I'm an older dude, I can't hardly stand being near a fucking teenager, much less want to have sex with one, they're annoying as hell. What the fuck is wrong with some people.

I mean you could maybe try being a compassionate adult around them. Attidudes like this are what contribute to poor inter-generational relationships. It's why boomers blame everything on millenials and why millenials just respond with "ok boomer". Teenagers are people, their brains are developing, some are figuring out their shit, some never will bother to. And they will become older folks who are people just the same. So it behoves us to try being a positive influence around them rather than trying to fuck them.

I mean, as a 45 year old man... I can be compassionate, but let's be real teenagers are annoying as shit.

This isn't some generational thing, we where just as annoying as that age.

It comes with being immature and unsure of who you are.

You'll grow out of it too.

Youth is wasted on the young.

Yeah I wasn't disagreeing. Teenagers are indeed annoying as shit. They're also bright, depressed, confused, fired up, determined, lost, immature, too mature, and on and on. None of this negates the importance us adults having the maturity to not dwell on our bitterness or frustration over youth and focus on being a positive influence when we have the opportunity.
