You're exactly right, we don't fight fair. We go straight for the feelings that will send them all whining and crying back home. We're playing nice with the requests of the current generations because we want to, not because anything compels us to. And really, at the end of the day, there's really nothing that the younger generations can do to us that could possibly hurt us. What are they going to do, change the Wi-Fi password? Please! We invented that trick! Plus, we lived life before Wi-Fi, yes it's nice, but we don't really need it.
They are disowning family and claiming we were all abusive and toxic. LoL They are cutting us off from the grandchild and swearing they'll never talk to us again. Haaaa

Uhhhh what generation was Columbine again? Oh yeah, millennials. What generation was every similar event caused by? You guys really need to think a little more.....
"Warheads on foreheads" as some of my brothers would say. Others would say "One shot one kill". There are plenty of others, but you get the point. I was going to war before these young ones were even born.
Bring it on…my Millennial child and my Alpha grandchildren have already learned…the hard way, lol. We want to be left alone…but if you choose to awaken us…don’t complain about the results of your poor decision making. Respect the X!
One should study the history of "no such thing as a fair fight" before poking the bear. Might I suggest starting with the brief 100 days labeled Desert Storm? Where a handful of Gen X took the Boomer handbook, added some creative spices to the recipe and smashed the world's 3rd largest army? So badly and quickly that the Military Industrial Complex went "shit, we can't let loose the ferals again. We didn't make any money"
OK so specifically though, that there was a bunch of them there whatchacallem "Athletic Alcoholics," and the *absolute Wildest of Weasels* the F-16 Fighting Falcon (Viper) doin' some crazy stuff to make Saddam (that's Madas backard's) cry with how hard that airframe just absolutely YEETED his air defense.

Are you crying yet?😂😂 Its not "hate", by the way. Gen X didn't "hate" anyone, we just like to stand our ground and not let anyone push us around.

We did fight a generational war at one time. The boomers called us entitled lazy shits, we said f you, and did our own thing and were successful. The boomers stopped talking about us, and started using the same tactics they used against us against the millennials. Thus getting us out of the limelight and allowing us to have the shadows we wanted. DBV has the correctness of the matter. We are in the shadows, we are everywhere, we can do anything, because we raised ourselves, fought a generational war as teens and young adults and won, and we took our spoils and went to our own home where we only got stronger. If the younger generations want to f around, they too can find out what we did to the boomers and reap the same rewards.
We also played in playgrounds that look like boot camp. Everything in boot camp is at an old school playground. We're tough, we ate dirt so we don't get sick like them & were feral.
I forget who said it.. but the quote "We are NOT the bigger person" comes to mind. I know that growing up in the 70's and 80's... I was taught "When you get them down in a fight do NOT let them get back up" Feelings do not matter and there are NO safe spaces. Challenge us at your peril... and be ready to be shown a dose of what reality can bring.
We don't fight fair, and we don't give two $#!+$ about what others think, so we'll go for the throats. There isn't an insult that we haven't already heard, so bring it!
You must be one of those "nice guy" types. I use every tool that comes to hand: fist, word, environment, knowledge of the opponent, & (most importantly) every bit of smarts & sneaky I can muster (& no small amount of downright mean, if I deem appropriate). But you do you.
Gen X is only playing nice out of respect, and a desire to create a better world. Disrespect us, and we will teach you how the world used to work. Neither of us wants that outcome. Your move, kids
Does this millennial punk not understand that Gen X is called "the forgotten generation" for a reason? I guess that he was to busy following hipster trends and being ironically sarcastic...
We're forgotten, comfortably so. But they forget that X is also our viewing rating: we don't hold back, & we cheat with as many hands as we can beg, borrow, or coerce to the task. They've also forgotten that, because we've kept out of the generational wars,... we're fresh to the fight. It's like Rocky coming out of the fight with Drago & immediately challenging a guy fresh from the locker room, without realizing he's wearing spiked gauntlets instead of boxing gloves.
The Question I have for the individual is: Have you ever been you're kicked to sleep? Because I am Gen X and I am an old school Force Recon Marine. I have no problem teaching life lessons. F**King with Gen x is like f**king with a honey badger, it won't end pretty.

