i would prefer to see more millennials run down !
let your presentation be something different fool. why would you want to see millennials run down!? im a millennial and i bet i could run you down. I run a 4.5 40 yard dash boy you aint. Lets see if you can run without anyone touching you.
Hey Speedy McMillennial, in the greater balance of things, you might want to run more grammar exercises than running your mouth, or even running around in circles ever so coyly teasing the boys to touch you.
No touching !
mr or misses millenial hater, what generation are you from? Im guessing your a childless cat lady? cause a real man wouldnt say that, and a young person probably wouldnt say that, so that leaves one of those genders in the middle and a woman. But your probably a feminist or a transgender. If you want to get super general in your articulation of running down millenials, then lets figure out who you are. And if you had a child, you could only be a women cause men cant have babies even tho there are emojis for that. SO that leaves you as being most likely childless owning a cat. Is this correct?
Y’all can’t touch me. I’m on a whole different level.
Stupid comment!
It’s so sad seeing that a woman was killed. The focus should be on that and the loss her family is enduring. Let’s stop being childish with the snarky comments about millennials, etc. And no, I’m not a millennial.
That’s a crazy parking lot. I park in the back and walk around.
Millennials are the last generation who was raised right. And we’re in our primes.
Be careful around us. We don’t have much to loose
that’s a joke right?
Are we really discussing the best age of pedestrian to murder?
It’s better that we all come to an agreement than to just let everyone do as they please. It’s called the rule of law.
