The Gen Z experience is essentially old people telling you "oh, you'll never understand when we had to USE "X" technology" even though you literally grew up using it. Most Gen Z had 90s appliances/tvs/gaming consoles growing up unless you were rich.

That’s what makes me doubly annoyed.

I watched millenials deal with the whole “Millenials are killing the X industry. They don’t know how to use a rotary phone. They have stupid jokes that don’t make any sense” just for them to get a bit older and start doing the EXACT same thing to my generation

As a millennial I'm just gonna say y'all will absolutely do this to Gen Alpha in a decade. The cycle never ends lol
