lol at the idea that any more than 10% of this thread was born before 1980. Only a millennial would sit around posting about how terrible millennials are. We all know that Pre-1980 generations don't use "computers" or "social media" or browse "comedy forums."

Would have been nice if millenial's parents were that pragmatic. Instead it was 24/7 "you can do anything you want if you put your mind to it. Just follow your dreams!"

Then the kid follows his dreams and the exact people who told him to do so turn around and say "why did you study that, you should have studied [flavor of month degree] instead! It's your own fault!"

I think millennials get jaded from following really bad advice their elders gave them.

This x1000. I swear it's a recent tumblr/SJW/TvTropes or whatever you want to call it thing. People really, really want to have some sort of validity about their perceived problems so instead of saying things like "In general the media disapproves of my lifestyle" or "My parents give me poo poo for wanting to be an artisanal yo-yo crafter instead of going to college" they have to make up some sort of implausible scenario where these people come up to them in real life and, to-wit nothing, insult them on their choices.

I'm a pretty brazen person in real life and never once have I felt the need to go up to someone I've never met or spoken to and tell them I disagree with their life.

Pumpkin is a versatile gourd which has a surprising variety of culinary uses beyond pies and lattes. The relative wastage of it as a food source in North America, over the past century, is quite boggling to the many Europeans who cook with it regularly.

If you grew up indoctrinated with the hollywood ethos that life is an adventure you're gonna become either bitter or depressed when you realize middle-class life has no narrative to it whatsoever.

Plus Wikipedia/google is full of misinformation and if my Facebook feed is any indication, people believe whatever they read with roughly zero critical thought.

Engaged to be Geared!

Dear Universe,

It is with great pleasure that we inform you that we Smizmars, [Idiot #1] and [Idiot#2], are engaged to be geared! Next summer we will interlock our lives deliberately and lovingly with a small commitment ceremony. We value autonomy and independence. We want to become "gears" because we compassionately push and strengthen the other in our individual and mutual journeys for joy, meaning and happiness. For as long as love lasts, we're going to be together, interlocked, & evolving.

Sincerely,
Smizmars (alien weirdos that found each other on earth and have love that resonates into outer space)

Seriously. My work flow includes the occasional need to scratch my balls, fart and sometimes even pick my nose.

I could do these things in front of other people, but then HR would get involved.

They're not bad, just kinda chalky disks of sweetness with a mild clove flavor. Not my favorite, but I never really eat candy anyway.

Each day, thousands upon thousands of men in locker rooms nationwide struggle to put on their underwear while still covered chastely in shower towels, like horrible breathless arthropods molting into something tender-skinned. They writhe, still moist, into fresh clothes.

People with powerpoint jobs not knowing how to use powerpoint. I've seen a lot of presentations with non-fullscreen slides recently.

Stupid slides which are read verbatim and contain too much detail are almost mandatory.

I'm also bothered by how you can tell the persons number one concern is to still appear "cute" while mugging for the camera especially noticeable in women.
