Tee-totalling. 
 

My 18 year old doesn’t drink, never has and doesn’t intend to in the future. His girlfriend is the same, as are loads of his mates. 
 

The fuck’s that all aboot?

 

 

The quality of drugs these days makes drinking alcohol seem like listening to music on a gramophone.

1. Onlyfans - It's created a generation of girls that think being a whore is empowering

2. Tiktok - Dickheads dancing to shit music 

3. Clout chasers - People that wear clothes from Supreme and Canada Goose. Spending fortunes to look like a fucking idiot. 

 

 


I watched all of that video. I’m fucking appalled at those people for being them, myself for watching it and you for posting it, you bastard.

Change their phones every time a new model comes out.  I used to do this years ago but that's when mobile phones were shite but over the last 5 years they're just reincarnations of the previous one with a new number.  "Oh you've only got the iPhone X v5.3 Alpha?  I've just upgraded to the v5.4 Yer Ma for an extra £15 a month and I get a smiley face gif whenever I spout some shite about quinoa to it."

 

I'm still on my 4 year old phone and I have absolutely no plans to upgrade it.  Ever.

I literally just got given a Samsung one off my lad I know it’s good but no idea why. Only 9 months old but he is always changing.

I did some work for a phone recycling company once. Every year, they printed up a few thousand postage paid envelopes with a tear jerking picture of a donkey sanctuary charity logo on it but crucially the firm’s address. They paid teenagers to put these envelopes in churches, youth clubs, coffee shops etc. The charity got £1 for every phone they received. Every day the postman would bring sacks of I phones. Teenage girls love cute animals.

 3 or 4 quid for a coffee, the fucking dickheads. 

is fucking right.

I went on a weeks rest and recuperation jaunt up to the Lakes a few years back with a mate who I hadn't seen for years but kept in touch with. I assumed he was just the same as ever, 10 pints, a bag of chips on the way home etc.. and we landed in some place by his choice that was called 'Cafe Italiana' or some such shite in Windermere on the second day and he says "I just can't drink instant coffee", so I'm like "Why are you a spastic or something that stops you putting the cup to your mouth?". The answer was far fucking worse.."No, I just can't drink it, there's just so much better coffee these days".

Aye, OK...I remember when you were glad of anything that was alcoholic and also glad of anything that came in a cup that was cheap when we were skint, you blert. Now the cunt knows the price of a Gin and Tonic in about 84 different hotels from Cheltenham to St. Andrews.

All wearing the same style of coat.

 

Had my lad's football training tonight ( under 12's) and after our training the pitch is then booked by squad of 17/18 year olds, every one of them wearing a black bubble type jacket, what the fuck's all that about, they're all frigging sameheads?

This isn’t a new thing, kids have always done this, haven’t they?

Wearing fucking socks and sliders. No different to your grandad walking around in a pair of slippers and socks. Why would you go out the house for the day dressed like that?

Also going the gym. I go to the gym as I’m in my 40s and will become fat and unhealthy if I don’t look after myself. I don’t think I’d ever seen inside a gym until my mid 30s. A steady diet of drugs and alcohol is enough to see you through your teenage years and 20s. You’re already young and good looking. Why do they all go the gym?

Avoiding responsibility and life in general.

Then there's constant excuses of its everyone else's fault not mine.

No interest in current affairs.

Thinking that they will be a youtube millionaire upon leaving school.

Carrying knives.

No interest in sport or hobbies, unless it's fifa on the playstation.

 

The list is endless with this generation.

'Some kind of spastic?' Not a great phrase tbh.

Some big salaries in the charity sector. 

Absolutely right.  I spent a year working as a Business Intelligence Manager for a company that worked closely with charities, some of them really big hitters.  We were regularly invited to galas and charity nights where you'd have a selection of charities pitching to a room full of them and then having auctions for signed boxing gloves, nights in 5* hotels etc, and the bids were eye watering from people who were high flyers in charity organisations.

 

We were regularly offered free hotels in London and bar tabs running into their thousands on the house just to get us to do some work with them.  I left after I found it grotesque how much money was being retained by salaries and perks in nationally known charities, to the point where I was embarrassed to tell people about my job, and I'll never look at the sector in the same way ever again.
