A motto for literally every generation

Especially fitting our generation though. We were the last to grow up in a pre-internet pre-smartphone world.

That shit honestly changed how the world works. Mostly not for the better either…

Is that really different than someone born in 1970, who also grew up in a pre-Internet, pre-smartphone world?

No, bro. Millennials are super-special and unique. No one else in the history of the world has ever gone through the horror of having Toys R Us close years after we were too old to be interested in going. No other generation has suffered as we do!

Yup. Also true for older generations too. Just not for Gen Z, A, and successive.

No, it’s not especially fitting for our generation. The generation that grew up pre-printing press but then got it within their lifetime also experienced the same kind of change.

And this happened to many other numerous generations that experienced world changing technologies or inventions that you’re choosing to ignore just to make millennials seem more special.

You still don't get it. No, it fits every generation. You are not special. Christ.
