re: Millenials are the worst generation of human beings ever.

This post encompasses my three points perfectly. The Millienals are smarter than everyone who came before them and will save the world and the rest of us from our own ignorance and sloth. They're the greatest generation of all time since the dawn of human civilization. They're going to light a fire that will change the world.

I never said we're smarter, but we're certainly more connected to the world at large (growing up with the internet saw to that), and we're certainly more frugal. We don't give a shite about nice cars, homes, or other over-the-top unneccesary objects. Basically the only nice things we want are laptops and cell phones, as well as a place to stay in a decent location, and most of us are pretty good.

Plus with the technology and the knowledge that many of us are very likely to make it to our hundreds, I do think we'll live more in the long term, rather than just thinking things 4 years in advance tops like preceding generations. X and the Millenials won't spend even close to the amount of money as yall did, and will hopefully see the end to many bullshite regulations that only control freaks and old people are for (like the War on Drugs). It's been over 40 years since we last went to the Moon, but your generation really doesn't give a frick and has mortgaged our advancement as a species away from us. Yall have been in charge since the 80s, and have done nothing with the gifts given to you but consumerism. I hope my generation will be much different and actually advance ourselves as a species as your parent's generation did.
