Lol what, did you want to be Gen Z or something? Technically you’re on the borderline, and people on the borderlines of generations are kind of a mix of the two gens. So I guess you’d be a … Zalpha? Alphaz? Idk
Unless my 5th grade kid had a kid, no. You’re just getting old. Alpha’s been with us for a while now.
The marker is supposedly anyone born entirely within the 21st century and living in a world that’s connected to the internet 24/7 since birth. The “iPad kids”.
I tend to agree with the person you’re responding to in that actual generations tend to be marked by massive paradigm shifts more than chunks of years.
Like fall of the Berlin wall through 9-11 is a generation.
9-11 through COVID is a generation.
COVID until the water wars is a generation.
It’s marked by things that the basically the whole world is affected by, and we all experience it together in some way.
Agreed. There’s isn’t enough of a difference between a number of the recent gens. I feel like the millennials were the last big one that made sense to me.
There’s gonna be a big shift in the way that we consume media that there’s gonna be a difference between generations that grew up before that big shift and the generation that grew up after that big shift.
More the latter than the former. GenZ commonly includes 2005ish, and people born in the early 2000s got to experience the proliferation of the internet during their childhood
Is it just me or is there a new generation about every 4 months lately?
Gen Alpha started in 2010 bro, where ya been?
My question is who comes up with these names?? Is there a commission I was never invited?
Generation Fucked didn’t stick and tbh covers too many years.
Wait… I was born close to the start of 2010.
Am I gen alpha?
Yeah
:'(
