I think you’ve got Gen Z and Millennials backwards.
It’s millennials trying to fit in with Gen Z to prove to themselves they’re not old.
And the Gen Z is… reading a newspaper? Nah fam, I don’t think that’s what’s going on.
You think millennials read newspapers? We are the first digital native generation. In fact, we saw the internet growing up while we grew up ourselves
I know i’m old, i just found a new hobby: messing woth the younger generation by messing with their slang.
You know, like how grandpa called every pokeman pikachu…but on purpose.
I mess with my zoomer children all the time: bruh, no cap, on god, sus/sussy, my guy.
They mostly roll their eyes, but I do enjoy it.
Yeah no millennial is doing that to fit in/not feel old (okay there are probably some but they’re a minority for sure), at best they’re doing that to be annoying/make fun of the crazy slang.
We used to make fun of comic books for making up slang that hilariously no one would ever use, then gen z came along.
Right? We used to be like “this is written like how some 60 year old executive thinks kids these days talk … nobody talks like this we just talk normally…”
