Generation Z doesn't know how to do basic stuff.
The Fall of Civilization as we know it

Here is a short list of things most of them simply just don't know how to do:

- Write beautifully with a pen on paper.
- Use the hierarchical File Explorer in the Windows Operative System.
- Fixing their own computer and cell phone problems and related issues.
- Rewinding a cassette tape
- Politely holding well balanced eye contact
- Basic Carpentry
- Fixing their car by themselves
- Holding a conversation
- Flirting with the opposite gender
- Dancing
- Successfully asking the workplace for a raise
- Negotiating in their own favor
- Teamwork
- Party
- Having fun in life enjoying everything life has to offer ! :p_heart:

*sigh*

What will the world come to ? ... :steamfacepalm:

Well they do have some advantages; ability to adapt quickly, technology and trends, multi-skills, efficiency and work-life balances. They also have many problems ahead of them but then again, all generations had their obstacles.

Each generation repeats this frequently from one past to the next.
Boomers don't know how to do basic stuff.

Here are a short list of things most of them simply just don't know how to do:

- using a phone📱
- using artificial intelligence 🤖
- mining bitcoin ⛏️
- tolerating people with different opinions 🤝🏻
- maintaining a normal economy in which future generations wont struggle🏠
- not start a war

Writing (beautifully) with Pen... Totally pointless in an era with smartphones :steambored:

Use File Explorer... Totally pointless, most ppl do not even use computers anymore in 2024...

Cassets??!!! Who even uses those in 2024?!! :steambored:

And the rest Ia just either nonsense or totally inaccurate...

Boomers are in their 70s right now. Nobody expect them to function as well as the rest of us.

Most GenZ gamers can't even complete videogames on normal difficulty.
What used to be 'easy' difficulty in games is actually the new 'hard' difficulty these days.
Every developer is making their games extra super easy.
From Software make medium difficulty games, but Gen Z thinks those games are the hardest of the hard - most difficult games ever. Go figure! :lunar2020thinkingtiger:

Wow :slimeamazed:

I can smell that roast from here...

Even though the number 4 has exceptions but comparing to older times, yeah, it has improved a lot...

And GenX would make the claims about Millennials:

Unable to use command line to use older computer
Unable to use a rotary phone
Unable to do math without a calculator

Etc etc. The older generation always complains about the newer, and vice versa.

GenX and Millenials (Gen Y) = Best Generations :goldencheck:
But it's true kind of... I feel like the only one in my circles who can handwrite letters and do stuff like proper cursive writing, do simple maths without a calculator.

What happened to my generation?

Oh and cool story OP

You can't be serious... right?
They hated him because he told the truth
All generations are useless...
