? How is that? It's like my opinion, man.

If you want to be different from everybody else then you should stop doing what everybody else does.

Uh...no. You graduated from college, immediately got a 9-5 job, and live for the weekends. How unconventional.

Didn't immediately get a 9-5 job, and I moved across the country. This is kinda about having children and being married, TN. You're correlating a job and partying with having children at an early age because that's what people do before they settle. I'm saying I won't but hey time will tell.

What does this chart consider moderate income?

It defines it in the small print.  

My parents were the extreme anti-OTPT -  married at 18 fresh out of high school, 3 kids by 21 and all kids out of high school when they were 40.  It worked for them and even with their kids marrying and having kids later they were able to enjoy their grandkids at a young age.

Millennials are the worst. I should know — I am one.

At 26, I’m stuck in the middle of the world’s most maligned, mocked and discussed age group. And I hate it. Imagine being forever lumped into a smug pack of narcissists who don’t just ignore the past, but openly abhor anyone and everything that came before them.

“My boomer co-workers get paid more and they have no clue what Reddit is!” drones the millennial victim as the tiny violin plays. Meanwhile, baby boomers gave us, um, computers, and our major contributions to society are emojis and TV recaps.

2016 hasn’t exactly been a banner year for the Lousiest Generation.

Well, children do take after their parents mostly.

Boomer generation is responsible for the rise of the welfare and pc state that has killed the younger generations go getting spirit to succeed.

You're the ones that educated us after all.

A lot easier than pointing the finger at yourself for calling a generation dumb that you hand a hand in raising and voting for the politicians that set it all up.

"I open this space, perhaps, with a couple of ground rules," she said. The first two rules were about working beyond the election and recognizing that everyone came for "good reasons." But the third rule was, well, typical millennial.

"One of the ground rules that I do in a lot of my trainings, maybe you all have heard this before. I love it, but it is 'don't yuck my yum,'" she said "For some of us, there are some things that are very yummy and it hurts when people 'yuck' on us. So for example, if one issue is my core issue and it's not yours, that's cool, it's my core issue, don't yuck my yum, that's cool."

The phrase "yuck my yum" basically means not to tell someone that what they like is bad simply because you don't like it. It can sometimes refer to food (quite literally, don't tell me my food is gross), but also to sexuality.

Audelo went on to talk about the "space" she wanted to create for millennials in the room, something that didn't need to be said and came off as insolent and not very inclusive.

Home Ownership Dives To Lowest Point Since 1965: Basement Renovation Companies Cheer! [CBD]
—Open Blogger

Even though the headline is incorrect, and the article is mostly crap, Millennials Cause Home Ownership to Drop to Its Lowest Level Since 1965 is interesting for the points it unintentionally raises. By the way, the headline should have been, Coddled Children Of Coddled Children Aren't Growing Up, which is the story of our times.

Millennials are not only burdened by student loan debt, but they have also delayed life choices like marriage and parenthood, which are the primary drivers of home ownership.

I accept the fact that Millennials owe a lot of money for their "Lesbian Poetry of 16th Century Low-Country Wiccans" degrees, but I categorically reject the idea that the debt was somehow thrust upon them by unnamed evil capitalists. Nobody "burdened" them with anything. The fact that many of these basement-dwelling, X-box-playing ***ards were insufficiently aware of the state of the employment market when they decided to 1) go to college instead of working for the local plumber and, 2) take 5+ years to finish a bullshit major that will never provide the income to pay back those loans is entirely their responsibility.

If anyone is to blame it is the parents of these entitled, dissolute assholes. They made it easy for their spawn to reject responsibility, adulthood, self-respect, personal hygiene, and a few things I haven't thought of yet.

The sad thing is that many of these toads have bought into the illogical pipe-dream that is socialism-lite...a la Bernie Sanders. Had they gotten an actual education instead of jerking off for five years they might have learned something about that mythical cradle-to-grave support system that everyone is owed by their benevolent government. It often ends in gulags or, in the case of Sweden, a country so disinterested in its own survival that it accepts invaders whose first goal is to rape every native woman (and many native men) in the country.

The leftist drivel that universal home-ownership is an unalloyed economic boon is nonsense. But what home ownership does is connect the owners to the community, something that Millenials are sorely lacking. And with decreasing connections to community, is it any wonder that interest in and love of country is also decaying?
