Report: Millennials Want to Ban Popular Christmas Game Because it ‘Gives Them Anxiety’
Keely Sharp
November 25, 2019

Leave it to Millennials to take a good thing and mess it all up! I am truly embarrassed to fall into the same generational category as these snowflakes!

Daily Wire reported that Millennials want to ban the popular Christmas game known as “Secret Santa” according to a new study done by the job-hunting website, Jobsite. They claim that the game is “stressful” and induces anxiety.

    “Secret Santa” is, of course, a regular practice among work colleagues during the holidays. It’s often preferred to other practices because organizers can limit the budget spent on gifts, and it doesn’t align with any specific religious holiday, so it doesn’t leave anyone out of the loop (though, of course, jolly ol’ St. Nick is identified with Christmas).

You would think they would embrace the practice. After all it is really just an extension of the "Participation Trophy" only for the workplace.  Just show up and get a gift!

What doesn't give millennials anxiety?  Inquiring minds want to know.  :shrug:
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Exactly!  Free shit is free shit.

Secret Santa gives them "anxiety"?  A little spiked egg nog ought to soothe those jangled nerves.

I thought for sure this would have to do with the game where people stole presents from one another. (We always had a blast at this at work until people started taking it seriously)

But Secret Santa? Come on guys and man up...you can do it!!

Indeed.  Seems to me this generation, as a whole, is compromised of  way too many delicate snowflakes.  A number of exceptions, of course, but I wonder what a lot of these kids would do in really hard, calamitous times.    If they get all upset over Secret Santa, how would they survive a natural disaster, for example?  I'll bet most of them wouldn't.
