It was on a boy’s trip to Prague in 2019 that I caught the wind for the first time, something had gone seriously wrong with my generation.
Here we were, in the European capital of the drink and deer -dos, surrounded by clubs, beer rooms and partygoers of the continent, for the big last eruption for Uni.

Genzers may not have real, but their obsession with the Sitcom friends from the 90s shows that they crave normality and pleasure[/caption]

But the clock had just hit midnight when we called it one night, because the rest of them wanted to be a local gym in the morning.
That’s when I noticed – my generation is sewn.
Gen Z (born between 1997 and 2012) are seized by a trend that is more frightening than it has previously come. It is now cool to be boring.
We have replaced drinking, clubs and socializing by staying in, being obsessed with health and scrolling by brainless waste on our phones for hours in a row.
Lowered in the bunkers of normality, a few of our Genzers hold out against the attack of this Puritan “lifestyle” that attacks from all sides.
Sometimes it is enough to make me think that I am the one who is going crazy.
But the sinister truth is that this celebration of soulless life is the reason that the most social media obsessed generation is also the lonely generation.
Is it a miracle that studies show that one in five of the 18 to 24-year-olds has one or no good friends?
And is it really a surprise that my generation fights against record -high levels of depression and fear?
The online world has taken over real life with tragic consequences.
But gene z, foolish, patch it up and made it their new normal.
It has been well reported how many other people my age have become with drinks from love.
Reviewed by colleagues
Yesterday it was revealed that almost half of 18 to 34-year-olds have completely given up alcohol.
And thousands more have been felled enormously.
Clubs and pubs throughout the country bear the victim of the teetotalism of Gen Z.
We have to take the local place, touch the dance floor and stumble on our beds after getting a taxi we don’t even remember.
But now the industry is in a crisis, with around 11 clubs throughout the country that close every month between December 2023 and June 2024, according to the Night Time Industries Association.
It must be said that many clubs earn their fate, charge excessive prices for drinks, while it costs £ 20 to access a half -empty room with a “DJ” who plays a remix of Sweet Caroline who would even make the deaf to cover their ears.
But go one night that is busy, and everyone around you will stand still as a statue.
It is almost as if they are almost ashamed of dancing, too concerned to be assessed by their colleagues because they have encountered the herd.
They just don’t know how to get away, let go and not worry about what other people think of them.

Gen Z Scroll on their phones at Mindless Rapbish for hours in a row[/caption]
Ironically, everyone is too busy thinking about themselves to pay attention to someone else.
Even when Gen Z goes to the pub, they can’t help it, but make it a kind of trend – be that “the splitting of the g” (a pint Guinness down until it touches the G on the glass) or their set up of Their phones to take themselves who stood outside with a pint.
It’s just a bit fun, they can say – but is it really so nice not to be able to live in the moment?
Much of the decision of Gen Z to turn their backs on parties come from a new obsession with health.
It is always admirable to make an attempt to go to the gym and “clean life”.
But the tragedy is that the costs for Gen Z are the ability to enjoy a normal social life.

We are obsessed with self -love, at the expense of loving each other.
It is little surprise, mine is so boring when the new generation of celebrities does not know how to party himself.
It is certainly not difficult to find a sober star in Hollywood who has taken the other side of the lifestyle of sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ Roll.
But nowadays there are also not worth starting one.
Sydney Sweeney – although not completely sober – said: “I just identify myself as just a water person.”
The British actor John Boyega has spoken about how he is grateful not to be a party animal and avoid alcohol.
‘Clean Living’
Perhaps it is leading the beige load Molly-Mae Hague, who promotes ‘clean-living’ on social media and whose life neatly, polished and carefully arranged.
And coldplay – so awake, so green and so loved by Genzers – are so boring that I can’t even bother to talk about it.
But at least these stars come up and do something with their lives, in contrast to the brain-cast, telephone addicted genzers.
Health leaders and other modern Puritans will undoubtedly celebrate the fall of pleasure.
But this celebration will be out of place, because it is a symptom that shows that a fundamental part of our society has gone seriously wrong.
“Normalizing cancellation plans” is a sentence that is often trending on Tiktok, a confirmation that it is good to tell your friends that you cannot take the trouble to see them.

They have less sex than ever … But the use of porn is rising[/caption]
There is nothing wrong with wanting a quiet night in the occasional.
But why would you glorify and post online in an antisocial echo room, to get validation from a couple of other people who can’t bother to see their friends?
The most tragic enough, the fact that so many of my age feel the need to post these messages online to thousands, proves how desperate they are to feel a sense of connectedness.
But they are misled by thinking that they will get that from strangers on their phones.
Not that they ever answer their phone, if, horror of horrors, someone calls them.
A survey last year showed that a quarter of people from 18 to 34 never answer.
Slaves to apps
About 70 percent prefer text to a call, because they fear that the latter means bad news.
What is even more dangerous is how the failure of Gen Z to lead a normal social life, sucking them in supporting extremist ideologies and twisted crazy men such as Andrew Tate.
Without a doubt to believe everything they see online, now that more than half of my generation thinks the UK would be better off with a manager dictator.
Then there is the subject of sex. Gen Z, famous, have it much less than every generation that comes to them, as if this natural part of the human instinct has been cut from our brain.
But watching porn is Sky-Rocket, while notorious only fans favorites such as Bonnie Blue and Lily Phillips of sex have made a grotesque stunt for “entertainment”.
And now most people my age cannot even remember how to date in real life, instead they choose to become slaves for apps such as Tinder and Hingier who all suck out.
You just have to see how obsessed Gen Z is with the Sitcom -friends from the nineties to realize how much – despite my no -saying – my generation longs for normality and pleasure deep inside.
Here is a group of six people in the twenty, hanging out in real life and taking life as it comes without a concern in the world.
It is a stark contrast to the boring, lonely life of the young people who look at it.
So it’s time for my fellow people to take a deep breath and live a little.
Before they paint the whole world, their favorite shadow tint.
Pubs? It’s sober and out
Pubs: Beyond are the days of popping up to your local for a quick – at least for Gen Z.
No less than 43 percent of the 18 to 34-year-olds do not drink alcohol, while a quarter of more than 55s have given up alcohol.
Clubs: The British nightlife is in a crisis state.
About 11 clubs close every month and if things continue at the current rate, according to the Night Time Industries Association, there will no longer be left at the end of the decade.
Dictator-Cravers: A new study has shown that more than half of the Gen Z think that the country would be better off with a strong leader who “had no effort to make any trouble with parliament and elections,” while a third would rather give it if it army was in charge.
Health madness: More than 80 percent of gene exercise or go to the gym – an increase of 64 percent in 2021.
But it is a trend that both fuels – and is fed by – an increasing concern about the way young people look like, which is worried about the trend may not be that healthy.
Social media: Gen Z is the first generation that always grows up with a smartphone in their pocket – and many think they are the fault of the fact that a shocking one in three gene Zerse has reported mental health symptoms.
