Why is your millennial crying?

Post by VMI77 »

Humor at the expense of millennials, and, well, those of us that spawned them.

Remove the tattoo square and replace it with "the XBox is broken" and the cartoonist has been hiding in my house.

As a millennial (born in '89) there are a lot of cry babies out there. I got lucky and have a core group that has a bit of old fashioned mentality. But I do like my tattoos lol, and I never complained about them hurting ha.

You should have seen the look on my grandson's face last night, when I blocked his internet access. :shock:

You horrible misanthrope! How could you have possibly do that to the poor child? You severed their entire social and emotional support network with the flick of a button! No wonder they say us old folks "just don't understand!"

Thank you.

Hopefully when the screaming stops the void will be filled with the understanding that you actually care.

There wasn't any screaming. He came to tell me the internet was down. I told him that it was only down for him. I got a shocked look that the old man knew how to do it. :lol:

I needed to get his attention, so I only shut him down for a hour or two. I explained that next time it will be for AT LEAST a week.

I wished I would have kept my kids in the garden longer, had no TV, or ever bought a video game. I should have bought books and garden tools for Christmas. :biggrinjester:

Working at a school, you should hear some of the threats teachers get when they tell a student to hand over their phone. It's insane how many students think they can hide their texting in a classroom. It's especially sad when the lights are off and it looks like a miniature sun coming from underneath their desk and they STILL express shock that you caught them texting lol.
