We have created ***MONSTERS*** VIDEO

[Gandalf]

I find things like this a bit silly. There are going to monsters in any generation, but most millenials are not monsters. They are just young adults trying to find their way in the world just like any other generation did. BUT the millenials have a harder time of it than any generation since the great depression. They have a right to think the system is unjust and that there are dinosaurs such as their parents who ignored the decline and have left it all on them. The baby boomers are not the ones inheriting a system as morally, economically and sociallly bankrupt one as this. The mess will take decades to clean up and millenials are not the reason why any of this happened. The monsters are not the kids, it is those that turned a blind eye to the decay that has long been underway.

I think the problem with the Neo-Victorian/CryBully/Millennials is that due to advances in healthcare, technology, etc Childhood has been extended and right now it's at the College/University level for the most part....it's not the good parts of childhood, it's the bad parts. The temper tantrums, the complaining, the "That's not fair!", the "But it's my turn!" kind of things are happening and since everyone is valued and everyone is ENTITLED to an opinion some people have gone absolutely nuts with this. There are speech police everywhere, thought police, tone police.


People simply will not switch that shit off, they'll throw down at the drop of a Washington Redskins hat

I personally find millenials to be utterly DEVOID OF PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS, dreadfully INEPT IN INTERPERSONAL SITUATIONS, horrifically IGNORANT OF HISTORY, and completely SELF-ENTITLED LAZY WHINING BRATS.

and that's just a rough snapshot.

Yes because computers do everything for them. Look no further than the new Mickey Mouse Club, Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, et al don't SOLVE any problems they get "Toodles" to fix everything. Toodles being some sort of robot half slave half pet.


If there is a problem they just holler "Oh Toodles" and boom, problem solved....and yeah I understand that Millennials aren't currently watching that shit, but they were brought up on that kind of stuff.


They don't "get" human interaction, it's mind boggling...they'll chit chat away all day on the interwebs and in real life








And yes, I realize the irony of posting this here....on a forum on the interwebs

Morons is what they are, really.

How much interaction with the kids are you two really having? I typically teach about 200 young adults each week and see none of what you are saying.Sure they have cell phones and social networks, but they also have access to information and know a lot. The notion that kids don't know history or how to reason or discuss ethics is silly. They can even talk about these things in a second language and sometimes to a shockingly impressive degree. There are no tantrums, inability to reason, none of that. These are young adults and they are just fine. Now the job market they will go into is not fine, but that's not their fault!

[brocktonblockbust]

Those 200 are Kyongi mid-quality. In a crisis they will not know how to behave. Of course in a classroom they can comport themselves in constructive ways. It is all a simulation of real life. But in actuality they will temper-tantrum/stamp & stomp/whine and Korean Suicide City off 63 Building.

Plus CANDLE ZOMBIE and CRAZY.COW.

What utter poppycock.

You need to get away from the battered women, immigrants and subways and start talking to genuine intelligent young people on campuses. A few whiners caught on camera do not represent the multitude of decent, right minded young folk that are out there. 'Monsters' and 'Entitlement'. Really? The entitlement is the baby boomers wanting a nice life whilst their kids, grandkids and great grandkids etc have to pay for it whilst they themselves get less and less with each passing generation and see the super rich getting richer and the poor in trailers getting poorer.

Something has to give and it would be great to see the young take back what is theirs. Their time is now, but of course the baby boomers will sit by and let snipers be aimed at the entitled occupy crowd because 'Look at them, they are so entitled and monstrous'. How about it is just right?
