Millennials just can’t win. The older generations think we’re ruining everything and the younger generations think we’re essentially fossils. And you might be surprised to find out exactly what Gen Z says makes us so ancient.
- Tapes.Take it from Twitter user@DaShaunLH. It matters a lot to the kids nowadays the way you listened to your music and watched your movies growing up. She tweeted: “My little cousin called me old because I used to have VHS tapes and cassette tapes.”So much for the resale value of that N’SYNC tape you’ve got in storage.
- Voicemails.According to some members of Gen Z, you might as well be using smoke signals if you’re leaving someone a message using your voice.@Jessiimaynntweeted: “yesterday at work a girl told me I was old because I emailed people. Today my son called me old because I left a voicemail.”Wait until they find out about “mail.”
- Artists that are lost on Gen Z.If you bring up anyone you had on your iPod back in the day, be prepared for Gen Z to make you feel like a grandparent.@PureSol69got called old for knowingLil Bow WowandLil Romeo,@jhtxt00got old-shamed for listening to theJonas Brothers, and@abigailelmangot roasted by some kids for knowing even oneQueensong.Harsh!
Check out the full list of things millennials did, or do, that makes them as old as dirt in the eyes of Gen ZHERE. Spoiler: If you had a MySpace or remember using YouTube pre-ad, you’re not going to like the rest of the examples.
