Kids will be kids and think they know everything. I would bet that most of these tools are under 25.

Pretty much. I get called a goddamn child by these people, because all I do is make fun of them and troll their shitty arguments instead of actively engaging them; getting told to turn off the computer in my mom's basement and do something with my life.
Naw, bitch. I'm older than you and have my shit together, that's why it's so much fun for me to watch you pout. Go jerk off to some more cartoon horsey porn while looking on craigslist for someone to peg you.

One can only hope. At least some of us millennials were closer to the older generation, on the spectrum. I was lucky enough to have really old parents (they had me in their mid 40s). We got raised the old-school way, surrounded by an ocean of our mentally-and-emotionally-watered-down peers. We grew up in to adults a lot sooner while people, even < 3 years younger than I, are still living with their parents trying thinking they're going to become the next fucking Tiesto, as they work part time at McDonalds and do nothing but smoke weed and watch cartoons all day.
It's pathetic. When I was 18 and in university, we'd stay up to the crack of dawn discussing philosophy, growing intellectually, and expanding our minds with differing points of view. We all came out better people for it. I can't give anyone < 20 any wisdom these days, IRL, without being called a racist, misogynistic bigot.
Here's to hoping the real world gives them the education that schools refused to, instead of moulding and conforming to their sensibilities.

I agree with you. But damn, it is weird to watch venerable institutions fire some seasoned administrator because students or bloggers got all agida and the admin misunderstood how chicken shitted his bosses could be simply to smooth ruffled feathers.
