'Millennials Of New York' Should Be Your New Favorite Facebook Page (Photos)
by Connor Toole and Alec MacDonald
Back in May, we introduced to you Millennials of New York, which was our own satirical spin on the universally beloved Humans of New York, the Facebook page capable of bringing more inspiration to the world in 17 seconds than you will in your entire life.
After people responded to the post with a unanimous "This isn't the worst thing I've ever seen!" we decided to keep the project going by starting an actual Millennials of New York Facebook page.
We'll continue to update the page every day until someone in Silicon Valley inevitably offers to buy it from us for a billion dollars -- kind of Facebook did to Instagram (where you can also follow and validate us).
