Plot twist: the ultimatum was about kicking their son out
My older brother is 28 and still with us… 🤷♂️
My mom said shit like: “[some random friend/relative] is only 21 and already graduated college and gotten married and have a kid (which means presumably they have their own separate house), why are y’all [directed at me and my older brother] such failures?”
(I’m Chinese American btw)
Just gesture vaguely to the world around you.
Mom: “I grew up with nothing, your grandparents didn’t give us anything, yet look at how much I’ve built [they have like a few hundred thousand to possibly 1 mill USD in assets], why can’t you do the same?”
And funny thing is she also admitted that luck is part of the equation, but then still shamed us anyways…
Like she often points to my cousin around my age that apprantly is doing some bussiness stuff overseas and made millions in profits…
And like
Oh this is funny:
“Look at NYC! An IMMIGRANT BECAME MAYOR! [she’s talking about Mamdani] You came here at 8 years old, why can’t you be just like him?”
😭
Idk mom, Mamdani’s mom seems nicer than you… maybe that’s why… lmfao
New Romanian Proverb: Britain is the land of opportunity, why even one of our locals Charlie, left this small Romanian village and now he’s the King of England!
I read somewhere that like 60 percent of adults under 30 still live with their parents. You should ask your mom how her generation screwed up everything for their kids.
Gonna point out this post is from over a decade ago
Things were still pretty bad back then, but people did still typically move out of their parents’ place at that point
Housing market be tough as fuk yo
That’s early for Spanish to move out
Boomers complaining about their kids not moving out like theyre not the ones responsible for this shitty housing market.
Nah, it’s billionaires. Silent gen billionaires, boomer billionaires, gen x billionaires, millenial billionaires. Billionaires all the way down.
But for a large part boomers buying in to the billionaires propaganda and voting in favor of the billionaires
