Uhm... what? Millennials are generally 80-81 to 99. Don't trust a "study" that can't even gauge within commonly accepted time range.


We've probably had more threads debating the birth year range of Millennials on the OT than actual LSU game threads on Tiger Rant.

It’s sad really. And worse that the previous generations that raised these snowflakes are the real reason for their existence.


That's really correct. It's not really their fault so much that they are pretentious, coddled little shits all grown up now--it's the parents and the generation that raised them's fault.

The free tuition part makes no sense. College used to be cheap, boomers basically got to go for free. Too bad they fricked everyone else for their own entitlement. If you want to see an entitled generation look there first.

You can thank the federal government backed student loans for that shite. That's when costs started to skyrocket.

I'm not a boomer and tuition at LSU is 4-5x more now than it was for me in the mid to late 90s.

Prolly shared it in typical boomer fashion too with random words in all caps

You can always pick out boomers on FB and elsewhere with the random words that are in caps.

People that use the term "snowflake" to describe a group of people they disagree with are more prone to whine/cry/melt/complain over perceived injustices than the group they are trying to discredit

I have no clue where you millennials get this kind of fake information.

Basically the 70's were horrible economically. Few people had money to do anything.

college is about 3x more expensive in real dollars than it was in the 70s
Median household income has only increased about 40%

I will be honest, I think it sucks to use the word "snowflake" to describe someone. It just seems like one of those words someone uses to substitute a cuss word. Instead of saying "pussies" someone will use "snowflake".