@@jondspenyup…it is and it’s just as f***ed up as I remember…I’m very grateful that I had Indiana Jones at 8 years old rather than that but none of it’s great for kids bro…life lessons come in all shapes and sizes which is why as a bona fide child of the 80’s with a degree in child psychology I chose not to breed…I knew it was a powder keg that my generation would be pretty incapable of navigating gracefully…so, the good news is you won’t be bored for long!👍❤
Listen kid…I’m of the Gen X variety that believes in live and let live. Not sit around and sing kumbaya mind you…more of the you mind your business and I’ll mind mine variety. But you see, you’re starting to write a check your ass can’t cash. Here is a little insight if you haven’t been paying attention. You are messing with a group who have bottled up a lifetime of anger and disappointment. Do you really want to uncork that? Take a moment and really think about the meaning behind find out. Is that the direction you want to go in? We can… Better yet why don’t you take a seat, open your eyes and ears, and ask questions about how to survive in this world from people who have done it. But not stupid questions. We ain’t got time for those. And no, you won’t be getting a trophy for participating in this activity. Cool? 👍
'Uncork that' is the ultimate metaphor because you really don't want to unleash what we are holding inside for the good of humanity and attempting to live a peaceful life.
Dude may not even know what a merry go round is. Many were removed b/c they are 'dangerous'. I had no idea I had literally rode danger many times starting at a young age. Must be why I was able to succeed in the Marines.
Yes, Dad always said I better never catch you picking or starting fights. And I also better never hear about you not finishing one. Received the message loud and clear…I’ll beat you for either approach. I’m just not sure there’s anything left to prove to brats that continue to benefit from the labor of hardworking people.
A generation is often defined by their music. So Slayer reign in blood, N.W.A F**k the police, Suicidal Tendencies Can't keep me down. Ice T cop killer. Does this sound like a group you want united against you. No one knew what to do with us so they just let us be.
Not only don't we fight fair. We have a line from a movie all of us loved in our youth that sort of became our mantra when it came to getting revenge and that would be "It Doesn’t Feel Pity, Or Remorse, Or Fear, And It Absolutely Will Not Stop, Ever, Until You Are Dead!"
You want a piece of us Gen Xers? Fine. We’ll start the fight by yelling out pronouns and see who’s still standing. Then we’ll steal all of the gaming system power cords and drive away in our stick shift cars so you can’t steal them from us. And we’ll only communicate using written cursive writing so you’ll never see us coming.
Everyone these days expect communication to happen online. No one in the GenZ or GenA decades will think to check somebody's mail box. Is it slower? Sure. But it means one person, and one person only, makes the plans and everybody else is just expected to follow the plan, without arguing back and forth about this or that possibly better idea and wasting time.
We're the generation that raised ourselves and had to figure out everything on our own. Those who survived, grew STRONG. You want to attack us? Make sure your DNR is in place.

I just don’t understand why they feel entitled to come for Gen X..Gen X is taking care of 3 gens togetherrrrrr, three! seriously think about it. You really want us to feel annoyed by you? Cool beans, let’s get cracking at your own peril. But be aware we are not going to just “hurt your feelings” we play to win and most until we see blood but okay you ask for and now we are delivering
Apparently their answer (when you hurt their feelings) is going No Contact. LoL Cool story kid! Okay. You know that means no contact from this way, too, right?
@@lorireed8046 Sorry, I'm GenX and I went no contact with my WWII generation parents. They were miserable human beings. People generally don't go no contact because "you hurt their feelings." It's because they are narcissistic assholes.
Yes we did. Back in the 80s it was everywhere that was outside of the house. We lived on the streets and only went inside when the street lights came on.
Not just any SK, the Bachman Books that can’t even be published anymore. Don’t forget Clive Barker. Gen-X grew up on some truly terrifying media. A goosebumps shirt, if it wasn’t a black T-shirt with some crazy ass band logo it didn’t get worn. Slayer, Misfits, Venom that was my clique.

