Love, Master of None, You’re the Worst and Man Seeking Woman are among the shows that keep suggesting that young people simply can’t get it together.

They're portrayed no more dysfuntional than GenXers or the baby boomer were portrayed.

Honestly, most (not all) young people can't "get it together".....without the help of their smartphone. It's really sad when you think about it.

I'm glad to be apart of the last of the low tech generation.

I'm at the 1st string of Generation Y (1980-1985). I've lived without a phone and in a way...I needed it!

And I still can't get things together...my job seems to keep dragging me down!
