seven days already" made me so sad. Every kid deserves a loving home that they don't have to cut contact from. I hope that lady never has kids if that's the way she might treat them.
There's a tweet from some guy that went viral about parents like this, flat out saying "we aren't friends" about their kids. It's the people like this who are bitter and will one day complain about being alone wondering why their kids never call or visit.
@SirChubbyBunny and most of the time they aren't even talking about being friends, they're talking about being friendly. Like, yeah you shouldn't tell your kid about all your drama and gossip like you would with a friend your age, but why would you have kids if you are not willing to HUG them?
@@ilikeopossums you think these people intentionally have children? They just wanna fuck and can’t fathom using a condom, or at least pulling out. They resent their children for being born and “spoiling their fun”.
@@wakkaseta8351I guess so? Older gens be like “my dad used to beat me and my siblings as kids to the point where we couldn’t walk” and then turn around and say “but it toughened me up as a kid, I have no issues whatsoever” (but they scream at teens/kids on the internet over imaginary slights). Gen Z seem to be a generation that says “this person isn’t good for me, I’m not going to engage with that person anymore and end the generational trauma.” A lot of us have watched our parents have violent/rough divorces, or have immense amounts of beef among our families over stupid shit from 10+ years ago, but say our generation is too sensitive when a lot of them are still holding grudges from years ago, and we don’t want to have that type of negativity for ourselves. Also, I don’t know too many Gen-Z people who cut off family, it’s usually for a very extreme reason. I have cut off friends before just because I learned later they lied to me, etc and would rather just end that friendship than be lied to.
Dear Gen Z folks: I'm sorry your parent's age demographic is just repeating the same hateful cycles instead of breaking them. It's honestly embarrassing to see Gen Xers pulling the same nonsense with you that Boomers were trying with us Millennials.
@@PataPtichouEh, sort of. I mean, the Boomers have run rough-shod over a lot of us. And every generation has someone doing the crap stuff and the rest of us are just trying not to sink in the bog. But I guess no one drop of water is to blame for the flood. I just wish people my freaking age didn’t feel the need to be so predictable and act like every stupid generation before them, trying to suggest they’re great and the younger generations are crap. We’re kinda awful, first off. And second, how many generations do wr have to watch doing the same thing before someone says, “Oh, right, the world changes and newer generations have a different set of circumstances,” and quit comparing apples to oranges? But similar things could be said about younger generations. Every generation goes through a phase of blaming the older ones for all their problems, and every generation makes some attempt to do things another way with partial success, and every generation looks at the next one and says, “They don’t appreciate all we’ve done and all we went through!” while the new generation is looking back and saying, “You caused all these problems.” Lather, rinse, repeat.
Hearing the blonde woman w the bob talk about gen x being the toughest generation as if my great grandparents didn’t grow up throughout the great depression and turned out to be great people is hilarious

thanks for letting us gen z folks know! definitely appreciate it!
P.S. - shave a bar of soap and add it to a blender with a box of borax and a box of washing soda. When it’s blended, store it in an air tight container and revel in _80 loads_ of laundry detergent.

