> [@Machine\_Elf](#): > > An entertaining and informative video here about [millenials in the workforce.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXWNChoIluo) I hope that was sarcasm. The entire premise is faulty. Millennials aren’t entitled. the entire concept is just the usual disdain the older generation has for the younger generation because they are different. The entire concept of “entitlement” is just a way to belittle people, because literally everyone feels they are entitled to things. Just because he copied millennials by drawing on a markerboard for a video doesn’t mean he has some special knowledge. You know, those millennials who actually had more entrepreneurial spirit than he does. ---

What I like about millennial punching articles is how they think millennials aren’t obedient consumers because of some hipster, quasi-socialist aesthetic instead of late stage capitalism playing itself out. Maybe more tax cuts for the rich will save the day. ---

> [@octopus](#): > > BigT, sometimes you just gotta see the humor in a post. it’s been repeated so often that it ceased being funny a long time ago. I’m honestly sick and tired of people bitching about millennials, not least because the people bitching about them _are the people who raised them._ You have a problem with millennials? Look in a mirror to understand why. hell, if I wanted to turn it around and make a sweeping generalization about an entire generation, I’d say this is nothing more than Boomers doing what they do best- trying to find someone else to blame for their own screw-ups. ---

Promiscuous millennials are killing McDonald’s, yet millenials aren’t having sex? Hm. But seriously, I’d like to see that first article. What does promiscuity have to do with McDonald’s? ---

What does promiscuity have to do with McDonald’s? Google is right on top of it. Just google that headline, exactly as is, and find pages of hits! Quite possibly, this strategy might work for most or all of those headlines! Maybe some of those things millennials killed are in improvement upon society. Focus Groups? Dinner dates? Their bosses? The oil industry? Golf? Some things society might just be better off without! Looks like they still have work to do with wine corks. ---
