ExiledInIllinois

I resent this thread! @Gugny wouldn't know how to swing a gate even if it was wearing a silk sundress coming out of the sun running like a watercolor in the rain during the year of the cat. You'll hear from my attorney @BringBackFergy and his Jr. Associate@Cripple Creek

Ha! I buying them from Krazy Kaplan in Dyer, Indiana... Think I need to switch to Phantom Fireworks in Hobart? Maybe it's because I am launching them from Illinois, think they know I am bringing them over the state line? ??

I deleted my posts. Nothing like talking about generations without getting political. That's like launching a bottle rocket and hitting the moon. Yeah, that will really work. You forgot... Have a million + YouTube subscribers, make a ton of $$$ and think the earth is flat and believe humans never went to the moon. Gotta love the influencers of future generations! And maybe some wack-a-doos from previous generations. /smh

Even more special... They stopped making the Fiero 10 years earlier in 1988. Of course that's a typo on your part? I betcha @Hapless Bills Fan is very proud of the car. Just a little tidibit of trivia (SOURCE: WikiInIllinois): "The word fiero means "very proud" in Italian, and "wild", "fierce", or "ferocious" in Spanish"

@BringBackFergy @Cripple Creek This is a test. This is only a test. No. No hell. You Sir, got your Disney money's worth. I betcha @BringBackFergy 's family was devastated.

My niece from Vermont is going to school in Wilmington... Loves it there!

My mother did with father, but it was with sunburn skin peeling. Who knows what the hell went on beyond the prying eyes of others! LoL... She should have been a dermatologist, if you had a blackhead on face, etc... She'd take care of it. Not sure if she actively seeked and destroyed... LoL... It's a sign She really loves you! My wife now, are you kidding me! Way too low brow from of grooming/PDA. LMAO. You're on your own!!!

Some of this I agree with! Yet... Just like the Great Depression, they have two feet, they can move. I have a 20 year old house... Built in 1996 for $150K... It's worth $40k Less now. I am close to Chicago market, there are jobs here. It's in a decent, but 100 year old, town. All new houses around it... Deals can be had near where jobs are. The economy is humming (slight sarcasm there).

NEWSFLASH: Almost everybody in society has entitlement and narcissistic tendencies. It's individualistic culture that has been ramped up in the last 40 years. Too many choices, too identity driven. Most want to be special and treated special. It's preached to us in everything. Got an app? Go to the front of the line!

There is a joke in here, but I am better than that! I learned my lesson. Don't trigger. I will save that for @Cripple Creek 's BearCam® thread... @BringBackFergy likes that kinda thing! But... I agree. DisneyFreaks, especially Childless Millennial Disney Freaks need to be placed on a reservation or held in cages at the Southern Border OR just kept penned into Animal Kingdom (who really goes to Animal Kingdom anyway?, The Yeti is way over-rated) like a bad virus locked away in a vault! Ooops, I said too much, The Warden is coming to take away my internet pass!

No. Because when the are all ancient, which they are 1/2 there already... I don't want to see their azz out on the street. I live up North. We are a compassionate country. This ain't Maricopa County. It gets to -30°F here. Huh? They get something back: "Social Security" Millennials will want a yacht.

Wow! Guess what, that comment cements it, their a Millennial! If it goes to court... That's Exhibit A. You should have read them their Miranda Rights! They're toast!

Not always win/win. But NOT lose/lose! I come back with nothing less than middle outcome! win/lose... And may even accept lose/win if the right people die! LoL...

Thanks for correcting! I keep calling the Silent Generation the Lost Generation. My bad. All references above to Lost Generation, should be be deemed Silent Generation. My parents were Silent Generation and model the Xers to an extent. Greatest had the Boomers. Boy THAT is a 180° about face. Too many terms here. My bad. LoL... Not the first time I confuse, and won't be the last!

Boomer? ? Just giving ya heck! J/K There is always this approach:

I think Caroline used it in a sarcastic, mocking way... IIRC... Used to put down Harriet & Nellie Oleson. Nels, the father wasn't a horrible human being. FWIW... I may be mistaken.

It was the Silent Generation. Born out of the counter-culture.

LoL... I used to totally think that. We are at a breaking point now in my daughter's life... I will keep your post handy to guide me and keep me from cracking! (I understand key word here is: mitigated. It wasn't lost on me) They ain't paying anything. LoL... How is payment handled? If you don't mind me asking. Venmo, Facebook, etc... The $$$$$ ?? +1

FaceBook, social media will be the end of civilization. We are cascading, careening towards the sewer... Cicling the drain at the end of the flume ride! SAVE US CHARLIE BROWN! SAVE US!

Childless Millennials going to Disney do suck nuts... Can't argue with that. Buuuut, and that's a big butt... Complaining about them because you can't get your kid an over-priced pretzel is just as bad! LoL This is where deplorable and snowflake merge as one... Doing 98 on the shoulder trying to get over! Too many people too few resources. @LeviF91 is lining up the firing squad, GET YOUR TICKETS EARLY!!! E-ride ticket to Nirvana!!!

I think the SYSTEM OF communism is evil because people make it evil. Human nature. I don't mind sharing and working for others... I Don't want something for nothing and don't mind working for nothing. Go figure... @LeviF91 Yeah... You're a Xer... But watch your step Mister! You'll go down the worm hole. Oh... Another question... Who'd they vote for in 1968? You say Nixon and I will rethink my position! LoL...

Those are my children. God save them is right...

Tough one here. My father was in Korea. I will cut you slack and give you Xer. But you are more Millennial. LoL... Never high expectations for Xers. We were the slackers. We we the first ones to have the hippy way of teaching taught to us in elementary school. No. I worked with a guy that was born in 1955. He turned 18 in 1973 and his parents said: "Leave, or start paying us rent." They could sublet his room for more... LoL

Here is a question! Who's on their parent's cellphone plan? Whoever is... Is DEFINITELY a Millennial! And in the rare occasion their parent's are pn theirs, then they are still a Millennial... Just a well off one helping their Boomer parents. Now... My in-laws are Lost Generation. I finally had to say stop being bled dry with an individual plan on an obsolete 2010 flip phone. I gave them a iPhone 4s (new battery) and for $20 more on my Verizon plan... They get unlimited everything. I tell them it's free... Or they simply would stop using a CellPhone. They are in 80s and closest family is 400-500 miles away. My BiL further, out West. Mostly suck. LoL... My Bro just lamenting how his 33 year old is still on his cell plan. Now, like I said above, that's okay if she is dealing with a 10 year old phone and it's only $20/month extra.

When were your parents born? If pre-1950...Would define you as Xer... So much overlap. But you are Xer, but have Millennial leaning. I would define Xers as NOT children of Boomers. BUT push definition of Boomers to 1950-1955. There is lots of overlap here. No set definitions. My daughter is having a hell of a time @ 17. Nobody wants to take risk unless she is 18. That's NOT a parent issue. I am talking normal jobs, corporate, retail, etc... I keep on reiterating... Millennials are also defined as Echo Boomers. They Echo their parents. Millennials will be fine. They have the numbers on their side.
