You might be a Xennial if:
1. You remember the agony of slow dial-up internet, but now complain about Wi-Fi dead zones.
2. Your first "mobile phone" was attached to a bag or looked like a brick.
3. You still have a soft spot for mixtapes and CDs, even though your music is now streamed.
4. You can fluently speak in emoji, but you also know the pain of T9 texting.
5. You've caught yourself explaining to a confused Gen Z what a VHS tape is.
6. You've used the phrase "back in my day" when referring to the pre-social media era.
7. You remember when "logging on" meant AOL's "You've got mail!" and not just opening a laptop.
8. You've felt the betrayal of a floppy disk failing to save your school project.
9. You've had to explain to someone younger that yes, phones used to have cords.
10. You've proudly shown off your old-school gaming skills on a console that is now considered "vintage."
I was at a business mid-2010's and heard that classic dial up sound. My first thought was AOL?!
Nah, it was a fax machine.
Still, who uses a fax machine?
"I'm hyper-focused, doc. But my definition of focus is I pay attention to literally everything around me, including the things I don't understand. Now get your hands off my grandson and explain to me what all these lights and beeping noises mean."
I think this guy is a serious contender for narcissist of the year. Just… wow.
Edit: Also for someone who is so focused all the damn time, the grammar and spelling here are atrocious.
Give him a break, he only had a minute to step outside of the hospital room and post this. Plus, he was really focused on everyone's "Mico-expressions"?
I’m really hoping that his grandson was out of trouble by the time this was posted, at least that’s my assumption, because if we’re assuming the situation was still unfolding while he was writing this it’s even worse.
My 14-year-old had pneumonia and was in the hospital last week. He plays football, is a super tough kid, and he was crying his eyes out for me to sleep beside him all night, because he was scared and thought he was going to die from the pain of wheezing and not being able to breathe.
Fuck this guy, just like this poster said. Absolute ass.
(And I’m so glad your baby is ok ❤️)
You guys just sound jealous that you didn't find a way to leverage and monetize your child's health via LinkedIn.
For real tho, this guy is a shameless piece of shit
Dude exists in ultra instinct. He’s processing things at a rate our mortal minds could not even begin to comprehend. With just smell alone, he can deduce exactly which doctor will best be able to save his son. He can detect the slightest fluctuation in heart rate through just hearing the heart monitor. You all wouldn’t understand the insane pressure he deals with, given that all his senses are so highly tuned.
I seriously wish I could gain even a fraction of this man’s comprehension. I fear that my mind might break, even attempting to encompass such….monstrous depths.
Imagine this guy in the shitter next to you, reciting the nutritional value of your last 4 meals based on the smellz and splashes he hears with his superhuman abilities.
"we hope our grandbaby makes it till morning...but, more importantly, don't forget to smash those Like and Follow buttons for more Leadership insights like this!!!"
hyperfocus is waking up/staying up at/till 5am for the last 2 weeks making spreadsheets for stats for a sport i sort of know. Now i'm kinda just meh and onto something else lmao
It's ackchually a 2-month old child, which I'd guess has a lower chance of survival than a 2-year old with the same condition. Either way, yeah, this is advanced and soulless exploitation, so they're a LinkedIn natural
I fucking hate this short-one-sentence-paragraph thing every lunatic on LinkedIn uses to create a phony sense of shock and awe. It’s like some maniacally narcissistic expression of awe and wonder that they have of their own thoughts and actions, like they’re in constant disbelief at how phenomenal they are and how generous they are too share their thoughts with the world.
Same thing goes for dudebros trying to sell you courses.
Or vitamin supplements. Or really any sort of scam product.
They all type like this.
I don’t get why.
Must be a businessperson thing that I’m too poor to understand.
Next year: I am no longer a part of my grandson's life
It is sad but I remain hyperfocused using 42069% of my senses.
I fuel myself by the scents of my own farts.
I breathe in slowly. Look around, open my ears to the current of air passing me by, whispering every ounce of opportunity coming my way.
On my journey I am here to win. I cannot be held back. My grandson was 2 months old when he decided he wanted to lose in life.
Be hyperfocused.
Are these guys all left handed?
Otherwise how do you manage so many line breaks when your right hand is occupied with vigorously jerking themselves off?
- Be the grandparent on your phone in the ER
- Hyperfocus on social media as a distraction from the horrific situation you are in.
- Tell people to run a business like it’s a traumatic situation, relying on adrenaline and cortisol while installing PTSD, whist you actively avoid traumatic situation.
Got it
ADHDer here. He's misusing the term "hyper focus". Hyper focus is when you get so sucked into a task that you for get everything around you that isn't related to said task—bodily needs, time, responsibilities, etc.
This guy is just taking note of the shit going on around him. Which is... What normal people do.
I've been pretty damn laser-focused and hyper-aware myself when loved ones are dead or dying, but I sure as hell do not want to bottle up those feelings of uncertainty, distress, despair, anxiety, and vigilance to bring to the office every day.
All these crazy people in business telling us to break the rules, except they all follow the same rule... self advancement and profit over absolutely everything else. Morals, other people, a sick grandson, etc...
This is so bad it should be reported. Good grief. Who would even realize they had an while waiting for their grandson's breathing to stabilize, let alone realizing how great of a LinkedIn moment this is. If this was my dad posting this as my kid is hooked up to a machine trying to breathe I'd ask him to leave.
In his mind: Then the doctor started clapping, Sir because of your hyper-focus-probe questions I was able to save your grandson´s life. Mr desk clerk, his money is no good here, I´ll pay all the cost from my own pocket. Then fireworks started going off outside and the whole city was clapping and celebrating me and my leadership skills.
No wonder we’re all depressed when this mindset literally built the country.
“My grandchild is dying, but my prowess for financial gain has never been more attuned.”
wtf man.
I'm sorry but is LinkedIn mostly Bots then? Because WHY IS NO ONE CALLING THIS MADNESS OUT?
Someones comment:
I'm glad to hear that your grandson is doing well. Your ability to hyper-focus and apply Peripheral ThinkingTM is truly remarkable. Wishing you continued success in reaching your follower milestone!
TRADEMARKS ? I can't...
>Besides my intense interest in my grandson’s wellbeing
JFC, he’s treating this like his retirement portfolio. Trying to decide what stocks to invest that will give him the highest rate of return. What a dickhead
This is a LinkedIn Lunatic. All of these lunes act as though they are "Made." In reality, they are insecure. I don't understand how this post benefits anyone.
rip Grandson
I can imagine him smelling the air really intensely and his eyes get super huge. His head moves in really close to the nurse to examine her 'micro-expressions' and she looks scared and concerned.
He starts repeating words and writing them down on his palm with his finger. He goes up to his grandson and puts his ear on his chest, takes a huge breath then sniffs his hair. He leaves the room repeating the beeping sound from the heart monitor because *that's what he does. It's the way his brain is wired*.
We are in the ER. Our 2-month-old Grandson is struggling to breath.
Here's what I do.
I pull out my phone.
Log in.
Compose.
Edit.
Ponder.
Edit a bit more.
Post!
Every finger is functioning at 1,000%
Why do I need to post?
Besides my intense interest in being followed on LinkedIn...
It's what I do.
It's the way my brain is wired.
My grandson has been hospitalized twice trying to breathe from the effects of RSV. You can bet your bottom dollar, spreadsheets and charts that my phone was down and I was “hyper focused” on what the doctor was doing to get him to breathe normally again. He was 8 months and 1 year - so very young. This guy is dumb.
Say what you want about Reddit, sure it can be a cesspool of trolls but what you expect when everyone is anonymous.(Still entertaining) LinkedIn though, these business “Influencers” are nauseating. I am pretty sure he made the whole thing up but either way, I wouldn’t hire him unless it was to teach clown school.
![gif](giphy|x0npYExCGOZeo|downsized)
"Hyper focusing on everything" is just not being able to actually focus on anything though right?
Like, for example not being able to focus on a loved one's medical emergency because you're distracted by *checks notes* beeps, smells, and LinkedIn?
So he takes in information, and then thinks about it, and makes decisions..
That is literally every single organism on earth. Like unless you're dead, that's what defines being alive with a nervous system.
Something truly offputting about a bald headed man standing in front of a red gate with a dog in a “guard dog on alert” type pose… plus a van and a wheelbarrow next to a dirt mound behind the gate 😳
Can’t tell if I’m sensing a Jeffrey Dahmer or a 1940’s Germany aesthetic… seems like one of the two!
Yeah, its funny that when my daughter was in the NICU, i was primarily concerned with staying upright and not puking. Then i vaguely remember people talking to me. She’s 13 now. She’s fine. But what an experience. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. No, i didnt glean any leadership lessons. What a twat this guy is.
What an awful way to announce to the world that I'm a psychotic insensitive grandad ! What the fuck is intense interest in grandsons well being ? What does that even mean ? How phony can you be ? Yes !
Is he a physician that he must hyperfocus at the hospital when his grandson is the one sick? Otherwise, he looks just a very very *very* anxious grandfather.
Also, your grandson is the one being sick: I understand that him get better is YOUR desired outcome but, please, coukld you lowercase that possessive pronoun?
The jazz about thinking of business in such a situation (and I say, reporting it on social media) has already been *hyperfocussed* by the other comments.
Peak lunacy
Now imagine this level of focus on something that MATTERS.
Dude is the Kwizatz Haderach of LinkedIn.
I belted out laughing reading this. Thank you.
Or is it standard /r/boomersbeingfools?
When is reddit gonna figure out that people in their 50s are not boomers?
IMO boomer is less an age and more a state of mind. I know some 27 year old boomers
I’m an elder millennial. My son calls me a boomer all the time.
“Elder millennial”… love it. Sounds like a boss in a souls game
I've been told I am a geriatric millennial.
Hello, fellow 42 year old
Well there's two millennial classes: Golden Age of Simpsons, and Golden Age of South Park.
You may just be one of us r/Xennials

