How can I behave less like a millennial?

Hi, monkeys! These days I read something where a millennial was complaining of being discriminated because she was a millennial (and how much she suffered and does not feel appreciated, blah blah). This made me obsess over the way millennials behave and I noticed how annoying they (or we, the lines dividing the generations are blurry, so I may be one). I also noticed how you can't be a cry baby on Wall Street. I've also noticed some streaks of that behavior on myself. So, what do you think one can do to behave 'less millennial'? Are there things that make you annoyed with that particular age group? Thank you in advance!

P.S.: If someone gets offended by this and throws monkey shit at me, you're basically signing your name on the sensitive, 'everything that will be wrong with our future list'. I know disobeying orders probably feels like a great way to show how authentic you are, but just don't.

"Angel Molester" Instead of eating your avocado on toast like other trash millenials, stick your weiner in it for fun!

Yeah! Stick it to the man!

A good start would be deleting this post. Three sentences after bashing millennials for their inability to accept any sort of criticism or disapproval you throw a temper tantrum over getting monkey shit.

 

There is no such thing as a millennial, your a human being. If your so insecure about what other people think about you you need a reality check and should not be working at Wall St. Grow up who gives a shit about what people think. Just be you, if they hate so what?

Besides the obvious improper grammar, this is deep.

Very deep.
