Gonna drag this up from a few pages ago because the vast majority of the ~greatest generation~ didn't fight or even enlist so frankly gently caress them for trying to bask in the glory.

Also the US should probably fix its ongoing 'my dad didn't love me I am not worthy!!!' neurosis because it's been passed down for like 3 generations now. Including one that was somehow proud of losing the Vietnam war.

I think the term also applies to civilians from that time because for the most part their lives basically revolved around supplying the army so your country could win throughout most of the war years. If you weren't fighting you were toiling away 7 days a week making poo poo or mining things or picking through every scrap of waste to recover what you could.

Could you imagine what todays narcissistic, self absorbed fuckwits would do if they couldn't pig out on garbage for their Instagram accounts or buy a new phone every 8 months because those resources were needed to fight some psycho hell bent on gassing everyone to death?

I don't think I'd want to survive a nuclear war really - a world with no running water, electricity or food is not something I look forward to. I would, however, die happy knowing that millions of other Millennials were snuffed out in an instant while the survivors lived in agony as the world turned into something out of Mad Max.

How is a driver's license discriminatory? Is it discriminatory against poors who would never have a reason to get one since they could never afford a car? If the employer/boss ever asked if I could travel to see different offices/clients should I just make a really obvious wink to imply that I can hot wire a car? Or just wait until I'm fired when they find out I tried using the bus when they specifically said a driver's license is a requirement for the job?

Either way I don't believe this is real. And anyone trying to follow those examples would look like a colossal tool who's trying really hard to look smarter than they are by shoehorning words with lots of syllables into their vocabulary.

While having a conversation with my parents the other day, in my frustration about yet another delay with transit making me late for work I had remarked that "I hate this god drat city so much". My mother then told me if I wasn't happy that I was always welcome to come home - which is now about a 3 hour drive away from where I live. I'm pretty sure she only said that because she knew I would never, ever say yes.

My family members love each other without question, but we all realize that we can't stand being around each other for more than 3 or 4 days without getting under each other's skin. Living at home while I was in college was nice because it was cheap but after moving out I would never willingly move back, barring some unforeseen circumstance in which either I or one of my parents were no longer able to independently care for themselves.


Millennials: stop draining your parents retirement funds. They've raised you for like two decades already, please gently caress off so they can have a life again and live in peace.

When I see people with the half shaved hair style it reminds me of a cautionary tail about a girl who was half scalped by a lathe when her long hair, which she hadn't tied back, got caught in whatever was being worked on and the machine yanked it so hard it tore off the skin as well.

I have some bad news for Millennials here, and the people who hate them with such diligence.

Current generation of young Canadians wealthiest ever: federal study

quote:

"The current generation of young Canadians is, on average, wealthier than previous generations of young Canadians," says the confidential report, though with some cautionary notes.

"Young Canadians … born in the first half of the 1980s had an average net worth of close to $93,000 per adult. In contrast, previous generations of young Canadians had an average net worth of about $60,000 per adult — 35 per cent less once adjusted for inflation."
---
And these well-to-do, youthful Canadians are prospering far more than their counterparts in the United States, Britain and Australia, where "younger generations are no longer successively wealthier."

If you're nearly 30, broke and living with your parents you're an even bigger gently caress up than we thought. Sorry.

Don't worry too much though, I'm sure the actual report itself is full of massaged figures like averaging the super wealthy trust fund babies out with the legions of destitute and completely fails to take any other factors other than exact dollar amounts into account.

"Becoming disabled by choice, not chance: ‘Transabled’ people feel like impostors in their fully working bodies"
http://news.nationalpost.com/news/c...-working-bodies

well folks when you're crushing your legs with concrete blocks to get the body you feel you were really born with, I think we're crossing over into really bleeding obvious mental dysfunction

on the other hand assuming anyone who doesn't want to remain fully functional and enjoy the widest spectrum of life is Broken also implicates sex abstainers as equally retarded

on the other hand that's an accurate criticism

--

okay so gently caress these guys

Body Integrity Identity Disorder has been under study for several decades and its rebranding as "transabled' is just more evidence of the normalization of harmful mental disorders by people desperately trying to look inclusive and enabling this kind of behaviour. I do love this paragraph though:

“They tend to see transabled people as dishonest people, people who try to steal resources from the community, people who would be disrespectful by denying or fetishizing or romanticizing disability reality,” Baril says, adding people in both transgender and disabled circles tend to make judgmental or prejudicial statements about transabled people. “Each try to distance themselves.”

It's like they took a quick look at what's happened to the queer community with people slapping '-sexual' to the end of everything over the past few years and are just preemptively telling them to gently caress off.

I honestly couldn't think of a more offensive thing to say to someone who has been paralyzed by an illness or accident than to tell them I wish I was as disabled as they are. As if they wouldn't kill you in a heartbeat if it meant getting the use of their legs or arms back.

Having spent some time around Disability activists, they push back really hard against being called handicapped. There's a new narrative that disability is you guessed it a social construct and if society was just more accepting and used the right language there would be no difference between a deaf/blind/crazy person and everyone else. These are the kinds of people that suggest going off meds if it makes you "live your truth" and feel good. If you feel good, it can't be bad to go off meds, it's societies fault for making you feel bad, why conform to society? These are the people that have real problems with implants restoring sight and hearing as well as new meds possibly curing mental illnesses.

Every community has their weird extremists reactionary clique, that's hardly unusual. People having been looked down on and/or pitied most of their lives become bitter and react by going with "no you're the freak!!!" as a counter to what society has thrown at them. I saw it a lot when I was involved in gay activist bullshit when I was younger as well. Doesn't make it any less stupid though and it's hardly the majority opinion in most communities.