Years ago I once had a cocky millennial tell me he could do my job. That it required no skill. After a couple minute rant by me the kid was litterally sobbing in the corner. True story.
😂 challenge accepted young man. We don't fight fair. We can survive very long without modern technology and a pettiness thats unmatched. Seriously we know how to make weapons out of anything and change the wifi codes. 😮😮
Some of us voted for Reagan in ‘84 just to annoy our Boomer parents. When some of us enlisted in the US Armed Services of our own free will during the Cold War and it’s threat of nuclear annihilation, some of the Boomer types bewailed our decisions (while our Greatest Generation grandparents hailed us) . To their bleats of fear that they spewed at us, we responded with a bored “Whatever “. Stand down, junior.
I'm gonna sit back and watch. I've had enough of the battle. Thanks, kids. You all have had all the training, we taught you well. Now go unto battle and give 'em hell!
The younger generations are finding out that life is hard. We all went through it. Our parents went through it and thier children will go through it. My first thought is , I don't care. Not about their feelings or how hard they feel life is. I also don't care about the consequences after dealing with someone trying to harm my home or family. I remember my parents mortgage rate was 14.3% interest. Life was difficult for my parents and raising my family was difficult for me. Decades of always working to exhaustion and stretching every penny until I made copper wire. I repaired everything myself cars, plumbing, house , computer etc because I couldn't afford to pay someone to do it. Mind you there was no youtube, everything was books or just figure it out. I put two kids through university and they have no student debt because I worked as much as it took to pay the tuition. This is life welcome.
Didn’t someone bring up this subject not so long ago that went viral? Didn’t turn out to well for them as the forgotten generation gladly obliged them?
From a crazy ass 90s baby 91 I stand with gen x even if you don't claim me 😂😂 I was raised the same as you I listen to all the same music red fox is god and damn it I say patients that put phones and games in front of there kids should get the same punishment as patients that beat there kids that get out of line I had my ass beat and I thank my dad as a adult for making me a better man so for the kids that dont say it thank you to all the mom and dads who made use the people we are now you rock 🤘
A fact a prayer and a quote for GenZ and any other generation that's feelin froggy. Fact: GenX is the Chuck Norris of generations and our spirit animal is the honey badger. Prayer: Forgive them (GenZ) father for they know not what they do. Have mercy on their souls because you know we won't. Quote: You called down the thunder, well now you got it. You tell em (GenZ) we're coming and hell's coming with us.
I've taught all four of my children not to mess with me because I WILL take it to the next level no matter what they do. And, I WILL win. Somebody has to teach these kids that their feelings don't matter to anybody but the voices in their little heads.
Two of my grown children thought it would be a good idea to take on a Gen X dad. I changed the locks, shut off the cell phones, and stopped paying for any insurance I was not obligated to pay for. By the time my son was 18 he said I had to feed him. I told him if he came on my property again, I would ....... We do not fuck around.
Yep. I have a friend of mine 23 year old son I told him to get of my house many times. I asked him why he hasn't left. He didn't say anything. I said to him the best part of him ran down his mommas leg when she got up after his dad busted inside her. The look of sadness on his have. Priceless. He tried getting up on me. . It didn't work.
GenX is very good at hurting people's feelings if we really wanted to. We grew up slinging insults because we didn't have cell phones, internet, social media, and streaming services. Millennials are notorious for getting their feelings hurt, and I don't think they could take it if we decided to bring it.
Gen X we know how to use not only our fist but we have nasty mouths. We dont get upset by hurty words and love a good fight. Beware gen z if you poke the bear you will get your arses kick that high your arse will end up where your collar is and speaking in a higher pitch than you do at the moment. Just leave us alone or you will release the monster that all Gen Xers are.
Hehe LOLs and scratches his nose with his thumb, takes an on guard stance and makes a “come here” hand gesture in Bruce Lee fashion and saying in the immortal words of Moe Howard “Come here Porcupine. I got something for you.”
