At first I was like a cocktail and a vibrator. Then looked at the previous panels and it's actually microphone... Maybe..
It's true, I'm saving for retirement, but I sure as shit am not expecting it to exist when I get there.
Look at this guy, thinking he will be able to retire.
I'm saving for 'retirement' so that when the end is imminent I can loot the savings for one last fling.
I get so confused with people portraying Gen Z as these radical socialists when time after time voting shows they are anything but. Especially Gen Z men as a group are extremely conservative. At least in the US.
- Ages 18-24: 44% for Trump, 54% for Harris
- Ages 25-29: 52% for Trump, 48% for Harris
- Ages 30-44: 52% for Trump
- Ages 45-64: 56% for Trump
- Ages 65 and older: 61% for Trump

More conservative than in the past, but so is the whole country (by votes- most Americans don't vote). Compared to other age groups though, gen z voted less conservative (unless you consider that Harris is basically a conservative)
Keep in mind that those numbers are always going to be off from reality. Also it will vary heavily by state.
I didn't mean to imply that Gen Z is less conservative than older generations. A pretty low bar to pass under lol
Ah, oki

Might be the “horseshoe effect” where they (ultimately) converge on a few things. Change the tshirt, and that would fit trumpy gen z too.
I don't believe authoritarians of different feathers flock together, but that doesn't mean I'm right.

I do enjoy how GenX doesn't appear at all. Very appropriate.
We've been around for like sixty years now. If we were milk we would have developed culture. But we're not so we didn't.

Shh! We don’t want them to notice us.
Gen X had it's Part in Memes and grew up. Like tech savvy boomers, Generation X seems predominantly stuck in the middle tier of the career ladder, overshadowed by their Boomer parents. However, they maintain a benevolent and generous attitude toward younger generations. They are fully aware that they will likely never own property, and having children is a significant risk. This painful realization hit them some time ago, hence their sense of empathy. The later you're born, the more pain you inherit.

I am a middle child in the generational equivalent of a middle child.
We are too busy getting shit done to worry about the idiots.
After trying and failing to reach them for comment, we finally heard from them. They just told us "whatever, man."

I see GenX didn't answer. Typical slackers
Can't answer when we were forgotten about again. IF we had been asked we would have replied, "meh, whatever."

Nobody asked us!
I didn't get the fax either, maybe it went to my pager
I worked at a Kinkos (a small printing and office supply shop) around 1999 and so many people set their faxes to the main stoore number instead of the fax number
Me: Hello, Kinko's.
Phone: short pause [hellish screetching noises]
