Flaking is absolutely unacceptable, nothing pisses me off more than an ingenious person.

[@mylanyoung]

Huh. I thought this video was about snowflakes, those annoying people that get hurt at and protest everything. Didn't know flakes meant those annoying people that are always unreliable.

[@Kermanshow]

They're usually the same people

[@eggbert1978]

I didn't either.

[@highfunq2863]

Yeah I think they really meant 'snowflake' - but maybe the writer just caught the headlines or other people's click bait titles - and misinterpreted completely. Being 'flakey' has been around forever and not necessarily being brought back into usage recently to describe millennials. Description says "word of the street" so they probably didn't look into what the term actually meant and jumped on the bandwagon...

[@beautifulwhitecat]

Mylan Young me too but then I watched it some and was like what??? Wish they were talking about snowflakes lol!

[@mylanyoung]

belinskii Huh, that's an interesting viewpoint. From what I know, snowflakes mean that you melt easily, not that you're super special. I mean, we're all special - but kids nowadays have lived such a cushy life that they don't know "real" struggles and thus, they just melt every time something doesn't go their way.

[@that1guy335]

This is the first Great Wall vid that I realized Dan and Yi are together

[@that1guy335]

crazy808ish 6 months would be my guess

[@Kaizen2011]

Felicia is really cute, I love her accent and personality

[@xueyingli6034]

Mia:"why are you guys bothering me on my day off" LMAOO that is me

[@adhd5865]

Please bring Carmen back A$AP, she was dope

[@insanesupaiyicricegalworld2447]

Yeah remember chopsticks vs. forks

[@adhd5865]

Yup, she whooped Dan with the bamboo.

[@BigB0ss00]

The current girls are hotter and better

[@redrose999INVU]

I just so love ur channel,totally addicted to it,thnk u so much 4 being here :D

[@peanutbutterfiend]

loved this quiz and loved the gifts!!

[@BurgerwithPeanutButter]

I'm definitely with Felicia. I'm one of those people that don't like to make plans too far in advance, because my mood may change by the time that plan comes around. I also have some slight disabilities, which can severely impact how I feel on any given day, so I prefer to decide what to do each day as it comes. I'm not necessarily flaky, though, because when I say I am going to do something, I actually do it...I just don't decide until the day of, or day before. Haha. I'm sure people get frustrated with me. Oh well...

[@anthonymartinez7844]

ALL three are fantastic style fashion culture . Every time is different from the last one . Brilliant idea . Thanks for sharing your fabulous adventures with me . ...

[@Victoria-zf9rc]

I agree with Felicia. I'm not really I introverted, because I'm okay being around people. I just have to prepare myself.

[@ellogs]

tbh if I ever get somewhere on time, you should be worried😅

[@louiseglasgow]

And I agree, technology and how it has shaped our brains and social behaviour is a huge factor in why millenials and non-millenials behave so differently!

[@animeguy7192]

I rarely to never flake on such things as catching up with friends. I always stay committed to going no matter what. I always get annoyed with "friends" flake out on a planned event and I'm left on my own for no good reason. 😧😒

[@louiseglasgow]

And in a work context it's so hard for us non-millenials because millenial colleagues will do that thing where they say yes to stuff when they already have a different work commitment, they can't actually be in two places at once and then someone has to cover for them, or the work thing has to be cancelled! In a work context that can just look really bad, and it's so hard for us to understand - "but you knew you have this regular thing every week on the same day and at the same time, so why did you say yes to doing something else when you already knew you were busy?", but they are just not used to saying no!!!!

