You ever cry at night?

Another Gen X-er here... this was before my time, too.

not so much crying. just profuse sweating, dreams of falling, freezing cold or getting burned or just waiting in an afterlife room like beetlejuice, or punching the air and the pillows

Gen X here. Couldn’t buy a house until I was 35.

I'm 41 and we are two families crammed into one house.
- My next door neighbors are in the same situation
Millennial here. Over half of my friends will never own a house. And we are in the cheapest part of Canada to buy houses in.
- Well. At least we both will never get to retire!
I'm a millennial but I was gonna say this meme would be more appropriate if you replaced millennial with Gen X, you guys got the shit end of the stuck just like the rest of us unfortunately.
- They got more affordable housing than we did though. Young millennials have to deal with $500K+ houses, but genX had $100-200K houses throughout the 90s and early 00s during a booming economy.
  
  Nothing like boomers though, with their cheap ass sub $100K houses.
There is no genx community on Lemmy and the sub was interesting. Does anyone want to make a community for it?
- That would take effort. Does anyone from GenX really wanna do that?

Pain

Would be less painful if rents were affordable. I wouldn't even consider owning if rent was controlled in the UK. The market sucks at rent control

We zoomers are no little kids to you.

I know! You're voting and shit and actively taking part in kicking societal norms in the junk. As a millenial I'm ~~sooting~~ rooting for you to keep it up.
- We are going to be the ones to suffer and hopefully fix the climate change your generation didn't fix enough... if anything can be done from south America.
People still talking about Zoomers like they're children while the oldest of gen Alpha are 13.

Sometimes, but it happens very rarely. The last time was from an unrequited love

Sucks that she didn't love you back, but it was nice of her to still get you a good deal on the condo 🤷

There was one beautiful shining moment 2009-2012. If you didn't get in then God help you.

I cry in the day time, too.
