        It's not a millennial thing - it's a culture-of-texting thing - lots of us old people are texting and don't miss the doorbell.

        You miss the point, which isn't use or non-use of the doorbell, but rather finding it "terrifying."

        I always forget about the snowflake police. God forbid somebody has a reaction to something. Kind of like the one you are having to them.

        What?! I missed the point again? I was only sticking up for the millenials. We're generally awful to upcoming generations. Take care.