It’s the fact that gen X is gen Z’s parents. Any problems they have with us are a direct result of how they raised us
Literally, my mom raised me to be kind. Almost every day she said “idc who they are, you never know what someone’s going thru, be kind” then I grew up “liberal” and she has the audacity to be bitter abt it. You raised me girl??? You voted for Obama???
Exactly, don't blame us for what you did.
I honestly think this is just parents that raised their kids poorly now taking out their frustration on an entire generation. Like the fact that they’re upset about something and their reaction is to imply violence is very telling.
Exactly 😂
considering boomers also raised millenials who they hate but ultimately have a lot in common with, i feel like this is a pattern. whether that's bc they see too much of themselves in the younger generation which makes criricizing them easier and more personal, or this is just redirected family drama, is hard to say
"we used to watch gremlins at 5 years old" ma'am, gremlins is almost more of a comedy than a horror movie.
Yeah like, I had pretty protective parents and I was allowed to watch Gremlins as a kid. That movie is definitely aimed at younger audiences than most horror lol
Lol. Right. I was like, Gremlins would not be my first flex. I watched Child's Play and Chainsaw Massacre at five. Why would you pull out Gremlins?
Gremlins is not horror that was one of the most funniest movies I watched especially the party scene.
It's not a real horror film correct.
Millennials and Zoomers grew up with actual snuff films on LiveLeak anyway. I've seen enough gore of actual dead bodies online that it didn't bother me in medicine besides the smell. 🤷♀️
One could argue Gremlins 2 has a trans character. So it definitely is a horror movie for republicans
As a millennial librarian I do have some advice for gen z.
Please, if you ever want to save something for the future-like say you’re packing up for college and putting some childhood papers/cards/retro photos in boxes-do not use a rubber band to keep it together! I’m not sure how relevant this is anymore, but give it a decade and that rubber band essentially turns into dried pasta.
Also, a lot of grandma’s recipes were probably cut from the back of a cereal box or a soup can (there’s some really fascinating research on this!). So if you aren’t talking anymore or you never got the chance to ask, a quick google search might help you find that nostalgic taste you’re craving.
thank you 😊
Ooo thank you! Really appreciate the advice!☺️
not even a decade. two years and that rubber band WILL snap lol.
this is the shit I wanna be hearing, I have a coconut cream pie recipe to find

As a millennial I also have something to tell Gen Z.
When ironing something made of cotton, linen, or wool, mist it with water first so that it's damp. For best results, let it cool/dry on the ironing board before picking it up. Laying an unvarnished piece of wood (like a clean cutting board) on top of it helps speed up the cooling/drying process.
Also a Millennial; to Gen Xers, Adding white vinegar to your laundry loads is a good substitute for fabric softener. The vinegar scent goes away once the clothes are dry.
Thank you for this ❤
I also have some advice. Don't buy clothes that you need to follow special advice for, it will save you time and money. And bleach is only for items that are completely white, like socks, underwear, and some white towels and washcloths. Don't make the mistake my sister made who thought that bleach was always for clean towels and bleached her black towels.
Thanks, I'll remember that ^-^
This is valuable information. Thank you. I truly suck at ironing and my close are always wrinkly and I feel bad about it 😂

The defunding of education, the rise in abusive adult content, and the fact that both parents have to work in order to sustain a family all lead up to this. It is incredibly hard to raise kids these days.
Parents need more time to properly parent their children. We don't always get that these days.
My mom is gen x and says to me all the time that she wishes i could've experienced the fun stuff she used to do outside but could not bring herself to trust the world enough to let us run wild 💀
Its almost like the generation before the boomers had some wonderous ways of making the neighborhoods safe that have been criminalized because the older generations that are still living viewed them as too brutal, and uncivilized.
Its almost like you really shouldn't have let yourselves become prisoners within your own country.

