It turns out that being a millennial doesn’t automatically label you as lazy, spoiled, or glued to social media (though we might roll our eyes at the stereotype). Defined by the U.S. Census Bureau, millennials are those born from 1982 to 2000, putting anyone aged 18 to 36 into this category.
Millennials often delay marriage and parenthood, preferring experiences over owning cars or homes. Yet, our tech-savvy generation is smarter than the “lazy” label implies. And if you check out Twitter, you’ll see just how funny we can be.
- “I wish my passion for anything matched the baby boomers’ passion for critiquing millennials.”
- “Middle-aged folks seem to be the ones who really need to chill.”
- “Honestly, millennials tend to be the nicer ones in the room.”
- “And let’s be real: we know our way around technology.”
- “Let’s just be clear: boomers complain we’re ruining the economy while forgetting to pay us a living wage.”
- “And they grumble when we don’t buy houses that are overpriced to begin with.”
- “Being politically correct isn’t a flaw; it’s just not being rude.”
- “Criticism of our selfies is ironic, considering narcissism predates 1982.”
- “They think we’re wild for wanting universal healthcare.”
- “And yes, we adore food—who doesn’t?”
- “Brunch? Yes, please!”
- “Avocado toast is a lifestyle, not a crime.”
- “At least we understand branding.”
- “Don’t get mad because our slang confuses you.”
- “We’re not upset; we know what’s happening.”
- “But seriously, stop attributing all your problems to us.”
- “Millennials get a lot of flak from older generations, but we didn’t lay the carpet over hardwood floors.”
- “And we certainly didn’t vote for Trump.”
- “So let’s keep perspective here.”
- “At the end of the day, we’re just trying to navigate a world you left us with.”
Millennials face a lot of backlash from older generations, often unfairly. However, it’s worth noting that we didn’t create the issues we’re blamed for—like questionable home decor choices or certain political decisions.
