generation why bother

Lily: so i posted an article on the "generation why bother"and this girl is now telling me how i need to send that to her cousin because it is so pathetic that her couisn hates her job and won't quit because she just wants to keep her head down, collect her pay check and make ends meet...and how its so fucked up she doesn't care about succeeding anymore and has just given up...and i was like "you just described me. this is as successful as i'll ever get. i'm done. i just want to get out of debt. i no longer expect to be wealthy some day. or even comfortable. but i'll settle for not in the red."

Jacey: I am right there with you sister!

Lily: we are generation why bother. don't take risks. just be happy with the fact you have a job

Jacey: i feel like that's "generation accept your fate and stop indulging the fantasy that you are somehow special and destined for greatness."

Lily: you aren't going to be great. or special. or contribute in any meaningful way to humanity. you are not going to be in history books. or any books.

Jacey: unless you write one, which probably won't be published bc you're not as clever as your mom tells you you are.

Lily: right. also that takes time. which you don't have because you are too busy working and then drinking...or crying yourself to sleep on the couch...if you are lucky enough to have a couch.

Lily: unrelated. get draw something so we can draw hilarious things to each other all day long
