>>680719
Yeah, that's what I believe in when I feel like shit. I go to the rich part of the city badly dressed with a beer in hand, then I stop in front of the luxury stores who sell expensive handbags, and I start saying outloud: "Look at this shit, 3000€ for this disgusting orange shit made of BABY COW'S SKIN, the bourgeoisie has no aesthetic sense anymore, at least the aristocracy knew what's beautiful in the world, but all the bourgeoisie knows are useless business meetings that waste everybody's time!"
They scoff and laugh at me, but deep down inside they know it's 100% true.

Then I start expanding on the details like how that color in particular reminds me of vomit, and how the handle looks cheap, that the bourgeoisie used to appreciate Wagner and Chopin and read books but now their kids are ignorant, and that their existence is reduced to meaningless office bullshit while the aristocracy wasn't reduced to work unlike them. I make stuff up on the spot.
At this point, the security guy looks at me funny, so I go to another store but I know I made his day.
You know the book Notes from Underground by Dostoyevsky? I identify to the narrator quite a lot.

>Having a midlife crisis at thirty-five

I'm starting to think that the current year warped perception of aging is due to delayed maturity.
The reason why millennials and zoomers feel old at thirty five is because of institutional infantilisation from parents, teachers, and third party adults doing excessive concern trolling.

>>681393
I think if Gen Z & Y were able to get their lives started in their early 20s, ie have an apartment and live on their own since then we wouldn't have this crisis of underacheivement.

>>681397
Nope. Mid-late teens at best
Boomers and early Gen X were able to start their adult lives at fourteen through eighteen.
They were the last generations to be able to do that

Millennials have been normalizing "life begins at thirty"and actively discourage vicenarians (twenty-somethings) from marriage and/or blue collar careers. They want them to remain as students for as long as possible.

They wanna advocate to raise the age of majority to compensate for "brain development".
That's just gonna make the problem worse.
It will allow young people to stagnate in depression and agoraphobia if they allowed that
And it's gonna make parents have to stay taking care of post pubescent children and delay retirement age.

>>681400
Newgene, have you heard about "cost of living"? You know, when you have pay rent to a boomer landlord to get a roof over your head? That's why millennials and zoomers are moving late out of their parents' house, landlords and banks who think the real estate market will increase in value forever and ever, it's not because of some neurosis about adulting, it's about economics.

>>681417
Duh, I'm well aware of that.
I hear boomers talk about how gasoline used to be half-a dollar per gallon.
It is economic but it's also about safetyism.
The boomers lived in a time where there were less liability laws.
Kids could drop out of school and start working full time in factories or workshops and get a house at nineteen

Also, we all know that the Northwest Hemisphere does socialisation wrong. They treat kids as pets to locked away from the world for two decades and then expected to survive with little to no life skills.

>>681422
You know wages have stayed stagnant for a while now, while costs are always increasing, especially since COVID-19?
You honestly talk like someone who still get fed and nurtured by your parents, and if it's the case you are resentful about it, that's why you get such silly ideas. If you had any ideas of how hard is it to get an apartment in my country, you would change your tune. Who earn 3 times the amount of their rent in a month these days?
There is a reason why in Italy most people our age stay at their parents' house: the job market is depressed. The whole online discourse about adulting is just cope in front of that fact, and it's the same in every developed country.

>>681428
Again, I'm well aware of wage stagnantion.
Most people over forty are shacking up with their parents to save on costs.
Thats not what I'm talking about.
What I am talking about is how millennials seem to normalize this sort of self-infantilised view of maturation.

Economic development doesn't have to affect your maturity level.
I don't make the mistake of "moving out of the nest = instant maturity".

I'm referring to how society nowadays patronised/discourages young people from experiencing the world outside of academia and idealism.

Which is why there too many people like OP who whine about feeling old at thirty five when they haven't had their first heart attack.

>>681429
Also, it seems interesting that people will acknowledge that wages are stagnating yet they seem offended by the idea of antinatalism.
People still wanna marry and procreate and then complain about how kids are leeches and their spouses are bigger leeches.