I'm a Gen X veteran. I spent 4 years in the generational war we call the Cold War. Then I got to skip the Gulf War but wound up in the LA Riots while in the National Guard. Then did tours in Iraq and Afghanistan during GWOT. I will *TOTALLY* wipe the floor with a millennial clown that wears an R.L. Stine t-shirt (a juvenile horror writer who writes at the 4th grade level because that's his demographic) and somehow found and wears glasses even dorkier than the 1980s black frames I wore as a damn Private. Fighting fair isn't even an issue.
We got royally screwed over by the Boomers in every way possible. Do NOT try our patience, youngling, this is a group of people who have a LOT of pent-up rage. We treated our kids better than we were treated, but now that you are adults, the gloves are off. We are not sleeping well, our backs hurt, and we are cranky. Don’t do it. You won’t get another warning, and you only get this one because we like you more than the Boomers.
I SERIOUSLY love this guy!!!!! Not in a homosexual way but gees I could listen to the way he puts things all day long and if he were to lead the Gen X I would follow till the bitter end!!! Just remember, all you younger generations, we didn’t grow up with computers doing our thinking for us. We are no joke and don’t give an aerial rodent fornication about your feelings! You may have youth and exuberance but we have experience and treachery and we aren’t afraid to use either of them to put you in your place.
We raised ourselves in gen x. At 10 years old we already had the tools to win this fight. There's a reason why we're left alone and we like it that way.

Thus getting us out of the limelight and allowing us to have the shadows we wanted. DBV has the correctness of the matter. We are in the shadows, we are everywhere, we can do anything, because we raised ourselves, fought a generational war as teens and young adults and won, and we took our spoils and went to our own home where we only got stronger. If the younger generations want to f around, they too can find out what we did to the boomers and reap the same rewards.
Word!
We also played in playgrounds that look like boot camp. Everything in boot camp is at an old school playground. We're tough, we ate dirt so we don't get sick like them & were feral.
it was all just the natural way of things, as we are experiencing right now with these new young twats.
We don't just know asymmetrical and unconventional warfare. We ARE asymmetrical and unconventional warfare with caffeinated sarcasm and bitterness.
'Not able to wean off the nipple appropriately' really got me. I just paid my son's car insurance! 😄
I forget who said it.. but the quote "We are NOT the bigger person" comes to mind.
I know that growing up in the 70's and 80's... I was taught "When you get them down in a fight do NOT let them get back up"
Feelings do not matter and there are NO safe spaces. Challenge us at your peril... and be ready to be shown a dose of what reality can bring.
it was the mid western chick who did the "sir, we will fuck you up" speech. I love her.
He definitely fits the representation of his generation
Ouch!
I’m one of three girls, our dad taught us that if someone attacks us to hit them with the closest heavy object. I took it to heart! 😂
Hahaha, I'm 1 of 4 with 2 brothers. They taught me well. There is NO such thing as a "fair" fight when you are a girl 😂❤
My dad used to say if you don't have a handful of hair, don't come back
@trollhunter6934 my sister's use to say that if you don't win, don't come home 😂😂
@@trollhunter6934 😂😆
My vet dad taught me the same thing. He also said avoid a fight if you can, if not don't stop. Gotta love Airborne.
"We don't fight fair". If it's a real fight, there's no room for fair. Well said.
We don't fight fair, and we don't give two $#!+$ about what others think, so we'll go for the throats. There isn't an insult that we haven't already heard, so bring it!
Or used!!!
Gen X fights with its fists and our very sarcastic mouths and we are quick with both.
You must be one of those "nice guy" types. I use every tool that comes to hand: fist, word, environment, knowledge of the opponent, & (most importantly) every bit of smarts & sneaky I can muster (& no small amount of downright mean, if I deem appropriate). But you do you.
Quick
Gen X is only playing nice out of respect, and a desire to create a better world.
Disrespect us, and we will teach you how the world used to work.
Neither of us wants that outcome.
Your move, kids
Now the tune "im a gonna whoop somebody's ass" is stuck playing in my headed now :-)

Remember Check yourself before you Wreck yourself?
The man Ice Cube. One of my favorite tunes.
Does this millennial punk not understand that Gen X is called "the forgotten generation" for a reason? I guess that he was to busy following hipster trends and being ironically sarcastic...
