Oh geez! There’s another one to worry about! Virus!

And there might actually be jobs for the currently unhireable...face tattoos, huge gauges and pierced septums won't guarantee that welfare check in 2021.

 

My brother was going to get face and neck tattoos so that he would be forced to follow through on pursuing his music career.

Sounds good, man. Let me know. Lol

 

You mean the one that fought a two decade war, decided huge amounts of personal debt isn't good, and that took the internet from a thing nerds use to allowing boomers to share stupid memes on Facebook?

Yeah, totally useless.

 

Be fair now, we Boomers are not the only ones that post memes!

 

I think 'occupant' might be the proper addressee....LoL

 

The population is in decline, maybe next year there will be a massive increase in little ones, like what happens when a blizzard hits.

 

It will definitely be interesting to see what the impact will be on the US population. We're already below replacement levels and terrified of immigrants. We're only a decade apart from Italy in median age, which will likely reduce the impact of population decline due to the virus. But still going to be interesting.

 

I’m gonna try and help you out before you try posting something like this in a place where you’ll get embarrassed.

First off, only the oldest 3rd of millennials were old enough for the military at the beginning of the post 9-11 wars (never mind the desert storm prequel). That leaves gen x at the beginning, millennials in the middle, later tapering into gen z. There’s at least 4 generations involved.

Second, you either prefer debt or not. It’s always been that way. No generation has a monopoly on that, either way. Believe it or not, it’s always been like that. It’s why so few people can come up with $500 cash in an emergency. (Guess which demographic has the biggest problem with that. Bonus: guess which demographic they blame it on. Hint - not themselves)

Third, AOL was huge when the oldest millennials were in grade school. About as far from a nerd thing as you could get. It was dumbed down just as much (if not more than) Facebook. It’s what millennials cut their teeth on. Said another way, millennials had nothing to do with creating dumbed down internet portals. It’s what they learned from.

Like it or not, and no matter how divisive you try to be, almost all living generations (including your own) are part of everything good or bad that you either tried to distance yourself from or take credit for.

 

personally on the population/birthrate decline. I think that is a good thing. As we're kinda already reaching the saturation point of this planet's ability to support. So having us drop a few million/billion due to people not having kids or as many is a good thing. As long as health as a whole stays improving.
