Every generation goes through a unique set of joys and challenges, and millennials are in no way an exception. Born somewhere between 1981 and 1996, they have lived through numerous significant events in history that shaped them into the thirty/forty-somethings we know and cherish today. For example, they’ve witnessed the rise of the internet, which is one of the reasons they’re typically quick to adapt to new technology (at the same time cherishing memories of burning their favorite songs onto a CD).

Shared on the subreddit titled exactly that—’Millennials’—they cover everything from their daily struggles now to nostalgia-filled memories about life back in the day, and much more.
