The 1900s!? π That is simultaneously the funniest and most painful thing I have read today.
I often refer to things my friend did as a kid/young adult having occurred last century.
Do one better, say it was last millennium.
I wouldn't worry too much about it.
As an older millennial, I felt the same way when media outlets were lumping my 30-odd year old ass in with 16 year olds not even out of high school and calling us a cohort.
You have more in common with people nearing 50 than you might want to believe. The main difference is that they've experienced things that you haven't yet. But you will, sooner than you probably think.
One thing my dad always said about adulthood was "the days are long but the years are short." And boy was he right. Now he's an old man, I'm staring directly ahead at my 40's, and the list of dead people I used to know continues to increase in number and velocity.
Sometimes it feels like I was 22 a few years ago but then I blinked and now I'm here.
I'm not even 30 yet and I not only remember floppy disk's, I used them in school.
You grew up in a poor school district, didn't you?
I graduated high school the year you were born. I agree with everything you said. I feel like this was written by an older millennial still self-deluding themselves about being in the olds now.
That's just technology. Maybe think about boomers and then consider again whether you have 'nothing in common' with people < 47
You still know the movies. That's the point. No need to dick around, baby πΊ
And therefore you've got way more in common with those 46 - 50 year old then you realize bud. You're a Gen Z just like the rest of us "oldies". Don't worry, you'll understand it when you get older :).
The tweet is just asking: How are you and your parents? Nothing to be upset about.
You made a account and chose violence lol
I heard my hip make a pop noise earlier. It doesn't hurt yet but I'm sure it'll be the most painful thing I've heard today. And I just know it'll be my back that paid the price.
would you prefer "late 20th century"?
Personally, yes
You just reminded me of this.

bro got pressed over a twitter reply π no one lumpin you in with the adults bro ur good
The age brackets get more inclusive quickly
Lol unc
WDYM "close to 50 years old"? The 90's were only ten years ago!
I'll lump you better.
You are a part of group born between 300,000 BCE and 2026 CE.
Youβre almost old enough to get your own βthat time I pooped my pantsβ story
Maybe itβs the flu, or you trust a fart after extra spicy Thai. But either way, you never forget or trust your sphincter the same.
22? You old as shit.
Well, just like millennials, you'll never be able to retire. So good for you for still being young I guess?
Is called being a slave we are the modern slave
Now listen here you little shit