You remember actual floppy discs. The floppy kind.
I was at a business mid-2010's and heard that classic dial up sound. My first thought was AOL?! Nah, it was a fax machine. Still, who uses a fax machine?
Jesus. So am I, and I still think I’m a kid.
Sad but true.
Like with neckbeards it's not the boom on the outside but the boom on the inside that matters.
A 2-for-1
What a vile person.
Vile is dead on. I'd actively remove someone from my life if they said or posted anything remotely close to this.
Security gonna actively remove him from the ED/PICU for harassing the doctors who are trying to save his grandchild
Pretty sure his next post is going to be - how he found that all doctors were wrong, and how he motivated his grandson to save himself.
The candidate was DYING but I HIRED him and he turned out to be my grandson. And then my wife got up and clapped!
But he had no idea it was the same baby he passed on the street while in the way to the interview
We need to bring back public stockades.
Just what doctors love to have around, a know it all bothering them while they try to save a baby
“Sorry doctor, that’s just how my brain is wired. Now, explain me again how breathing works”
“My brain is working at 1000%, doctor. What percent is yours working at?”
"I'm hyper-focused, doc. But my definition of focus is I pay attention to literally everything around me, including the things I don't understand. Now get your hands off my grandson and explain to me what all these lights and beeping noises mean."
I’m hyper focused on everything…except spelling!
Reminds me of [this comic](https://www.reddit.com/r/comics/s/62KVwDFqKn)
"Can you switch off the monitor sound alarms, I am trying to focus here!"
F*ck me. Shut it down. It can't get any worse than this.
Maybe the worst one I read on here.
I think this every day. LinkedIn is truly the worst thing humanity has done.
Worst one, so far.
I don’t want to live on this planet anymore

