67 Brutally Honest Posts From Millennials On Social Media (New Pics)

BP you should listen to this, and only post good and fun stuff! No celeb, No m****r, No bad news, etc etc!

Same with "you guys." It has no gender.

We were basically feral

As a boomer I do the same...

Or go to school and find out everyone was stuck outside as you went to primary school in the 80s and there was no internet or text

I’m GenX,, and my retirement is the same.

"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing." Socrates

The Millennial label is really incredibly broad due to how fast computers evolved. I was born in 86 to poor parents, I was not plugged into advances in technology until after I graduated high school. I did love cartoons on Saturday though, had a ninja turtle shirt that my mother had to disappear because I would not stop wearing it. Anyhow, I feel a closer affinity to Gen x because of my upbringing and my isolation from technology.

It's nice to have reached the age where when a couple of teenage girls glancing at me while whispering and giggling behind their hands no longer fills me with horror. Last time it happened I just hit them with a "right, whatever, morons" look.

Born in the 60s, raised in the 70s, partied in the 80s and had an awesome young life that I wouldn't trade for anything. Young adult life and midlife is still just as awesome. Can't wait for retirement. Health is still pretty good, so I'm content. That's the message I'd pass along to the younger generations: look out for your health. Take care of it. Your body will thank you as you get older.

That dream has been around since the lottery was introduced

And now we have gone full circle where there is so much misinformation that listening to aunt Marge might be safer bet.

And another thing! They always say, "check it out wherever you get your podcasts," but I feel like I missed the day where they told us where people get podcasts.

My husband, who works in IT, says things like this all the time. We are basically the only generation that is going to fully understand actual computers.

That and a woman in a pencil skirt making pancakes, bacon, eggs and coffee before leaving the house holding a slice of unbuttered toast in her mouth...

Why would parents apologise? They were always right. /s

Learning to believe in observable and reproducible facts as opposed to online hòrseshìt or so-called "common knowledge" can also be a real boon, regardless of one's age.

I lived in an 18' trailer for 10 years. I had a dog, and a cat, and it was clean and affordable, and the Jehovah's Witnesses were never able to find me. (I also had a separate building right next to the trailer that had electricity, a flush toilet, and hot water.) Life was good until Tweakers moved in next door to me and started cooking mèth 24 hours a day.

theres plenty of good modern stuff, it's just not played on the radio

At my school her name was Emily. Unfortunately, she was also the nicest girl in the world, so it was really hard to hate her, lol! I was sooooo jealous of her hair. I didn't get the hang of a straightening iron until high school. My mom's solution was to get my hair permed.

That hits too close home. The problem is when you feel a CRACK! on the other side, too 🥲

Wait until you slow down on drinking so you are not hungover next day. That's an age thing I now relate to.

Thankfully I live in a country with universal healthcare, and I have no student loans. However, inflation is seriously kicking my a**e, to the point that I save about as much as I did 15 years ago, despite earning 3 times more!

ROFLMAO!

Ok renter...

This. Some j*****s was going on about " no one under 30 wants to work" I am 62 and realize how stacked the deck is now. I don't blame people for giving up. I blame the system that gave them nothing but s****y choices.

Free websites on angleflare that you could code and dedicate to your obsession because someone else made an angleflare website that listed all the HTML codes.

Whenever my younger sister calls me, I always answer with, "what's wrong? Are you ok?".

The fattest person society is willing to accept before openly advocating for their eradication

Also big purchases = big screen

Social media and YouTube were already bad before AI

Or too old.

I told someone that while gas prices are high, at least they didn't have to queue on off/ even days based on your license plate. Mind blown.

I'm a millennial, but I was born in a decent country, so can not relate for a big part.

~No one knows what it's like, to be the sad man~

That was a good time! For me that was the summer between high school graduation and first semester of college. Great, great time!

Where am I suppose to keep the little metal ejector thingy I'll never use?

My Boomer advice to the new HS graduates..."Trades, you'll make as much as a degreed person for the most part. Then with time and a half, it's much more".

And on behalf of Elon, thank you.

Mostly at home in our pj's

Yes. She's 90 by the way, it probably doesn't get better.

Wait until those who have Win11 laptops find out that without a single warning, Microsoft may quietly hijack their local files and hold them hostage in the cloud to upsell them a OneDrive subscription.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Which explains quite a few things about me.

Younger people don't use wallets?????

I have got to the point that if I lay stomach down, I can't have a pillow or it messes up my neck for two days

genXer here - I hereby confirm and declare that a laptop is THE tool for handling the serious stuff

were we studying, or were they studying us?

That just puts me one step closer to the edge...

"Join our dynamic, fast-paced family!"

Gen-X too.

And now schools want to ban those again 🥲

Always funny how older generations say "millennials" when they mean teens / schoolchildren while the youngest millennials are like 30 at this point

Good for you! Keep being you because there's no one else like you.

Yep, we played the OG Unreal and Star Wars Battlefront

For your kitchen, hehe, and, pfff, bathromm, hahaha! I own my place, it is 30 sqare meter, my bathroom is smaller than my single bed, being 90 cm wide and 180 cm long (my bed has the same width but longer), and basically no kitchen just a hole (90 x 135 cm) with a stove and a small sink. I can never spare enough money to buy something bigger, and half of this flat was paid from an inheritance. And I dread the day when I'll have a bigger apartement.

And older still: paper maps. Also: ask directions at the first gas station that doesn't look creepy.

That is all of us. Gen X

American attachment to their high schools is weird to me. I wouldn’t pay anything to remember my high school. I’d really rather forget it.

Boomer here. Two pieces pf pencil were removed at my mastectomy. Still waiting for the results of the one in my throat. Pencil lead is *not* inert folks.

"Stan a war criminal""? What f*****g millenial was into George W Bush?

Not only does it describe the speed of a bee as "Large", that picture isn't actually a bee, it's a fly with coloring to mimic a bee for protection.

I’m sure you can find one. They wear red hats.