Single people are still wrongfully pathologised as manchildren.
Single parents are championed as "real working class heroes" by mere virtue of having dependents

Like, I understand that raising kids is difficult but you were warned so many times before hand and you still chose to fertilize some cumshots.

And these people demand higher pay in unskilled labor but don't wanna do more essential work that's in higher demand.
And a lot of these single parents nowadays are often junkies or just plain old slobs.
Alot of kids nowadays either have to be raised by the grandparents for proper rearing or have to rely on teachers and counselors.

>>681430
>What I am talking about is how millennials seem to normalize this sort of self-infantilised view of maturation.
Do you think I enjoy to live under the threat of being homeless tomorrow, as my parents live far away, and there are problems with my lliving arrangement right now? I might really become homeless again due to the economic situation and ask a friend to sleep on their couch, you fucking moron. This might very well happen to me IRL next month.
I'm scared shitless, it's always on the back of my mind and I don't know what I'm going to do with all my stuff. Most of it might go to the trash, or I will give them to friends. I might move to a cheaper country to save money, where it's easier to rent stuff.
Do you fucking understand how stressful is it? No, you don't have any fucking idea, it's always "millennials this, millennials that", from the comfort of your fucking suburb. You talk like a old man, but haven't lived anything. You are afraid of living, just like the man of the Notes from Underground, otherwise you wouldn't spend so much time here being bitter.
There are reasons why people are afraid, you are yourself afraid, all the time, of love, of millennials, and you want to pretend you are above it all while you reek of resentment. Stop posting here and get help.

This is rich coming from people who live their lives on imageboards whining about women being roasties for not paying attention to you or posting screencaps of dumb shit from Reddit or some political website.
And the constant whining about "muh zoomers are fascists" for not agreeing with liberal talking points when you're not blaming boomers for something else.

Also. If you read my post, I'm not referring to economic development.
I said economic development isn't the only issue here.
I said that "moving out" isn't the metric of maturity.

And you accuse me of resentment? When every other post on this site wants the world to burn for still being capitalistic and calls for culling of "moids" or "foids" because anons didn't get the idlyllic edgy romance story in their teenage years?

Where most of you feel entitled to get a gf despite romantic partners being expensive and untrustworthy with fidelity?

The more it goes, the more I think the average Marxist/leftist is stupid and feeling self-important for no reason, and that they need to develop survival skills and coping strategies allowing them to lead a good life in this cruel world instead of giving in to resentment. I've been such a resentful person in the past and it's not a good way to live, I was terribly sad.
That said, fuck capitalists and those people in suits, they are the reason why this world is going to shit, for a few dollars more of profit they will never spend. They are extremely shallow people and deserve scorn. And being a wagie was shit, so I can understand that resentment.

>Where most of you feel entitled to get a gf despite romantic partners being expensive and untrustworthy with fidelity?
I don't feel entitled to it, I know some traits of my personality are offputting in the long run, and it takes a whole lifetime to correct that without being hypocritical.
And romantic remationships aren't expensive wtf. Maybe in America (or Russia) you are expected to pay for everything and go on stupid fancy dates, but in most parts of the world, you just go to a café get some drinks, and if you are in the Netherlands, it's actually correct etiquette to split the bill. Most women I've dated were embarrassed when I started paying stuff for them too often, they want to be independent women you know? Once you have a gf, it's a cheaper way to have fun lying in bed doing nothing, than buying games on Steam.

economic shittery isnt stopping you from at least getting a real job at 20 though

like sure before the 20th century it was normal for more than one generation to live in a single house but even then most people who werent aristocrats or wealthy started working before turning 18

>>681464
What do people mean by "real job"? What counts as a " real job" whether you get payed by it or how much you get payed by it? Or is it based off of how productive it is? It always bugged when people say "real job" all that really matters is having enough money to get resources or finding some other way to get resoyrces

>>681467
not being a streamer for starters

>>681468
I will agree with that however if you make enough money from that then it would count as a "real job" to me. I think the problem here would be when the streamer make a whole lot of money and makes them seem more important than what they actually are and over inflates their value. This will probably cause a whole bunch of less skilled and talented people to get involved in streaming when they should do something else. Also it inflates the ego of the streamer