The fact gen x is bragging about not being cared for as a child is confusing and concerning. Gen z… are literally their children
With that one lady rambling about furniture, you can see it's always projecting the subjective onto the objective.
Nah 😂mine are millennials😂 also thanks for noticing us😅
No they are not ours. Se sre responsible for the millenials.
I am an elder millennial with a gen x sister. That whole notion is bullshit. If anything, we were one of the most looked after generations because the whole neighborhood was looking after everybody's kids. Not in a weird way. Not once did I ever see anybody drink from a hose. We would go to our neighbors that we knew, and they would give us cookies and something to drink like Kool-Aid.
Stating facts isn't bragging.
"We committed crimes 😈" girl gen z kids are running around with guns you shop lifted candy.
Gen Z kids are running around their high schools with vapes and cigarettes AND guns. Yeah, pretty sure times have changed a LOT. Coming from a gen z kiddo, I laugh at what gen x is saying. No one is "cancelling" Eminem, or whatever. I've met so many people in gen z who LOVE Eminem.
@@SairePickens ABOUT THAT, i saw a kid who looked like, nine years old, vaping while walking WITH HIS PARENTS. the problems DEFINITELY come from how parents raised them.
@@flowrling jesus christ. our future is doomed. That's so bad!! That kid needs new parents
As a Gen Zer with a Gen Xer mom, she keeps talking about how we’re so soft and can’t take anything and how her mother raised her so differently. I asked her “why didn’t you raise us like your mother did then?” And suddenly she was at a loss for words
That’s a really good comeback
As a GenXer with "Silent generation" parents? This is just "parent brain". They told us the same thing and we complained about it just like you are. You will tell your kids the same thing too unless you make the conscious effort to remember this. That is also part of "parent brain" - you forget how often your parents made things easy for you. Or they forget how rebellious they were as kids. It's like amnesia or something. But I also believe that every generation is "softer" than previous generations because of technology. Technology isn't just a smart phone, it's also the person that first used a controlled fire to cook or raised a farm animal rather than just hunting constantly. I'm sure other strengths come out though like focusing on mental wellness.
@@melissas4874 honestly makes sense what you said, and I don’t have any gripes with how my mom raised me (or with my mom at all) I just thought this was funny because it’s odd to complain that a child that you raised wasn’t raised properly. But oh well there’s worse things I guess. At least I have a great relationship with my mom
I think its sad because you know damn well when she was expecting you she told herself she was gonna do right by you she was gonna do everything her mom didn't let her do yadda yadda we hear it all the time and then now that we've reached this point I don't know she's becoming brainwashed by the white noise bullshit other people in her generation love spewing out?? It makes me really sad. My mom tells me (she was .. oof is haha a boomer 1956, and I guess I'm considered a millennial 1993) when she was growing up children were expected to be seen and not heard.
My mom sometimes throws the "your generation it's filled with snowflakes" from time to time and... I have to remind her... she raised me
as a daughter (gen z) of a millennial mom that used to beat my ass because of my undiagnosed autism symptoms, beating doesn’t make you tough, it teaches you to cry in your pillow instead of speaking up and seeking help.
Dont beat kids guys
Sure. When you're autistic. Sorry you got your ass beat.
either that or it makes you a rageful, angry person who easily resorts to violence. we actually know exactly what hitting your kids does, and it pretty much universally results in angrier, sadder, more anxious, less socially conscious people.
Is also can teache you to bottle up all your emotions until they explode on you.
I'm so sorry, I had hoped that my generation is going to try to do better, that we all collectively wanted to do better, to not repeat our parent's mistakes. Violence against your kid is never ok - it's a sign of weakness, of inability to communicate your feelings. Is your mom in therapy, are you? Is she putting any effort to do better? Regarding abuse, there's a book that is centered around partner abuse but I think it describes motivation of abusive behaviour pretty well in other dynamics and I think it's of incredible value for any young person - especially neuro divergent folks - to take time to read it. It's available online for free - Lundy Barcroft, the title is "Why does he do that". I think understanding the reasons why people resort to abuse and violence is,in way, incredibly freeing for victims as it sort of, vindicates the fact that it's *not your fault*.
Please take care and stay strong ❤

@@OGFluffduck fr we should not have had access to that stuff (at least 99% of us had the sense to not stab anyone over it)
Funny thing about movies is they still exist after the year they came out. I too watched 80s movies growing up in addition to the scary stuff on the Internet. It's so weird people forget about that, like when people talk about how their generation has the best music, I listened to the music my great grandmas mom listened to yesterday. You can find recordings of ancient gramophones on TH-cam.
I'm jealous the generations to come will inherit our best media and have access to the media that doesn't exist for us yet. Good media survives and is seen by the later generations too

What confuses me about Gen X's obsession over Eminem is that he has been criticized since the beginning of his career. He was never universally loved. He's not Dolly Parton.
Right?!? Like, they were alive during the height of his career/controversies but these bizarre people are pretending like this is new
And he has been cringy his entire career. I was a child when “Without Me” came out… I thought it was stupid and tacky then too. His slim shady persona has always been the least interesting part of his career.

@@GrimMelvin Born in 1989. I did the war thing. Not a great time, if I'm being honest. I don't think it made me tougher.