[@a.j.3088]

OMG, that's so me. I really need to mentally prepare. Get really bad case of anxiety. I'm an introvert so I mostly don't care to hang out, ever! Unless, it's with my one childhood friend who knows me very well and tolerates my boring choice of outings in quiet (Not crowded) places 😆 Dan's reactions are too funny

[@immossi]

I got the same as you Felicia!! My friends always tell me I have an excuse, it's a bit embarrassing actually

[@xrubyxlightx]

Unicorn friend. Okay, I'm only a graduate student sooooo.... 1. Do you almost always say yes to an outing/event? Yes, since it's normally on a weekend. I'm usually just at school and I don't come off as super friendly and exciting so I'm always flattered and say yes when someone asks me to go hang out with them. 2. Do you normally attend over 80% of outings? Yes. I want to go out and have fun before a new school week begins 3. Are you normally punctual or late? PUNCTUAL. I go to school in Staten Island and live on campus so unfortunately going to the city/Brooklyn takes a while, thus i leave my place super early so I can make it to my destination on time. Back home in California, I'm also punctual because I avoid traffic and therefore arrive hella early

[@Johanneslol11]

I don't hang out a lot with people in general, but if i say i will be there I will alwasy be ther on time. I never missed, canceled,delayed or being late at any meeting ! I am the type of person who only cares for those who are willing to make and keep promises if they are not willing to do that then they are not worth spending time with!!!

[@MrSuliat]

on new years eve i ended up not going out wih friends because there was no public transport, uber was like 3x more than usually and it was also really cold. when factors starts to pile up i just cancel. i got the white rabbit

[@yanamorim5747]

she really commited to the quiz

[@dewiretika]

Agreed!

[@TokyoDogz]

ah. how i miss those days when there was a spot you met up with each other. like it didn't matter what time. someone would be there. which was great. now when i try to meet up with people. i find myself not feeling it anymore and end up stayin home. like meet me right away. don't give me the time to rethink my decisions in life. technology ruined it... ish. is what i believe. or age.. getting older. combination of both..

[@willkang6480]

im 20. never been out with my friends because parents wont let me go out. only way to leave the house is lie about having to go to uni to hand in assignments. so i have no choice but to reject every invite i get

[@louiseglasgow]

I'd rather have a maybe than a flaky yes! At least I know you mean maybe, whereas saying yes, and then flaking most of the time, I find it hard not to take personally. Whereas maybe is just I don't know yet.

[@ultramarinewaters9325]

Btw so cool to find out about Dan and Yi

[@BassaSelim]

I'm a 70s/80s kid but I follow Felicia's path. Excuse King. And it was my fault the last evening with friends didn't happen. And it was supposed to be at my place. I felt really bad about it but I think tonsilitis, fever and muscle pain from coughing are valid reasons for cancelling. Still felt bad. :(

[@dariantomey6494]

i was going to meet my friends at a restaurant and i showed up an hour before it even opened i hate being late

[@kaylakthulhu8623]

because I'm 20, I'm of the generation after millenials, so the home phone was really only used in elementary school and into middle school, and I was a little young to go out and make plans to meet a friend somewhere. I was also from a small town with one elementary school xD so even if I wanted to hangout with someone, you could usually just walk to their house rather than calling xD I remember the days after school though, when the only way to contact my mom at work to ask if I could go over to a friend's house was to borrow the phone at the school office xD

[@XxScArEcRoWxX1]

demissione I'm 25 I miss my home phones.. it was simple back then..

[@cameilkadir30]

aww Dan and Yi is such a cute couple !!

[@ccandy1846]

Am I the only one that is always on time? I have a pet peeve bout that. When my friend and I make a time to meet up. I am always half an hour early.

[@TheBananaBoba]

Nope that's not true every generation has had its "flakes"

[@EndohMiharu]

stiepan holkien, I think so because the obsession with technology has made many of us more lazy to actually go out in this day and age. "friends" are only a click away.

[@natashadarling8872]

I am the Moody flaker 😂😂😂

[@casualcal6799]

i always assume maybe is a no and if they say yes then its a bonus but i wont wait around for their answer.