>>681470

lol

Is it supposed to be desirable or something?
Like I said, in Italy a ton of people under 30 are unemployed because the industry died in the 1970s, and in China workers over 35 have trouble getting employed if they didn't reach a management position by then.
What are we supposed to do? Jumping through hoops till our boomer capitalist overlords who could get a good job without a degree and buy real estate for nothing get a good laugh humiliating us. They had an easy life, and keep bitching about millennials and zoomers not unlike Newgene.
I had a real job before, for half a decade. It was shit, unrewarding, and you don't get paid enough to buy an apartment for yourself unless you live like a monk and take a loan for 20 years. Sorry, but after 5 days of wage slavery, I don't want to live like a monk.
So I can understand all the bitching about adulting, being an adult under neoliberalism fucking sucks. Newgene bitching about millennials won't change that matter of fact.

You know why? Because you all act just like boomers now.
In case you haven't noticed, millennials are accusing Gen Z and alpha of being lazy bums even here accusing them of fascism.
And I remember when almost a decade ago millennials were accusing Gen Z of being too progressive.

People like you talk about empathy but you aren't really empathetic.
And with the way you talk about your escapades and flaunting your Christianity, I don't like you.
Especially your "empathetic" attitude.

>>681442
>I don't do that, I humblebrag and people here hate my guts for it

Humble bragging is worse than luxury bragging. It's demanding society to reward you for being willfully pathetic.

>The more it goes, the more I think the average Marxist/leftist is stupid and feeling self-important for no reason, and that they need to develop survival skills and coping strategies allowing them to lead a good life in this cruel world instead of giving in to resentment.

You still seem to have that bitterness about you.

>That said, fuck capitalists and those people in suits, they are the reason why this world is going to shit, for a few dollars more of profit they will never spend. They are extremely shallow people and deserve scorn. And being a wagie was shit, so I can understand that resentment.

Capitalism is only has powerful as the proles allow them to be.
Most complaints against capitalism is just the underlings wanting to be the new masters. They don't wanna end the reign.


>I don't feel entitled to it, I know some traits of my personality are offputting in the long run, and it takes a whole lifetime to correct that without being hypocritical.

Idk, the way you speak on here tells me otherwise.

>And romantic relationships aren't expensive wtf. Maybe in America (or Russia) you are expected to pay for everything and go on stupid fancy dates, but in most parts of the world, you just go to a café get some drinks, and if you are in the Netherlands, it's actually correct etiquette to split the bill.

Because those places have more interactive socialisation.
People grow up together in tight knit communities where jobs are more localised.

>Most women I've dated were embarrassed when I started paying stuff for them too often, they want to be independent women you know? Once you have a gf, it's a cheaper way to have fun lying in bed doing nothing, than buying games on Steam.

Those are outliers.
If having a gf is less expensive in the long run, why are there an increasing amount of single people nowadays?
That would contradict your claim that "it's hard out in these streets."

TL Dr, you give off the male version of "I'm not like other girls" vibes.

>>681383
>You know the book Notes from Underground by Dostoyevsky? I identify to the narrator quite a lot.
I was like that for a while, but it becomes boring.

not going outside probably

>>681563
I do agree, my interpretation of the book is that the Underground Man is actually scared of living life, of being vulnerable. He goes to this party to troll his former high school comrades, dreaming of duels and slapping that officer's face but does nothing.
Then when Liza comes to save him from his misery, he humiliates her to feel superior, but actually there is nothing to feel superior about. He could have married her, taken a leap of faith but he was too much of a coward to do it. He hates her because she reminds him of his vulnerability. The problem is that I've been like this with women in the past and that's how you break their hearts. I would go back to my dusty room and pretend I don't care but deep inside I did.

>>681487

You only did five days of work and decided to go fully menstrual.
You act like you're struggling but really you're just lazy and immature
I've been reading your posts and you come across like these pretentious bohemian's who only consume but never produce
Not even a proper bohemian who makes art.
People like you who complain about "adulting" are often the very first to indulge on adult privileges when offered for free.

>>681619
He said he did half a decade of work. Unless you meant just working 5 days a week isn't a lot then alright then you seem to have misread what he wrote
