Stop Listening To Boomers - Monday!
What is good, everyone? It’s Monday, and I’m feeling grumpy. My kids didn’t let me get any sleep, and I had a crazy busy day, so let’s get straight to it.
Boomers can be cringey when they start dishing out life advice. They say things like, ‘If I were you, I wouldn’t do that,’ but honestly, you’d probably be just as much of an idiot as you are now. Here’s the thing: a lot of people, especially when they hit their 40s like me, start saying, ‘If I was 20 again, this is what I would do differently.’ But when you’re 20, you don’t have the same confidence you have at 40. Sometimes, it’s not even confidence; it’s just a lack of caring.
If I were back in high school, I’d be way more focused because I wouldn’t care about half the things that were going on back then. At my age, that same level of drama? I’m well past it. I don’t care who’s eating what for lunch or who’s beefing with who. I’d be more focused on myself because, as you get older, that’s all you end up focusing on. You’re like, ‘Screw all that noise!’ Your ability to block out noise at an older age is significantly higher, at least for me, and I think for a lot of people.
That’s why you always get these Grumpy Old Men stereotypes. At some age, you just stop caring. You’re like, ‘Everyone’s an idiot!’ And if you had that mentality in high school or early in college, you’d do a lot better. But you can’t just say, ‘If I was at that age…’ because, at that age, you’d probably be just as much of a dumbass. So, don’t listen to Boomers, I guess, is what I’m trying to say because a lot of times, they don’t know what they’re talking about. But if you were to listen to a boomer such as myself, stop giving a no one cares about you, no one cares what you’re going to become. I mean obviously maybe your parents care about you but that’s cuz they’ve invested so much in you but majority of the people around you they don’t give a man.
Stop listening to them! Stop caring what they think! Do whatever you want and just enjoy life because, honestly, it’s over before you even know it. In the blink of an eye, you go from 20 to 40, and then you’re sitting around making YouTube videos and wondering why you didn’t start this earlier. Anyways, until the next one, peace!