The Generation that Must Not Be Named ;)
We're forgotten, comfortably so. But they forget that X is also our viewing rating: we don't hold back, & we cheat with as many hands as we can beg, borrow, or coerce to the task. They've also forgotten that, because we've kept out of the generational wars,... we're fresh to the fight. It's like Rocky coming out of the fight with Drago & immediately challenging a guy fresh from the locker room, without realizing he's wearing spiked gauntlets instead of boxing gloves.
We're "forgotten" because its a good idea to forget about Freddy K, in the hopes he doesn't get you in your sleep. We're a damn horror show.
He's been too busy attending glory holes and trying to get the govt to pay for his front bottom surgery
@timothyblazer1749 Yeah, he didn't believe in fair fights either...
The Question I have for the individual is: Have you ever been you're kicked to sleep? Because I am Gen X and I am an old school Force Recon Marine. I have no problem teaching life lessons. F**King with Gen x is like f**king with a honey badger, it won't end pretty.
“Honey badger doesn’t give a s***”…excellent comparison…now I’m off to go see if that vid is still on UA-cam…it’s been AGES!😂❤

@@jondspenyup…it is and it’s just as f***ed up as I remember…I’m very grateful that I had Indiana Jones at 8 years old rather than that but none of it’s great for kids bro…life lessons come in all shapes and sizes which is why as a bona fide child of the 80’s with a degree in child psychology I chose not to breed…I knew it was a powder keg that my generation would be pretty incapable of navigating gracefully…so, the good news is you won’t be bored for long!👍❤
Listen kid…I’m of the Gen X variety that believes in live and let live. Not sit around and sing kumbaya mind you…more of the you mind your business and I’ll mind mine variety.
But you see, you’re starting to write a check your ass can’t cash. Here is a little insight if you haven’t been paying attention. You are messing with a group who have bottled up a lifetime of anger and disappointment. Do you really want to uncork that? Take a moment and really think about the meaning behind find out. Is that the direction you want to go in? We can…
Better yet why don’t you take a seat, open your eyes and ears, and ask questions about how to survive in this world from people who have done it. But not stupid questions. We ain’t got time for those. And no, you won’t be getting a trophy for participating in this activity. Cool? 👍
'Uncork that' is the ultimate metaphor because you really don't want to unleash what we are holding inside for the good of humanity and attempting to live a peaceful life.
Spin up the merry go round, someone wants to go for a ride.
FASTER FASTER FASTER, I was a girl and I ran with the boys to send that thing to the moon! Good times.

@@crct2004Good times
Dude may not even know what a merry go round is. Many were removed b/c they are 'dangerous'. I had no idea I had literally rode danger many times starting at a young age. Must be why I was able to succeed in the Marines.
Fighting fair was never a chapter in my gen X manual. I must have been raised right.
My Gen X manual quoted my father, stating "The only fair fight is the one you win". (Dad was part of the Silent Generation)
We were raised by survivors. Do what you gotta do
That chapter was only one line, something about going 1 v 1 not much else.
Yes, Dad always said I better never catch you picking or starting fights. And I also better never hear about you not finishing one. Received the message loud and clear…I’ll beat you for either approach. I’m just not sure there’s anything left to prove to brats that continue to benefit from the labor of hardworking people.
Yep. If it's worth fighting over, then it's worth fighting dirty over.
We don’t fight fare… we fight to win…
A generation is often defined by their music. So Slayer reign in blood, N.W.A F**k the police, Suicidal Tendencies Can't keep me down. Ice T cop killer. Does this sound like a group you want united against you. No one knew what to do with us so they just let us be.
100% . Right f-ing on.
Not only don't we fight fair. We have a line from a movie all of us loved in our youth that sort of became our mantra when it came to getting revenge and that would be "It Doesn’t Feel Pity, Or Remorse, Or Fear, And It Absolutely Will Not Stop, Ever, Until You Are Dead!"
TERMINATOR
Oh yea? How about philosophy of what is best in life? “To crush your enemies, See them driven before you, And to hear the lamentation of their women!”
I was kinda thinking more like.... "Let the hatred flow through you, feel the power of the dark side"....
