First of all, many millennials have been going through a continuous early midlife crisis ever since their early 20s.
Second, in my experience, only the parts about drugs and irony are accurate. And maybe the Hawaiian shirts, but that’s mostly only for fat guys.
I bought a Hawaiian shirt as a joke for an outdoor party.
I now own about 7. They're light and breathable and look cool.
Wait, what's wrong with loud loose fitting floral print shirts? It's fucking hot out and only getting hotter. Better than some t-shirt and not totally giving up like a polo shirt. I've been wearing them unironically ever since dial-up internet and ska were still super popular. Never noticed any relative weight difference in other people wearing them.
Nothing wrong with them, it’s just that I have never met someone who wore them and wasn’t fat. That might just be my particular experience however.
It also doesn’t mean they’re bad people. The one particular guy I can think about who loves to wear them is otherwise an all around great dude and a very talented hobby DJ who throws great parties, often at his own expense. The Hawaii shirt is basically part of his brand.
I used to wear them when I was 25.
Now, just 15 years later, I'm fat.
Should've known...
Seriously? The exact look described in this meme is super popular. At least, it is here in the UK. It's what hipsters evolved into, I think.
I don’t live in the UK, and I don’t go out very much 🤷🏻♂️
