(15,675 posts)And have never used it.
Other things that Millennials are having an effect on according to articles I've read
Napkins - Why buy napkins and paper towels? I've also been doing this waaaay before Milennials were
Golf Course Membership - Fully support this and eagerly await the day that we put George Carlin's idea of turning them into homeless shelters into practice
Corked wine - apparently there's no difference in how you seal your wine, with a cork or a screw cap, and they've been going the easier route. I honestly don't care since I don't drink
Vacations - They're not busting their collective hump working for the man just so they can go on a big vacation once a year but are finding a more healthy work-leisure time balance. I've also been doing this for several years.
Diamond wedding rings - Never married and probably never will be, but I think the diamond industry is evil, so if Millennials kill it off, that's fine by me.
Apparently, I was Millennial before Millennials. Still, I've had the neck-bearded little snots criticize the kind of sandwich I get at Subway (while they're making it) so there is a chasm between us.
There was a brain teaser I read about how the muffler industry went out of business when the automobile started getting more popular at the turn of the 20th century. The muffler they were referring to were the furry thing women put their hands into to keep them warm while riding in buggies, etc. Damn millennials are no good no matter what century it is!