@@evilbarbie2160 Yes yes I can feel the anger growing inside you!!
@@jondspen My personal fave. Especially if one decides to make themselves my enemy.
Reading through the comments. I'm glad I'm not the only one with this attitude.
You want a piece of us Gen Xers? Fine. We’ll start the fight by yelling out pronouns and see who’s still standing. Then we’ll steal all of the gaming system power cords and drive away in our stick shift cars so you can’t steal them from us. And we’ll only communicate using written cursive writing so you’ll never see us coming.
My tribe 😎
I'm with you on that one. Because my current car is a 5 speed hatchback, and not even my wife can read my handwriting.
Everyone these days expect communication to happen online. No one in the GenZ or GenA decades will think to check somebody's mail box.
Is it slower? Sure. But it means one person, and one person only, makes the plans and everybody else is just expected to follow the plan, without arguing back and forth about this or that possibly better idea and wasting time.
Sir are you a carpenter? Because you NAILED IT 😂
As a Younger Millenial (1996), Oh heck nah... I don't support bringing Gen X into this generational war, it'd be a massacre... for us.
😂😂😂 they ain't ready for this!😂😂😂😂
We're the generation that raised ourselves and had to figure out everything on our own. Those who survived, grew STRONG. You want to attack us? Make sure your DNR is in place.
The other generations don't mess with X because they want to live.
😂😂😂❤❤❤😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂👎👎👎👎👎
As a Sr. Millennial, I due remember my father saying something about youth and exuberance vs. old age and treachery.
Sounds like he wants to fuck around and find out? I'm down.
the Geneva checklist is due for an update anyway so might as well get to it.
I agree… update it so that the younger generations MIGHT stand an inkling if a chance. 😂🤣😂
Yep! There is more than just drones and A.I.
... so much more!
I think i speak for us all Gen Xers. Bring it on .
You do
And some of us milennials (1986) who think the world was a better place before smartphones and widespread internet.
Mess with the bull, you’ll get the horns. 🤘🏻
Dont have to change the wifi codes if you go ahead and disable some lines. Half of these younglings aren't able to converse face to face with other humans, much less navigating using a paper map. I think we're good here.

-The Weight- ? Seems like it would go with that amazing mix.
I just don’t understand why they feel entitled to come for Gen X..Gen X is taking care of 3 gens togetherrrrrr, three! seriously think about it. You really want us to feel annoyed by you? Cool beans, let’s get cracking at your own peril. But be aware we are not going to just “hurt your feelings” we play to win and most until we see blood but okay you ask for and now we are delivering
Apparently their answer (when you hurt their feelings) is going No Contact. LoL
Cool story kid! Okay. You know that means no contact from this way, too, right?
@@lorireed8046 Sorry, I'm GenX and I went no contact with my WWII generation parents. They were miserable human beings. People generally don't go no contact because "you hurt their feelings." It's because they are narcissistic assholes.
Yep, and hopefully in the 2028 Presidential election it will be a Gen x that gets it.
Entitled is the reason. Spoiled brats.
Spoken from a guy wearing a damn goosebumps shirt. When we were reading Stephen King. Go back to your safe space kid we didn't have one.
Yes we did. Back in the 80s it was everywhere that was outside of the house. We lived on the streets and only went inside when the street lights came on.
Not just any SK, the Bachman Books that can’t even be published anymore. Don’t forget Clive Barker. Gen-X grew up on some truly terrifying media. A goosebumps shirt, if it wasn’t a black T-shirt with some crazy ass band logo it didn’t get worn. Slayer, Misfits, Venom that was my clique.
Right there with ya, Obituary, Death, Motorhead.
@@madhatter5331 Damn shouldn’t have left off Motörhead. Actually got in trouble at school for the Orgasmatron shirt. lol “Ride the Orgasmatron, I came did you”. lol Danzig’s God Don’t Like it didn’t go over to well either. Great shows as well.

You could probably take him with words! He looks like the type that would get his feelings hurt easily

You have nothing better to do but to pick a fight with GenX??? The sleepy giant is the perfect example
Our motto is…. Fuck around and find out!!! So you have a choice!!!
