Tide Pod Generation Band Names

(First World) Problem Child: this is a cutting-edge punk band. The frontman will be repeatedly arrested for highly-publicized incidents of things like sneaking his companion animal Pomeranian* onto airplanes without a prescription from his psychiatrist or for throwing stools through plate-glass windows at Starbucks when his Caramel Macchiato has white sugar instead of raw sugar. These antics will earn him huge street cred among his fans and other bands such as:

The Vocal Minority

The Trust Fund Babies

The Who (is best Connected)?

The Limousine Liberals

The Yuppie-Hippies

The Gentrifiers

The Blind Lemmings

The Final Generation of Freedom

*Pomeranians rock, no disrespect to the breed.

Gen X here too...I feel the same way. The only thing I noticed about Millennials was that they often refused to be mistreated in the labor force the same way we did (that and their college loans were something like 5x higher then ours were).

It's gone past the whole "good natured ribbing" thing and into actual abuse based on birth year. We wouldn't let TB host an [insert ethnic group] Band Name thread. Why this?
Gave me a new band name.

Ignoring Reality. Not you but them. But this is all fiction and in the humor section. I don't hate them, I feel sorry for what is likely coming to them if they ignore/deny millions of years of evolution in favor of 100 or so years of social engineering pioneered by people who live in a world that is too easy (but not real). Oh, my bad, AI will fix any shortcomings in their plan. Carry on. Remember, this is a humor thread.

PS: You asked. Maybe our words can help wake people up.... wouldn't be the first time comedian-types created massive social change using far more ridiculous stuff than what you see here and, aside from answering allegations of meanness, we are making no judgment but simply making band names and no "hate crime" words have been used (in answer to the person who suggested this thread is as bad as one about an ethnicity). History's greatest and well-regarded authors (Vonnegut, Orwell, Hawking, etc) have warned of what seems to be heading our way and NOBODY ever said they were offensive to suggest that we're getting too soft.... and controlled.
