1. I'm not a "boomer".
2. You are by far the most hated person in here. Stop projecting.
3. You claim I don't know you yet you sure seem to think you know me.
4. Lower middle class? Um....good for you?
5. The generations after millennials hate millennials. Your generation is the absolute worst.

I read somewhere that many "older" millenials (mid to late 30s), the age range which I fall into, tend to seek out and socialize with a crowd that's older than they are in order to not be associated with that label. I can't say I did this on purpose, but I am the youngest in the main group of friends (aged mid 30s to early 50s) that I hang out with, and when I read it, I remember thinking "that's awesome".

The "whining millenial" is so overused that it tends to be as much as a stereotype as "Asians are terrible drivers". However, like all stereotypes, there is an element of truth to it. There are a lot of people in my generation that feel that they were dealt a bad hand, and likes to blame Gen-X/Boomers for it. It's not true. Successful people don't blame others for their state in life. They figure out how to excel, and there are plenty of people in the millenial generation that have done it. I do "okay" for myself, but looking back on some financial decisions I made over the past 10-15 years, I could be in a much better position. That's my own fault, not any other generation's before me. And that's true for 99% of my generation.

I would like to know one instance where he made a racist comment at a person


he called sh!thole countries what they are, but despite hearing a zillion times that trump is racist, I have yet to hear one racist word from him on camera


I did hear a lot of "reporters" and "journalists" imply a lot of racist statements on the march in Virginia earlier in the week


and if eric trump did what hunter biden did, it would be 24/7 news, yet it's never talked about

Agree with all this.

I for one am economy driven, most other issues are just identity politics that 50% will think one way and 50% other.

Unemployment is down, wages are up, inflation hasn’t been bad.


Dow went up 7000 points from Obama’s nomination to Trumps in 8 years. Not bad, we would all take that.

From Trumps nomination to now, 3 years it has gone up 11000. Wow. I don’t care how the media tries to spin it, we are seeing the results.

Also I am a millennial, and saying we don’t have opportunity is just a crutch for people who don’t want to put the effort in to succeed.

not really sure i want to get into this.... but i myself am what you would classify as an older millennial. I think there is a big difference between the older and younger ones and i don't know if this is part of it but i graduated got multiple offers and was established where i work before the recession. it seems like most of the "whiners" were negatively impacted by the recession whether it be they lost their job or had to take a lower paying job because of it... i could be wrong but that just seems to be an observation i made.... but all people my age and younger have communication issues in a face to face situation and that has to be because of technology and upbringing.

I was talking about Khmylev lol not Trump.

I think all American presidents are crap, corrupt puppets. Obama was worse than Trump, imo and Bernie is a twat and Hilary is Satan's sperm in human form.

He is nothing to get worked up over. Only Derk can ruffle my feathers that way but I also like Derk and think he is funny.

I said wages have been up (they have) inflation hasn’t run rampant (it hasn’t). Can you name a President that has exploding wage growth outpacing inflation recently? N

The answer is no.

Cirelli, Botterill has inquired. If Tampa moves Point ( and I don't see that happening) it will take a 1st this year ++.

Would love a Reinhart and Mitts trade for him. Would be amazing to have our top 2 centers locked down for the foreseeable future.

To much, you don't include Reinhart and Botterill won't do that.

I don’t think it is. I much rather have point than Reinhart. At this time I’m not expecting much from Mitts. Point seems like a sure thing at a much harder position to fill
