Millennials are getting a real hammering in the media lately, with that Fay Weldon furore the latest example. Don't people realise that all this 'snowflake' stuff is really the insidious mainstreaming of a right-wing political narrative? Frankly I feel increasingly sorry for bloggie and his feckless, precious, cereal munching ilk. Let's not start the millennial bashing again..

By that definition I'm a millennial. I am therefore from now on unashamedly pro-millenial. After all, we're the ones who have to deal with the mess left behind by you old fuckers.

OTTM: Andrew Marr has Theresa May on the ropes on BBC1. It's a bit like Python's Dead Parrot sketch. 'This deal is not dead'. etc...
"She's no Diane Abbott", a semi-lucid Diane Abbott was quoted saying.*
*I have met her in office, and she's a fucking moron.
Despite going to Cambridge (2:2) in History, despite being tutored by historian Simon Schama.

The right wing narrative has colonised my discourse.

'81 is millennial? Fuck off. Move it to '85, and it's more realistic.
Morning all. Been down the park with the boy, as desperate to get out of the house. He had a good run around, but tired quickly.
Is there anything better than judging other people? I think not. There was a Dad down there, busily chatting on his mobile while his toddler fell over and cried, desperate for some parental attention. Idiot.

"The term Millennials generally refers to the generation of people born between the early 1980s and 1990s, according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. ... The Millennial Generation is also known as Generation Y, because it comes after Generation X — those people between the early 1960s and the 1980s."
I'd say 1981 was early 80s

If we're being really honest, one person who "works from home" 90% of the time and one person who's just been without a job for however long, sounds like you two are pretty much perfect representations of the media's presentation of our age group. You two give us millennials a bad name.

I’m a millennial, I think most of the people you lot refer to as millennials are actually just young people (21 and under)
Spiderman - Top banana
I also played some Destiny 2 yesterday, I don’t understand why people get so worked up about it, it’s a thoroughly decent single player/multiplayer game that you play through the missions of and then stop. Basically like Halo but with some multiplayer missions.
If you drive yourself insane trying to collect all the end game loot just for.. the game to end, why not just stop?

Currently in A&E as the kid hurt his ankle in the park. Am I the bad dad amipal saw? No, Mrs Fark was on duty at that precise moment. Been here a couple of hours now.

Basically like Halo but with some multiplayer missions. It confused me. I thought I was playing single player and stumbled into some co-op Vs the computer. I really don't know how. I wasn't drunk or otherwise impaired. Apart from my own stupidity. Will go back to it at somepoint.

The kid will be fine and doesn't need medical treatment, just rest. If it's still swollen after a couple of days, book a nurse appointment at your GP surgery. Typical millennial, blocking up the NHS with offspring in the most expensive way possible. I absolutely mean all that, and I'm not being in the slightest bit ironic.

There should be one Shenguin in every A&E across the county, to perform triage on those entering.

It's over 20 years since I hurt it. I think it was a Tuesday, and I'm still embarrassed I wasted the nurse's time with it on the Friday when it was still swollen and couldn't take any weight.

Just wrecked the cable of the hand blender on the stove. I just assumed the smell of burning plastic was coming from my pasta sauce.
