I'm a Millenial and didn't find the original comment all that indignant or upset. It was another side-comment that tossed in the "Millenials, eh? ;-)" and I just figured that was a humorous attempt to tie this to another discussion.

The side-comment didn't bother me. I'd guessed the target audience of the original comment before that was posted. I might be reading too much into it, but it came off as "you lazy kids and your damned expectations" kind of rant from someone who wanted to make sure no one was having too much fun, and that we all understood exactly where our place was in the world.
