    Are Millennials hating on Gen Z? I always thought our attitude was more like this:

    Also, love how this skips Gen X. Always the forgotten generation.

      Born in 84, so technically a millennial although I feel more like a Gen X. As I like to say when X is overlooked - our apathy made us invisible. :-)

        I guess you can be an honorary Xer, but I was 14 when you were born, so it’s just a fact that a lot of what I and my fellow Xers have in common time-wise is going to be significantly different. Consider; you were 7-years-old when I was 21.

      The other day my dad tried to tell me he was a millennial, because he was too young to be a boomer.

      Even Gen X forgets about Gen X

      That’s how I like to see us too, but I’ve definitely met some Z hating millennials.

      I met a fellow “old millennial” recently who said “we’re the last generation to be raised right”. I disagree, but hearing it from a guy my age really cemented me in old man status.

      Then he told me he had 3 kids. Who’s responsible for raising that generation!? Lol.
