Just three months after the murderous violence Charlottesville residents were subjected to by a mob of white supremacists chanting “you will not replace us,” voters did just that by electing Black Lives Matter activist Braxton Winston to city council. 40% of Charlottesville city councilors are now African-American, which is double the proportion of African-Americans in the city as a whole.
character being all “you expect me to do X?” Gilligan Cut to character doing X
the squad gets captured and interrogated separately, and they’re all telling equally terrible, completely contradictory lies
people completely missing the completely unsubtle, very visible dangerous thing in the room with them
alternatively, people absolutely seeing the completely unsubtle, very visible dangerous thing in the room with them and just not giving a shit
bonus points if it’s a beleaguered minimum wage employee who just goes about their business like “yep same shit as always”
someone pretending they don’t know another character is eavesdropping, only to casually reveal at the end of the scene that they know (*leaving* “tell tom that he can come out now” *tom drops from the ceiling in spy gear, irritated*)
choosing to deal with the villain by just leaving them alone in a room with another character
the “hands go down” trope
example: “any questions?” *everyone’s hands go up* “…that AREN’T sarcastic?” *everyone’s hands go down*
how could all y'all forget “ACT NATURAL!”
These are all great but let’s not forget two characters giving extremely biased flashbacks to the same event that each paint the other as an incompetent loon
i would like to respectfully add: scenes where a character walks into a room, sees something scary, and turns around and walks out with no reaction or change of expression
Bonus points if he DOES react, but it’s to close the door and tell his buddy “it’s for you.”
The oldest millennials right now are 35. They were born in 1982 and turned 18 in the year 2000.
Gen Z started in the late 90′s or 2000, depending on your opinion.
But for certain, if you were born after 2000, YOU ARE NOT A MILLENNIAL.
The youngest millennials are just about 18 years old right now if you end the Millennial Generation in 2000.
18-35. We are your millennials.
“Younger millennials” are actually Gen Z.
THIS ALL STEMS FROM OUR PARENTS CONTINUING TO INFANTILIZE US.
Millennials are full-grown fucking adults in their twenties and thirties!!!
MILLENNIALS ARE NOT TEENAGERS, MILLENNIALS ARE NOT CHILDREN.
(there is nothing wrong with being a teenager. you’re awesome and great, welcome to Gen Z by the way, also called the iGeneration)
Thissss. No one can really agree when the millennials “end”, but most say between 95-97. Which means that millennials are all over 20, and as a group we’re in the work force now.
Yep, exactly. Millennials aren’t little kids, but the media still treats us that way.
“Millennials” has just become a catchall term for “kids these days” with relation to our coming of age in a different millennium from our parents.
We already have asshole millennials writing shitty anti-millennial thinkpieces. This may be a term that’s mutating beyond its origins.
