For the past several years, the media has dubbed Millennials the lazy, entitled, 'snowflake' generation who go around killing entire industries with their discriminating taste. Despite the fact that Millennials are now between the ages of 25 and 40, they still get blamed for things like Covid-19 super-spreader events on college campuses. With how generously the term gets used as a general pejorative, you'd think 'Millennial' could just mean 'youngish person who I don't like.' Well many are sick and tired of taking crap from out-of-touch people who seem to consider their own generation to be completely blameless. One redditor asked the internet to vent about the most annoying stereotypes about Millennials they've heard, and the replies are pretty spicy. If you're a disgruntled Millennial who's over all the slander, these top responses from the Reddit thread will probably resonate with you.

These memes are for the oldest Millennials who were born in the '80s! Since literally all of us are getting depressed thinking about how old we're getting, we need some memes to help us feel better about it. And let's face it, the '80s and '90s were just a better time.
As we all get older, naturally we start yearning more for the past. The '80s and '90s just seemed like simpler times, no? But at the end of the day, every generation thinks their childhood was the best decade. Pretty soon Zoomers will start feeling nostalgic for the 2000s era, and the rest of us will feel like fossils.
Oh look, Millennials are back at it ruining everything! A new survey conducted by Porch and tweeted out by Now This News claims that Millennials might be the worst generation at cooking ever, and that nearly 40% don't even know what a butter knife is. Additionally, only about 40% know how to carve a turkey. The horror.
Porch surveyed 750 people of all ages, asking them if they considered themselves to be "good cooks" - just over 60% of Millennials answered yes, while well over 70% of Baby Boomers said the same.
Many on Twitter have pointed out that the reasoning and methods used by the surveyors is heavily flawed - it's almost like hating on Millennials is all just a big marketing ploy to distract us from real problems! Lol nah, that can't be it...
What have Millennials done to ruin absolutely everything now? Well, according to a study produced by Mintel, 28% of Gen Y would rather stay in than go out to the bars. The reasoning for staying in? Young people today supposedly like doing everything from the comfort of their own homes, and it takes too much effort to go out, the study says. Millennials themselves are calling out Mintel for skipping some of the necessary details.
