“The acronyms. Don’t say ’lol.‘ It feels like you’re mocking me!”

As a Senior Staff Writer at BuzzFeed, I cover real-life stories that explore relationships, lifestyle (including travel and beauty), and the internet's most fascinating trends.

"Monotone colors. The black, whites, and greys have never been cool. They are boring."

"Don’t make it weird by acting all 👉🏼👈🏼 ~awkward~."

"But I remember when texting was all the rage back when I was in high school."

"Side parts. They just make your hair and overall head look unbalanced and uneven."

"There is nothing more sexy (or comfy) than a low-rise pair of pants that hangs right off the hip line. (Think Brittany Spears and Christina Aguilera in their iconic music videos) The more pockets and the baggier, the better, but a nice flattering pair of jeans with a flare or bell bottom is also appealing and feels great when you wear it. Those clothes make me feel so great about myself when I wear them, and I'm so glad we'll see more of them back on the clothing store racks and the younger generation. Good job, Gen Z, you've got great taste!"

5) Smoky eyes. Makeup trends come and go. No biggie.

Overall, millennials and Gen Z tend to get along very well. We're both pretty over the perpetual generational competition between our generation and baby boomers. We know that working together is the only way to make things better. The kids are alright!"
