Humorous Tweets That Make Millennials Look Pretty Good For A Change
The idea that millennials repeatedly get the short end of the stick is not a new concept.
The idea that millennials repeatedly get the short end of the stick is not a new concept; we've basically been discussing it since the youngest members of the generation reached adulthood, yet they continue to be infantilized by every older generation possible, and even some boomer-minded millennials themselves.
As we've spent the last few years pushing back against the notion that millennials must be ruining everything—although some of those things we've celebrated the destruction of, haven't we?—we've come to realize that it doesn't matter what is said on social media; millennials will probably get the short end of the stick until the last boomer is gone.
We just want to take a little time to appreciate their point of view for a change.
1. So many.
It wasn't advancements in forensics; it was the idea that people were entitled to your time because you let them be, and millennials said, "Eff that."

Yup, according to Daniel Pink, a bestselling author and business thinker:
"The Pet Rock phenomenon in the 1970s exemplifies how simple ideas can lead to extraordinary success. Gary Dahl's innovative marketing strategy turned a mundane object into a cultural icon." The Mexican beach stones cost a penny a piece and were packaged in a cardboard box (with air holes cut out), placed in a straw nest, and sold for $3.95. Dahl, the Pet Rock's inventor, became an overnight millionaire, reportedly selling 100,000 Pet Rocks a day and making 95 cents profit on each rock he sold, as noted by Gretchen Rubin, a happiness researcher.

5. A true crime.
If you live anywhere with a bunch of older houses being renovated and sold as the boomers retire, then you'll find out very quickly (unfortunately) just how true this is.