Ongoing therapy is helping with that kind of decision-making, and I'm way better off just as a human being now that I'm in my mid-30s and have left the lifestyle behind, but on the whole I think I probably would've been better off not...Y'know.

Claiming to be the toughest generation while there are survivors of the II World War still alive sounds arrogant, not gonna lie
That and also the fact that every generation should have it easier than the last, isn’t that like, the goal?
War is hell. You dont come back from war tougher. You come back forever traumatized and burdened with the guilt of murdering strangers for some cause above your pay grade which always has something to do with disputes between the ruling elites of this or that nation state and nothing to do with the actual people of those nations though they are often the victims or those duped into fighting and dying in the wars while the fat cats who declare them never for one second risk their lives.
The victors of any war gain the privilege of writing the history as part of the spoils of war. This means that any mainstream version of history you read is going to present them, the victors, as the heroes and defenders of righteousness and justice who could never do wrong. And of course whoever lost said wars will in turn be portrayed as the worst monsters who ever lived. Even though both sides of any war commit atrocities daily as that is literally what war consists of, the victors get to pretend that what they did was noble and righteous while what their enemies did was a crime against humanity.
And since this is America we are talking about where victimhood is worn like a status symbol veterans of war are often spoken of as if they were innocent victims of some big bad foreign military juggernaut, as you said "survivors". But in reality American forces entered the war later than any of the other Allies and so had the advantage of being fresher and stronger than all those who had already been fighting for some time and it was actually the U.S. who was the foreign military juggernaut invading Europe and carpet bombing ancient German cities from the relative safety of the air.
Not that I have any sympathy for the Third Reich or anything, I have no sympathy for any government of any nation since I am an Anarchist. I do however sympathize with the average citizens, the non-combatants of every nation. They do not participate in the wars and have as much influence over who wields power as we do in our own country, which is none.

I saw a creator from Gen X who made a great point. Gen X is going through their mid life crisis online. They don’t have the money to buy cars and holiday houses like the boomers. All they have is social media and they’re watching things get more and more confusing the older they get
Ooofffff
For sure.
Gen X here, it does get more and more confusing, but if you are willing to pay attention, it doesn't have to be overwhelming. So many of us see Kids These Days doing something and immediately criticize it. What we should be doing is learning from it. For example, a generation that grew up communicating by text probably knows the best ways of doing it. A text message isn't the same as a five page paper on Hamlet, and grammar rules for one wouldn't work well for the other. Be willing to let go of your own preconceptions and learn from the masters. It's not hard, and honestly? It's fun
@@RickLeMon i appreciate your attitude so much 😭💖
Yeah that's kinda sad, we will all be there someday, and it's true, gen x had it pretty bad, all the boomer "work hard" nonsense, then the raise of retirement age, and now those same gen xers have to work alongside the class conscious young generations who know that stuff doesn't pay off, but the gen x ers can't get it out of their blood to operate the old ways.
I get it, that how I almost waa, but I wrestled free of that mindset, and keep it on hold for contributing to mutual aid and volunteering, never at a job tho.
I am gen z raised by older boomers in backward-ass small town desert 11 kids graduating 8th grade kinda small - so when I escaped to a city I caught up pretty fast but I was a self-righteous little mini- boomer myself until I got that internet connection in the city.

