American millennials' mental and physical health is on the decline — and they're on track to die faster than Gen X

You know, I honestly wish my boomer family members would do this. They are fucking so wrapped up in Facebook drama, it's sad as fuck. It's like high school 2 for them whereas I avoid social media like the plague.

Spoiler alert: I'm still highly depressed, stressed, and work hard on zero energy. I agree that some people focus on negativity but there are real problems out there right now too for the youth, education first and foremost being the bigges, only secondary to the foods they eat. That's not the internet's fault.

Tldr: Ignoring Facebook doesnt make the food I buy any more nourishing nor job opportunities more plentiful nor my paycheck any less pathetic.
Facebook is great for having fun and keeping in touch with others, but it's a crock of shit half the time.

I know guys who post great pics, AND EVEN post nice pics with the wife trying to convince everything is fine.............. but have been separated the last two years in bitching back and forth INCLUDING bringing drama to work where they spend work time talking to lawyers in their office etc..., alimony and they share custody with kids.

I think it's actually harmful to society as a whole. The whole Instagram culture of only showing the best parts of your life and hiding the rest also effects those who see it. They ask themselves "why isnt my life this perfect?" when, if they were using logic, theyd realize no ones life is like that. You're looking at a commercial sizzle reel of a life, not the uncut footage behind the scenes.

Yet again, not just a millenial problem. You old fucks are just as bad at this internet shit if not worse, using facebook messenger like its aim.

I swear, if I didnt know her personally, I'd swear my mom was a spambot. Thank god I deleted that shit years back but before I did, I could already see most of the older people on my list, like 50s to 70s, were WAYYYYYY more into facebook than me.

Keep saying it's just a millenial thing tho, guys. Denial will totally keep the truth away.

I literally smoke everyday, from morning to night. Whenever I'm not at work basically. Still stressed out beyond comprehension.

This IS me calm, believe it or not.

Or maybe it just cheeses me off being told to go die by a bunch of people I don't even know and I wanted to get in on the fun.

How is that serving you, to be so stressed out? It’s hard to go forward in life and have success when you’re not in a good place mentally. Learn to embrace and relish in discomfort, even pain. Wes Watson can help.

zoomers are 95+
If we are going by shitposting/mongolian boards it is anybody under 30. ALSO on the topic of "Millennials" their age range from 20-35, or born between 1980 and the end of 1994.

Lol, nahhh man, I'm cool on the left and right hand paths. I try to walk the middle path. You do not embrace or enjoy anything, you just exist through it. Otherwise, you're tempted with extremism I find.

That said, you make it seem like people have a choice behind their own brain chemistry. Yes, there are many "tricks of the trade" so to speak, but at a point, sometimes you're only capable of what your capable of. So no, I'm not choosing to be stressed. I try and distract myself constantly but theres only so far you can go, only so many drugs you can take, only so many extra hours you can take or shows/tv I can watch or people I can fuck before the real world seeps back in.

Because that's what reality is.

For what it's worth, had I been born maybe ten years earlier, I would have been a prime candidate for massive doses of xanax. Now, doctors just think I'm drug seeking, leaving the medicating to me, I, and myself.

*shrugs*

A lot of things I have no control over. My perspective doesnt change the world i live in.

You have an overarching negative mindset. I’ve been there. It sucks. Programming myself is what got me out of it. I sincerely wish the best for you bro.

I appreciate the sincerity, truly. I try to maintain a huge amount of control over even the most minute of aspects of my day, probably to an insane degree compared to most (as in it would most likely drive other people crazy), just in efforts to stay positive about life in general, let alone the entire fucking planet if I'm being honest but yeah, shit gets away from everyone sometimes I suppose.

Anyways
*slaps hands together*
Good Talk!

Who told you to go die?

I'm with you guys @ROMhack and @triplestation. I'm currently lucky enough to be in a family-run position that's working out decently, but before that (and possibly after, nothing lasts forever...) was a mess of lucking into jobs that looked good on the surface but ended up being depressing shit.

Though part of that is almost certainly my own dumb fault for picking video games tech for higher education instead of compsci 🤦


So TL;DR start dealing drugs.

...Fuck it, who wants a 10-bag for the low low price of £20? Introductory special offer.
Not necessarily drugs. But if that's what might jumpstart next steps, thinking outside normal programming helps.
 
