Every time I go on Facebook I end up encountering yet another viral ‘self-help’ article geared towards millennials. Granted, we’re a pretty simple group to figure out (ridden with debt and perpetually staring at the glass ceiling that happens to be the skylight in our parents’ house’s den) but trying to pigeonhole us into a tired, embittered entity is getting exhausting in itself.

The following is a selection of article concepts that don’t have their messages hidden in-between superfluous words and the flask full of vodka the author managed to dump in their protein smoothie.