As a member of Gen Y (as in 'why the heck I am even here and how does this whole life stuff even work'?) I fear so much for the younger gens, honestly. I was lucky enough to not have apathetic parents, so I have been raised enthusiastic and militant, but fast-forward a few decades and I'm forced to realize just how disillusioned, tired and cynical I have turned out. Recent years have upended a lot of my convictions and things I personally took for granted, living through the p*ndemic as a hypochondriac somewhat hurt my ability to seek out and trust others, and in doing so to be in contact with outside perspectives and differing opinions, and wanting to keep up with the news and politics often means that I see the world as little more than a series of crises in waiting I feel pretty powerless to act on.
And by many accounts, Gen Z has it even worse that we did; so seeing so many young people 1) grow up in such an unstable climate, without the security and certainties we had, and 2) still manage to harbor hope, have convictions, take action, and in some cases become symbols and role models for others always fills me with awe. Now that I'm firmly an adult, I do feel like I failed those kids; sure, a lot of the parameters and structures that inhibit them were already implanted when our generation was their age, but I keep thinking we could have done more or better - that I personally should have done more, especially in recent years, and that my own inaction is part of the problem.
It's kind of an old chestnut to say that kids (and young adults) are the world's hope, but I do feel that way. Gen Z has a lot to deal with and yet so many of them are thriving- and boy are we in dire need of that kind of spirit right now. Hearing and seeing some younger activists also got me thinking about becoming more involved in political and social causes again, apathy be damned, and I thank them for that. I hope I never become the type of entitled older person to blame my own shortcomings on later gens or demand respect simply for being born earlier.
I love Gen Z so much, they're our only hope.
“This man was around before you were here” i think that’s the concept of being older than someone

@@user-eu1rh2nm8jI agree but I believe people are doing that because these Gen X’ers are kind of positioning themselves as “spokespersons” so I can see why people see them using the Gen X label and go okay Gen X then
Your characterization is accurate🤷🏾♀️ What can I say? Now back to minding my own business and paying off these college loans, mine and my step child's.
When were they like that? I just remember them as boomer lite
Gen X here - spot on. I saw that trend on TikTok and was like 'wtf?'. Your point about "who to blame" and generations is also on target. Things are the way they are COMPLETELY due to the decisions of the older generations. I would also argue that it's mostly the boomers, but my reasoning would take far more than one random youtube comment to explain.
Anyhow, great channel.
We hit the point where the internet is old enough for an entire generation to collectively experience and broadcast their midlife crisis together.
That's when you get the popcorn and watch from the sideline
It's so beautiful seeing nature taking its course.

Parody is kinda of a perfect way to identify the core values of something, like the most characteristic traits of it.
They were going for "You poked the bear" but they're giving "you woke up an ornery grandpa from his afternoon nap"
That’s the best way to describe it lmao

