Do they even know what paint is?

I like the one where they are trying to dial a rotary phone:

My grandson and I compromised. I wanted to show him how to filet a large catfish he caught. He asked me to wait five minutes while he went into the house. Sure enough he came out 5 minutes later and said he could do it all by himself.

And he did! He watched a you tube video. Of course after much practice since then he has gotten much better at it.

Many have never lifted a car hood, changed a tire etc.....

All they think of is “ On Star” or road service as their first response...

Sad.

My millennial son is pretty handy, fortunately. He’s quite a good machinist and welder. He’s also good with computers and can do pretty well with various car repairs. He did quite well in high school wood shop. I’m lucky.

Kimmel, et al love to mock the stupidity of Americans, as if they haven’t played a major role in creating such a dumbed down populace. What’s Kimmel going to do next, moan about the awful state of education in US public schools? Pretty good gig, make the problem, then complain about it as if you have a solution or weren’t the cause of it to begin with. Democrats in a nutshell, make a mess, charge in to “fix” it, wash rinse and repeat.

Flat head screwdriver to pry open. Place a rag on top of the lid and tap the sides of the lid with a hammer or mallet to close it.

Dutch Boy even has easy to screw on and off containers these days.

People here are unfair:

People here might say Millenials are stupid.

Some are, but most aren’t.

During the time that 90% of the people here grew up, the country was not yet TOTALLY overrun with illegal aliens.

Those aliens are the paint contractors. In Calif, you can see them hangning out in groups in front of paint stores and Home Depots. The groups are usually under 10 people, but sometimes there are many more than that.

I believe the video:

THAT is the effect of illegal immigration.

My friend is a painter, and he says that the “painter = Mexican” concept is soooo strongly cemented in the minds of the public that very many people won’t consider contracting with him, simply because he’s a white guy.

New catch phrase: "You kids are dumber than a can of paint."

But many Millennials are already in their thirties.

A lot of the people there are post-Millennials, Generation Z.

I guess that’s another reason we need illegals.

Anyway, a paint can key is a handy tool. Plus the opposite end usually serves as a bottle opener.

Sad day at a gathering of paint-can-incapables.
