“WE SAY THE EXACT SAME STUFF ABOUT GEN Z AND ALPHA AS BOOMERS SAID ABOUT US!”

"We cannot fall into the trap of being pitted against other generations. We can all work together and solve the real problems. There's no point in yelling at boomers or Gen Z."

"There is a fine line between being childlike (good) and childish (not good), and we cross it way too often."

"Delayed maturity. Hearing someone in their 30s say 'adulting' is mildly aggravating. Doing basic life stuff isn’t exactly impressive. And being reliant on your parents while having Instagram/YOLO expectations of life is pretty petulant. I think Gen Z will be this way too, but it started with us, not Gen X."

"We are bad parents who are guided by our children instead of guiding them."

"It sucks that we came of age during the downfall of guitar-based pop music. I have very distant memories of Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Weezer, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, etc. Rap and electronic music were very much there in the '90s, too, but the relegation of rock bands to an increasingly fragmented audience happened in the mid-'00s, and we never looked back."

"The constant complaining about our current timeline when WW2 and Vietnam happened last century gets annoying. Also, we act like other generations didn’t also go through the pandemic or 9/11. I’m an older millennial, so I guess I’ve just seen how the world has always been crazy."
