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.

I'm from generation "Get those damn kids off my lawn!"

I'm born in 98' so I'm right down the middle but generally classed as the last of the millennials.

I feel a lot closer to zoomers, but where I'm from, I think the people who have fast-tracked adulthood with kids and mortgages are textbook millennials where as layabouts like myself share a lot more spaces with young adult zoomers.

I'm already needing to remind myself that some of the deepest internet brainrot like skibidi toilet is not a new phrase but a meme of the hour started by generation alpha and then carried by confused millennials.

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

cant afford a thing and love some good toast with a latte too

apparently my high school epitomed the Xer slacker stereotype for the middle of it.. They have these signs along the fence listing accolades and awards for different teams and clubs. There is this gap that goes between the late seventies and the early nineties. Outside of that there is something for like every year. Then I know for my year there was a half hearted attempt at a 25yr reunion I think from pressure from administration to some of the folks who had been student council or such. Anyway it imploded likely cause folks like me said they would not go.

Lost.

Any "gap" between generations falls into the Lost category.

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

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