This is too good
The bear’s probably just gonna growl a bit before going back to sleep.
that threat made me internally laugh so much. he failed terribly at trying to look as this intimidating general of their so-called army.
This isn’t Gen X, this is just online Gen X. My folks are Gen X and they would find this behavior extremely immature and unnecessary
My parents are both the “Kids these days are soft” type like FFB talks about in this video, and they’d find this shit silly and stupid.
This is Gen X having fun. I've seen cringyer Gen z videos dictating to me what pronouns to use to address them.
I'm almost gen X and I see many Xers turn down this route over the years, but yeah can't generalize, it's not all of them.
The video itself says it. It's not the whole generation that's the problem. The problem is how many people like that are around, convinced that they've done everything right and are better than everyone else just because they're gen X. No point in generalizing and saying "Gen X sucks" because it's obviously not true, it comes down to specific groups within the generation, like you say.
I feel bad that my fellow Gen Xers are not embracing the philosophy of our generation. “Meh who gives a fuck”.
Seriously people. We are generation apathy. Shut up and let the kids fight with the 30 somethings. We can all gang up make fun of grandpa later.
That one woman starting at 13:48 was genuinely nasty. Imagine you did such a bad job raising your own child that you're totally chill with them never speaking to you again, because you couldn't be bothered to learn how to build a good relationship with the child you *chose* to have. How disgusting.
ETA: This got so many replies so quickly lol, but I agree with all of you. I also just realized she was wearing scrubs, so it adds an extra layer of ick for me that a healthcare professional would run around basically confirming to young adults/older teens that their parents don't love them and don't care, when most people who want to go NC have usually come to that decision after a childhood full of abuse. (Coming from someone who had an abusive mother I plan to go LC/NC with upon graduating.) That's so irresponsible as a HEALTHCARE professional, smh.
And the way she blames the child aswell is crazy.
I’ve seen a lot of estranged parents and next to none of them will ever admit their own behavior might have something to do with their situation.
She’s gonna regret her little tantrum.
I was thinking the same thing😐🥲like holy shit I felt bad for whoever is her kid but I’m sure they know they are better off without her if she’s like that.
@Peloponnesia666True
These kinds of disputes, tend to have less to do with generational differences, & far more to do with narcissistic people seeking supply. Whether it’s gen z - upset about thumbs up emogi’s, or gen x - waxing how tough they are, it’s really just seeking behaviour. Most of us however, are just getting on with life, loving our loved one’s ❤
"Bad parenting is not something to celebrate. Any good traits you develop as a person are despite your abuse, not because of it." That's profound.
You have to define "bad parenting" though. My parents never knew where I was when I was outside, and I always was untill the streetlights popped on but would not change a thing about it....
@@user-eu1rh2nm8j just because you don't realise its abuse doesn't mean its not abuse (not saying you actually were abused, i don't know enough about your specific situation to tell you that, but my point still stands)
@@user-eu1rh2nm8jyeah but that is bad parenting tho. You could've been kidnapped and your parents wouldnt even know where to look or what to tell the police.
The least they could've done is ask where you're going, or maybe give you an old flip phone or something so that you can call someone in an emergancy. Just because you don't see a reason to have it any other way doesn't make it the right way.
@@Toasterthedoasternah, weirdly I'm siding with the gen X on this, people are way too freaked out about kidnapping, there's like a handful a year and 99% of them or something are divorced dad's "kidnapping" their own kid, not strangers with white vans.
Like there's no reason not to give your kid a flip phone, that makes sense these days but in the like 90's when we didn't have them, parents weren't abusive for like... Not just keeping their kids locked indoors all day.
The main problem I have with the take is... Yeah, our parents let us do that too, we didn't all have helicopter mum's dude. That's not abuse, not letting your kid inside for a glass of water for some weird reason... I guess isn't abuse either but it is dumb you're bragging about it.
@@chrisvisser-fee2631 It's not just kidnapping which is admittedly an overblown concern but still a concern some parents have. Children *do* go missing every day. There's just so many people and so many times it's not serious that the tragedy of when it goes wrong doesn't hit until you experience it firsthand. Something as simple as losing your footing on a steep hill could leave you crippled and left for dead. It's not even about having an immediate line of communication. Just a general sense in case you didn't come home for much longer than usual or an emergency happens and they need to find *you.* Being proud of *NOBODY KNOWING WHERE YOU ARE* when you were a child means being proud of being neglected. As a kid I regularly wandered off into the woods or went for walks or bike rides down the long rural backroads but my parents still knew where I was going in general even if they didn't have the specifics. I grew up in rural poverty but my family still quickly adopted mobile phones despite maintaining a land line for years after. Even just having 911 access which doesn't require an active personal line; all mobile phones have to be able to connect to the 911 service to legally be sold.
"I wouldn't change a thing about it" is either cope, or they didn't have a particularly challenging childhood. I've never met a soul being honest with themselves that says there's nothing they would change about their upbringing.
My mom is gen x. I'm an older gen z and she keeps sending me these videos! Like you know how I was raised. YOU RAISED ME!

The best generation is the one that doesn’t start pointless beef with the other generations
I remember the good times when no one knew which "generation" they were born into and no one felt the need to bitch about who is the worst.
that never happened. Every generation resents the way the older one raised them but blame the ones after them. You were probably too young to understand.
No, for real, I miss the simple times 😅😅
I still don't. Late 1970's so am I an X? My parents were depression kids, not boomers. I have no clue what I am supposed to be called.
However, older people always think the younger generations are spoiled or degenerate. Anyone who has studied Latin in school knows that.
So you mean never? When paper was invented the older generation never shutup about how young person technology is ruining the sacred art of chalkboards
@@horsepuncher95 Yeah they said paper and books would make the next generation dumb because they won't bother to memorize anything anymore.
Even Socrates complained about the youth having "bad manners and contempt for authority. They contradict their parents and tyrannize their teachers. Children are now tyrants." 😂
The truth about us GenXers is that we’re not coming for anybody. We’re too busy with chiropractic appointments, pensions advice meetings and the increasing need for afternoon naps. My worries centre more around whether there are enough antacids in my home than whatever is causing some folks in my generation to act like petulant toddlers.
Aye, I've reached that point where my skeleton got really noisy. We're not rising, it's too much hassle
Maybe that's the problem? They just can't accept the fact that they are getting older and are now no longer able to live their life the way they did when they were high schoolers. That's the only way for me to make any sense of this ridiculous online war. 🤷🏾♀️
Like having arguments with Teens is making them feel young again?
I am also Gen X by the way and I am definitely too old to rise against Gen Z. I'd rather take a nap. 😁
That's def the problem. You can tell all these mostly women spend a lot of time on their looks. They're seeing all the attention going to a 20something at the watering hole despite their nastiest pick me moves, and it does not sit with them.
My osteoarthritis and scoliosis, combined with a healing rotator cuff kinda put my Gen X Rise up on hold... I'll let ya know when my body's ready lol

