Millennial "men" are soft. They grow those long beards as a distraction to the fact that they are lesser men compared to previous generations. Beta as gently caress.














Unless you were born poor, then you probably had to go to Iraq or take a hard blue collar job or went to prison and then you are as hard as gently caress, but you still have to shrug off the lovely indignity being lumped with the gently caress boy millennial "men".

I'm really sick of lovely writers trying to put a positive spin on this. Millennials as a whole have no redeeming qualities, time to stop pretending they do. Their kids are going to be even more hosed up because they were ignored by their self-obsessed parents, sat down in front of a tablet since birth, and their parenting was dictated by the whims of whatever stupid blog their parents happened to be reading that week. We're hosed.

In other millennial news I had to tell my '89 birthday cousin today about who Edward Snowden was and why what he did was a big deal.

Nonsexual contact is fine in small doses, but when it's taken to the extreme(like cuddle parties) then it becomes creepy and weird.
Most of the men you see in those pictures look like they've been banished to the permanent friendzone and that's the only way they can get physical contact without paying someone.


In response to some of your previous posts:

Hugging is fine and I regularly share mutual hugs with my close friends of the opposite sex when I haven't seen them in a while or when we're parting and won't see each other for a while. In either case it's mutual and doesn't last overly long.
People that are overly huggy with everyone just come off as needy and creepy. I'm talking about people who go in for a full on hug with people they just met or barely know, not a social greeting hug.

That's something that's a bit personal, even for friends. At least for me the only people who touch my hair or whose hair I would touch are people that I'm in a relationship with.

Had a millennial knock on my door today.

He was driving a riced-up Toyota Celica, had neck tats and a weird cap.
When I answered, he said "I'm from Craigslist to get the giraffe from Tina".
I guess I must have looked a bit "are you making GBS threads me?", because he then said "This is number 8 right?".

Now interestingly, when I moved in to this house, I made sure that our house number was clearly distinguishable. I installed a bollard at the end of the drive, painted it black and white strips and added glow in the dark numerals to make it as clear as possible. I also painted the number on my dark blue door in nice white paint.

Guess what....it ain't number 8.

He was waving his wallet at me when I pointed to the nicely painted numeral on the door.

Note, there wasn't a greeting or an apology or anything. He walked back to his car muttering something about Google maps.


I honestly can't tell if he really was trying to buy something, or if this was some elaborate version of knock-down-ginger/ding-dong-ditch.

short guys have all the good picks on clothes. I bought a suit recently and because I'm tallish I can't buy what's off the rack because it's either the good stuff is sold out or ugly as poo poo. I had to drop 4 figures on a custom suit because of it, instead of just getting something altered. Also im talking real nice suit not that flammable deteriorating nonsense they sell at k&g or men's warehouse

I feel like a goddamn boss in my suit tho

As a millenial, why cant I get along with my peers, especially in the tech industry? The only people I can relate to and talk to are angry 30-50 year old construction workers.
