I kinda like the snowflake role. Never had it before. I definitely endorse it because I’ve been clubbed by the Miami Police, shot at at least four times, held captive on two occasions, been investigated for second degree murder, been in a couple of bar fights, had 13 broken bones, been pushed over by Spiro Agnew’s SS detail and dodged gangs in South Central besides numerous close shaves all over the world. Then there was the investigation for bribing border guards in Namibia and Botswana.

I’ll take snowflake any time. I deserve it.

I like it when snowflake millenials use "snowflake" as a term of opprobrium for Boomers.  I think the big difference is that there's no way on god's green earth I would use the term "snowflake" for a member of the Silent or Greatest generations.  But (some) millenials apparently feel no such restraint.

Reminds me of the time one of the A's players referred to Sandy Alderson as a coward, because he didn't stand in against 90 mph fastballs.  One of the reporters asked him if he was sure that Alderson was a coward, given that he faced 700 mph bullets shot at him when he was in the Marines serving a tour in Vietnam.  Oh, uh...that's not what I meant, said the player.
