Incorrect! They might not be right but absolutely they’re gunna blame everyone else. When you’re a whiny selfish asshole the world is your oyster and everyone else is fair game(but if they get mad at you you’re a special innocent victim).

Well, they certainly do like to blame my generation for everything, so there's that.

Lazy millennials. They should pick themselves up by their bootstraps and work hard, just like me, earning more than half of what they do now and paying a quarter what they do for rent. So lazy!

Hey, get off my lawn, you're going to lower my property value by being poor.

“Our houses were more expensive because you see the interest was really high and-“

“We didn’t spend our money on things that didn’t exist yet and are now required to live! Don’t look at our wasteful lawns, large vehicles, or houses in the objectively worst kind of developments imaginable that we attach our entire self-worth to!”

“My parents had it hard when I was a kid and I’m far too out of touch to understand that you actually have very similar problems!”

I hate that I felt this in my bones. Well played.