[@louiseglasgow]

I'm 40 but I have a lot of people in my life who are millenials and this really really bothers me. Even now that I've figured out it's a millenial thing (it was so much worse before I knew!), I find it really hard not to take it personally after a while. I think so hard about whether to say yes to something (which my millenial friends probably take personally) and I'll do Dan's maybe thing, until I can figure out how tired I'll be, what work things I'll have on etc. Because to me, cancelling (other than because of an emergency) shows you aren't concerned about the other person's time and are willing to walk all over them. So after I put all that effort in to figure out if I can make it, they end up cancelling half the time anyway! It's a bad combination. They think I don't care enough because I don't say yes easily and quickly and I think they don't care about me because they don't put thought into planning and will push me aside for anything better that comes along. They feel like I'm inflexible and I feel like they are flaky. I've also noticed that although millenials will get frustrated at other flaky millenials, or other millenials who are flaky in a different way but in the kind of way I get frustrated at some who is regularly 15minutes late (annoying but not a massive big deal), whereas I feel personally offended by a constantly flaky millenial.

[@louiseglasgow]

Plus, the other thing that bugs me is the "oh lets do x sometime" and then you ask them about doing x and they're like "oh I don't want to", and I'm (internally) like "you were the one who suggested it in the first place.....what!?!?" I wouldn't even have suggested it in the first place, then I looked forward to it, and now you don't even want to do it.....again! OK so I've practically written an essay about this, but I genuinely feel like it is a barrier in relationships sometimes, not just for me but for other older people around millenials. Like eventually I just think "what's the point?" and I think they probably think - wow this is too much like hard work, what does she want from me? I try to think of it as a cross-cultural thing, because in a way that's pretty much what it is. But you know how it is, even when you know the logic of another culture, and you know it's not wrong, just different, when you're emotions are involved it's really hard to get past that! I don't see the point in making all these plans just to break them, when you could save all that energy by just not making them in the first place! (And don't even get me started on when I've had younger flatmates (translation: roommates) and thought it would be like when I was younger and we knew vaguely where each other was, and they think I'm being weirdly inappropriate. Hey, I don't care what you do, or where you are, I just want to know at what point I would call the police and where I would tell them you were supposed to be! To my non-millenial mind that makes all the sense and has zero to do with wanting to keep tabs on you. Honestly, nothing to do with that, it's just that police thing! Oh and also, because if we're sharing space I want to have it to myself sometimes, and to know that I will, rather than think you're going to come back any minute (but actually you already know you'll be away for two days but I don't need to know that!?!?). I've learned to accept that when it's a millenial it's seen as a gross intrusion of privacy to share that information (I'm talking when you'll be away overnight, or roughly what you're work and gym hours are, not keeping tabs on your every move!), so I don't ask anymore, but I find that stressful as a long-term way to share space, so I'm hoping to live alone for as long as I can possibly afford that, even if it means having very little money for anything else. That is how stressful I find that.

[@sueduong7503]

Flakiness is ageless. It just depends on the person and their personality. Being late is one of my biggest pet peeves.

[@XxScArEcRoWxX1]

Sue Duong the word petpeeve is also a big pet peeve 😊

[@sueduong7503]

Touche ;)

[@dylanpearn2463]

Yes

[@MuusiicRafael]

You guys are so cute! 😁😊

[@louiseglasgow]

I read people below (not going to call anyone out), saying, "last time I flaked was because of x, y and z factors" but each of the ones I've read, my non-millenial brain says, "those are all legitimate reasons not to attend that social event, but they are all/mostly predictable, they were already true when you were invited, so why did you say yes at the time and then flake later, rather than just saying no to start with? To me that saves everyone's time. But I guess trying to look at it objectively, you guys are just more "in the moment" and you wait to see what the circumstances are when the time comes, whether they were predictable or not. More of us non-millenials deal with the predictable ones up front and then the non-predictable ones when the time comes. But they are just different types of logic, much as it pains me to say that! But the combination of these and other factors mean we hold a social commitment more highly overall too, so "it's cold out" doesn't trump the commitment for example. The commitment/obligation has a higher social pressure than our comfort. This doesn't mean we never flake, we just save it up as our occasional guilty secret. I think we are also much more scared (on average) of being seen as flaky.

[@adurnaebrithil]

so i guess im am a millineal..i was born in 92 so i believe i fit the construed defination. anyway. they touched on something good here. people feel obligated to say yes. thats the problem right there. i always tell my friends if they do not feel like doing this or that they need to say so. i rather you tell me no, and i believe feelings may be hurt more whenever you always answer yes but always end up not going. personally i just stop inviting said people. learn to say no. or that you rather not. to me it is just better that way.

