    OT, but...

    It's a lovely moment and I'm glad that little girl got to see F+tM.

    My sense is they will be much more responsive to the gig economy than older workers will be/are. People my age get a little freaked out about not being a 40-hour-a-week W-2 employee.

    This will also depend a lot on the future of Obamacare and whether they can stay on their parents' insurance until age 26.

    I watch Poker Night in America on TV. It does drive me nuts that these 30 year old people CANNOT put their phones away at the table. They can't keep away from fucking twitter for 2 minutes.

    Does Yankee Fan play poker?

    My wife is bad about taking photos of the kids with her phone all the time instead of being in the moment. Drives me crazy, but that ship has sailed. The only thing I don't let her do is post photos of me or tag me in any photos. Fuck that.

    You're allowed to use your phone at a poker table?
