This is the thing that gets me with a lot of this stuff too.

"Millenials don't know how to do x or y!"

Maybe because you didn't show us...

Or it's not a useful skill to have.

You millennials can't write cursive, put up wallpaper, or use a rotary phone! So dumb!

Now can someone help me with my computer? It says windows is updating but I'm not sure if that means Russians are hacking my bank account.

We had to write cursive through middle school until all papers had to be typed. Also have put up wallpaper, it was stupid, and actually still have a rotary phone in my house. Granted it's just for retro-look to cover up the landline phone jack in the wall.
