Millennials: we divide opinion, don't we? Never before has there been a generation that receives such an amount of scorn for simply existing. Whatever we do, the newspapers jump on. Yes, we like to brunch; yes, we like technology and yes, maybe we do spend a bit more on avocados than we should. But, there's a reason why we do all of this: we have nothing else to spend our money on.
Despite what you older folks may think, being a millennial is tough. A failed housing market and flawed financial system mean that - for us at least - the future looks pretty bleak. With no chance of owning a home anytime soon and grim financial prospects lingering on the horizon, why shouldn't we enjoy spending our money on holidays, clothes and artisan bread?
Regardless of the doom and gloom, we have retained our sense of humour. And below, you will find 13 of the best jokes about being a millennial in the present day.
1. Burn 2. It's true though 3. Realistically, this is our only hope 4. It's a never-ending cycle 5. I'm still wondering 6. The worst way to spend an afternoon 7. Yeah, I mean, I dunno about the anime bit 8. Take that, JANET 9. Myspace 10. But who would be there to write it while getting paid minimum wage? 11. He is living the millennial dream 12. How DARE they!? 13. It's all in the detailsWhile these jokes are hilarious, it's sort of a laughing through tears humour. Next time you get annoyed at millennials, remember that you're more than likely sitting in the comfort of your home (which you own) while working a stable, secure job that pays you well. Now, let us enjoy our brunch in peace.
