Frink is afraid of the Truth™

He is perfect in almost every way but that has always been his one weakness.

He also thinks that morbid obesity is a health benefit. I doubt that anyone other than a millennial would think such a foolish thing.

Are you insinuating Henry VIII was a time traveller?

Most millennials I talk to don’t know who Humphrey Bogart is, therefore Casablanca. What a sad world. Meanwhile I don’t know anything they talk about, but I’m physically repulsed by a lot of it.

They also call VCRs, VHS players, and it bothers me.

Generation X made and raised most of millennials. When an atrocity is made, you naturally blame the perpetrators, not the atrocity.

Not exactly true, Millennials were mostly made and raised by the Baby Boomers. Gen-X is responsible for the Plurals. They overlap like that.

Are they not interchangeable terms? Always thought so.

But who calls them that? They were always called VCRs, nobody called them VHS players. Hell, most people didn’t even call them VHS tapes, it was just a tape or video, Betamax tapes were Beta, nobody got confused. It just sounds stupid.

What really cracks me up was when I had a young guy correct me from saying VCR to VHS player. That’s just wrong.

I didn’t even know people were saying VHS player. That’s weird.

Keep Circulating the Tapes.

All the things you mentioned that annoy you are traits of late Millennials, which are almost entirely a responsibility of Gen-X. Early Millennials, which are responsibility of Baby Boomers, experienced VCR players and they usually know old films (seen them on TV) as internet was not so common at the time.

Gen-X seems to be incapable of raising up kids properly. That is not only useless, but also harmful to the society.

How very…millennial. Instead of encouraging the taking personal responsibility, he promotes the blaming others for his own generation’s failings. Yes, we all find life easier when we blame our shortcomings on the shortcomings of others. Keep up the prototypical work, imperialscum.

I am an external observer here. I do not belong to either Gen-x nor late Millennials.

Oh, sorry. I forgot you were without beginning of days, nor end of years, the Alpha and the Omega. My bad.