Yes

Where my quotes at, boy?
Finally, some great news.
This guy is happy millenials are dying sooner rather than later.
Knowing every Trump tweet brings a millennial closer to death, makes me enjoy them that much more.
Same guy.
Good. Everyone wins.
...speaks for itself.
I'm doing my part
Not sure, but pretty sure this is also a celebration of millenials dying early. Maybe just a millenial that lives as unhealthy as myself though....MOVING ON!
lol @ everyone celebrating their own deaths. Everyone born from 81 to 96 is a millennial.

I'm over here living the 1950's dream life; my kids are gonna be running the fuckin show next decade. All the kids with single moms who give them shamrock shake colored undercuts don't have a chance!


:lollipop_horns:
Sorry I've got a single mom? Guess I get to die!
NEXT!
What can do we to speed up the process?
NEXT!
Okay Boome-

Millenial checking in. diet and nutrition is numero uno...I really really don't trust older people for some reason especially people with money Ive also become enamored with smaller people I'm kinda obsessed with them especially if I were to build a company i'd try to be like willy fucking wonka or santa claus and just hire small people they're so fucking low maintenance unlike 200 fucking pound gorillas that need to eat all the time and gas out walking for 2 seconds and complain like a motherfuk*er i'm sick of large people. i mean there are times when u need some muscle around, but u mostly need to surround urself with hobbit like people that can go and move all day long like the energizer bunny without breaking a sweat. they can eat less, they can sleep less they can devote more energy to mental tasks. Its not a coincidence that some of the most successful people are hobbits:

mark zuckerberg 5'7"

jeff bezos 5'7"

sergey brin 5'8"

martin scorsese 5'4"

George Lucas 5'6"

steven speilberg 5'8"

Tom Cruise 5'7"

Misgender my fucking wife one more fucking time and see what happens.


All of them are fucking nerds except com truise. Not like they were out getting laid or anything.

oh yeah i forgot about that manlets would also get less attention for from females and thus less distracted to do their work and get their sh!t done...short girls can still get a lot of attention so they don't have that same advantage i think

Ok so you got a single mom and you’re soft as butter on a midsummer day but do you have a shamrock shake colored undercut?

Jokes mudda fucka, we got em.

Hey, honestly, completely aside from the topic at hand of millenials, no disrespect meant. I apologize fully for the misconception. I call every gender guys and dudes and it was an honest mistake. I will watch what gender terms I use around you and your wife in the future. Since you have let me know, i will try my hardest to respect your wishes in the future as far as this goes.

I'm sorry burp.
I'm sorry Arcadia.
*UNPAUSE*

Now, on with the clown show, shall we?

I dont even know what an undercut is...so maybe?

I mean...ok, so are you saying it's ok for me to say all boomers should die in a fire now?

Am I done trying to prove to you that idiots in this thread wished death upon an entire generation?

Fucking. Yay.
Back on track, butterboy.

Edit: can I be all faux outrage too, be like "talk about my moms relationship status one more time and SEE what happens." like everyone else? Since I proved my point?

Tyler, I’m a millennial too. I mentioned that earlier.

To elaborate, no, I don’t want you to die. I’m trying not to laugh writing that, because it sounds so silly.

It’s dark humor, and it’s how I defuse when clownworld, and yes, my own generation, is really pissing me off. You would likely find the same for the rest of the thread.

Sit back, have a laugh, roll with the punches, stab back, and have a good time. Are we good?

I was never not good, I promise you. I know none of you would put your money where your mouth is. I also share your sentiment with my generation but try not to generalize, I was just answering matt404's request to post quotes of people wishing death upon me/millenials.

Tldr: we are good.

Who even has an undercut over a fade these days?
 
Spoiler alert: every person making a joke about millennials in this thread is a millennial.

Hey, I cant really remember very well because I'm pretty sure I posted during my work shift, I'm sort of drunk right now, AND im too lazy to comb my post history but, when I began down this gutter trash of a post session, I BELIEVE I was trying to be serious about how food was slightly to blame.

I blame Matt for lowering me to this over the course of the day.
Thanks Matt. :)

smh blaming others for his own actions like a typical millennial

Bruh I agreed with you and pointed out why the quality of food has dropped and you got triggered and went off on a tangential woe is millennials whine, ironically bolstering the stereotype.

After EVERYTHING I've said and done today...you really think I'm a serious person? After I started calling you burp??
