Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

The trend I find hilarious is when people come into these threads and start yelling at people about how wrong they are to generalize a generation, etc. Frankly, I can't imagine why people feel the need to defend others over this, it's weird--and I imagine that none of them complained when people complained about Millenials.

I don’t recall ever seeing anyone posting memes about how long before the millennials are all dead- and having everyone in the comments cheer it on.

But don’t let this get in the way of your strawman.

It's a start.

I kid, I kid, my parents are already dead, not everyone who was/is a boomer is horrid. But this generation has hung around power for too long, it's time to move on.

Thanks for the decimal places on the percentage. Wanna be precise with that one.

The only way we can start to have actual positive change is unfortunately to wait for them to die out. They have proven they refuse to make the world a better place and will go out as selfishly and as damaging as possible. What a harmful and entitled generation.
