Uh, so, older millennials reached adulthood around 9/11

You know, starting in the year 2000. That’s why we’re called millennials. I was on my second marriage by 2008.

What child and/or Boomer wrote this fuckshit
I didn’t reach voting age right when the Supreme Court said fuck voters let’s have george bush and then watch my country descend into endless wars and the evisceration of civil rights to be told “well it really all started in 2008”
Folks it’s fine if you were born in the late 80s nobody is pulling your millennial creds

I’m merely saying that definitionally millennials are the first generation to be adults after the turn of the millennium and if you were ten then, you weren’t an adult that year

It’s fine
Additionally you don’t have to explain 2008 to me; I am sorry if you were so unlucky as to walk into that job market but hot damn it wasn’t nicer if you were 26 with no college, I promise you

And “getting through college” isn’t the same as “adult” legally speaking
Like it’s cool if you extended your youth via your undergrad but you were still a fucking adult when you turned 18 and it’s super weird if you think those of us who didn’t get that lucky somehow delayed adulthood through your undergrad
