What are some dumb millennial traits that gen z's avoid?

[ToroidalBoat]

Millenials are the new Boomers, Zoomers are the new Gen X.

What's Gen X usually then?

What's Gen X usually then?

Forgotten.

Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all night.

 

[soy woah jaque]

I've always disliked the whole "gen x gen y" talk, it feels like zodiac sign BS "Oh why are millenials like that oh why are virgos like that oh you're such a gemini oh you're such a zoomer" I feel like it suddenly became a trend to obsess over this generational crap

"The future we were promised" WTF are you talking about?!?!?!

Zoomers: The American Dream is Gay and Dead.
Patrotism is almost completely dead. Mass nihilism mixed with a renewed religious fervor on the fringes. Literally born on the Internet, and as a result the most brainrotted. Post-Post Irony, mass psychosis and mass hysteria surrounding innumerable societal wedge issues has created a generation of the most drugged out, checked out, nihilistic and depressed sad sacks ever.
Influenced heavily by Trump 2016, The Culture War that followed, The Coof 2020 and The Summer of Love 2020

A strange amount of Zoomers have renewed patriotism. They mostly smoke Marijuana and occasionally vape, though both of these activities seem to be on the decline. They are grasping for something to believe in but do not trust the MSM or Millenial mindset, so they grab onto traditional beliefs. Nationalism, religion, homesteading, cultural values, anything that might bring worth to life. This is why Zoomers are such a mixed bag. They are like children trying to fit blocks into a round hole but all they have are pointed shapes. Kicked dogs, the lot of them.

I'm a Gen-Xer and out of curiosity I checked out a few reaction videos by zoomers on comedies like Police Academy and Revenge of the Nerds which Millennials consider "Problematic" and overall, I tend to see that zoomers just find those movies funny. Zoomers don't seem to have the stick that was up millennials asses.

Zoomers give off the impression that they are hyper-aware that everything is fucked but can't really cope with it or understand why it is. They were born into broken families and crave a father, falling into the hands of e-daddy grifters. They idolize the past (particularly the 1980s for some reason) but have an even more distorted view of it than millennials do.

 

[Whatevermancer]

Being moderate. I don't know if it's a zoomer thing or young person thing, but they are more radical in their political views.

Virgin millennial: "Trans rights? I guess I support adults transitioning, but children transitioning is taking it way too far."
vs
Chad zoomer: "All trannies are groomers and they should join the 41%!" or "Trans right are human rights! If you don't support children transitioning, you're a far-right bigot!"

 

[Spunt]

Millennials remember a time before everything was fucked, and before the internet played a big part in the fuckery. Zoomers have known nothing else but all-pervasive social media and dystopia. That's why millennials care more - they remember that things didn't used to be this bad and think, perhaps naively, that we can go back. Zoomers have only known hellworld and as such are cynical and disengaged.

 

[Shek$il]

For as technologically addicted as they are, Zoomers are helpless when it comes to basic network troubleshooting. They were born at a time tech is a little too good and there's no need to learn your devices or how to fix them.

They were also born into Internet Pangea, where there's about six websites total. Not sure if that shapes their general lack of curiosity or poor critical thinking, but I can't help imagining they'd be better off with more niche, individualized spaces.

young and stupid, it was supposed to be easy!! I'll leave it at that, my inexperience is showing.

 

[Tanaka Naoki]

Zoomers are funny little characters who occasionally have the capacity to be funny or intelligent by accident. Millennials have this embarrassing desperation that makes it hard to stomach them.

Zoomers aren’t afraid to wear shorts that go above the knee. Say what you want about the tenets of aughts homophobia but millennial guys had to wear overly long shorts or risk being seen as a gay.

Unfortunately zoomers also aren’t afraid to wear:

Pajama pants out of the house

Socks with sandals or “slides” – and they have to be grubby white mid-calf socks like a tourist stereotype. Probably the most thought put into the outfit is making sure each sock isn’t pulled up tight but has a certain number of bunches. I assume the ideal number can be found on tiktok

Crocs – footwear the Idiocracy costume department put in the movie thinking they were too ugly to ever become popular, now with socks

As for hair, the broccoli top birdnest-on-forehead style is still going strong. That or bangs that jut forward at a 90 degree angle like a straw hat brim. But yeah the shorts

Millennials are better at computers and technology than zoomers are, for certain.