They seem to love choices!
Years ago I once had a cocky millennial tell me he could do my job. That it required no skill. After a couple minute rant by me the kid was litterally sobbing in the corner. True story.
You went easy on him. Should have stepped away and said, 'Have at it.' Then come back after lunch break.
From one Gen-Xer to another I couldn't have said it better and you said it politely
😂 challenge accepted young man. We don't fight fair. We can survive very long without modern technology and a pettiness thats unmatched. Seriously we know how to make weapons out of anything and change the wifi codes. 😮😮
whoot!!!!! LETS DO IT!!!!!! Just remember when it starts there's no stopping till you can't get back up.
Some of us voted for Reagan in ‘84 just to annoy our Boomer parents. When some of us enlisted in the US Armed Services of our own free will during the Cold War and it’s threat of nuclear annihilation, some of the Boomer types bewailed our decisions (while our Greatest Generation grandparents hailed us) . To their bleats of fear that they spewed at us, we responded with a bored “Whatever “.
Stand down, junior.
I'm gonna sit back and watch. I've had enough of the battle. Thanks, kids. You all have had all the training, we taught you well. Now go unto battle and give 'em hell!
I suggest he looks up and plays a game called bloody knuckles with any gen-xer first, and truly grasp that this was done for fun…….for fun.
The younger generations are finding out that life is hard. We all went through it. Our parents went through it and thier children will go through it. My first thought is , I don't care. Not about their feelings or how hard they feel life is. I also don't care about the consequences after dealing with someone trying to harm my home or family. I remember my parents mortgage rate was 14.3% interest. Life was difficult for my parents and raising my family was difficult for me. Decades of always working to exhaustion and stretching every penny until I made copper wire. I repaired everything myself cars, plumbing, house , computer etc because I couldn't afford to pay someone to do it. Mind you there was no youtube, everything was books or just figure it out. I put two kids through university and they have no student debt because I worked as much as it took to pay the tuition. This is life welcome.
Bring it on sparky. Just remember, we don't fight to fight fair, we fight to win. Make sure you've got paramedics with you, you'll need them.
To fight fair is to guarantee a loss. But if you want it we're all here for it😂😂
Didn’t someone bring up this subject not so long ago that went viral? Didn’t turn out to well for them as the forgotten generation gladly obliged them?
You called down the thunder well now you got it. May God have mercy on your soul for we will not
Only fools write checks with their mouths that their ass cant cash
True
Oh this is so dead on, my kids have found out not to poke the bear usually because he is rather gassy.
Let's get Gen x and put these kiddos back to bed and Gen x can go back to sleep lol
From a crazy ass 90s baby 91 I stand with gen x even if you don't claim me 😂😂 I was raised the same as you I listen to all the same music red fox is god and damn it I say patients that put phones and games in front of there kids should get the same punishment as patients that beat there kids that get out of line I had my ass beat and I thank my dad as a adult for making me a better man so for the kids that dont say it thank you to all the mom and dads who made use the people we are now you rock 🤘
The cusp-lings on either side of X are often given immunity and can easily be among us if you choose wisely.
Come at me and mine if you wish. What happens next is your own fault.
We don’t fight fair !!!
Exactly !!!
First rule of fighting - Never fight fair.
1966 and still rockin it
A fact a prayer and a quote for GenZ and any other generation that's feelin froggy.
Fact: GenX is the Chuck Norris of generations and our spirit animal is the honey badger.
Prayer: Forgive them (GenZ) father for they know not what they do. Have mercy on their souls because you know we won't.
Quote: You called down the thunder, well now you got it. You tell em (GenZ) we're coming and hell's coming with us.
I find these videos extremely entertaining my friend
Rock on 🤘
As a 1964 "Boomer" I take exception the thought that we late boomers are about to transition to Valhala..
The cusp-lings on either side of X are often given immunity and can easily be among us if you choose wisely.
I've taught all four of my children not to mess with me because I WILL take it to the next level no matter what they do. And, I WILL win. Somebody has to teach these kids that their feelings don't matter to anybody but the voices in their little heads.
