LOL! As a geriatric millennial I can attest to this, literally no one cared about those stupid participation trophies you gave us. This post is a truth bomb, but it should be a super obvious one. I have no idea where boomers got the idea that we gave the smallest of f*cks about those ribbons. And I did throw mine out.

Did you ever get participation trophies? If there anyone out there who cared about them? Anyone? Let us know in the comments below!
Calm down and eat your Tide Pods while you decide what bathroom to use, child.
As a 39 year old millennial, that is just as stupid as boomers pushing trophies on their kids and then blaming them for it.
I can honestly say that my children will have the sense not to care who uses what bathroom (🏳️🌈) as well as the ability to do a basic amount of research on the media farce that was the “tide pod challenge”.
Get back in the corner with your popcorn and idiocy.
Hey remember when Gen X got the slightest bit of pushback from Boomers and then gave the fuck up and decided to stand in the corner like ineffectual Daria’s for the rest of their lives because their worthless generation couldn’t figure out how to fight back?
Yeah, good times.
Literally no one cares what you think, Xer, and you did it to yourselves while lying to yourselves about how clever and above it all you were.
Boomers played you like chumps.
These useless kind of ‘trophies’ are part of the reason why Gen-X generally gave up on accepting anything advertised to them as being ‘good’.
MIllenials not gen X gen X got critacised for being good at things that boomers didn’t see as usefull which is the opposite and very diffrent problem
We literally organised the biggest anti-war protests in history and got roundly ignored. Or rather we got beaten bloody, many of us imprisoned, and we were ignored. We protested against the G8, again, beaten bloody & ignored. You’ll see. There’s no democracy any more, precious little class mobility. If you weren’t born rich chances are you’re not going to get rich, and you sure as sh!t aren’t getting anywhere in politics without huge lobbies behind you. You gotta be part of the system before they’ll let you speak. The boomers found the holes in the system with Vietnam, and promptly patched them so nobody could repeat their success.
they also either made everythign too exspensive for millenials or got it banned before we could use it hell when the drinking age got upped to 21 nationaly i had classmates that lost good paying jobs cause at the time in my state you couldn’t drink till 21 but you could be a server at 18
Speaking as an X, this X doesn’t speak for me. Real X’s know this Boomer vs Millennial bullshit was foisted on both of you by a ridiculous media who were looking for something to infuriate people in the 24hours news cycle, anyway.
And both of you idiots fell for it.
Not that anyone notices us enough to listen. 😉
[PS Anyone who says they’re Gen X and says anything about caring bathrooms is not Gen X. Our gen were into the gender benders. Bowie, Boy George. Just ignore them. If they get infuriated about being ignored, they’re actually boomers. 😉 ]
Oh wow. Classic boomer take from a gen-Xer who sounds like a 12yo 4channer.
There’s no such thing as a “geriatric millennial” – the oldest ‘millennials’ are 41 years old, and won’t be geriatric for another 24 years.
It’s the name for a micro generation of millennials born between 1980 and 1985. We didn’t make it up, it’s a thing now. https://mediachomp.com/how-to-care-for-your-geriatric-millennial-comic/
1977-83 is reffered to as Xelenial not “geriactric millenial” it’s the ppl at the end of gen x and the start of Gen Y that had cultural touchstones in common
