In a recent interview with Bored Panda, ‘Rooster’ shared that it was communicating with younger friends and family that made them ask the question about the so-called ‘old person’ hills millennials are willing to die on.

“I originally posted that question because I’ve become so surprised at how some of my friends and family—mostly the younger ones—tend to use the ‘reactions’ to text messages,” they said, emphasizing that it’s the reactions that pop up after pressing on a message for a little while and not emojis that they’re talking about. “There seemed to be a lot of confusion—and even some anger—about that,” they said.

“It seems like they [young friends and family] feel the need to attach a reaction to every message that gets sent, despite the fact that they’re also replying with… you know… words,” the OP continued. “It made me wonder if they perceive the fact that I don’t do this as rude or as bad manners.

My favorite restaurant gives each diner a tablet with the digital menu on it (from where you can’t order, but may view additional details or see the content in other languages).

The redditor told Bored Panda that they really enjoyed reading through people’s answers; though, some more than others. “A lot of ‘super clever and hilarious’ people decided to reply with just a thumbs up emoji—good one! Very original—in addition to a couple of ‘okay boomer’-style replies; those stung a little, if I’m being honest.”

Be that as it may, they added that they agreed with quite a few of the answers they read. “It seems there was a lot of common consensus among the millennials on a number of topics,” Rooster said. “Some highlights include:

Headlights these days are too dang bright!
People shouldn’t listen to their dang music/videos or take phone calls on dang speakerphone in public!
Everything requires a dang subscription these days!
People need to get off their dang phones and touch grass! And stay off your phones while driving! (Lots of ‘being in the car’ gripes, I have to say.)
And OH MY GOSH, people hate the QR code menus and want their paper menus back! I’d venture a guess that 30-40% of people who posted complained about QR code menus. Certainly the most common comment.

“As for what surprised me the most, honestly it was the lack of toxicity,” the OP continued to share. “The internet is often thought of as a cesspool of negativity, but the millennials mostly had gripes about pretty reasonable things and—mostly—didn’t say anything bigoted or homophobic or transphobic; although sadly there were one or two [comments].”

Discussing why it is sometimes difficult for people to accept or get used to certain things other—especially, younger—generations do, the director of the Center of Innovation in Social Science and A&S Distinguished Professor of sociology Dr. Deborah Carr pointed out that throughout history, every generation has judged the generation that follows them.

“It is often hard to put ourselves in others’ shoes and understand each other’s preferences for music, lifestyle, spending habits, and more. Also, our worlds are very age-segregated, so it is difficult to really get to know people of other age groups outside of our own family members. It’s very easy to judge those people we don’t know well,” she told Bored Panda in a recent interview.

For the OP, it was the reactions on messages and certain aspects of using technology that they didn’t see eye to eye with the younger generation about. But that didn’t mean that they were dreading using technology altogether; and, according to Prof. Carr, neither do generations older than millennials.

“It’s a stereotype that old people fear technology,” she noted. “Many baby boomers and Gen Xers were at the forefront of the tech revolution. Past generations pioneered internet dating, email, and more. Much older adults might have been initially uncomfortable with technology, but even people in their 70s and 80s learned to Zoom with their families during the pandemic.

“Many older people—and rightfully so—fear that virtual communication takes away the human touch – virtual friends can’t provide the same kind of nurturing and support as those who pay in-person visits. Older people also have fewer reasons to hop onto the newest technology. For people who are retired, they can make do perfectly fine using just the basics.”

Half the kids I meet casually talk about their adhd and/or autism. I understand seeking a medical diagnosis is inaccessible for a small number of people (due to finances, parental denial, etc) but it is not 50% of teenagers. There is a reason why we have diagnostic criteria. Being forgetful happens to us all sometimes. So does getting distracted in the middle of doing a task. That does not mean we all have adhd. So many kids I meet are self-diagnosing based on a 30-second TikTok they saw. Many 20-somethings I know are doing it as well.

On a related note, the overuse and misuse of “therapy language” also needs to stop. Someone who pushes back on you when you say something inaccurate is not an “abuser”. You can’t set a “boundary” that you get breaks whenever you want at work to play on your phone. Like, come on.

But when discussing people’s relationships with technology and other aspects of modern-day life, it’s important to keep in mind that no matter the generation, people are all different, and millennials are no exception.

“There is no single type of millennials,” Prof. Carr emphasized. “This generation is very diverse with respect to age, gender identity and sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, education, national origin, economic resources, and more. They did share some pivotal experiences that have shaped them, however. They were very young when the 9/11 attacks occurred, and their childhood and adolescent years were punctuated by high-visibility school shootings. Many were young adults launching their careers and marriages when the pandemic struck. So, they have faced major challenges throughout their lives, with technology being a double-edged sword. Some use technology to cope and connect, whereas for others it’s a source of pressure, FOMO, bullying and more.”

