Millennials Are Slowly Turning Middle-Aged And Here Are 30 Of The Funniest Things They Caught Themselves Saying Or Doing, As Shared In This Online Group
In every millennial's life, there is that one day and that one time that you say something to yourself or out loud and then stop for a second in awe. Whatever the sentence was, you couldn’t have imagined saying it unless, well, you’re middle-aged. Be it “I am looking forward to going to bed” or “Why is the music so loud in here?!” and then all of a sudden, the moment of realization hits and the lightbulb switches on: I am definitely ageing. And before you change your mind from getting takeout to actually going home and cooking the chicken that’s been sitting in your fridge for a few days now, take a look at the list below of the best things people have caught themselves saying that made them realize they’re slowly knocking at the middle-aged people's door.
The online community r/AskReddit, labelling themselves as “the place to ask and answer thought-provoking questions,” was a perfect platform for the user naxxfish to fire it out to the millennials: “What was the most middle-aged thing you caught yourself saying recently?” And, well, the answers were ranging from hilarious to hysterical to "I can actually totally relate." Vote for your favorite ones and let us know yours!

They're listening to whatever their parents won't. Same as last generation. And the one before that.

They're listening to what they like, why are people so critical about music? My parents didn't like mine, I don't like my kids music but who cares, unless you're a control freak; live and let live

Honestly, a lot of it IS garbage. It's no longer required to work hard at being be a good musician to create "music". Just push buttons on a machine like a monkey. It's no longer required to have talent to sing. Just fix your terrible off-key voice with technology.

A lot of old music is also garbage, you're just only remembering the highlights. You can have a music preference without being a prick

I played Tool and Pantera and Slayer the other day to my 12 year old granddaughter in my car. She got home and said to her mum that "Nan is THAT person you don't pick up on the side of the road, is she a serial killer? You should hear her music mum, it's NOTHING like tiktok!" My daughter laughed and told her the stuff she listens to is more corrosive than what Nan tunes out to!

@ocs robot. You clearly need to check Google. About original lineup. They were casted at big hits hit it casting. And until the official lineup was done 2012 there were members replace. Google it. Don't be lazy. And for sure you worship them. Otherwise you wouldn't defend a lie.
OCDRobot 3 years ago (edited)
You are a sad man. I don't worship anyone. I just don't feel the need to obsess about people I don't like. Which you apparently do. BTS has always performed as the same 7. There might have been changes before their debut. But they've always been the same 7 guys since they started putting music out. You're the one who need to learn how to use google. Also, your obsession with line up is weird when a ton of bands have changed out memebers. Hell, even Nirvana with Dave Grohl isn't their original lineup. I bet you won't freak out about that though, huh?

Uhhh this pandemic is proof we shouldn't shame people for calling in sick or with a sniffle. People should rest when they are sick. Life's too short to compromise health for work. The problem is people can't afford to take a break and the irony is it makes them worse workers not better

We get to an age when our bodies start to wear out and this is most of what makes me 'feel old' Some of it is nostalgia for the music of my youth but I truly believe that this generation is the best so far. They've been on the frontline during this pandemic and kept all of us safe, they haven't complained and they have stepped up and made things happen. Us 'oldies' should be more grateful..

I was about 30 years old when I discovered that you get to wait for about 3 seconds before you actually start to pee. Now I'm used to it.

Millennials are literally in their 30s to 20s overall. Lol they are not slowly turning middle age right now and are the definition of young adults.

I was offered the senior discount at the grocery store (pre pandemic, no mask) I was 35 at the time.

Guys, we've all become the people from that insurance commercial. You know, the ones that go to those classes that guy teaches, so they can learn how not to become their parents? Yeah, that's us!! 😭😂🤣😂🤣

I realized I had crossed over to the adult side when I saw two little kids playing leapfrog, and instead of thinking 'aww that looks like fun', I thought 'one of them will miss and land on the other kid, and then they'll start fighting'.

I work with kids and have to break up arguments, and have learned to intervene before they start to fight, but I didn't even know these kids.

Boomennials But yeah i like how it mostly turns out to recycle stuff, stop wasting food that would rather go to waste, and being aware of annoying stuff u used to do so u stop doing.

Omg I feel this! I find myself constantly grumbling about the "youth of today" who are all somehow stepping out on their own with no clue about living as an adult. They have no idea how to do housework, have terrible work ethics, and don't know how household bills work. Its so weird because I'm literally only in the late 20s and am talking about 17-22 year olds. Theres literally about a 10 year difference max.

My grown son has been sending me pictures of my "grand baby plants"! He is trying to grown his own garden for the first time.

And now the millennials who've spent the last decade blaming boomers for everything bad can listen to the Gen Zers and whoever comes after that blaming them for everything bad...

My retirement plan has always been to have a house with an attic, and to get an air rifle, then shoot at the gnome statues in my lawn the middle of the night while shouting "GET OFF MY LAWN!" Then I'll call the police the next morning to complain about the kids trashing my front yard again.
