(3,166 posts)I just get tired of the constant millennial-bashing (and I'm not one - I am completely Gen X). People seem to think that millennials are in high school or college, but millennials are now all adults - and the oldest ones are now pushing 40.
Anyway, I wouldn't mind going to Disney World if no kids were allowed for a day - I think that would be GREAT!

We went there with our sons when they were 8 and 10. We wanted both to be tall enough to go on everything, and maybe remember some of it.

(3,678 posts)They said "nicknames aren't allowed" or something. It was a computer handle and wasn't insulting/perverse in any way. Then my friend told them it was short for "Charles" and then they did it anyway.
To the matter at hand...
"DW is a FAMLY amusement park!!!! yet these IMMATURE MILLENNIALS THROW THEIR MONEY AWAY ON USELESS CRAP!!!"
Please. Every goddamn thing you can purchase at a Disney park is overpriced garbage. All of it. Every toy. Every piece of food. Everything.
That woman is 1-thousand-moms level seriousness.
