Not just war stories, but tales of hardship, endeavour, resistance and downright bravery….some generations are (un) luckier than others in that fate deals them a hand where they are forced to experience the harshest of situations, to wit; WW1, WW2, The Great Depression, rationing….even modern times can be categorised with noteworthy examples, the three day week, seventies blackouts, The Falklands War, The Gulf War, Northern Ireland, Iraq, Afghanistan, you get the picture.
Even I can claim involvement in some of these examples. The millennial generation, or a large portion of it, are really scraping the barrel though.
Scanning the internet in an attempt to wind myself up proved fruitful this morn.
Check out the story below.

This absolute fucker thought her tale a worthy example of her Spartanlike bravery.
Amber Prepchuk of Edmonton went away for a week at a lake house with her “girlfriends”, having prepared margaritas and squeezing limes, by hand, she woke two days later suffering burns on her hands from the lime juice.
“It was excruciating” she said.
“I’m a tough cookie, I can handle pain but I woke up crying my eyes out”
When you view the link, prepare yourselves, the pictures of her injuries are nothing short of horrific. Make sure there are no children present.
Amber, you are a fucking Trojan.
Your tale is up there with surviving the Second Battle of Ypres.
You cunt.
