Yes, could someone post the videos that are actually funny?

No. Go to TikTok.

I don’t feel like it. Just do the work for me, thanks.

You don’t even have the app is what’s funny. You don’t know how to find them.

Oh honey.

Taking this really hard? Like for real?

DP. Yes. They’re big mad. “They can’t take my skinny jeans and side part and laugh cry emoji! This is the generation that ate tide pods! We invented all their trends! I’ll rock my skinny jeans to the liquor store, ha!” It’s sooooooo embarrassing, they sound legit like Boomers.

Original pp and yep, I am seeing these exact same memes. I am so embarrassed for my peers. Imagine being in your 30s and feeling the need to taunt 18 year olds about not being able to go to the liquor store. Like calm down and go check on your 401k or something.

I’m the PP. also millennial. I was texting my sister recently and there’s a big split between millennials. Ones who are like 28-35 are okay. They don’t try to act younger but they behave in age appropriate ways and are reasonably on trend. The ones who are 35-40 are the cringe millennials. Stuck in like 2008-2012. They’re still obsessed with stuff like Friends and the Office. They like infinity scarves and knee boots. Think people care to see lots of pictures of their kids. They’re the ones who are having the biggest issue with this because it’s like they actually don’t understand yeah you’re at or approaching middle age. I also think they have this weird complex because Gen Z kids are way more confident than they ever were at that age. They also didn’t really have ugly awkward stages the way other generations did because they’ve grown up with stuff like makeup tutorials and social media showing them trends. Old millennials are weirdly bitter about this.

So basically you’re saying you’re a millennial but you’re cool bc you’re in the good group and all older millennials are desperate losers? Sorry but that sounds just as desperate as the uncool older ones. And what is reasonably ontrend? The fashion forward trends that look great on teens and college students generally don’t look right on any millennial or older person.

Older millennials are lame. They just are. Their humor isnt funny. they think liking Target is a personality, they reference Mean Girls like it’s still 2004, someone did this at the top of the page. All their references are dated. The 1980-1985 millennials are totally different than the 85-93 millennials.

Ok but if you were born in 1985 how do you know if you are a 1980-1985 or 85-93 millennial??? Lol. I suspect the deciding factor is whether you are mad about teenagers making fun of your style.

1985 people can go either way. You have to know your own personality. You’re either more young millennial or more old millennial. I could tell if I knew you in real life but only you know for sure.

Just curious, what do the good, young millennials think is funny? What are some acceptable cultural references?

Nothing. At 64 you should be rotting in a grave.
Sorry, I couldn't help it.

So they switched from 80s to 90s fashions. I see where this is going.I'm bailing before they bring back velvet bedazzled sweat pants.

You guys are adults talking about children. Just want to be clear. You’re trying to position yourself as better than ... kids. Pathetic.

Ok and they’re children talking about adults. What’s your point?

The whole thing is weird. I spent zero mental energy thinking about people in their 30s when I was a teenager. Now I mean I’m one of those 1985 people, so we had barely any social media when I was a teen. But my point still stands. Are people my age or a little older spending a lot of time harassing teens on TikTok? Where is this anti-millennial sentiment coming from? Millennials aren’t their parents unless they were very young parents.

I’m honestly sort of over here with the “I have a nice house and drive a luxury SUV lady” at this point. Those kids are completely irrelevant to me. Literally who cares what they think?

[Anonymous]

I feel like this thread is being propelled by an extremely cringey 34-year-old who wants to pretend she’s still a teen.

Sounds about right. Also weird they're proud of being a "young Millennial." All the crap Gen X and the Boomers hated about the Millennials was mostly that group, not the "Oregon Trail" older Millennials. Very odd.

She’s a pick-me ass Millennial.
