      New generations aren’t required to appreciate the culture of older generations.

      Frankly, I think the half-perm half macklemore high sided buzzcut fuccboi look is dumb, and it makes people look like pomped up poodles, but they aren’t getting those haircuts to be attractive to millennials. I imagine this is what my parents thought when every guy in my generation had spiked hair with bleached tips… So let them be alien to you, it’s totally normal. You don’t have to understand, but you should give them space to be themselves.

          When was the last time you saw punks and hip hop enjoyers partying together in a park?

          Never, but that’s because I spent most of my youth playing video games, or running around in the woods hitting my siblings with sticks.

      or is into philosophy or psychology

      That makes people fun?

      I find people of today extremely boring, especially young people

      I think you should take a look at yourself before you call a generation that is experiencing the highest cost of living in modern history, boring.

        That makes people fun?

        Yes, talking to people about something deeper than “lol, look at this meme” is fun.

        I think you should take a look at yourself before you call a generation that is experiencing the highest cost of living in modern history, boring.

        WTF does one have to do with the other…? Are you suggesting that people have zero interests outside of social media because of high cost of living?

        You do realise that libraries are free? That getting a used guitar will cost you all of $50? That getting a pencil and a notebook to start drawing will be, what, $5? Oh yeah, you can even get a pencil for free at an Ikea.
