Damn, that's a great way of putting it!!! I agree with you 100%. 

I feel like this generation is less ambitious, more realistic and highly financially aware. People are also a lot more introverted/ more comfy being at home on Netflix than out.

In my dorm I see a lot of people curled up in their beds watching something and only go out to work out or eat mostly. 



I’m a millenial.

I’m not lazy, I just hate my meaninless (but well paying) job.



The new crop of humans graduating from high school are generation z. 






Every generation have issues, but yes I don't like millenials and younger.

Millennial are those who were born between 1981-1996.

Apparently I'm a millennial (just barely).  Who knew? I certainly don't feel like one.

Ahh and here I thought we could get along. Anyway this will be a reocurring pattern. In 10 years millenials will probably complaint about Gen Y/Z.

Young people want things to be different and older people want things to be the same. Older people see less value in New talents a new gen bring and see more value in their gens qualities. I live in Europe so elders actually rebuild our country. They work hard under poor conditions and have a much harder spirit and know how to deal with harsh times. Something we are not really capable off. Yet we see the need for a more sustainable world AMD the value of that while elder generations in general see less value in that, just as working behind a PC or with robots instead of your hand. 



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

I love how the defaults of Gen Y (poor at finances, dependent upon parents, naive and want it all) are a direct consequence of the economy destroyed by the previous generations, and Gen Y just trying to have the same goals as Gen X and babyboomers. Yep, Gen Y is naive if we think we can live as easily as them. Even "easy come, easy go" is an usual criticism from 60 years olds who spent their entire life in one job only, and don't understand why youngsters change jobs regularly.

Love the description of kids younger than 15 too. Seeking identity and self-reliant... They're teenagers, no need to think further. We'll see how they manage once on the job market.

Millenials is just another name for Gen Y though (even if some people can have a different definition).

No idea. Google might know. 



I mean, we're a pretty whiny, entitled, overly-sensitive, and oddly puritanical generation overall. I don't blame kids and young teens being annoyed with us.

Though in all fairness, we did sort of get screwed with a shitty economy so we have a right to be whiny to a degree.
