PHOENIX, May 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- "Millennials are entitled, disloyal, selfie-talking narcissists that need participation trophies." Sound familiar? In popular culture, these types of sentiments are often used to describe the Millennial generation. Millennial leaders James Goodnow and Ryan Avery believe these stereotypes are "fake news," and they have launched an online petition to help set the record straight.
Starting today, Goodnow and Avery are asking the public to sign their Millennials Day Petition, which calls on President Trump and lawmakers to declare June 19 as National Millennials Day, correcting stifling stereotypes about Millennials.
But isn't this petition the ultimate example of out-of-control Millennial egotism? Now Millennials want a day named after them? Not so fast. Rather than being a day about celebrating themselves, National Millennials Day will be one of service one where Millennials give back to their communities directly.
"As a Millennial, I cringe when I hear people write-off Millennials because of stereotypes" notes attorney James Goodnow. "For me, these are the worst kind of 'alternative facts.' Contrary to popular misconceptions, Millennials as a group are outward-focused and purpose-driven. My hope is that, by encouraging Millennials to give back on National Millennials Day, June 19 will be a turning point in upending many pervasive Millennial myths."

Let the whiners earn their day!
April 20 they have
Juneteenth already has its own meaning.
And it is about the opposite of the millennials’ experience.
Let the whiners earn their day!
Amen!
Whining and crying don’t qualify as winning.
Millennials. Give them the 1000th day of the year, every year.
Be careful who you push that to. 4 years ago or so, my neice’s fiancé was lugging a 240G (7.62x51 belt-fed MG) around some of the finer neighborhoods of Afghanistan as a Marine. He’s a good guy, not to be trifled with, and darn sure no snowflake.
Some Millennials are turning out very conservative these days. They may just be the beginning of the pendulum swinging back to normality.
Claimed false Millennial assumption: entitled, narcissistic, need participation trophies...
Demand: Their own day
Please tell me the guy didn’t take a selfie of himself making this demand.
>>>I thought they already had their own day: April 1.<<<
i thought that was obama’s holiday
How about filling every C5 we have with these gutless snowflakes? Off load them in Afganistan and let them fight their way home. Those that survive will have a new outlook on life. Wanna bet??
Then how about loading a couple C-5’s with everyone in Congress and off loading them in the hills of Afganistan as well? Give each of them a weapon and let them face ISIS and Al Qaeda and see who survives. They sit safely in DC like Kings and Queens on a throne meanwhile real American heroes protect and defend this nation.
The gutless snowflakes and political Kings and Queens don’t deserve to be called Americans. Let them go out to Arlington and beg forgiveness from those who truly sacrificed it all.
“Millennial leaders”
LOL
GO AWAY !
Go back in your Safe Spaces !
Ariana shows her true colors...
Give them zero.
Yes, I agree about what to give them.
I’d still love to see someone slap some common sense into them. That would be worth the price of admission.
The dumb bimbo needs to be sent on a one way trip to Saudi Arabia, without her body guards and without a male escort. Let’s see how long that “love” lasts.
Many Millineals think that way unfortunately.....and it’s people like Ariana that feed them in their music and what they say....who has no clue about the real world whatsoever.
Hollywood is so out of touch with what is real because they ONLY see the world they manufacture in their own heads.
That is why she needs a one way trip to SA. Heck, they all do.
Much too often. 30 Feb.
Yeah, maybe they can trash the economy for the next few generations, like the Boomers did for them.
Millennials (some of them) are rightly laughed at for the participation trophy mindset, but who was handing out the participation trophies?
