I guess someone can not take a joke. Here is the story: An Alabama minor league baseball team's plans for a "Millennial Night," - complete with participation ribbons and napping and selfie stations - has some people fuming. "Want free things without doing much work? Well you're in luck!" the ad from the Montgomery Biscuits reads. "Riverwalk Stadium will be Millennial friendly on Saturday, July 21st with a participation ribbon giveaway just for showing up, napping and selfie stations, along with lots of avocados."

Actually, this is genius marketing! ...let him who has no sword sell his robe and buy one. Luke 22:35-36 NAV "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves." Matthew 10:16 NASV | |||

They failed to provide safe areas to retreat to when the millennials were triggered. | |||

My stepdaughter (23 years old and thoroughly believes in competition, and compassion, for those she [cordially] defeats) and I are laughing at that - pure genius. Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The only bad publicity is your obituary.

This actually prompted me to get a team t-shirt as a show of support. "You know, Scotland has its own martial arts. Yeah, it's called Fuck You. It's mostly just head butting and then kicking people when they're on the ground." - Charlie MacKenzie (Mike Myers in "So I Married an Axe Murderer") | |||

I understood everything but the avocados. "I'm yet another resource-consuming kid in an overpopulated planet raised to an alarming extent by Hollywood and Madison Avenue, poised with my cynical and alienated peers to take over the world when you're old and weak!" - Calvin, "Calvin & Hobbes" | |||

Probably this. "Marrero’s third politically-correct demand is her most bizarre: “Stop calling guacamole ‘guac.'” Her argument is that guacamole, as a word, “has significance as it comes from indigenous Nahuatl language, so please make the effort to pronounce it in its entirety.”" Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

Bama nailed it - it’s an avocado toast joke. | |||

That’s awesome! But the avacado thing is only a recent co-opting by the millennials I guess. I have been eating avacado on salad and having fresh guacamole for my entire life. Growing up where they are available year round makes you jaded I guess. Plus my grandfather had a avacado tree | |||

They'll need a "Sweating Station" as well. Hotter than hell down here now. RMD TL Davis: “The Second Amendment is special, not because it protects guns, but because its violation signals a government with the intention to oppress its people…” Remember: After the first one, the rest are free. | |||
