I cant wait to see what us Millenials complain about the younger generation doing, ignoring the fact that were probably responsible for it.

Those damn youngins are going to be a mess one way or another!

The thing about participation trophies is that the kids who receive them, they hate participation trophies as much as the adults.

It doesn't make kids feel entitled to shit. Kids seem to be genuinely embarrassed by receiving them actually, like it's shitty.

This, it's basically a trophy that says "You Suck!"

The term "zoomer" is derived from changing one letter in "boomer", and only came about because of seething mad juvephobes trying to counter the "thirty year old boomer" meme

The youngest boomers are 55 and the oldest millennials are 40. Boomers are typically parents of millennials

Millennials are closer to 30/40 than 20. My parents had me when they were around 30. Most parents of millennials are boomers.

Gen X'ers were in their 20's/early 30's around that time.

Gen X really are the forgotten generation, lol.

I was gonna mention this too. I'm a millennial in my thirties and my parents are both Gen X (early twenties when they had me).

Most boomers are in their 60s, but the baby boom continued until 1964. Late 50s are still boomers

I'm 35. We all did get honorable mention ribbons for the science fair in grade school.

It didn't feel like a trophy to me lol. There's still bigger, better, ribbons, trophies for the actual winners.

The whole "Era" thing is just a way to keep us fighting against each other. Who really gives a shit about this? What we should be doing is working together to make this world a better place.

Honestly as a kid I did put my participation trophies on display. I was never going to get a trophy legitimately and they were cool to look at.

Participation trophies are not a good thing, being competitive is what keeps the species strong and how we get the best athletes, and the best minds to do amazing things. Rewarding mediocre or people who are not actually good only hurts them in the long run and does not have them strive to do better and actually earn a trophy.

Cooperation, and our abilities to facilitate that, is actually what separates humans from the rest.

Are you actually making the case that humans are the only species that cooperates? Really? Even ants can do that.

Yes people do work together but would you want to reward the weak/stupid and have them work together in a leadership role or have the best and brightest have the leadership and work together ??

With the strongest and smartest progress is made, history is made, world wonders are created, and society keeps improving. If you reward the weaker and dumber people over the best you not only fuck the society but you create a very bad future.

Look at the movie Idiocracy fora perfect example.

I never understood he issue with them. No one who gets one of these things think they really won. It is just something that says good job for trying nothing more.

I remember one football player made a big to do about returning his girls trophy and I was thinking. You ain't win Superbowl this year should you give back your check .
