    You have to remember that gen Z’ers are early twenties. It’s not usually the early 20s ones that are cringe, it’s the younger teenagers who, almost as a rule, are always pretty cringe. They don’t have the sense and forethought to not do really, really embarrassing stuff. They’re just full of emotions and hormones and those impulses aren’t tampered by fully developed brains thinking better than to…do really weird stuff. It’s not out of the ordinary. Millennials are late twenties to late thirties/early 40s.

      Oh, I just meant the first part. Yes, we’re out of touch. We’re old. Deal with it. Don’t be like my mother, dying your hair into your 70s.

      I thought we killed generational trend analysis anyway.

        Your mom sounds pretty cool, actually. My mother is around the same age and like straight out of medieval times in terms of how she sees the world.