[@lelechim]

So according to this chart, I'm either a busy bee or a jerk, depending on whether my commitments are my reason for not making plans.

[@anissavargas6370]

I am a millennial. But I hate flakes and late people. I am always punctual and only promise what I can do. If I do not do something, there is probably an emergency or I am sick.

[@missinglink398]

I think i'm a "excuse king" similar to felicia.

[@dylanakent]

I couldn't be friends with any of you. Flake on me once without a good reason and we're done. I need people who are as serious about their friends as they are about their jobs, school or anything else. Friends are important. And if you don't want to go somewhere or you're tired, it's respectful to just be as honest as you can as soon as possible. Respect other people's time.

[@Melody65100]

IM SUCH AN EXCUSE QUEEN

[@augustoencarnacion7058]

did it and I got "get a job" feels bad

[@JariSatta]

When you say you are going to do Y and then you don't do it, your self-esteem goes down. _YOU can't even trust yourself_ If I say I'm going to do Y, I better do it.

[@NaJ97]

I recently flaked because it was heavily snowing and I live quite far away from the celebrant so....

[@hustlerKid]

Last time I flaked was when a friend invited me to his daughter first birthday and he said it was tradition to give money , so I didn't go cause he asked for money bacsically

[@XxScArEcRoWxX1]

Hustlerkidfromrecess I would laugh if he meant they would be giving out money to guests and you missed out😊

[@hustlerKid]

XxScArEcRoWxX1 naw lol he said it was tradition to give his daughter money as presents instead of toys lol

[@2uneek]

i am an excuse king. i love to hang out with my friends. but id prefer to be at home. i dont mind if they come over, or i go over to their place.

[@stvsueoka1]

This was fun hahaa

[@nostalgia545]

All my friends are unreliable. I tried planning a trip with all of them and they all get excited then they make up excuses when it comes to planning it.

[@AgesOfAgony]

I'm an excuse king myself, but thankfully with getting older I'm growing out of it

[@ultramarinewaters9325]

Poor Mia is like Wth??

[@asianteasets]

A person who is flakey shows that the person lacks responsibility and consideration for their friends.

[@lulumeng6004]

I'm a unicorn friend 🦄😂😂😂

OK I'm 13 and I am my only person in like my whole year who is serious about keeping arrangements

[@nyadakajawin3425]

😒😒😒 this is my best friend the snow queen

[@candacelin4115]

Who is calling us 'flakes' lol? The bossy grumpy forever complaining GEN X, or the grumpier still but even foggier and crazier 'baby boomer'? ugh some people are just never happy, I say deal with it. x

[@XxScArEcRoWxX1]

Candace Lin a bit of both probably

[@watchman1178]

Generation Z is going to save us all. They are the most conservative generation since the WWII group. Grow up fast, Gen Z. These millennials are messed up.

[@beautifulwhitecat]

Hope this isn't taken the wrong way but is anyone else thrown off by her Aussie accent? By the way, I've never been to Australia. That may be why I feel that way.

[@havu2236]

The maybe person is the worst.

[@DenorrisBanks]

but doesn't it group two generations together? I can never relate to these type of videos

the other day my sisters had to drag me out of the house to a party and then i ended up really enjoying the time.

[@Xcorgi]

The first part of the video where the girls droned on for about 10 minutes put me to sleep. Zzzzzz!

[@Emptybasilisk]

Among all the generation, the Millenials are the one with the most negative view, I even read a magazine (on Management) where they create a "recipe" on "how to deal with the y gen...". (ù_ù)

[@jeremylang3056]

Hey, why are girls from Asia such horrible kissers? Do couples in China or Korea not kiss? Latin families are very affectionate with their families and girls with their bf. But, why are also Asian girls from the US some of the best kissers? Just from my experience, I know every girl is an individual and generalizations won't be true 100%. Thanks for the videos guys!
