THANK YOU...made my evening. Still laughing.

My grandfather went ashore at Okinawa on D-Day.

My parents were raised during the great depression.

I live through a Cuban missile crisis, multiple political assassinations, imminent treat of nuclear destruction, a presidential resignation and suffered through the political life of Ted Kennedy.

So...

Buck-up, sissy pants.

And thus with this report, millennials prove why they deserve to be called snowflakes.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

As the English would say, “Well bugger me. Snowflakes have feelings”. Next they’ll claim that they have common sense and pride in America.

[GOP Poet]

Yeah snowflakes aren’t soft. They’re SNOWFLAKES. Period. Deal ‘snows’ (my new word for them.) lol

Which is why we call them snowflakes in the first place. What a terrible generation.

“Snowflakes prove they are snowflakes by claiming mental damage due to being called snowflakes...”

[Redleg Duke]

Tango Sierra, SNOWFLAKES!

OMG!!! Society is so horrible to people, giving generations labels that some must either feel they can’t live down or can’t live up to. I think calling any generation or persons of any generation a stereotype label should be a hate crime. /sarc

The study also found that nearly 60 percent of adults in the UK admitted the term wasn’t helping young adults shake the stereotype that millennials are “soft.” A separate Aviva report added that young adults in the UK were the most likely to have mental health issues; with 63 percent having suffered some type of condition.

We have an App for that...