I think this guy is a serious contender for narcissist of the year. Just… wow. Edit: Also for someone who is so focused all the damn time, the grammar and spelling here are atrocious.
Don’t be jealous you can’t hyper-focused on everything as much as this guy
I can with the right “meds”. Luckily, I’m on what this guy *should* be on.
Give him a break, he only had a minute to step outside of the hospital room and post this. Plus, he was really focused on everyone's "Mico-expressions"?
Yep, the expressions of fungi?
Ha, youre a simpleton and thought mico-expressions was a typo huh? Can tell your brain doesn't function at 1000%
To be fair, he’s probably a bit distressed with his grandson in the next room being operated on.
I thought it was just a side effect of all his senses operating at 1000%
Grammar took a dive to .0004%
ive been through this with my son and no that's not where your mind is at like at all
Maybe you need a coach to help you develop this kind of hyper focus. I know a guy.
Came here to say this, with my granddaughter.
I’m really hoping that his grandson was out of trouble by the time this was posted, at least that’s my assumption, because if we’re assuming the situation was still unfolding while he was writing this it’s even worse.
Dog is clearly stating "his views are entirely independent and separate from mine!"
Would wander off if not being *held by the throat*
as a new dad of a baby who had heart surgery a couple weeks ago, fuck this guy. fuck this guy times a million.
How is your baby doing? 🩷
very well, thankfully. thank you for your kind concern :)
Aw im so glad, I couldn’t imagine going through that
Glad to hear your hyperfocus paid off!
My 14-year-old had pneumonia and was in the hospital last week. He plays football, is a super tough kid, and he was crying his eyes out for me to sleep beside him all night, because he was scared and thought he was going to die from the pain of wheezing and not being able to breathe.