Thank you sir
I love hearing your accent through your typing 😭
as a millennial, I also have something to say to Gen Z,
listen up, (+edit)
aluminum foil + salt + boiling water is a fast cleaner for silver, then rinse with water,
*edit* please clean Jewelry, it goes on your body and gets dirty from the oils from your body, and earrings - don’t be lazy you can get infections,
wash your eyeglasses with dish detergent/dish soap and dry them with a paper towel- those microfiber clots Can make micro scratches on your glasses,
*edit* I would recommend You use an Eyeglasses Microfiber Cloth, But Do You Know How To Clean that Cloth?
that cloth should be washed, a lot, they pick up dust like velcro, and never use fabric softener on it, and they get dangerously frayed after many washes and start damaging the lenses fast, if you don’t wash that cloth properly,
I recommend Soft Paper Towels bc they are easy and disposable, don’t use harsh paper towels obviously!
but Come On *Never Wipe DRY Dirty Glasses With A Paper Towel, Only Dry Up Wet Clean Glasses!*
wiping your glasses when they weren’t washed only pushes dirt and particles around and you are pushing them into the lenses,
wash your glasses with water and dish soap, rinse and dry them,
and If *You Have AR Lenses* you nitpickers, You Need to Use glasses safe cloth! because the lenses are covered with film that gets wiped off and scratched off, unfortunately you will eventually need new lenses if you keep wiping them to harsh,
here is a professional cleaning and drying them:
th-cam.com/video/1Zb8bvlpLtM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=YfBVk_KAvNXENVJV
make up removing wash cloths - best to clean them with the simplest bar of soap, better then trowing it in the washing machine, and air dry it on a rack never in a dryer,
every clothing and underwear that is made from elastic fabric - is Not good for drying in a dryer, the elastic rubber bands will fray and break from high heat
also extra:
if you got a greasy stain on cloths, put some dish soap on it before tossing it into the basket, they stain will dry up and be harder to remove so dabbing some dish soap will let it dissolve a bit before you need to do your load of wash,
white eraser sponges are magic! I wash every white surface with them, I clean my bathtub, the faset, my sneakers, even my bike, even a $1 white magic sponge will clean your shoe soles,
dish soap is magic for any greasy stain,
Never Wipe anything clean DRY, pick up anything spilled but then Wash it and Dry it,
don’t Mix Chemicals for Cleaning, Are You a Scientist? do you want to make your own Vat for Your Villain Beginning? don’t mix formulas!
Oh shit fr? Dishwasher doesnt leave spots on lenses like normal water?
TIL about the microfiber cloth thing
Also: If you're having a hard time sleeping when you hit your late 20s / early 30s you might have sleep apnea and you should see a specialist about getting a CPAP machine. Man getting old sucks.

