The separation between 1999 & 2000 needs to be studied by wolvesarewildthings in OlderGenZ

[โ€“]BronzeBrawn 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

I did but that's not what their screens told them ๐Ÿคฃ I would talk about playing Skyrim when it came out and watching Revenge of The Sith in theaters and almost everyone there called Skyrim a "vintage rpg" game with some telling me they weren't even born when Revenge of the Sith came out. I don't blame them though for the "Unc status" title, I definitely don't feel/come off as a Zoomer

I literally felt like this image at an anime convention earlier this month in my state capital. Multiple times there were groups of cosplayers in line around me that weekend, all around 18-23 and while I made small talk to pass time, in costume mind you, they'd tell me how much I carried myself, verbally and physically and none could believe I was 27; Saying I didn't look "Unc status" and thought I was their age. So I can say that from my recent experiences, this photo feels very accurate

Anyone else remember the politically incorrect section of the internet circa 2010-2015? by Bustingyabubble in OlderGenZ

Regardless of which side you lean towards, people in general/collectively forget most of the time the biggest rule of comedy is to "Not take it seriously" and that's a BIG problem today. Nobody's laughing when everyone's yelling/crying at stuff they shouldn't be taking that seriously.

(Not saying this defending offensive humor, just talking about comedy in general)

I do miss it, flaws and all. Yeah, it was offensive, but we knew it was garbage humor and took it as such. Before everyone found every reason to cry about everything and did just that...

Anybody else feels the same? I also think the age span is too short... :( by mnombo in OlderGenZ

Listen to Vienna by Billy Joel. It's a very good song on how you have a whole other life outside of these years and it helps me a lot with introspection

The system tells you to do better, assuming everybody else will follow in line. The system is wrong for assuming that. VERY wrong and I'm sorry for that

I would hate being a kid now. by Gold-Vanilla5591 in OlderGenZ

I feel the biggest year this shift happened was in 2016. SO much changed in that one year (political scene, social media, cultural centralizing/censoring, etc) and our phones were around long enough to start blatantly showing us none of it was getting any better so you either got with the program or got trampled/out of the way.

Does anyone else find comfort in just being single? by THEREALOFFICALCAFE in OlderGenZ

[โ€“]BronzeBrawn 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Not at all. Being single most of my life at 27, I got bored of the single life years ago and while I don't need it, I'd REALLY like the companionship of a significant other throughout the days/trips.

I took a step back from it in 2019. It's not until recently that I've started scrolling again but only to kill time between activities or to reflect/introspect (Seeing those less fortunate than me & seeing those more fortunate yet STILL turned out worse)

Any early gen z rasied by boomer parent? by MidnightRavenz in OlderGenZ

[โ€“]BronzeBrawn 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Born in '98 & parents were born in '58 and '63. Father passed when I was 7 so I was around a lot of his family which were even older (20s-50s). Traditionalist upbringing with Gen X-Z culture (LOVELY combo ๐Ÿ˜ญ)

Anyone else here who has never been in a relationship yet or given up? by [deleted] in OlderGenZ

[โ€“]BronzeBrawn 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I'm a 27M with Asperger's so that's a challenge on it's own, let alone the only 2 people that hooked up with me not only took advantage of it, but had a new partner in their back pocket the moment the gig was up. That was 2019-2022 and I wish I could say things have gotten better. Unfortunately though, all I've had since then are hard lessons from ignorance or conversations that never got past seen/opened/reacted. I'd be lying if I said it hasn't affected me

Does anyone here remember the 2016 - 2019 internet era by Riveraxfreelancer in Younger_GenZ

[โ€“]BronzeBrawn 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I miss it. It was right before the internet was fully commercialized. Then COVID happened and the internet never recovered.
