Not sure. I always did stupid stuff when I was kid and later teen, I was up for everything, I don't know what changed but I got more careful (coward-ish) later in life. I don't have this mentality of looking back and regretting something, like it would be daily bread for me. Anything that happened is behind me and if I hurt someone I try to sort it out. I dodged few really shitty things for which I could end up dead or in jail and I'm really grateful for the experience.
I really regret breaking hearts of few people though, because I couldn't be what they wanted me to be, because I maybe gave them wrong signals consciously knowing it will never work but I desired feeling loved somewhere down in my tar filled soul, so I kept pulling them into love I never wanted to give back. That's something I keep thinking about from time to time. I even spoke with my ex (after 2+ years) beyond replying with shrek cringe compilation meme, funnily enough, we explained everything to each other, closed it up, friendship was expected from me and I got exhausted reading about how is life not good even though I was the one who got dumped, so situation ended up with ghosting from my side. That was sort of lucky I guess. Often you don't have this opportunity to say sorry, to speak about issues with some distance and more maturity. And it truly bothers me, like that time when my good friend told me about loving me and I couldn't say it back. It feels like you stab someone to chest but it's kind of not your fault, I don't know.

I feel you. Grew up poorfag, always felt bad that I could not have the toys my cousins had.
Then you grow up, have enough money but the junk does not make you feel anything anymore. Selling my vidya collection atm
>that feel when has monies but wants nothing to buy with it and the only thing you desire is a work of fiction
For me it is not even anti consumerist. Before I buy something. I always ask myself "why would I need this"?
<lack of experience has left me with the social skills of a 12-year-old
I always say my emotional development stopped after 5th grade. This is when I came to junior high and I did not understand the world anymore. In elementary everyone was good with each other. In junior high it was cliques and who is cool, who is not, who is best music DJ Khaled and what is best clothes. What is in, what is out. I never understood that competitive crap and just opted out of it completely.

If either of you lads like vidya at all anymore maybe the retro game community could be place to start? I'm poorfag too but ps2 games are dirt fucking cheap at Half Price Books and the like. I've been playing through old stuff for a few hours a week I always wanted to as a kid but couldn't afford over the past few months. The Chronicles of Riddick and old Hitman games are fun.

I regret not experiencing enough of the 00s internet. The most I really did was spend the latter half of the decade on imageboards and take part in raids, and you know what kind of attention those things brought over. Before finding 4chan I didn't know anything about the internet, only spending time on a generic teenagers' forum where I never fit in, so when I learned about all these other sites through /b/ they were shown in a negative light, conditioning me to hate them. I guess I took that rule "if you enjoy any rival sites, DON'T" too seriously.
Because of that, I missed out on a lot of online experiences because I would always find some reason to think "wow this site is full of faggots" every time I saw some place that wasn't an imageboard. And even if it did interest me, I still wouldn't be able to do much since the computer I had back then was a toaster that came out when I was 6, and I never could get a new one until I turned 18. Right after the 00s ended and this helldecade began.
All this makes me wonder how I would be if I had ended up, say, a gaiafag or a furry or something rather than an anon who can't quit imageboards. I'd definitely be a lot more insufferable, but I'd probably be happier and might have had friends in my youth.

The internet started to suck around 2006 or so, I missed on the old west days of the late 90s and early 00s because I was too young and back then you had to know your shit, no fucking handholding, no youtube tutorials, and computers were more expensive, only richfags had broadband. I agree that normalfag sites were less cancerous back in the late 00s but it was already a shit time because normalfags with smartphones were started to pour in. The worse was when b-list celebs like that ashton kutcher joined twitter, thats what broke the levees and brought a tidal wave of the normiest of normalfags to the interwebs. That was truly the beginning of the end because sites now had to normalfaggotisize to accommodate their new high-profile users.

Because you millenials are total losers. You have not done a single thing as a generation. No great literature, no great art, no great cinema, not even any great vidya. If anything, boomers were right: you DID ruin everything because you're so bummed out about ADULTING and AGING that literally all media nowadays has to remind you of the childhood you wish you could recapture while the rest of us non-millenials (Gen-X here) have to watch how you bitch like children when even it's not good enough anymore. Say what you want about boomers, but at least when they marched at Kent State and the Sorbonne, they didn't get scared over "deplatforming" or clinging onto obsolete, glorified quarantine forums like imageboards. Even fucking zoomers marched on the streets. But all millenialoids can do is whine that their Netflix ain't working. How else are they supposed to chill with their own hands?

Even in middle school they'll take the old man.
Women are disciples of status quo and unfortunately, men are exalted for their age rather than their virtues.
Women are exalted for their youth, rather than abilities.
Age = "maturity/worldiness"
Youth = "docility/freshness"
I put those in quotation marks bc they're not really true but it's all about aesthetics.

One could easily say the same about you. Calling yourself a "doomer" because you're fragile as fuck and can't cope, 'cause you hate society because your deadbeat parents couldn't raise you right. Forget white fragility, the REAL problem is MILLENIAL fragility. That's why chumps like >>29066 immediately leap to ZOOMER1111!!! when you call them out on it. Also, get a life? Rich coming from a guy on a board dedicated to losers with no life other than NEETing it up 'cause adulting was just TOO HARD. Boo hoo hoo. Your soft elitism (muh normies) isn't gonna get you anywhere. I can't wait till 2050 when millenials kill themselves en masse because they wasted their prime years on this SJW/incel/doomer/bloomer nonsense. Hence my original postL

Look at all these cartoons out nowadays like Steven Universe and She-Ra, little kids ain't watching that shit. Little kids are watching anal sex scenes in GTA 5 and watching IRL streamers act like total clowns. They aren't sperging out over muh SJWs, muh TERFs, etc like millenialoids do.

It doesn't matter who I am, it's what I say that does. I'm dropping that real shit, none of that childish red/blue pill nonsense that millenialoids cling to to feel important. It's their surrogate participation ribbon. Fuckers can't function unless you tell them how special they are for recognizing the most mundane aspects of life as "red pilled" - they preach to the choir and expect to be christened Messiah.

I wouldn't say zoomerpilled. I'm Gen-X, actually. I call shit out as I see it. Boomers? There's a reason that they're called the "Me Generation", in that they were completely selfish. They wrecked shit because shit was in the way of what they wanted, without any thought or care for the future. That's something a lot of these people told me growing up, "You young kids think you're immortal, you think nothing's ever going to happen to you, just you wait, etc."
I now realize that they were speaking from experience. That doesn't change the fact that it was FUCKING ANNOYING.
Carlin said it best: "If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you're gonna get selfish, ignorant leaders." Lookit the last thirty or so years. Nowadays, we're left with their spawn, the millenials, what should be called the "'Look at Me' Generation", due to their disgusting self-worship. Everybody (at least in westernized countries, go figure) is being a complete jackass for no better reason than to bring attention to themselves. Millenials and Boomers are both sides of the same coin tbh. Both are entitled and think the world must go around their whims, and if not, then temper tantrums will solve the day!
I don't hate boomers, though. I mean, they'll all be dead soon I'm bored of hating them. They're too weak and feeble. You can kick out their walkers from under them and laugh at them as they flail around on the ground.
I'm hating millennials a lot more because when I'm one of those senile cocksuckers myself I will still have to deal with them. Unlike boomers, I won't get to see them all die and applaud every funeral.