The gremlins comment threw me for such a loop cause like, older Gen Z’s had access to OG Reddit 50/50 and LIVELEAK. Having internet access as a kid, pre 2010, was INSANE
THANK YOU OMG I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO SAY THIS I WAS EXPOSED TO WAYYYY TOO MUCH AS A KID😂😂
O dude dont even remind me. I still cringe when i remember all those flash sites i discovered at the tender age of 8 cause monitoring your childs internet access was barely a concept back then lmfao
the other day my friend showed me a video of a guys head being ch0pp3d off with pinkie pie and cute core stuff around it (i’m 13)
OG reddit and LiveLeak predated Gen Z. Most of Gen Z were toddlers then wtf are you talking about?
The internet ruined my innocent childhood that I could've had if my parents gave me restrictions-
Gen X out here completely misunderstanding the point of "The Death of Slim Shady" despite it literally being the title of the album. It's about him discarding the edgy, misanthropic Slim Shady persona and acknowledging that it came from a place of anger and immaturity.
This!! Like I’m gen z and I love Eminem. These older people aren’t understanding the point of this new album.
Was thinking the same thing. The way it's presented sounds more like Shady desperate to be relevant with Eminem dismissing him. Slim doesn't understand either Gen Z or why he's not relevant.
But I don't know much about the persona in general, so maybe I'm way off
It's only certain people. Look at fans of a real Gen X band, M.O.D. It's the kind of crap you think is cool when you come out of puberty but really it's just cringe. Some people grow out of it, others suckle on it like it's the last thumb on Earth.
Yeah, I’m not even a fan of Eminem (I personally dislike all his music), but I can respect him acknowledging that Slim Shady was immature
It won’t make me like him but still
Yeah, we kinda got that. Pretty obvious, really.
I’ve gotten death threats on Reddit for saying that I don’t like to cut my sandwich diagonally. I don’t think that there is anything that gen x can say on the internet that could affect me.

All those "soft lockdown" drills you never understood what they were for until you hit middle/high school. Good times. Goooodtimes.
Okay but the lady who encouraged kids to "cut contact and stay gone for more than seven days already" made me so sad. Every kid deserves a loving home that they don't have to cut contact from. I hope that lady never has kids if that's the way she might treat them.
There's a tweet from some guy that went viral about parents like this, flat out saying "we aren't friends" about their kids. It's the people like this who are bitter and will one day complain about being alone wondering why their kids never call or visit.
@SirChubbyBunny and most of the time they aren't even talking about being friends, they're talking about being friendly. Like, yeah you shouldn't tell your kid about all your drama and gossip like you would with a friend your age, but why would you have kids if you are not willing to HUG them?
But aren't Gen Z the ones who talked the most about cutting "toxic" people out of your life over the slightest things?
@@ilikeopossums you think these people intentionally have children? They just wanna fuck and can’t fathom using a condom, or at least pulling out. They resent their children for being born and “spoiling their fun”.
@@wakkaseta8351I guess so? Older gens be like “my dad used to beat me and my siblings as kids to the point where we couldn’t walk” and then turn around and say “but it toughened me up as a kid, I have no issues whatsoever” (but they scream at teens/kids on the internet over imaginary slights). Gen Z seem to be a generation that says “this person isn’t good for me, I’m not going to engage with that person anymore and end the generational trauma.” A lot of us have watched our parents have violent/rough divorces, or have immense amounts of beef among our families over stupid shit from 10+ years ago, but say our generation is too sensitive when a lot of them are still holding grudges from years ago, and we don’t want to have that type of negativity for ourselves. Also, I don’t know too many Gen-Z people who cut off family, it’s usually for a very extreme reason. I have cut off friends before just because I learned later they lied to me, etc and would rather just end that friendship than be lied to.

I just wish people my freaking age didn’t feel the need to be so predictable and act like every stupid generation before them, trying to suggest they’re great and the younger generations are crap.

And second, how many generations do wr have to watch doing the same thing before someone says, “Oh, right, the world changes and newer generations have a different set of circumstances,” and quit comparing apples to oranges? But similar things could be said about younger generations.
Every generation goes through a phase of blaming the older ones for all their problems, and every generation makes some attempt to do things another way with partial success, and every generation looks at the next one and says, “They don’t appreciate all we’ve done and all we went through!” while the new generation is looking back and saying, “You caused all these problems.” Lather, rinse, repeat.
