I had to laugh when I came across this on the internet – Vulnerable Narcissism.

Have you ever wondered why 20 years ago and beyond, the few who argued with the refs were universally regarded as psychos and basket-cases. But now in the new millennium everyone and his brother-in-law has to voice their opinion. Here is a clue. Vulnerable Narcissism is apparently at epidemic in the ‘millennials’, and here are some of its common trait

Sense of Entitlement

a constant victimization mentality

Lack of emotion regulation

Non-linear feelings (a.k.a. blowing things out of proportion)


…so now you know why

I would agree with this, but for in my experience, its the older generation player/coach/fan/brother-in-law that are the worst :D

Not at all saying that those traits are not common in my fellow millenials though!
