I’m a millennial: here are 11 reasons why I wish I was Gen Z
Boomers, millennials, Generation Z: the only thing we have in common is that we all hate each other, right? (And that we’ve all collectively forgotten Generation X exists. Sorry guys.)
That’s the narrative that gets propagated – that an endless generational battle lies at the heart of the culture wars, stoked every month or so by another grenade lobbed over the parapet. The latest skirmish is firmly between millennials and Gen Z. You’ll be walking along thinking everything’s fine, only to be hit by a bit of shrapnel: Pow! A 23-year-old bystander points and laughs at your ankle decorated with sausage dogs. Boom! A younger colleague rolls their eyes with disdain upon hearing you make another reference. Zap! You get eviscerated by TikTokers for trying to get in on the “” trend when it’s clear you have only the sketchiest grasp of the concept (something to do with taking drugs and not brushing your hair and ?).
