Millenial

Some websites say I'm a Gen Z while others say I'm a millennial. So a bit of both

I was born in 1995, people are split on whether that's millennial or gen Z. I guess I'll round up and go gen Z. I have siblings born in the early '80s though so I watched a lot of older TV/movies and used a few late '80s to early '90s toys, games, and electronics.

A big tech transition generation.

X.

I'd be cautious that behavior, common experienced events, technology shifts, etc define categories and not the other way around. If the boundaries for generations are arbitrary then inclusion is just as arbitrary and not defined by behavior since behaviors can spread across multiple labels. We all want to belong, but tribalism can be a useful tool to divide humanity against itself. Historic generation labels where distinct boundaries can be observed and defined in an historic context makes sense to me, contemporary generational labels seem like divisive nonsense to me.

This separation into "generations" is such bullshit. It's just another way to divide the haves from the have-nots. If you blindly believe that generations define you, you're the problem. You're making it easy to be controlled and find another person to concentrate on while your rights, your liberties, your opportunities, and your privacy get slowly taken away from you.

The older, but not the oldest one... Gen-X.

Early millennial. Depped into the Navy about 5 months after 9/11.

End of Millennial or first of Gen-Z, although I feel a lot more like Gen-Z.

Z gang

Millennial. I do unabashedly love avocado toast and lattes and also can't afford a house, so I'm hitting the stereotypes

Gen Z reporting for duty

I'm on the older end of millenial.

Early Gen X. Just gotta say, the term.baby boomer was tossed around when I was younger but I never heard the term generation X until the 90's, maybe late 90's.

Gen Z.

This place is a lot older than I expected.

Internet generation, progenitors of current online brainrot. Came too early to experience the 90s in all its glory, and too late for running console-quality games on a 6mm thick mobile device.

At least we have the 2010s to claim for ourselves. Those were pretty cool.

I was born in 2001, what does that make me?

Solidly millennial.

Supposedly Gen Z due to being from 99.
Don't feel like them though. More like a very young millenial.

I'm right in the Millennial/Gen Z transition, mid 90's. I struggle to associate strongly with either group as I missed most of the important Millennial stuff but I was too early for a lot of zoomer stuff.

Right on the zoomer and millennial line

Gen Z, reading the thread I now understand why this platform has an allergy to edgey memes, sarcasm and shitposting not denoted with a /s.

Late 70’s.

Zillenial or younger millenial

Generation Tamagotchi
