On average, Boomers are lazy, unimaginative, entitled counts.
Honestly, I feel bad for Gen X. They bought into the Boomer bullshite, not realizing they were getting conned.

The OG definition of a millennial was the generation of people that "came of age" around the millennium. not ones born up to the millennium.

Today's kids aren't millenials. Millenials are in their 20s to early 30s now.
Even late 30's. Pew Research settled on 1981-1996 which puts the oldest millennials at 37.

The reason is people born in the 1980's remember live pre internet. while people born in the mid 90's do not. to me that is the big factor that should distinguish this generation. With that said all the crap thrown at millenials would be directed to the group born in the late 1990's and 2000's bcecause they are the entitled ****s that have been ruining the country.

I have never so vehemently agreed with anything you've said more than this.

It's their defense against personal accountability
imagine if we all made generalizations about an entire age range of people based on talking to 1 person.

Obama was elected because large black voter turnout and white guilt across all generations.
Majority of millenials don’t care about politics anyway. Which is Our biggest problem.

Millennials are nothing more than a mirror image of their shitty baby boomer parents, who were far more spoiled than they accuse their kids of being.

Most in my generation from my anecdotal evidence of knowing people are fiscally conservative and socially liberal. Let gays get married, weed should be legal, you do you, etc.
I'm almost 41 and this is essentially me. I'm a straight, white guy though and vote more in line with my checkbook than my heart

So yea, i can see how we dont want to attach ourselves to certain things.

The frick are you talking about?
I was using “we” to cover the entire generation. While I’m disinclined to give an exact number, I’m in my early to mid 30’s.

See above. And in my anecdotal experience, even the younger members of my generation are whipping your asses.

When did the millenials turn for the worse?
When they started listening to rap and hip hop instead of rock and heavy metal.

Parents share some of the blame, but millennials are terrible.

Kinda generalizing there aren't you? Not to be a dick, but maybe your experiences about opening a new business weren't as thought-provoking or interesting as you believe they were. Maybe he had something important he needed to focus on and he was trying to be nice by listening to your stories. I'm all for some millennial bashing but lets be reasonable

Bitching about younger generations. This has only been going on since, I don't know, the beginning of humanity.
60 years ago, old people were convinced rock and roll was the music of the devil and it would ruin the young generations.
