Conveniently forgetting that many of the things people complain about with "millennials" are actually attributed to gen Z, since everyone forgets that millennials can be as old as late 30's. Decades from now, somehow, we'll still be blaming stuff that those damn kids do on millennials.

I had a supervisor a couple years ago who complained about millennials, I forget the context. He's 37 or 38 now. I told him "dude, you're a millenial" which at first was met with denials but a couple of minutes of googling and he accepted it. Never heard him complain about millenials again. Good guy, conservative but able to change his mind when faced with new information.

Had a job interview a few weeks ago where the interviewer told me "Careful you sound like a millennial" in a condescending way. I responded with "ummm, I literally am a millennial."
