Because it will cost them a day’s wage.
I’m a millenial but on the very rare occassion that I go to the pub with a group, I hate buying rounds. Not because of cost, but because I’m a slow drinker and everyone is finished by the time I’ve drunk half a pint. Let me just enjoy my own drink at a pace I want to drink it.
Xer but yeah I agree. Its popular with the friends who want all their friends plastered. I have a budget when I go out. If you want to do the rounds thing then im going to have to go home early.
Don’t worry guys. Farrage says he will take 5p of a pint!
As I read it, it basically comes off as the author being grumpy that it’s harder to sponge off people who drink less, or slower.
I will do reciprocal drink buying, but hate formalising into “rounds”. My drinking rate can vary wildly. I don’t want to be forced to drink faster, to keep up with others.
Gen Z is the most financially squeezed age group in my memory. The fact they want to be more discerning in how much they drink and pay makes complete sense.
It’s also worth noting that contactless card machines also remove a major bottleneck in going to the bar.
BECAUSE THEY DON’T HAVE ANY FUCKING MONEY. WHY YHE FUCK DO YOH KEEP ASKING “WHY AREN’T GEN Z…” WHEN THE ANSWER IS ALMOST ALWAYS MONEY! IT’S NOT A FUCKING MYSTERY YOU TRANSPHOBIC SHITLIBS.
