As a fellow Gen Zer I feel like there is a generational gap. I want to see if I’m trippin or there actually is one.
Gen X
landslide
Somewhat elder millennial.
This generation.
points vaguely at everything
I’m not dead yet, AFAIK.
Born during the very last month of the previous millennium, but I don’t know what generation that is.
zillenial
Nope, full Gen Z.
If you weren’t old enough to understand what was happening when watching the twin towers fall and grasp the gravity of it while it was happening, you’re a Zoomer. (And that’s a good thing)
Some of them are alphas (?!)
I don’t think any alphas had actually been born yet to witness it let alone comprehend it.
They can even talk back!
Young millennial here. My first memory relating to 9/11 is vaguely being told it was the anniversary of some event that happened the previous year in 2002.
It really wasn’t (at least not directly—the aftermath of it certainly was) the big generarion-defining thing Americans like to think it was. The impact on global diplomacy (not least of which is the Iraq and Afghanistan wars), the increased security theatre when travelling on planes. That’s certainly a defining generational experience. But the event itself is much less so.
Generation X here.
Why is your profile pic an outline of me
Haha, I’ve been using old.lemmy.world for so long I’d forgotten I even had the Space Needle profile on my account. Was truly puzzled for a minute.
“How do they know I’m in Seattle? Oh, yeah.”
No, it’s because you’re wearing socks with your sandals
As someone who lives in the PNW that PNW clued me in.
One of us!
Millennial
Xenial, I think it’s called. I was the youngest, and I was born in 1983. My siblings are Def GenX, and I never quite identified with that group.
I never quite identified as a millennial either, I’m somewhere in between.
This is how I feel too. 1984 for me.
i dont know how its called but my shot would be xillenial
Also dubbed “Generation Catalano:” https://slate.com/human-interest/2011/10/generation-catalano-the-generation-stuck-between-gen-x-and-the-millennials.html
I prefer Oregon Trail generation.
gen Z but i feel a lot more like a millenial
The coolest one . . . . Gen X.
End of Millennial or first of Gen-Z, although I feel a lot more like Gen-Z.
Gen-Z here, born in the 00s.
Hey there 00’s brother!
How do you do fellow zoomers?
Want the suffering to end
Another fellow 00’s sister reporting here !
Young millennial. And yeah, I think it’s not the most stark and clear cut, but older millennials had hope once it was just dashed upon adulthood, gen z grew up with everyone getting that they were hopeless. Us young millennials though, it was awkward as a 13 year old trying to explain to my parents that I was doomed.
But I definitely have more in common with someone a few years younger than me than several years older
Gen X
Early 90s millenial here. I remember the wild west internet days. Left Reddit because it does not serve the interests of its users anymore.
