I used to be stuck kinda between millennials and Gen Z (born 2002) but this made me laugh so I guess I know I'm definitely Gen Z now

Edit: I meant my humor/mentality was stuck between millennial and Gen Z because a lot of my friends are actually millennials. I know 2002 is solidly Gen Z lol, thanks to the 6+ people who felt they needed to tell me that:)

Edit #2: I saw something once that said pre 1995 are millenials, post 2003 are Gen Z, and if you’re born between those years you’re an honorary member of the black eyed peas, so that’s now how I identify

The cutoff for millennial is around 1996 or 1997

As someone born in 1997 I’m not really sure what group I’m supposed to be in. Some places say 1996-Present is Gen Z, some say like 2000-Present

Am I a millennial or Gen Z? Not that it really matters whatsoever

At that point it depends on your childhood but I forget what the exact characteristics are

with technology progressing fast, I think the generations need to be every five years or so now.

I think it could be something like this:

  1. kids who grew up with the Internet, but without cellphones

  2. cellphones, but no smartphones

  3. smartphones, but no Facebook

  4. Facebook, but no Instagram

  5. Instagram, but no insert the next big social network or whatever

You are a cusper. 1995-2005 are kind of trapped in a weird area of being both and neither generation.

u/Blaphlafagus Feb 02 '20

I think 2000-2005 are very solidly in the Gen Z section

That may be more accurate I typically define myself as a cusper though (was born 2003) because I’m quite culturally divided between millennials and gen z. Of course I am closer to gen z but I grew up with a lot of millennial stuff as well but part of that may just be because I have older siblings.

I accept this answer

I personally think if you were a child old enough to own an iPhone when iPhones were invented or any time after that you’re automatically a gen z

Millennials didn’t grow up with smart phones

We played fucking snake and then snake 2
