There are a lot of generational cohorts, but only one of them is the actual worst.

Is the olds clinging to power and wealth?

Gen X like whatever man?

The avacado toast eating participation trophy generation?

The TikTokers?

Or babies?

    In hindsight I don't understand why I didn't make the snarky ones the actual choices.

    I will be the brave one and cast my vote for Chanus, though it may cost me my life.

    People say that generational comparisons are counter productive and you cannot paint a large cohort with a broad brush but that said it's boomers. Immediately boomers no question. Self aggrandizing, selfish, ladder-pulling shitheads who were handed everything and act like they earned it.

    Gen X were raised by arguably the worst generation on here, are arguably just as bad, and we're stuck with the bulk of them for at least another 30 years.

    I wish my cohort was better then it is (millennials) but for being immediately before us, Gen X sucks out loud.

    @SummaryJudgment That really sucks about your phone! I've never even heard of a phone being microwaved before. That's nuts. If you get a replacement, you should definitely take a picture of the fried phone for posterity.

    As a Gen Xer, I heartily agree. Although the Gen Xers that call themselves Xennials are the absolute worst. So insufferable.

    Gen Alpha hasn't said or done anything yet but they'll turn on someone when they inherit a polluted planet and that someone will be us.

    Get ready to hear all throughout your twilight years, "What do you mean you just threw away your plastic bags your loaves of bread came in? Didn't you know that plastic would end up in the ocean and float around for 1000 years? You're worse than Nazis!"

    My ire should be reserved for the older generations who, over the course of my entire lifetime, allowed for the infiltration of our government and legal systems by power-hungry interest groups that want to completely undo the welfare state in favor of unchecked capitalism and total theocratic rule

    But I am afraid the youths will judge me, so I must crush them
