As a Millennial, the only thing I want from the younger generations is to see them restore my faith in humanity. We're so tired, but we won't stop fighting. Attrition is on our side and it will be on your's too. Chin up.

The kids are alright.

Other than their cringey Fortnite obsession. Damn, maybe I should vote to fuck their future over, just for that....

Damn dances! I hope you stay in debt forever to pay for my social security!

I understand that feeling, and the key is to find a healthy outlet for it. I've discovered embarrassing them by intentionally misusing their slang is hilarious.

Last week I pretended to confuse bussy (I pronounced it "Bus E") for bussin'. When I was informed I was using it wrong I demanded they explain what bussy means.

But bussy is an incredibly useful and versatile addition to the lexicon

Oh it is. It's also a great way to embarrass young adult relatives.
