Many Millennials Aren't Eating Cereal Because It's Too Inconvenient To Wash the Bowl Afterwards, Study Says

Never believe a study, unless it confirms your already-existing chauvinisms.

So I'll buy into this one:

Almost 40 percent of the millennials surveyed by Mintel for its 2015 report said cereal was an inconvenient breakfast choice because they had to clean up after eating it.

I wonder if this could have anything to do with anything.

A 2014 national survey, conducted by Braun Research, found that 82 percent of parents said they were asked to do chores as children. But when they were asked if they required their children to do chores, only 28 percent of them said yes.

And this generational shift in how families raise their kids seems to be turning even the most mundane of responsibilities, like doing the dishes, into unthinkable nuisances.

I've run my own global climate models, and my forecast is that we'll be buried in special snowflakes for the next 30 years.
