Millennials are 22-37 years old. 

Ah.

Well then they would make up the bulk of the bar attenders.

Remember when Languish was made up of 22-37 year olds? Ah those were the days.

Quote from: Tamas on April 04, 2019, 04:12:56 AMNow, see, this is what I mean: it's not like I wouldn't prefer her 100000000000000000000000000x times more to Trump, but she is matching with the same insticts/reflexes as Trump, except from the left. Even the Facebook stuff are mirror images. She is having a fanatic following building around her, and she hasn't done anything else but being an outsider and offering easy radical solutions to her side's real and perceived problems.

Yeah it's beautiful to watch. The more she's attacked, the more free publicity she gets. She's a very stable genius at sucking in all of the attention in the room and focusing it on her.  :showoff:

I keep telling people on the right not to take the bait.  Nobody listens to me :(

Leslie Moonves on Donald Trump during the campaign: "It May Not Be Good for America, but It's Damn Good for CBS".

The news isn't really the news anymore...it is about perpetuating the outrage cycle and getting eyeballs to watch their right vs. left tribal showdown.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

For my 2 c tending bar in Union Square is more impressive then being a Senate intern.


More importantly, it plays really well with millennials.

It plays well with 30 and 40 year olds? Nice they still manage to get out at that age.

:lol:

The early 20 somethings in my office constantly make the point that they are not. I realized someone has determined that they are, but they want to put some distance between themselves and what they view as the true millennials.

The term "millenials" always slightly irked me, as it seemed they were referring to the wrong generation.  Millenials should be those born in the new millenium - so they're just starting to become adults now.

Don't blame them one bit.  Generation Z hopefully will be a correction against the millennials, as Gen X was against the Boomers.

Have you even listened to her, or watch her in hearings?

She seemed capable enough in the hearings and had more decorum than Louis Gohmert.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Yeah but Louis Gohmert might be the stupidest man in Texas.
