Millennials Serve Up Stylized F*@K You to Baby Boomers in Reebok Classics Ad

Offering up yet another proof point that Millennials are just a bunch of whiny-assed punks with no regard for what came before them (oh come on, we stereotype), Reebok is out with a new two minute ode to its Reebok Classics entitled “Give Me Your Classics And I’ll Show You the Future.”

In the video a British youth begins by parroting back the laments of his elders saying, “Around here, we used to make things…change the world. We were pioneers, innovators.”

It’s a lengthy rant about how old people continuously talk about how awesome things were and how today’s youth wasn’t there for all the greatness. But our young Brit says, “Well I am here” and says to the elders who wish their old bands would get back together, “Good luck to you.”

And then he really lays it on thick saying, “We’re still pioneers. We don’t need factories or pills to change the world. We don’t need your misty eyes. We’re not retro anything. You won’t hear our story because we’re too busy writing it. Around here, we still make things. And out time is now.”

Cue the Reebok Classic logo. But not before the apparent crowning of the Millennial generation’s greatest creation is shared; a DJ in a nightclub.

No, seriously.
