Knowing how to fix things is overrated. My oven went out and I learned how to use a multimeter to diagnose it only to find out that it was the discontinued control board which costs as much as a brand new god damn oven.
I hate American appliances, just make one god damn oven and don’t discontinue the parts.
I’d take that over literally being single-handedly responsible for ruining every industry in the west. I can fix some appliances with the help of YouTube at least.
I have no love for my generation, but you think we’re worse than boomers? Not looking to argue but I always thought our worst trait was indifference. Not that indifference isn’t terrible.
Tbf I was probably lumped in as an Xer for a while until Millennial became the buzzword. I was born right on the line. I have caught people my age(my twin brother included) removed about millennials. I don’t think X is worse than boomers but I know a few Xers that I wouldn’t miss if they got disappeared. Some of them really like to disregard the actual struggles of Millennials and it sucks. But yeah, TheLepidopterists was right, I was making a joke about us ruining the Applebee’s industry or whatever lol.
I feel this lol. I’m an elder millennial with a bunch of zoomer friends and don’t know what they are saying half the time.
I’m a Gen Xer.
No one writes articles about us, but the trade off is I have a basic understanding of how to fix common appliances.

This, I understand. Having issues with a TV with the same outcome: no parts.

I think that was a joke about “Millennials are ruining XYZ industry”

Sorry. I didn’t get the joke. But that’s because I’m pretty slow.
Nah man, no worries, lol.
