I think millennials in the military had it first. The military couldn’t figure out why fighting pointless wars was causing more of their members to commit suicide.
In the eighties, there were a lot of news reports about the high and climbing rates of suicide in teens, whixh led to my original comment. After a little research, it turns out that Gen-X is having a suicide problem now.
So if both Gen-X and their kids (Gen-Z) are committing suicide now, is it really a generational thing, or is it just that today sucks really hard?
Gen-X here, can confirm. The World of Tomorrow is today, and it sucks hard. Every dystopian sci-fi of my youth is coming true. I am not sure I want to know what the future is going to look like.
Gen Y had suicide jokes for a while now with similar looks from boomers. Meme feels more like passing the torch to Gen Z as they’re starting to do it too.
Seems like bottom right should be genx rather than millennials but I guess we had emos so maybe that tracks
IIRC, Gen-X was the first generation in the US with a suicide epidemic.
EDIT: Nope. It’s officially Gen-Z’s title. Congrats?

Oh, it’s definitely that everything sucks.

Based on anecdotal evidence (aka the people I know including myself) millenials joking about suicide fits quite well.
