Waging war on millennial memes
Gen Y loves their memes and both millennials and marketers are using them more and more to connect to younger audiences but we are propelling a false and negative stereotype? Tym Yee asks do we need a war on meme?
We can’t afford houses. We’re over educated. We spend money. The job market is an asshole.
Yes, we millennials face a depressing lot in life.
I feel, however, that despite the aforementioned circumstances and being on the receiving end of an endless flow of you’re-screwedisms, up until only recently we’ve been able to stand our ground.
We’ve been known to scoff at unreasonable requests made to us in the workplace, disparage the silent cries of our Gen X counterparts struggling to raise young families, and we’ve never once stopped to second guess our entrepreneurial abilities – no matter how stupid the app idea.
Thinks he understands ageism:
– Writes an article that is unconsciously bias…
@willywonka has army of Oompa Loompas – does own trolling?
Go and live somewhere where housing is actually affordable ie not Sydney.
Best not to live in Sydney and complain – Sydney is a very nice place to live so of course there will be competition in housing. Same as any large international City.
I hear that Adelaide and Hobart are nice places with affordable housing options.
Willy wonka – an empty but pointedly snide remark – 2 points.
Tym – top kek
Stop whingeing – you sure slayed this piece with that showstopper. You shut down all of this fine lad’s points with that one obvious (and vaguely reminiscent of white Australia rhetoric) solution.
Can really tell y’all respect young writers offering their best coverage of a dialect you clearly do not know a dang about.
Double ups – you brought racism and elitism into the equation – I was merely stating a fact. With the average house price at about 13 times the average wage, the Sydney property market is very challenging for first home buyers. No need to turn this into a different debate.
