    Millennials 2.0

    Here it is. A product of our society on full display.

    This little snowflake's parent-aided utopia is about to change.

    I'm laughing because it's like you know just the right buttons to push to trigger my defense of young people.

    Frank, two thirds of the millennials in your example seem like regular level-headed young people ready to start the best years of their lives. It's just another reminder that we shouldn't use anecdotal experiences to generalize groups of people.

    I have 2 kids who are Mills; I'm not making a blanket indictment at all.
    I happen to agree with you.


    But it's that one third that terrifies me.


    BTW: I hope this thread highlights notable examples of the "two thirds". I need the encouragement.

    Lol

    Marco,
    You've nailed the clinical definition for Ashley.

    Will be interesting to see if her last name surfaces. Looking forward to reading her other emails once her account is hacked by the Russians.

    As a group mills are probably wonderful, but too much may be expected of them. As "productive members" of society keeps evolving, mills are forced to adapt to whatever new thing is hyped across Universities, and industry in general.

    Consider the scene in 'Apollo 13'...of correcting course changes using very low battery power as a metaphor for the future.

    Therefore if mills suddenly try to organize a plant that produced steel, they would be thrown off campus. Nevertheless, Facebook got started in the dorm..the ceo's net worth is over 50 billion. Done with very low dc power. Emissions...low also.

    Apple, Google, Amazon...lower energy, lower cost, marginal products.

    Frank-How did you dispose of the third kid?