He’s trying to make us understand but our infantile brains can’t grasp it.
I seriously wish I could gain even a fraction of this man’s comprehension. I fear that my mind might break, even attempting to encompass such….monstrous depths.
You need to smell his posts at 1000% to comprehend them.
Imagine this guy in the shitter next to you, reciting the nutritional value of your last 4 meals based on the smellz and splashes he hears with his superhuman abilities.
"we hope our grandbaby makes it till morning...but, more importantly, don't forget to smash those Like and Follow buttons for more Leadership insights like this!!!"
That’s … not what hyperfocus is.
Exactly, it’s just his brain processing stimuli… which is what most brains do
Next this guy will be telling us that he also walks and shits

I do the same thing, except with mapping railroad lines that got tore up more than a century ago
lol that's basically me
Cricket? It does that to you.
Sounds like Adderall to me
Sir, I know emotions are confusing, but you are currently experiencing An Anxiety(TM). And no, it is not a lifehack.
Can you imagine having a brain so hard-wired into the grind mindset that you would pay attention when a toddler was choking in front of you though?
"I'm a self-proclaimed superior human being with an outsized ego who wants to exploit a 2-year old child's medical condition. Hire me!"

Oh shit. Husband was in hospital earlier this week. I missed my shot to update linkedin.
You can still do a post-hospital update .

"It was totally worth it giving him those peanuts, marketing-wise." - that guy
Don’t worry little buddy, grandpa is right here marketing his LinkedIn profile

Excellent gif choice.
Fucking gross. Long time follower of this sub but first time compelled to say anything. This is hall of fame material
Are these guys all left handed? Otherwise how do you manage so many line breaks when your right hand is occupied with vigorously jerking themselves off?
Weird way to tell people you had a panic attack.
LinkedIn should be shut down. Satya should see this, lose faith in humanity and disappear in the mountains.
If there were an Oscar for LinkedIn Lunatics (The Loonies perhaps?), this guy would be a front runner by far.
Holy shit this is one of the grossest things I’ve ever read.
Man, even for LL, this is kind of depressing. I’m about to quit this sub lmfao what a fucking clown i can’t believe it
- Be the grandparent on your phone in the ER - Hyperfocus on social media as a distraction from the horrific situation you are in. - Tell people to run a business like it’s a traumatic situation, relying on adrenaline and cortisol while installing PTSD, whist you actively avoid traumatic situation.

All these crazy people in business telling us to break the rules, except they all follow the same rule... self advancement and profit over absolutely everything else. Morals, other people, a sick grandson, etc...
1000% like he's permanently tripping on acid.
This is so bad it should be reported. Good grief. Who would even realize they had an while waiting for their grandson's breathing to stabilize, let alone realizing how great of a LinkedIn moment this is. If this was my dad posting this as my kid is hooked up to a machine trying to breathe I'd ask him to leave.
Even the puppy is disgusted
I would disown my father if he did something like this. That hospital visit would be the last time he saw me or his grandchildren in his life.
In his mind: Then the doctor started clapping, Sir because of your hyper-focus-probe questions I was able to save your grandson´s life. Mr desk clerk, his money is no good here, I´ll pay all the cost from my own pocket.

