Generation Cry Baby: Why Millennials Are a F**king Joke
We’re raising a generation of pussies. There. I said it.
When I was a junior in high school, I had the most amazing AP English teacher. Her name was Ms. Wei. She prefaced the class by saying that she would grade us fairly, and that these grades would not always be A’s.
“I get that you and your parents all think you all are ‘special snowflakes,’ but I will grade you based on your writing, and if your parents email me complaining about these grades, I will ignore them.”
Now Ms. Wei was a little blunt for some (I freaking adored that woman, and I don’t know anyone who didn’t), but she brought up a good point.
Millennials: your parents won’t say it, and your peers won’t say it because it seems every little thing is sending you all to a therapist because you’re just sooooooo victimized, but
Get. The. F**K. Over. Yourself.

Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

She omitted the necessary "SIDENOTE 3": *Ms. Wei's approach was obviously not very effective at teaching me to use full sentences. Or develop paragraphs. Or think very carefully about things.Originally posted by Uncle Ted View PostReminds me of a blog posting I read recently...

I haven't followed this thread at all, but geez--can we get over the generation-bashing already? The Millennials are not all pussies any more than the Baby Boomers are all entitled parasites.Last edited by ERCougar; 12-10-2015, 07:43 PM.At least the Big Ten went after a big-time addition in Nebraska; the Pac-10 wanted a game so badly, it added Utah

Ha! College sophomores are generally insufferable know-it-all A holes. Hopefully this is just a by-product of some of the ridiculous naive philosophies they're exposed to and it doesn't carry over into the real world.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View Post"I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch!

The millennials value inclusion, therefore they are all pussies. We can't leave anyone out or we might hurt someone's precious feelings.Originally posted by ERCougar View PostShe omitted the necessary "SIDENOTE 3": *Ms. Wei's approach was obviously not very effective at teaching me to use full sentences.