Zoomers aren't taking that back, like the rainbow itself, that got hijacked by the gays a long time ago and they play for keeps.

Big words when "zoomer humor" is random screaming or Skibidi Toilet

Astrology Sperg about generations-

I've always disliked the whole "gen x gen y" talk, it feels like zodiac sign BS "Oh why are millenials like that oh why are virgos like that oh you're such a gemini oh you're such zoomer

It's funny you mentioned this. Because it is exactly what astrology is. Astrology is a measure of energies/events through the positioning of planets. The planet that represents generations is Pluto. It takes about 14 years to shift into a new sign because it's so far away from the sun. Millennials have pluto in scorpio associated with having traits for investigation, justice, obsession, and fee fees. They think about their emotions all the time and how to make it right. I think this Pluto in Scorpio is why millennials are often obsessed with true crime. It also makes Millennials insufferable because they whine and mope about being wronged. (Their biggest flaw imo)

Zoomers are pluto in sagittarius ('95-08 ) associated with living with out fear or bounds. A thirst for knowledge and truth like the Millennials, but not a need to obsesses and feel some type of way about things. Everything is trying to forward enjoyment NOT justice. No attachment to anything. Historically Pluto in Sag is associated with globalization and foreign immersion.


--------
Anyway
Zoomers are much funnier than Millennials.
My biggest insidious fear for Zoomers is their love to gamble. I work with a lot of males in their 20s and THEY ALL GAMBLE. It's insane and I think this will have serious effects on our society in 5-10 years. Zoomers can't engage in outrageous vices like binge drinking because they are constantly recorded. So they engage in subtle vices online. Gambling's scary man, it's like being a smack head and having a button that you can press for instant dope. They barely win too.

I will defend slides and Crocs, at least not with socks.

These types of sandals sucked ass.

Also to add on, as a zoomer myself, it's very hard for me to empathize with boomers as a generation. They had everything handed to them, they could get homes and families and essentials with ease. While these Israel-Worshipping people retire to florida or thailand (eww) or the bahamas in droves, I'm expected to go above and beyond for a barely-paying job where I'm seen as just a statistic all while balancing debt from college and bills. I am then told that "I am not pulling up my bootstraps" and that for some reason my trips to starbucks or target are harming me.

Wear Birkenstocks like a proper man. I hit the best iron shot in my entire life shitfaced after a few Four Loko in 'stocks with a cigarette in my mouth.

Millenials: The American Dream is on fumes and is on the edge of dying.
Patriotism is in the minority. The last generation that remembers a time before the internet swept everything. Skeptical of entrenched power, but still somewhat reverant of it given that's what they grew up on. The financial collapse that occured right around when they would enter the work force rocked there sense of security, and the culture war shit that would follow further disillusions them. Influenced heavily by 9/11, 2008 Housing Crisis, Occupy Wallstreet

Who knows but hopefully better than the Zoomie Zooms

I greatly pity Gen-Z and hope they make it out okay. Millennials as much as we incessantly bitch and moan about getting a raw deal, we at least we had a small taste of the American Dream before it completely imploded. 9/11 alone was a massive seismic shift in culture, and the fact most Zoomie Zooms don't even remember a Pre-9/11 world is deeply depressing to me.

There is a definite difference between zoomers and millennials and how they view the past. One example of this is fast food restaurants...millennials remember a time when they weren't soulless grey boxes but at the same time most of them tended to be sort of generic as well...brown tile at McDonald's with seats bolted into the ground...there were unique ones but even then it was a lot more subdued. Zoomers don't actually remember the older stuff very well so they tend to think all the restaurants were like that. (I can tell you that I never saw a Taco Bell with the full cut-out shapes, though I remember the general theme).

They're so amusing, grew up in a world of smartphones. Can't live without one, shy anxiety riddled babies. Having mental issues is apparently a cool thing, despite the majority of them have self diagnosed themselves or had an influencer do it for them. Slightest bit of manual labour is enough to cry over. Prepare for the generation of Instagram models and Gaming Streamers. No other job will get done.

"My phone told me that zoomers can't live without their phone". Welcome to the present day, retard. Everyone is reliant on computers. Gone are the days where you could march up to Mr. Google with a smile on your face, slap a physical resumé on his desk and say "Mr. Google, I would like a job!"
