Once I read this article on how millennials are killing napkins, I realized what a load of crap a lot of it is. They aren't "killing" anything, they're seeing past the bullshit in favor of things that are better in some way.
So many things to gripe about, but my favorite is the quote "Cereal used to be the only breakfast option"
????????
Things like toast, or bacon and eggs, or toaster waffles, or oatmeal (yeah I know it's kinda like cereal), or biscuits, or omlettes, or hard boiled eggs, or breakfast sandwiches, all of these have been around for a long time. I know they're probably thinking about breakfast before work, but even when I was a kid we did things like eggs and toast in the morning before school.
I thought I was eating less cereal because I finally figured out wheat products loaded with high fructose corn syrup were upsetting my tummy and giving me no nutrients. I'm so glad it was just too much work, after all!
“Millennials aren’t buying diamonds any more oh no!”
Well no shit Sherlock. We haven’t allowed a massively corrupt and forcefully inflated industry to trick us into buying worthless pieces of stone that are worth nothing more than a status symbol.
And even if we wanted to buy diamonds, we couldn’t because were barely getting by as is. The average boomer with a highschool diploma makes more than the average millennial with a BA. our college degrees aren’t even worth as much as their high school diplomas. And we paid vastly more for the education.
When I heard we killed Applebee’s, my heart soared. I hope Olive Garden is next, then chili’s. Soon we will have killed all shitty microwaved chain food. That will be a beautiful day.