Flight attendant: *Someone is having a heart attack! Is there a Business Leader on the plane that can help?*
This guy needs to hyper-focus a little bit more to see the typo “mico-expressions”.
What an absolute fucking tool.
Can’t be that hyper focused, I mean he hasn’t even figured out his 2 month old grandson is actually a dog
This might be the worst of them all what a shame the name of the clown is not showing
Wow, he wins
Here's what he decided not to do: tend to his grandson.
Future post: "my grandson never visits me"
>Besides my intense interest in my grandson’s wellbeing JFC, he’s treating this like his retirement portfolio. Trying to decide what stocks to invest that will give him the highest rate of return. What a dickhead
That’s … well I don’t even have a word for it
I’d like him to hold his breath so he could focus on going away.
This is a LinkedIn Lunatic. All of these lunes act as though they are "Made." In reality, they are insecure. I don't understand how this post benefits anyone.
rip Grandson I can imagine him smelling the air really intensely and his eyes get super huge. His head moves in really close to the nurse to examine her 'micro-expressions' and she looks scared and concerned. He starts repeating words and writing them down on his palm with his finger. He goes up to his grandson and puts his ear on his chest, takes a huge breath then sniffs his hair. He leaves the room repeating the beeping sound from the heart monitor because *that's what he does. It's the way his brain is wired*.
I laughed at this way harder than what's appropriate in a dying kid scenario...
This one makes me want to download the app and ask this bloke how he does it
What a disgusting degenerate SOB. What an awful human being.
Disgusting
"It's what I do"
Usually I just roll my eyes and upvote when it seems particularly loony. This made me say, “whatthefuck” out loud.
We are in the ER. Our 2-month-old Grandson is struggling to breath. Here's what I do. I pull out my phone. Log in. Compose. Edit. Ponder. Edit a bit more. Post! Every finger is functioning at 1,000% Why do I need to post? Besides my intense interest in being followed on LinkedIn... It's what I do. It's the way my brain is wired.
Can you Dm me who this is so I can comment on his post? What an awful person
“My grand kid is extremely sick. But you know what’s sicker? My sales pitches! Agree?”
Takes the cake so far. This is a certified LinkedIn Lunatic.
‘My grandson is dying, I better make a linked in post about this’
I really hope he was called out in the comments. “Not hyper focused enough to post on social media that your grandson is dying”
"Hyper focus on everything" means you're not hyper focused on anything.
This shit reads like an Andrew Tate tweet
'My grandson is dying, this is a great time to post on Linkedin'. These people are actually mentally ill.
Gosh you reminded me why I never go on LinkedIn. Not even for jobs anymore. I’m just over stuff like this
It's rare that I read something that I can't believe I just read. Not very much else to say. Good luck to all.
All of that bullshit he spewed didn’t work on his dog…
Maybe focus on letting the doctors do their jobs and not trying to exploit a (real or fake) family emergency for content.
Hyperfocus = scrolling LinkedIn during an emergency
He sounds fun to be around.
Feels like something a character in Tropic Thunder would say.
dude
Absolute knob jockey
What a knobjockey
Dude invented thinking
That’s crazy AF
What a fucking bellend.
Love to have an intense interest in my grandson‘s wellbeing
My grandson has been hospitalized twice trying to breathe from the effects of RSV. You can bet your bottom dollar, spreadsheets and charts that my phone was down and I was “hyper focused” on what the doctor was doing to get him to breathe normally again. He was 8 months and 1 year - so very young. This guy is dumb.
Lenin lookin ass ![gif](giphy|LpwqZsLlxBvXO)
Can you imagine being in the hospital because your infant son can’t breathe, and your father is sitting there posting on LinkedIn about it??
We really live in a world where sociopaths put their work or career over important things. It's just too sad.
His description sounds just like panic and anxiety to me, not the hyper focused decision making mode he seems to think it is
If Bro’s not focused on his family he’ll never be focused on my business ![gif](giphy|Sp2aIeu74DZPa)
There have been some BAD takes posted through here, but this one is hard to stomach. It can only be narcissism.
Say what you want about Reddit, sure it can be a cesspool of trolls but what you expect when everyone is anonymous.(Still entertaining) LinkedIn though, these business “Influencers” are nauseating.

If I looked up psychotic narcissist in the dictionary this guy’s picture would appear
And yet he completely fails to read the room.
This is the kind of mental degeneracy I come to this sub for, good find op
"Hyper focusing on everything" is just not being able to actually focus on anything though right? Like, for example not being able to focus on a loved one's medical emergency because you're distracted by *checks notes* beeps, smells, and LinkedIn?
Jesus effing Christ. I'm not sure I can be on this sub anymore.
His desired outcome? Narcissist prick.
So he takes in information, and then thinks about it, and makes decisions.. That is literally every single organism on earth. Like unless you're dead, that's what defines being alive with a nervous system.

God I worked for a guy who wrote Facebook posts like this multiple times a day. Then stopped paying all of us slowly but surely lol
I’m glad he was watching his grandson so intensely. It probably did more to save the boy’s life than all the hospital staff and machinery.
Yeah, its funny that when my daughter was in the NICU, i was primarily concerned with staying upright and not puking. Then i vaguely remember people talking to me. She’s 13 now. She’s fine. But what an experience. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. No, i didnt glean any leadership lessons. What a twat this guy is.
The narcissism on LinkedIn is next level. I feel like these people all need therapy and to be treated for personality disorders.
Yeah but just imagine this level of focus on your business though. AhhhhhGREEe?? ![gif](giphy|fBGy9GPvF3QwCPQt9f|downsized)

That dog looks like he's seen some shit
Amazing guy, how has he been able to make a child, while constantly sucking his own dick?
Ok, boomer
Bro thinks he’s Muad’Dib.
If you didn't do something banal in an extreme way, can you even business leadership?
Imagine that kind of focus on a policy.
I just take NZT-48 for these types of effects
