i'm gen z. it's kind of wild how the oldest gen alpha would be like 14 i think? like woah time really is moving on
 
I’m smack dab in the middle of millennials, 1987, but I’m in the 60% of millennials who don’t view themselves as millennials. I more closely associate with Gen X. I grew up getting off the bus when my parents weren’t home and letting myself in, remember before we had a computer in the house and before internet, when having a cellphone meant you were very well-off or important, etc. I’ll be 37 tomorrow, actually!

I was born in 1996, so technically a millennial, but the timeline is so wide I don’t relate to a lot of the “nostalgia” they talk about. (Like early- to mid- ‘90s stuff.) I guess I’m an old Gen Z because I get their “nostalgia” for late 90s and early to mid 2000s and that’s what I identify more closely with.
 
Millennial here and I pretty much relate to the group, especially to those in my country. I also like how "Millennials" sounds, almost whimsical. Thousand years or one hundred decades or ten centuries is a quite a big deal, wouldn't you say? :cool:
 
2005, so i’m a gen z. i’m not too sure where i’d place myself though, so i’m probably middle gen z because the oldest are almost 30 and the youngest are around 12.

old enough to remember the nintendo wii, young enough to be affected by the glorious mid 2010’s brain rot. perfect.

Um I have no idea. I'm born the late 1990s so my childhood was early 2000s so - I don't really get the names or why we're grouped like this XD
 
I was born in 2002, so gen Z! I'm grateful I was born when I was and that I got to grow up in the time period that I did, but if I think too long about how the oldest gen Alphas turned/are turning 14 this year and how a lot of them won't know or recognize the things I grew up with, I Will have an existential crisis LOL.

I saw someone the other day who was shocked to learn that Harry Styles was in One Direction......... I literally remember when their first song came out.... I nearly checked myself into a retirement home lmao
 
I was born in early 2002, so I’m an older Gen Z. I had pretty unfiltered internet access as a kid, but I didn’t get my own smartphone until I was 14.
 
I was born very early 90s, so a millennial.
I'm familiar with some 80s stuff as a result, since the previous decade tends to ooze in the next, but generally 90s and 00s are more prevalent in memory.
 
i'm just barely a millenial, born in 1995. it's interesting cus i don't really relate to either stereotypical millenials or gen z

one of the older gen z for sure...... back before cellphones and the internet were a thing in my place, me and the neighborhood kids would play on the streets daily after class. basketball, bicycles, hide and seek, all that stuff. kind of a shame now that many kids are given access to the internet at such an early age and are left unsupervised most of the time, it would be nice to let kids be kids and experience the world outside their gadgets. (now that im saying all this i sound like a boomer im sorry)

but i digress, im happy i was born just before the 2000s. had a pretty nice childhood. also my dad is an old-school guy so i did grow up with vhs and cassette tapes even though CDs were already a thing.
 
I’m one of the younger millennials (born in 1993). But I prefer to spend more time with those born prior to 1980.
 
I guess technically I'm a Millenial. I seem to remember a lot of griping about 'Millenials' growing up, as I'm sure happens with every generation from the older generation, but I remember bristling at the idea of being one. I think early on the dates weren't as sure/set as it was emerging as a new generational label, so I always thought I was still in Gen X. Anyway, now I just like to think of myself as a Child of the 80's =)
 
1994 baby! It’s actually crazy how much the world has changed, bring back furbys, msn and rugrats on the ps1 please 😂
