Not a hot take but I find the whole generations thing (Millennial, Gen X, etc) extremely silly. Obviously there are people who grew up at the same time and have similar experiences, but um, did you know people are born every day? Like I'm directly in between Millennial and Gen Z, so I only identify with about 30% of either of their "things". I had VHS growing up, but I was still a kid when the Recession happened. I got my first cell phone in high school(I think?), and it was one of those slide keyboard ones that were very briefly popular. The idea that people are born within a span of like 8 years and then they skip 5 is just goofy. And yet many people seem to really take it all seriously.
