Nah. Just waiting for the better term. I've heard different names bandied about recently. Zoomers, I feel like is the most prevalent.The Argonaut wrote:The Gen z moniker is pretty ensconced at this point

Re: I hereby abandon Gen X
Zoomer is just a pun on "Gen Z" and "Boomer"
In Spanish we call them "centennials" but it makes no sense when you think about it

Re: I hereby abandon Gen X
Yeah, zoomers is more like a cute name for use in memes and such. And it's a play off of Gen Z, so not descriptive in any way.
The time for a re-name has passed. Gen Z is already entering adulthood and the workforce.
The next generation after Z should be called Generation Omega, since they are most likely humanity's last

I've always secretly wished I was Gen-X. They're probably the coolest generation.

Re: I hereby abandon Gen X
That's why it's the perfect name. It takes the absurdity of "gen z" and mashes it in a memeingful way with "boomer" which is ironic and hilarious and very representative of the generation.The Argonaut wrote:Yeah, zoomers is more like a cute name for use in memes and such.
You can't stand by "Gen Z." It's disgraceful and stupid.

I kind of think he used it a little wrong and I used it a little more rightly. But that's beside the point

We are . And I had a rotary phone. And you could do tricks with it.JuanHamm wrote:I've always secretly wished I was Gen-X. They're probably the coolest generation.
Like , instead of long dialing the numbers , you would just click the hang-up button like morse code.
1 pause then 1 1 1 real fast for 3 etc.
Also if you dialed 411 I think and hung up the phone would ring
