There is a strong argument to be made that Generation Alpha is the third age group to be filled with so-called ‘digital natives’, after Gen Z and millennials. If the older, younger generations are anything to go by, they are the wildest and most brainrotted generation yet. Perhaps this is a little unfair, especially considering …

29-year-old berates her 35-year-old sister-in-law because she looks young for her age, sulks when waiter assumes she’s 18-years-old: ‘She told me I should wear a bib since I’m such a baby’
Everyone is extremely weird about age. I’ll never forget the time I was at a bar with my friends when two 21-year-olds approached us. One of them turned 21 that very day, and this was the first bar she ever went to legally. She asked me and my friends how old we were. I said, …

Gen Zers make fun of millennials for never making big purchases on their phones and reserving them for computers: ‘I ain’t about to mess up a $500+ purchase just cuz it’s convenient’
It’s easy to criticize someone slightly older or younger than you for their technological quirks. I find it funny when millennials claim they learned coding in middle school because they changed their Tumblr themes with HTML. To me, that’s just a wee bit overselling their skills. On the other hand, a millennial could easily criticize …

‘Stop being so insecure, nobody is thinking about you as much as you think’: Men in their 40s give advice to men in their 20s
Whether you admit it or not, we all want somebody smarter and more experienced than us to impart wisdom to us. It doesn’t come in the form of a wizard man appearing at the foot of your bed at night to warn you of something grave. It’s usually a much more literary manner of imparting …

‘Gen X decided not to bother teaching their children how to have a conversation’: Older generations complain about Gen Z’s communication skills
The generation wars are always a rich source of online conflict, and that is never truer than when people are finding reasons to criticize Gen Z. We’re still a few years off the first Gen Alpha cohort entering young adulthood, so it’s the 2000s kids that still remain in the spotlight when it comes to …

‘Most people I’ve known peaked somewhere between 25 and 30’: Youngsters debate whether your 20s or 30s are your true prime
Ever since I was a teenager, I’ve been afraid of «peaking.» The idea of reaching a point where you feel like «everything’s downhill from here» was and still is terrifying. I remember being in the car with my high school girlfriend’s dad, and we talked about peaking in high school. I mentioned not wanting to …

‘Parenting where kids are allowed to have feelings’: Millennials share the positive trends that their generation have started
Historically speaking, millennials have been a much-maligned generation that has faced critique from both sides. Boomers and Gen X have written them off as a bunch of self-indulgent spendthrifts, and Gen Z has made a point about dismissing them as cringe. While the adults also known as Gen Y are far from the perfect cohort, …

Millennial criticizes Gen Zers with the minds of 16-year-olds and the faces of 32-year olds: ‘Boomers thought the same about your generation’
As a Gen Zer, I know that it’s expected of me to get into generational squabbles with millennials. I’m supposed to say they’re cringe adult Harry Potter fans who are pushing 50, but I’m not going to do that. I have a shred of dignity left in my Zoomer body, and I intend to maintain …

‘I don’t wanna spend my money’: Stingy traveler claims that people in their 20s shouldn’t have real vacations
One way in which I am very lucky is that I have had a relatively well-traveled youth. This has never been a luxury cruise, five-star hotel kind of experience, but it has been enriching nonetheless. Seeing the world is one of those things a lot of older people get misty-eyed about when they’re trying to …

29-Year-Old Man Brags About ‘Training’ His 19-Year-Old Girlfriend Into ‘The Perfect Woman For Him’
Age gap relationships are among my favorite and least favorite pieces of internet discourse. If I’m being honest, I have been a valiant defender of some age-gap relationships on Memebase. I don’t like when slight age gaps are blamed for other obvious issues in relationships, and I especially don’t like it when people infantilize perfectly …
