    We've had:

    The greatest generation
    Baby boomers
    Tweeners
    Gen Xers
    Gen Y
    And finally......
    Millennials

    Now, it seems that we have: Generation Cupcake

    Narcissistic beyond words and offended by most everything.



    Now..... Get Off My Lawn.

    While we're talking about narcissists..."The Greatest Generation"? Lol!

    Maybe "Greatest generation" should be called "The last generation to actually DO anything"... but they are almost all gone now anyway, so yeah, we're pretty much in trouble with Senior Boomers, Retiring Tweeners; GenX,Y,Millenial left to get it all done? All the while trying not to offend the cupcakes. OH we're *KITTEN* (FYI I'm included in this mess: I'm a GenX, just finishing raising a Millennial)

    In the 1940's, the greatest generation of 19 and 20 year olds traveled to places called Guadalcanal, Omaha Beach, Iwo Jima & Kasserine Pass ..... just to name a few.

    Generation Cupcake needs counseling for being offended by Halloween costumes deemed offensive on college campuses.

    This is what every older generation thinks about every younger generation EVER

    There is quite a bit of truth in this. There's also a lot of Generation Cupcake individuals that are spectacular people.

    Is cupcake just a subset of Millennial or does it stand on its own? I see a lot of overlap lol

    I see Generation Cupcake as a subset of Millennial.

    The pussification of a generation. It's okay, they will grow up to someday scoff at younger generations themselves.

    I think all the generational talk has merit. I also think the pussification (Motorsheen, 2016) has increased substantially in the past 10-12 years.
    I teach and its constant how much babyness just flows thru these kids. Technology has definitely sped up the process.

    Tsk tsk... change the y to an i and add -ness. You must teach Math. :# Jk jk jk...Now don't get all butthurt about it, Teacher :p (nice work on the citation, though... I'll def give give you that.)

    Perfection Disorder. Its just sooooooo hard *polishes tiara*

    Just kidding. I'll go with CCD mixed with a little SID. Coffee Consumption Disorder haunts my life, and Sunday Infatuation Disorder can be downright dehibilitating. Each week, Sunday becomes that special lover who I've found & now refuse to release. But Sunday's had it with my *kitten* and is on his way out the door after 24 hrs. I'll never be able to trust fall into Sunday.. never. :'(

    Mine is learning

    As an art teacher, I 100% agree with this. I haven't been teaching 10 years, but basically have been in a combination of studying to be a teacher and actually being one for the last 10, and I have noticed a decline in both a willingness to learn and respect in just that amount of time. Love my job, but some days I'm flabbergasted by behaviors.

    No wonder we are crazy. We willingly go into the mouth of the beast, daily. Ahaha.

    I'm agoraphobic and have social anxiety. I'm fortunate enough to only be stuck in a 5 mile radius which is pretty good considering some agoraphobics don't leave their houses. However I don't have many friends because of my issues. But mfp has me feeling not so lonely

    I have a small case of that. Mostly with my beard or eyebrows. Do it without realizing it sometimes.
