Muffins and Scones don't have donuts and don't deserve your derision. Also I have enough common sense not to swear in front of customers.

I felt I was in 3rd world country when I saw my gov. doing this. Didn't realise its the norm.

A bell rings as a young mother on vacation enters the front door holding her three-year-old child by the hand. She gazes in wonder at the huge menu board above the counter.

Young Mother: What a beautiful morning! Y'all have so many kinds of bagels! Which flavor do you recommend?

REPO Narrows his eyes, forming a slight, wry smile.

REPO: Sesame. I could --FUCK HARD-- with some sesame bagels. They are incredible. Can I interest you in a few?

...

Young Mother: Why yes! We'll take half a dozen and two large coffees, no room for cream.

Young Mother turns to her daughter

Young Mother: Daddy is going to be so surprised when we get back to the condo with breakfast!


Cut. Print. That's a wrap, folks!

I'll be 37 in July. So technically I'm Gen Y.

That seems like millennial territory, not Gen y.

Yeah, I think you're thinking of Gen X or Gen Z. Gen Y are Millennials.

It's all bullshit, though.

Addendum: another fun article.

Yes, this stuff is all BS. I concur. The lines are all blurry and mostly it makes for catchy headlines. Can’t tell you how tired I am of “Millenials ruined xxx” or whatever.
