The lasting harm of childhood lead exposure on Gen X

Does this explain their idiocy?

Has all that lead finally come home to roost?

Teacake! I mean, I Hate Gen X Troll!

Do you have a better explanation for Gen X now being worst than Boomers r1?

Do you have some Nalaxone handy in case you OD šŸ˜˜?

What's wrong, R3?

GenX loves to talk shit. They never waste an opportunity to trash Boomers, Millennials, everybody else. And now somebody is calling you out on actual facts and you widdle feelings can't handle it?

Some of us are just trying to understand what makes your generation so retarded?

I dont have time to read the article, but lead was introduced to gasoline in the 1920s. Seems like there's some confound.

Poor Teacake. His latest alias was so ill conceived and Janbot-like that heā€™s seething that it has not been well received.

Back to the drawing board šŸ˜¢

Lead exposure in the last 50 or so years was in the inner cities so it was mostly ghetto blacks who were affected. Hence, Teacake.

by Anonymousreply 10November 9, 2024 11:25 PM

What's a little lead when you could still have a vigorous, normal, fun, socialized, wondrous, adventurous, and hope-filled childhood? I wouldn't trade it, friend.

Poor you, R7. You honestly think there is only person rightfully hating on Gen X right now?

It's all over Tik Tok, Reddit, X, Facebook right now. And you deserve it.

One More thing, R11. Gen X are obsessed with still being the "coolRoman's.

Nevermind that you haven't been kids for well over 30 years and there is absolutely nothing cool about you or your politicians or your Elon Musks and Joe Rogans and every horrible MAGAt posting on FB.

by Anonymousreply 23November 9, 2024 11:59 PM

Millennials are now also middle aged you fuckwit.

by Anonymousreply 24November 10, 2024 12:04 AM

And what does hating on Gen X accomplish? Nothing. They're not going away. You're just screaming into the void. Try to do something constructive with your time. Like going to rehab and getting mental health treatment. Fucking loser.

by Anonymousreply 25November 10, 2024 12:05 AM

But we didn't skew for Trump at all, much less at the astonishing rate you did, R24.

How can you be worse than 70 year olds?

by Anonymousreply 26November 10, 2024 12:13 AM

R25 If heaven forbid Millennials were the ones who went all out for Trump, Gen X would never let us hear the end of it.

1. Those color-washed poloroids? They werenā€™t color-washed. The sky was orange.

2. The perpetually pissed parent asexemplified by Redd Foreman on ā€œThat 70s Showā€. They were everywhere and they hated prissy children!

3. We were presented with capital to worship - this one is difficult. Instead of people using hard work, we were presented with people who possessed cool things. So, we had the Banana Splits with cool cars, Knight Rider with an AI vehicle, Hart To Hart with two millionaires who had time to solve crime.

So far, R30, I am not seeing any adult discussion about the article but I am seeing lots of playground insults.

I guess the article is right? You did all lose like 10 IQ points and it is getting worse as you age.

Iā€™m not sure where youā€™re getting this shit from. I was born in ā€˜81 and right on the Gen X/Millennial line. All my friends are a few years older than me and Gen X. We are all Democrats.

by Anonymousreply 38November 10, 2024 4:04 AM

Read it and weep, R38.

I'm amazed at how many excuses Gen X can cook up. That seems like the behavior expected from Gen Z, not AARP adults.

Gen Z and Millennials aren't significantly lower, percentage-wise, from Gen X when it comes to voting Republican.

by Anonymousreply 40November 10, 2024 4:35 AM

And yet somehow, R40, Gen X is still the worst.

Gen X are more terrible than the 65+ Baby Boomers and Silent Generation. How?

by Anonymousreply 41November 10, 2024 4:38 AM

Everybody has been hating on the Baby Boomers for eight years for giving us Trump. And now that this election has happened and we have actual cold data about Gen X somehow we are not allowed to comment on it? They think they're above reproach?

No, R44. I'd like to discuss why that generation is so fucked up and I'd like for them to receive the credit and attention that they deserve for Trump.

r45 I guess you'll be waiting a long time because nobody really cares. Put down the crack pipe and go to bed.

Apparently you care, R46, because you are all over this thread.

I don't really give a fuck if you don't want Gen X to be called out for something that they actually did. Because you will be. Just like how Baby Boomers have been maligned for years for their greed and politics, now it's your turn to get it.

by Anonymousreply 47November 10, 2024 5:23 AM

Hey Teacake nobody's going to engage in a discussion with you. You're a drug addled lunatic. We hate you. Go to another forum. Have you noticed in every single thread you post in nobody takes you seriously and just talks shit at you? Take a hint. Go the fuck away.
