my favorite Millennial Thing™ is when a group of us are standing around and talking and someone asks a question that no one knows the answer to and suddenly it’s a race to get out your phone and google it and be the first to know, and then someone starts reading the Wikipedia article about the thing aloud to everyone else, and what started as a casual conversation is now A Learning Opportunity and we all walk away a little more knowledgeable about a random topic

Like, Boomers hate when we do that, but I think it’s one of the best things about us.

So long as we have internet or a cell signal, all of the world’s collective knowledge is at our fingertips, and damned if we aren’t going to use it.

Make sure to have at least one writer in every group chat who asks things out of the blue like ‘if I put plant poison on a weapon is that technically envenoming it’ or whatever, and then suddenly your whole circle of friends knows that poison is any material which disrupts the functionality of an organism, toxin is a subset of poison which is produced within the cells of an organism, and a venom is a subset of toxin which is produced by an animal with the intent of injecting it into another animal.
