    Empathetic? 

    I don't think I know much about them.  I don't tweet too much.

    I don't take photos all day of everything I ate. I don't go to raves.  I don't wear suits.  I don't follow the crowd.

    I don't know a damn thing, actually.  I am working with a lot of them.  They seem okay, but they are massage therapists which are a different breed.  We have that healer thing built into us. 

    But they still have zero personality unless you get to know them.  I am half kid anyway, so I can bond with almost anyone who is not mature.

    When I was in massage school I was in HELL most of the time.  I could not relate to them, not because they were millenials, but because they were so young, mostly Latino and just not interested in me at all.

    So, I had to resort to what I always do.  I made myself stand out.  I was as funny as I could be and they warmed up to me.  It took a LONG time. LONG time.  But I needed them because I had to practice with them so I tried everything.  Making them laugh was the best method.  They do have senses of humor about some things.  This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at August 25, 2017 11:02 AM MDT

    The youngest generation always get the attention, I know it used you be you, but now it no longer is. Get used to it. That is just the way it is.

    I don't remember getting any attention. Oooh, they talked about Kurt Cobain for a while. Wow.

    Yes, but you need to have a whiney abuse story to fit in.

    I care.  I care a LOT.

    What I don't care about is whether or not they care about me.  Who cares?  Let them care about whatever they want to care about.

    You seem to be missing some of the negative characteristics or your gen.  Good for you (and Im sure your parents get credit too).
