  • The mean life is life? Everyone deals with that.

    Every single person agonizing about what is 'wrong' with them. Why people don't 'like' them. etc. Esp very popular, attractive, and successful people. They agonize about it a lot more than you.

  • bingo.

    the whole 'you'll do better when you're older' is a myth told to silence people who are unhappy in their 20s. Things don't get better, they stay the same or get worse. People don't magically mature at the age of 35 or anything... typically they just double down on bad attitudes.

  • no you can't.

    I am over 35. I had no toruble finding people 20-35. Now I have a lot of trouble and I have nothing in common with people my own age, not to mention the ones i do meet up with... are incredibly angry at their exes/life, and many of them are still expecting to find 'the one' as in someone who saves them from their own bad choices/habits. It's dark.

    at least when i was younger people were optimistic and fun.. now a first date is always 'what's your income, what is the price of your home, can you provide for me? if you aren't you're a selfish worthless asshole of a man'.

    and i'm like, 'ok'.

  • I get called judgemental all the time. I have on idea why. I don't judge anyone. And yet.... they judge me as judgemental.

    It drives me nuts. I think it's just my face and the fact I don't smile constantly. It also makes socializing very difficult, because I only tend to get along with very secure chill folks... which there aren't many of in the world. I often have people blow up at me for 'being mean to them' even though I have said nothing to them and didn't even notice them.

  • i have a lot to be bitter about to compared to my peers. and i chose to take that and do something positive with it and contribute to the world.

    and yet they are the ones whining about life isn't fair and mean to them. ironically these nitwits are also against 'government handouts'... except when the handout is to THEM. then they are all for it.

  • I mean, I don't disagree with you, but we both know people will reject that as government overreach and call it socialism. Esp in the USA culture, people are in love with their own ignorance above all else and will justify to you how their 10 year car loan is 'worth it' despite the objectively poor choice that it is.

    My favorite irony is telling people I use savings and 401K matching and them telling me that I am 'wasting money' saving/investing because 'you'll just die of cancer in the future before you can spend it'. It's just... pure bitterness and a willful lack of self-respect.

  • life is callous. and plenty of people decide to be drains who could be productive. it's also why you buy insurance.

    it has happened to me. my dad died and left us with tons of debt when i as 16. and instead of being a whiny bitch about it, i got a job and starting contributing to my family and we were able to pay it off through hard work and sacrifice of luxuries. i was hospitalized for month a few years ago and almost lost my job and had $5000 in unexpected hospital bills. i learned that the only person in life who will ever take care of me... is me, so i decided to take care of me. and now i'm doing great instead of being another whiny entitled millenial who thinks saving is 'says it's for my mental health' when they take empty their savings account to take a vacation to the maldives

    you know what's ironic. I don't see immigrants making 30K/yr whining about how they can't afford a home and retirement and education. I see them working their asses off, and making sacrifices to get ahead, applying for scholarships, living at home, working menial jobs and saving where they can. because they aren't entitled nitwits who think luxuries are a given. they know they have to be earned.

    what i see is a lot of entitled upper middle class people with six figure salaries who expected the world to be handed to them getting mad they can't afford a home/retirement because they are spending $5000+ vacationing each year and five figures on other luxuries while they doomscroll on their $1500 phones and whine about how unfair their life is and how unhappy they are and how much their therapy costs them and they will never be able to retire! yeah... no shit they won't... because unlike the immigrant they are lazy entitled idiots who refuse to be responsible for their own futures.

    I mean, I don’t disagree with you, but we both know people will reject that as government overreach and call it socialism. Esp in the USA culture, people are in love with their own ignorance above all else and will justify to you how their 10 year car loan is ‘worth it’ despite the objectively poor choice that it is.
