That's not millenials. Kids in college right now aren't millenials.

Its actually the XY cusp generation(~1979-~1984) aka Xennials, that are going to save the world. 
Technology(specifically computers, internet, social media and handheld instant access) has had the largest impact on the world, culture and society since TV, radio and the Gutenberg Press and is the biggest difference between X'ers and Millennials. XY cuspers were coming of age during this transition and remember pre and post vividly. This gives them a unique perspective that other generations dont have.
Generations dont just start and stop on a dime. December 31, 1979 isnt some huge defining transition to January 1, 1980. There are transitional periods between the generations that are called "cusp" generations. Theyre usually very small and unique and because of this members of those generations can have a large impact.

Technically they're not.
The popular definition of a millennial is anyone 14-30 years old or some crap.
When I'm using the term I'm not sticking to hard dates. I'm more or less saying
"Entitled older generation" - baby boomers
"Entitled younger generation" - millennials
"Generation taking it up the arse" - gen x'ers

Someone who's 30 has more in common with a 40 year old than a 14 year old

Gays. You are describing gays. That is what your generation represents. The AIDs movement and gay pride marches. That is Generation X.

You should probably have named your kid then. If you try now it probably is too old to learn to respond to its name.

In the future, when your wife leaves you for a millennial man, a younger man who doesn't need Viagra, whose stomach doesn't hang below his dick from yelling at Fox News while eating burger king chicken fries, who didn't loose his job for failing to learn and adapt to the new world while blaming the younger generation, don't blame me. I told you this would happen. Take that stick shift and shove it up your a-hole.
you think age will pass you over? Man are you all wet behind the ears. As my dad once said to me, and he was right at the time, "you may be old enough, but you're still not qualified"

millennials are the ruination of this country. Just check out the daily left wing propaganda machine (the msm) for further proof of the destruction those bums cause with their daily bitch fest du jour.
