"Millennials" as distinct from "Gen-X" is bullshit, we're all actually "post-Boomers." The transition from "take care of everybody" to "fuck everybody" began in the 70s and has just gotten worse. Every way Millenials are screwed is just a worsening/extension/development of ways Gen Xers were (and many still are) screwed.

@mumpsimus True that... and all that crap they talk about the Millenials they said about us Gen-Xers back in the day.

@Shutsumon @mumpsimus I've just come to conclusion that 20 somethings are 20 somethings, period. No matter the era.

@OldandConfused @mumpsimus I remember reading a book about Cornish Folktales and it contained a ghost story that was narrated to the collector in the Victorian era.

It was hilarious because near the start the teller makes the observation that young people in every generation never listen to their elders and old people say the world is falling apart because of badly behaved young people because they have forgotten what they were like.

@Shutsumon @OldandConfused that's true! Never trust older people talking about what shits younger people are

@mumpsimus @Shutsumon I try hard not to, but yaknow, sometimes it's fun to make fun of people for doing the same stupid shit we used to do. ;)
