as Zoomers attain the mantle of 'older than the kids that are older than the babies,' I hope Gen Alpha views our detached cynicism with the same type of scorn we view quipsnark winknodding with

if I had to isolate a truly insufferable 'generational trait' along the wave of my peers it would be that. please give us a hard time for it if we continue the generational wars against you, we deserve it

Generations are a fuck but also you've gotta be in your twenties at the oldest, you don't get to be almost Kids These Days. You are kids these days.
- The oldest zoomers are like 28, ten years after legal adulthood definitely qualifies them for a Kids These Days license
  
  The oldest millennial is 50 or so and I'm in my early 30s, generations are nonsense and it's generally bad to generalize based around the oldest of a made uo demographic regardless.

I fart on all generations

I thought GenX owned detached cynicism.
Is this shit just in a cycle?
- X-ers are cynical chauvinists. Zoomers are cynical nihilists.
  
  We call it absurdism thank you

Of course I can only speak for my zoomer friend group, and things can always change as we age, but I feel like the prevailing opinion of ours for the kids is pity. Like the contradictions and crisis that have made our last decade shit are only going to get worse for them. Here's hoping we don't continue the war.
