I don't know how much of it is hereditary but I will encourage my son to drink very moderately and responsibly when he gets to the legal age and the reason for this is that my father died at the young age of 59 from a heart attack. His blood was very thick and he never touched a drop of alcohol in his life. He might still be alive today if he had drank lightly in a medicinal capacity.

Alcoholic beverages are not always just about getting drunk. Millennials better get informed on the health benefits.

Dehydration is the silent killer.

I've been to Evangelical Christians weddings, Muslim, weddings, and Catholic weddings. I know which one had the best receptions, by far.

What's wrong with being stoned and drunk? They go together like coffee and cigarettes, or a steak and a blowjob.

I really don't need booze. Not trying to escape anything. I have a great time just talking to people and hearing good tunes. To be honest I am not really sure why people drink. Don't understand drinking

i guess it's impossible to know for sure, but i have a hunch i'm correct. there are plenty of studies that say this generation isn't drinking as much as previous generations.
There was literally a 20 page thread two weeks ago of people blaming the fricking millennials for being so damn drunk at all the lsu tailgates.


Yall literally blame them for everything on both sides of the coin

I'd like to contact them and find these "workaholic" millennials to hire. The ones I interview are typically the opposite.

Because you have confirmation bias.

The millennial generation is going into a workforce where they are expected to be 100% available at all times. Cell phones. laptops, etc means you never truly leave work.

Now all the other generations are here as well, but the millennials will spend their entire work life in this, and as the lower people on the totem pole they experience alot of the work.

Why 1993? You born in 92 and think you're better?




I was born in the 80s? 92 is 25.

Agreed. Along with dancing, fatty foods, and fun.

I'm fine with most dancing except "grinding" and think there should be some type of limit on fatty foods. Dunno what you mean about the fun thing lol.

I hope this catches on. Sometimes I have a hard time finding my favorite beer at the store. Less demand, more supply works for me.
