Just because you do not want to be called old, does not change the fact that the older side of Gen X is old now. Leave your delusional BS with the dumb assed kids.

Tipping is out of control, good for them to resist.

I only use the mobile when I have no choice. Laptop at work, desktop at home. Mobile sucks balls when you have big fingers and bad eyes.

Sunce when did us Gen X guys start acting like ladiea? Ask about what wood we use to smoke the meat with, not be a bitch and ask about scents. Leave that for the kids .

I think I understand what happened after GenX...

You are spot on. Without social media blowing it way out of proportion, it would have been just another flu variant.

We can not be Boomers.

When I know I will be in the sun for an extended period of time only. I do not burn easily and get pretty brown.

What made you so resilient?

Was told to deal with it growing up. There was zero hand holding and we sorted out our own problems and entertainment.

Does anyone else have kids, but isn’t really bothered by the idea of not having grandkids?

A 12 year old will change his/her mind about anything a significant amount of times. Speculating on outcomes at this point is both demeaning to youralef and the rest of us .

Are we risking everything on our son’s dream of becoming a pilot?

Airforce? Let the military pay for the license?

I'm a 70's gen-xer but this one really made me feel old! Why would they do that?!

You're a lucky guy. I work in oil and gas, and we always have fresh meat for the grinder.

There is not going to be a time when the kids do not have access to a phone or computer. Different times mate, we are dinosaurs.

Cursive has zero value for communication. I am like you, a mess in block letters but decent cursive. I make myself slow down and become legible because cursive is useless.

I am much, much happier in an apartment. Owned 3 houses over my lifetime, and enough is enough. Endless money pits and time off was spent doing shite for the house. Now an issue pops up, call the landlord, not my problem. The value appreciation was nice, but I am happier without the headache.
