30 Millennial Trends Gen Zers In This Online Group Are Sick And Tired Of

ADVERTISEMENT

There have been a lot of talks and discussions about how different generations are and how that affects them understanding each other and getting along. Having this in mind, Reddit user @Prolificvisions decided to ask: “Gen Z, what are some trends, ideologies, social things, etc. that millennials did that you're not going to continue?” The question that got 12.4k upvotes got generation Z naming things that they find weird and annoying, such as not having any privacy or choosing a stable job that they don’t like instead of going for their dream. They also named some of the rather funny answers such as getting rid of the fashion of “weird-a** eyebrows.”

If you are Gen Z, what things would you say “bye” to? Don’t forget to leave your thoughts in the comments down below!

30 Millennial Trends Gen Zers In This Online Group Are Sick And Tired Of Work for money, not for passion.

I know it’s depressing but recently a lot of younger millennials were talking about how they want to do something they like. My coach is getting a PhD in history, My economics teacher is going to Law School because she doesn’t make enough etc. and I just can’t think of a reason to justify that much debt. Basically they’re putting themselves in tons of debt to make enough money in something they enjoy. I can’t see a reason to justify it enough. I just want to find a field I’m GOOD at and don’t hate.

30 Millennial Trends Gen Zers In This Online Group Are Sick And Tired Of I say this as a "millennial" (though must point out the lines between the two are blurred aren't they?) -

Facebook

I have friends also in their early 30s who had kids young. In high school now, teenagers. NONE of that age group use Facebook. It's an "old person's thing" to them. Though being 12/13 it is invariably described as "gay", but you get my point.

As someone who works in the music industry, we plough literally millions (collectively) into Facebook ads each year. But within the next few years it will no longer be our primary social media target.

Which is a shame, because as one of the first and most established social media platforms, it has great advertising tools.

Almost none of these are things that Millennials actually started. History goes back more than 20 years, folks

I only got to No.14 before I couldn't take the stupidity of this list anymore. I think it was put together by people who weren't born before millennial times so have no idea that most of these things were all ready happening in the 80s or earlier - so before millennials were even born. And the one that says "Assign stereotypes to people born in certain years", when this whole post is just that. :-D
