This just seems stupid to me.

People can be stressed about things without everything being a comparison to how someone had it worse.

Which is my fricking point. I'm saying it's only valid in my experience, and in no way is that indicative of how it is on a bigger scale. In my experience means just that: only applicable to people I've encountered.



Discussions and debates aren't judged/won by anecdotal stories.

You aren't very smart and are triggered far too easily. In my experience, folks with your personality type lose their keys and phones a lot.

Then it's a good thing I wasn't trying to win a debate.

We're in a thread about dumb millennials and you tried to again attack my marriage with some zinger. Get a life.

I’m just going to say that losing the farm, there being no work to be found, and trying to feed a family of four during the depression when there is no government assistance to help you is a metric frick ton more stressful than being bombarded with self induced technological stress, not receiving a 6 figure income before you’re 30, or not getting the work you would like right out of college (that’s paid for through assistance given you). Awww hell.... you mean you have to work your way up through the ranks? frick me.

Ask my Dad's generation about stress. He only had to deal with the Great Depression and World War 2. I'm sure those pale in comparison to a dead iPhone battery.

We’re literally in a Great Depression right now because trump ruined the economy

Boomers using the Depression or WW2 to shite talk Millennials is Stolen Valor


Boomers went through a draft and fought in Vietnam. They have a good point of reference for war. I agree about the Great Depression. None of us know what hell those people went through.

Did you live during the depression? If not, you can't complain about anything in your life.

You're going to need to explain yourself for this one. I was paying for those basic services 20-30 years ago and your 100X more is over the top absurd.

This is the biggie for me. It seems like many expect a quality of life like their parents had right out of the gate.

The job structure is a lot different today though. It rewards job jumpers rather than people who stay and learn through the ranks.

NO, and still i am able to understand that the stress I endure today, and throughout my life is pale in comparison.

I would just like to know who the frick these people interviewed. Because I’m a millennial, 25 yrs old, and none of these things cause me any stress in my life. Other than paying bills.

I realize that at this point in my life, I’m not going to have everything I’ve ever wanted. These are some weak bitches, holy shite.

So you're blaming the grandparents for the failure of their grandchildren? You're not too smart are you.

Maybe you need to spew your venom to the GenXers.

What I find hysterical about this list the numbers 12-18 (minus number 14) are actual stressful events yet slow WiFi is more stressful to people. Maybe life isn’t that bad if WiFi is a bigger worry than financial or residential security.

Also this is coming from someone on the earlier years of the Millineal generation.

It going to lie though, there have been many times I’ve woken up from a drunk night out and #1 just about gave me a heart attack

No shite. I haven't ever overdosed on black tar heroin, yet somehow I know it's nothing that I want to go through, and I know it's probably worse than anything I've gone through.