While no two people are exactly the same, they might share certain views or opinions, shaped by significant events of their time. “The historical events—whether wars, pandemics, or economic recessions—that strike during their formative years can create tremendous obstacles (or offer tremendous opportunities) as young adults pursue goals like school, jobs, home ownership and more,” Prof. Deborah Carr pointed out.

“Some generations have greater historical luck than others. It’s important to recognize that our successes are not due solely to personal strengths or ‘grit’ and to acknowledge the historical benefits (or disadvantages) that different generations face. Most people are doing their best to carve out meaningful lives, sometimes against the odds. Judging generations as weak, narrow-minded, selfish, or any of the negative labels bandied about is just counterproductive and based on stereotype rather than fact.”

45 “Old Person” Hills That Millennials Are Also Willing To Die On The world was a better place when it was considered taboo to talk about political views. I remember my parents would offhandedly comment at home about who they were planning on voting for and then immediately be like "don't ever repeat that at school, and never ask someone who they're voting for, that's private and nobody else's business".

Nah - politics do and should concern everybody, and discussing controversial views is the only way society and democracy can make decisions and move forward. The problem is people making one party, one issue, one campaign, or one candidate the whole focus of their lives. No wonder they feel threatened by people who see things differently - to them their one "stable" column supporting their lives wobbling must seem like a world shattering event and an attempt on their lives.

I'm the oldest queer person at my work with the others ranging from 17-23. So, mine is related to behaviors I've observed from them and from a lot of other lgbt zoomers. I think a lot of people nowadays have turned experiencing oppression into a virtue and or like...almost something fun? (Yes, if you were wondering, all of us are white) And a lot of people treat having a fluid or complicated gender/sexual identity or being kinky or polyamorous as something that's more enlightened and morally superior compared to being like, a monogamous cis butch lesbian with a wife and kids, or a binary trans person who wants all the surgeries and hormones and wants to pass and be treated just like anyone else of your gender.

More like an unpopular opinion, but the further further into the new generations get the more and more I feel they just like to complain about anything and everything. Like it does not matter a Gen Zer will complain about the most stupid thing in the world. Like Eminem. You do not speak for your whole generation or anyone else’s so stop talking. Also, they are going to have trouble in life because they do not know basic life skills. And instead of getting off of their a*s and learning them, they’re just gonna blame other generations that they don’t know how to do things. And I’m honestly over it.

Kiddo, you can't change your style every two weeks and attach core to a random buzzword. You need to look into your soul, your lifestyle, your likes and dislikes, and make boundaries about what goes on your body. I hate to go back in my day, but back in my day when we were goth, we only had the power of our imaginations and our DIY skills to create a look. We ripped fishnets, shredded jeans, raided Halloween stores army surplus and thrift stores, learned to sew, forgot to hem, held our clothes together with safety pins and hot glue, used white out on our combat boots, made our jewelry, used copious amounts of eyeliner and dyed our hair with kool-aid and splat. We made our styles ourselves. If we did buy something, we either had to save up for docs and Tripp pants, and God forbid you were Lolita because those dresses started at 500 dollars in those days.

I just had to deal with the app thing. We went to universal island of adventure yesterday. Had a great time but ordering food was a nightmare. Had to download the app. Create an account, choose the restaurant we were in which gave us the menu. Pick what we wanted, then add a payment card by typing all the details as scanning the card is not a function in the app, then scan the qr code to input the table number as the app does not let you type it in. Also had to ask someone if we could actually get water that didn’t cost $6 plus tax per bottle. Thankfully we could just ask for cups when the food came which we did and the server looked rather confused about it. It was such a faff and there was no need for it.

It’s narrow minded, shortsighted and incredibly forgetful. Remember your parents telling you punk was just noise? Or rock / pop / metal / county / blues being better ‘back in the day’? My daughter is a big fan of K-Pop, it’s so far from my tastes that it’s unreal, BUT she’s listening to music, learning about another culture, it’s great to listen to her enthusiasm and enjoyment, I’m not about to rain on her parade just because it’s not Metallica or Bonamassa or Bach.

I'm gonna take another chance to preach this gospel: Get ready to buy a f*****g house. Yes, they used to be way cheaper back when boomers were buying, but boomers also needed 20% down and had 15% interest rates. That meant that for a $200,000 house, you needed to save $40,000 and pay another $30,000 every year in interest rates. Today, you need 2% down, and there were recently interest rates as low as 3%. You'll probably pay 6%. 6% of a $400,000 means annual interest payments of $24,000. If you can't find a home for way less than $400,000, move. GTFO of New York, California, Boston, DC, etc.