Two of my grown children thought it would be a good idea to take on a Gen X dad. I changed the locks, shut off the cell phones, and stopped paying for any insurance I was not obligated to pay for.
By the time my son was 18 he said I had to feed him. I told him if he came on my property again, I would .......
We do not fuck around.
his threat sent chills down my gen x spine.. one might say he gave me.. goosebumps.
The kid doesn't realize that we X'ers set the world awash in a sea of uncaring, brutal ingenuity and cold, remorseless sarcam. 1:59
Yep. I have a friend of mine 23 year old son I told him to get of my house many times. I asked him why he hasn't left. He didn't say anything. I said to him the best part of him ran down his mommas leg when she got up after his dad busted inside her. The look of sadness on his have. Priceless. He tried getting up on me. . It didn't work.
He say its only fair,we know Sun Tzu is not an option at the tanning salon
GenX is very good at hurting people's feelings if we really wanted to. We grew up slinging insults because we didn't have cell phones, internet, social media, and streaming services. Millennials are notorious for getting their feelings hurt, and I don't think they could take it if we decided to bring it.
Gen X we know how to use not only our fist but we have nasty mouths. We dont get upset by hurty words and love a good fight. Beware gen z if you poke the bear you will get your arses kick that high your arse will end up where your collar is and speaking in a higher pitch than you do at the moment. Just leave us alone or you will release the monster that all Gen Xers are.
Hehe
LOLs and scratches his nose with his thumb, takes an on guard stance and makes a “come here” hand gesture in Bruce Lee fashion and saying in the immortal words of Moe Howard “Come here Porcupine. I got something for you.”
Gen X hated on Gen X before they ever hated on Boomers…. We started this, we can and will end it if you insist.
I'm a Gen X veteran. I spent 4 years in the generational war we call the Cold War. Then I got to skip the Gulf War but wound up in the LA Riots while in the National Guard. Then did tours in Iraq and Afghanistan during GWOT. I will *TOTALLY* wipe the floor with a millennial clown that wears an R.L. Stine t-shirt (a juvenile horror writer who writes at the 4th grade level because that's his demographic) and somehow found and wears glasses even dorkier than the 1980s black frames I wore as a damn Private. Fighting fair isn't even an issue.
BCGs! lol
@@WrenchS13 Lol. Glad someone remembers. I also got the Elton John BCGs that came afterwards.
We got royally screwed over by the Boomers in every way possible. Do NOT try our patience, youngling, this is a group of people who have a LOT of pent-up rage. We treated our kids better than we were treated, but now that you are adults, the gloves are off. We are not sleeping well, our backs hurt, and we are cranky. Don’t do it. You won’t get another warning, and you only get this one because we like you more than the Boomers.
Damn, Naomi, you just described my life. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I knda want them to bring it, lol.
🤣🤣 I knew I heard that quote from somewhere!! It definitely applies. 🤣✌️
Good luck peewee.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The reason we are left alone is our Rage is constant... And even the Boomers know we are better ignored because we do not accept less than reality.
Listen, son. You can take your hate train and ride it right out of town.
I SERIOUSLY love this guy!!!!! Not in a homosexual way but gees I could listen to the way he puts things all day long and if he were to lead the Gen X I would follow till the bitter end!!! Just remember, all you younger generations, we didn’t grow up with computers doing our thinking for us. We are no joke and don’t give an aerial rodent fornication about your feelings! You may have youth and exuberance but we have experience and treachery and we aren’t afraid to use either of them to put you in your place.
These children have no idea of FAFO. 😂😂😂. I don't feel sorry for them. I have no feeling 😅😅😅
IKR, feelings are for pussies - I should be dead already but I am not and I stored up a lot of, let's just say energy.
Well said young man. Here here. Bravo!
Warriors, come out and play...
Clink clink clink, I used this reference the other day - they did not get it, lol.
Shhh! Some talentless Hollywood writer may try to remake the thing.
Point taken 🤣
We raised ourselves in gen x. At 10 years old we already had the tools to win this fight. There's a reason why we're left alone and we like it that way.
