Millennial was a pretty cool name for a generation descriptor but it does not accurately describe the generation from 1982-2002.

I'm thinking the "participation trophy generation", "snowflake generation", "straight outta momma's basement generation", "barista generation", "got my Liberals Arts degree generation", feel free to add to the list and when it's complete we'll take a PT vote and get this chit straight.

That generation stops around 1997-98.

So are you one of the people who raised this generation you clearly despise?

You realize that many of us are working to pay for these jack offs right now, right?


We aren't all "snowflakes". Plenty of us died or were wounded overseas in these stupid wars. If you think everyone from their mid 30s down to their early 20s is a snowflake you are sadly mistaken.

Can we make it start with those born in 1990?

That would require getting off your azz and actually working, putting your IPhone down, shutting of the PS2 and crawling outta the basement before 8AM. Oh and BTW the "boomers" are the ones who created the virtual playground you dopes exist in.

Not descriptive of Millennials.

But definitely descriptive of Dems.

wiki----- Millennials (also known as Generation Y, Generation Me and Echo Boomers) are the demographic cohort following Generation X. There are no precise dates for when this cohort starts or ends; demographers and researchers typically use the early 1980s as starting birth years and ending birth years ranging from the mid-1990s to early 2000s

The boomers are also the ones in charge of all the universities pushing the snowflake mentality and are also the majority of democratic representation, also pushing that bullshite. Oh, and let's not forget that every snowflake was raised by either boomer or gen x parents. Sorry if your are upset with the fruits of your generations failure.

You frickers are the ones that taught the participation trophy bullshite. We didn't invent that, y'all did. The snowflakes of the Millennial Generation is on the Boomers and Gen X.
