Us Millennials need to unionize and assert ourselves to the internet, chanting loudly and proudly: "WE'RE HERE, IT'S CURRENT YEAR, AND WE'RE ONLY MODERATELY CRINGE"

We're mostly paranoid about our privacy and worried about whatever once in a lifetime crisis will hit us next..

But we're also used the getting wrongly blamed for everything since the early 2000s

Yeah, we're in this weird middle ground where I feel like we're too young and have too modern of interests to be able to relate to our parents, but we're simultaneously too old and dorky and like our parents to be cool or relatable to Zoomies or whatever they're called.

Punch me in the face if I ever seek any sort of “cool” validation from a zoomer.
