- Why Do Millennials Look Like This?
If you've ever wondered why millennials look the way they do, so have I. In this video I explain how millennials have looksmaxxed.

He's just describing the male demographic of Reddit. It's not a generational matter.
True
Yeah, your grandpa may have a degen beatnik uncle. It would be like saying the whole silent generation are like that.
Good thing I never made an account
And the pseudointellectual demographic of You Tube..
Physically weak adult males with smug condescending snarky attitudes.
They know everything and mock rural people without realizing we dismiss them as useless.
Its a politics matter tho
replace millennials with chronically online
*chronically online millenials
No it's millennial
Kikelennials* yw
Zoomers and gen alpha are the ones that are chronically online, not millenials.
Fax
These are the guys calling other guys "incels" online.
Correct
Destiny talks to incels all the time I think he's more open to trying to help them rather than bash them as someone he disagrees with which unfortunately is really common atm lmfao.
As a millennial, I got your back, brother
also "simps"
Without incels they’ll be incels as well. Both groups are dipshits.
think you're describing left-wing guys rather than millennials.
Yeah... that is exactly that.
Is there honestly a difference? Lol
There's too much overlap.
@@amandajean7738then why we’re all the pics of left wingers… there are right wing millennial influencers. Not in this video tho. Just left wingers being called millennials.
I was just about to say.
Ill have to disagree with you. You're attacking a certain archetype known as a "soyboy", not millenials as a group. There are plenty of honerable people in every generation, and plenty of snakes in every generation.
Yep. That is the soft millenials. There are plenty millenials that arent this. Me included.
Yes, as a millennial we have called the ones you describe as soyboys for a long time. They are typically virtue signaling leftists who are really insecure cowards.
Agreed.
I respectfully disagree. He is spot on. Born in 1981. All valid points.
Not to mention there are soyboys who are Gen Z or whatever its called. The soylent grin, hipster specs and neckbeard are not a generational thing.
they're mocking existence so they don't have to face criticism or disappointment.
I think you summed it up better than anyone else. If your entire existence is an ironic, self-deprecating joke, then every criticism can be dismissed with “I don’t care”. It’s a defense mechanism.
Yep you got it, this should be upvoted
I agree, I'm a millennial and it seems like a lot of my peers are in a state of perpetual defensive apathy.
Incredulity and scepticism are signals of social currency among them, but only when it comes to deviations from the secular status quo.
It's very insecure behavior.
Exactly, it’s a manifestation of unresolved insecurities projected onto the external world
The people who unironically say this are the ones who are being mocked.
Don't forget the 'hipster' oversized horn-rimmed glasses that ironically mimic the 50s style.
You reminded me of the sleepycabin clip where Zach Hadel talks about going to barcade and counting the amount of guys they saw there with thick rim glasses, as a game with his buddies while there.
Straight up and i like it :)
Those existed before the 50s
My GOD, I hate those things. I'm a 50-year-old liberal gay man and I have JUST about had enough of EVERY DAMN KID wearing those nasty SJW glasses.
NOBODY looks good in them. Even the characters in the new Dungeons and Dragons art have them on. What the fuuuuuck?

Fascinating
@@commanderknee3821Most men aren’t left wing. If only men voted almost every state in the Union would be Republican. Don’t let the Demoralization campaign fool you into thinking that there is no hope. Most men are ready to fk sht up. These left wing influencers are pssys.
Millennial man here, its refreshing to see this called out. The lazy beard and soft opinions are everywhere, you know when a dude has a mullet and a mustache he's about as rebellious as a chest of drawers.
The snowboarder sunglasses and a backwards trucker hat need to be included in ypur assessment.
Lazy beard and soft opinions - perfect description.
Nose piercing and black nails as well....🤮
They could bring back fedora hats
Also millennial man, maybe it's because I'm in a rural area, but these people just don't exist anywhere but the internet.

The "soyjack" stereotype isn't really a generational thing, more of a personality archetype.
You're talking about a topic that was already getting thoroughly scrutinised in the mid 2010's internet culture
Agreed.
Yeah, this guy is just too young to see outside the generational gap.
This guy doesn't even know wtf he's talking about in this video. He looks like the stereotypical gen z skinny guy with fron bangs hair like you see in the millions in the street and whines about the stereotypical soyjack? Lmao the irony
Big open mouth grin on the face. Look how genuinely happy I am! They learned it from their moms and female teachers.
But the suffering in their dead eyes is palpable.
Yep, as fake as it gets!
My theory was always that it's boring people trying to overcompensate
Whats worse is thw guys got some good features...
Near perfect hairline good beard
If he wad tall and healthier he could do great
I hate that so much, and im a millennial
dude the modern mullet is a gen z thing
Yeah it's the elder z look. I had a mullet but I'm a junior millennial 95. I had the mullet before the explosion of them 2016. I was also painting houses.
Literally never seen a Gen Z kid have it, it’s always millennials
@@Terminal_Apotos I see younger kids have it all the time, and some gen x-ers trying to seem hip maybe?
@@habibikebabtheiii2037 right on brotha, but I don't recall seeing many-mullets in the glory days of '16, it was all about the side part comb over back den
@@Terminal_Apotos also dude haven't you seen a broccoli style mullet/wolf cut?
It’s upbringing. Millennials growing up with Gen X humor and in a world where they were told stuff like you just need a college degree… the world was insincere so they’re reflecting that
Gen Z grew in straight harsh reality. Have crippling need to be seen and liked from social media so their humor is absurdist. The shit is just make the most random stuff ever like late night Adult Swim
This is an excellent point; however, looking back I remember them being insincere even back in 04-08 in HS although not to the same extent. Maybe every generation has insincere people its just that insincerity is in vogue right now.
Millennials are the generation that says can't have kids because of climate change
Complete insanity
They always try to find excuses, like just admit you’re a loser and not mature enough to have one, and don’t try to take it with pride to be edgy.
You're conflating millennials with SJW lunatics, very few millennials are the latter
Ngl that’s a valid reason.
@@DivinesLegacyI don’t like these type of millennials but I understand their point. Not everyone needs to be a parent. There’s to many stupid fucking parents around.
hilarious how we think of boomers as being conservative and millennials being liberal and forget that conservative millennials and liberal boomers exist too
its crazy we think that roses are red, but in some extremely rare cases roses are white! lolol im so correct and profound
thats the actual stereotype and sad state of affairs:
extremely polarized, binary thinking.
no nuance.
sign of intellectual decline.
Wait, eggshell white skin, prominent red lips, obviously not a natural blonde, touched up eyebrows, and wearing a necklace indoors? Are you sure you dont fit the millennial archetype?
Right? This is basically just another Gen z vid hypocritically mocking millennials while ignoring their own generations similar stereotypes.

Both are pretty bad.
Aside from pointing out the inability to be sincere, even with professional writers, it's all focusing on one class of chronically online content creators.
@@Nersius true, his topic is more like the "SOYBOY" type of men than the general millenial... like his intro with bearded men with open mouth is the very definition of the soyjack meme.

Lack of sincerity is the first sign of weakness. I've always hated insincerity.
I'm a millenial and look nothing like those guys you showed. Some of us are straight shooters with a clean look with zero tattoos - although we are rare, we do exist. I have been told I look like a guy in his mid to late 20's even though I am 39 years old.
He seems to be generalizing a bit.
The guys he's talking about are basically millenials who used to be hipsters 10 years ago... far from the majority.
Yeah, you basically explained that you belonge to minority
Preach broter. So am I. People forget the millenials got the last awesome dsys of the 80s and 90s. And some degenerated to that modernized version of millenials.
Same here. I'm 32. Most people think I am a 22 year odm with an overbearing family. Until they hear me speak and think I am some 40 year old PhD with a Philosopher's Stone or some shit.
Rewatch the whole video and mentally replace "milliannial" with "militant atheist"
Reading the comments as a black guy from in the Caribbeans is funny asf cuz why do yall white guys hate eachother so much
Blk people in America are like this with each other too
I think the biggest problem is that you underestimate just how insincere humanity can be. I've met plenty of Gen Z, Gen X, and boomers, on top of millenials, who would gladly throw me or others under the bus (some my own family!). I really don't think this is a generations issue, but a people issue.
Millennials are some of the softest people I’ve met in my life (I’m 43 so I don’t know if I fall into the millennial category or not I’ll be honest I don’t pay attention to it)
However. I will say that they are some of the most intellectually stubborn people you’ll ever meet and that is very much a generational thing, along with the entitlement. They will absolutely die on whatever hill they’re currently discussing and will absolutely not listen to reason or facts. It’s as though they have their own reality
@TheCrapOnYourStrapOn Again, these problems seem more like a human problem, than a generation problem. What you're describing also suits boomers and genz completely.
@TheCrapOnYourStrapOn Though I think I will agree on millenials being pretty soft. It seems to me that each generation keeps getting softer and softer.
@@alexlewis5365 yes I say it’s generational simply by the degree and the sheer widespread commonality. I’ve never met a generation more locked in on ideology at least in my country. They are nearly a monolith. Of course it’s not ALL of them but compared to previous generations it seems that groupthink has really taken hold of nearly an entire generation. Surely it has to do with the internet and the fact that with them you’re either in agreement with them or you’re an evil person
@TheCrapOnYourStrapOn I guess we just agree to disagree then. I think people who try to pin such huge problems on single generations, as opposed to the whole population, without definitive evidence, have a massive blindspot in their judgement. One of the biggest truths about mankind really is, the more things change, the more they stay same. The problems have always been there, regardless of generation.
I think most people genuinely fear of standing out and/or being ostracised if you know what I mean, hence why people tend to get the same haircuts, look the same way, shame others if they’re different from the norm, etc. That’s what I’ve seen in my experience anyway.
I agree. Honestly every generation has a normie look for both sexes that most people conform to.
@@seancaviness7749 the modern ‘mullets’ in particular I see people getting is ridiculous. Like, I rocked a similar trim because I didn’t get my hair cut over lockdown and people rightfully made fun of it, but now since it’s ‘fashionable’ it’s now good? Genuinely baffles my mind how people can’t think with their own heads, like I’d go as far to say 90% of people I meet are just copy paste lol, it’s crazy.
@@THEKaari Based. Humans are social creatures and the worst thing for us besides hunger is being ostracized.
Most people aren't very creative or stylish, so they conform to whatever goofy trends are popular in the moment.
As long as you have your own style that suits your vibe and isn't dogshit then you are already doing better than most.
@@seancaviness7749 I completely agree with you on that man. Admittedly I used to be a doormat too trying to be ‘that guy’ if you know what I mean. Kept trying to always blend in, yadda yadda, but honestly, it made me miserable living so fake y’know? I was actually shunned for not taking part in bad habits if you know what I mean, and at that point I basically snapped and just realised I can’t be in that crowd. I’m me, I’ll talk how I want, be what I want, you get the picture. Does come at a cost to my short-term gratification, but I’d rather take long-term happiness instead now. Best advice I can give you is learn to be your own best friend, since the only person your guaranteed to have in your life is you.
@@THEKaari The last sentence you wrote is incredibly wise.
Why spend your whole life tyring to please people that don't love you and that you can't rely on to be there till the end?
When you adopt your own style, you attract athenticity from people that love you for you rather than an image you're putting up.
Proud of you for realizing that and I hope you spread your wisdom to others.

There is a youtube bias when you see a video top comments always agree overwhelmingly. They get upvoted by those who mindlessly agree without thinking or critically analyzing. Sheep mentality... Then those who create those nonsensical videos with strong opinions keep thinking they are right because someone agreed with them... Cycle goes on. Nothing is gained or understood with any extra depth.
A lot of people do. I was especially amused by the frightened millennials who wrote something like "noooooo. I'm a millennial and I don't look like that at all. That looks are cringe, and I look like a guy from the most alpha manly sigma generation - zoomers. No beard, skinny, dyed hair, dangle earring" XD
No kidding. This is the dumbest fucking video I've ever seen. Okay maybe not dumbest but pretty stupid. Like I can't take anything this guy seriously when half videos are on "looksmaxxing". As if he himself is even doing that. Seems pretty insincere when half of his talking points is that most millennial men are like that and are just being "ironic" yet he himself is not clearly taking that looksmaxxing lifestyle seriously with his looks. Fucker looks like sid the sloth.
But nah just seriously hearing him say shit like "yeah you know that guy with a mullet probably had some substance to him and said politically incorrect things" and I just thought oh hell no it's one of these videos. Just so many bad takes on here and the comment section is unfortunately mostly garbage as well.

It's very vulnerable to be sincere. You have to assess who you are and truthfully try to convey it. You have no fallback of it being some kind of meta irony. Sincerity is deeply attractive and necessary for healthy bonding.
Yes!
they all grew up on family guy, south park, and jackass without understanding any of the adult subtext, then saw the matrix, deadpool, and Michael Cera movies and unanimously said "OMG, THATS LITERALLY ME!!!!" with cobson soyjak face that still hasn't faded
Spot on dude
I have observed that many among them possess a vocal demeanor akin to that of a woman, with unsettling and insincere fluctuations in tone and exaggerated animation in speech.
I don’t even like the women who talk that way. I really think it’s more of an “irritating person” thing than it is a gender trait, despite the fact that those speech patterns are more abundant on the women’s side.
dad went for smokes
Yeah, cause a lot of em tend to be on the rainbow spectrum lol
I think the beard/tattoos look (and to a lesser extent, the obsession with craft beer) a lot of millennial men have is born out of a desire to be seen as a man. They have ironically adopted superficial markers in place of the qualities they are associated with to make up for shortcomings in their own personal development.
Rebirth of the mullet is gen z dude. Also you’re generalizing. Most millennials are not like this. These are mainly the dudes you see online, Which leads to tunnel vision. I walk outside in the real world most millennials are not like this. They’re pretty normal.
I know a couple of people like that, and don’t know that many people
I know right being bearded is a millennial thing I have a big full beard I'm a millennial I've had a beard since highschool I never shaved even when it was still in. I keep up with my beard though it's not nasty it's part of my style. I get compliments all the time.

This is the exact phenomenon. Insincerity is the word I've been searching for but could never find
Everyone is plagued differently boomers “work family” bs, online IG fake lives with filters & sometimes fake experiences didn’t gen z popularize taking fake pictures of other people’s houses & cars?
What you have so eloquently described is the "Soy Boy" or "Male Feminist". It's a terrible thing that has happened to a large sect of millennial men.
I'm a Millennial and know exactly what you're talking about. I've broken out of the cycle but I can tell my generation is super insecure, especially the older they get. It's like my generation can't accept that we got so many things wrong.
Wisdom doesn’t always come with age of course.
I'm millenial I look NOTHING like that, not mindset, not fashion/style, not hair or beard, not the attitude or behavior & definitely don't have them as friends
& IM VERY VERY THANKFUL I DON'T EVERYDAY OF MY LIFE!!
I was born in 82. I would say my ironic sense of insincerity is more Sam Hyde like. It depends on the time and place too though
As a Millennial myself, you're spot on. I think the ultimate root of this phenomenon is insecurity. If you're sincere, you open yourself up to criticism. If everything is ironic, you can always play it off as a joke.
Millennials are between 28 and 43... In regular life, millennials do not dress like this
It's due to suppressed masculinity. Millennial men were constantly preached that their regular thoughts and desires were evil from a young age.

they’re trying to get a conversation going about a observation they made if you’re not willing to even try to comprehend everyone makes observations of patterns they see in culture in contexts and in groups of people so they can get a deeper comprehension of social culture don’t even bother watching videos like these if you’re going to regurgitate this argument it’s not going to be conclusive that’s the whole point of the discussion in the first place 😐@@ukaszrodziewicz1592

You don't know what you're talking about. This entire video is a massive generalisation. You collected some pictures of people who fit the narrative you're trying to make, but you couldn't even get that right. Case in point: 04:50 that's Wil Wheaton, a 52 year-old, part of Gen X, not a Millenial.

@@Ethereum1789 im making fun of his lack of self awareness not defending nobody
Even with Gen Z and now Skibbidi Dibbiti Gen Alpha, my generation somehow manages to be the worst.
Whether you're a millennial, zoomer, boomer, etc. there will be people who will always have something negative to say about you or disaprove of your appearance. Whether i had long hair, shaggy hair, short hair combed to the side, shaved head, facial hair, no facial hair, someone has always said something negative about it at least once.
Ironicall, i pretty much agree with everything this guy is saying, but i think when guys point out the percieved flaws of the looks of other guys, it's about a desire to feel superior in some sense. The underlying logic is "I don't look like you, someone i perceive as lesser than based off of physical characteristics, some which you have no control over, therefore i am better than you." You see tall men (not all) for example have this mentality towards shorter men and will down play the accomplishments of a shorter man. "Yeah, well, at least I'm tall, brah." I think this mindset stems from a secret insecurity and/or the desire to bring other men down as a low hanging ego boost because most people don't feel good about themselves unless they can compare others as lesser than them. Of course if there is a secret or subconscious insecurity from men like this, it's not like they'd ever admit it if they're aware of it as they fear it would make them look weak and that's the last thing a man wants to be perceived as, man's greatest fear, so they have to play the condescending Andrew Tate act to hide their insecurity, just like the Wizard of Oz being a little old man hiding behind this big, threatening Zordan-like projection, so who's really being insencere here? That's why often when we point a finger at someone, we have three pointing back and the advice and criticisms we have of others are often the advice and criticisms we need to apply to ourselves, but that requires introspection, self awareness and honesty with the self.
"You can please some people some of the time, but you can't please all people all the time." -Abraham Lincoln
So just be yourself because no matter what you do or look like, someone is gonna hate on you or make commentary. You can cure frickin' cancer and someone somewhere for some reason will criticize you for it. It is what it is. Best you can do is accept this is how the world and people are like.

me when i yap about something random when being assigned a 1 hour essay
I also didn't understand the point. He at least went to talk to millennials about why they dress like that? I'll at least have the patience to explain the millennial generation is the generation of academic theory. We didn't have time to do dances on Tik Tok or worry about aesthetic clothes. because the generation before us got it into our heads that we should be office slaves
Bro a hater frfr on god
While it is cringe, it isn't as nearly as cringe as gen Z's obsession with looksmaxxing or "escaping the matrix and becoming rich" wanna be's. What's up with this narcissism culture, it's always about looks/money, other people admiring you for simply existing, mogging and showing how much better you have it. Guys really get rejected by a girl once and make it their whole personality how the world only cares about looks and how unfair it is and their life goal is to get as much laid as possible, by going on a lone sigma male villain arc and then wonder why they have no friends or genuine connections. Don't get me started on "mogging", just pure antisocial behaviour. People used to sacrifice themselves for the greater good of their communities, for other people but now the only thing that matters to them is "ME". "I have to mog and be better than others!", "I have to be as rich as possible to look down on brokies!", "I have to have the highest body count to show how much of a Chad I am!" Muh EGO and entitledness to have everything in the world. Same with self-improvement and hustling. Also who tf cares about Chico or Sean O'pry? Why do people worship them like Gods? What noble things have they done, other than simply being born lucky?
I don't see how escaping the jewish system/matrix and improving yourself is a bad thing. Maybe some are a bit too autistic about it but it's generaly a good thing.
@@beastvicious8672 Escaping the matrix by diving straight in the rat race and making money sole purpose of your life is ironic. Self improvement is mostly alright but kinda meaningless, cold showers, meditation and reading books are just some good habits, they won't change your life or cure social anxiety if you have one for example.
@@slot0000 There's several ways to escape the matrix. Don't consume what they want you to. Meaning left-wing garbage and bad diet. Then earn money and support things that goes against the system. Have a wife and kids, set an example. Don't be afraid to say jews run the government. Becouse if people aren't aware of who's doing it then nothing will change.
Cold showers increase will power. Getting you used to do things you don't want to. Meditation i don't really know, maybe good if you're really stressed. Reading tends to make you smarter and increase your vocabulary. Depending on what you read of course.
@@slot0000 aaaand my comment was censored. If that doesn't prove that fighting "the matrix" is important then idk what does. Eventually it's gonna be you and they wont stop at just censorship.
@@beastvicious8672 The whole "matrix" thing is mostly fearmongering by Andrew Tate to manipulate you to buy his course and "escape the matrix". His business is literally to make people insecure over his lifestyle and then sell it.
I feel like it's mostly procrastination on doing the hard things that actually matter. Things like talking about how bad the matrix is, learning from courses, going on a lone wolf grindset are easy.
Working in an industry to get a better understanding of the market and the solutions it needs, networking, achieving results, that's hard.
Please, don't use the millennial tag. Just call them hipsters.
As a Gen-Xer.....we're not boomers. Those are our parents....the ones born in the baby boom. We are the kids who grew up in the 70s and 80s, were latch key kids, grew our hair long or in mullets...without the irony. And we were never home, always out playing, climbing trees, riding bikes, exploring the local woods, swimming at the local pool or lake and terrorizing the neighborhood.
Your generation practically invented sarcasm.
You had people like Darlene Conner, Angela Chase, Jeanine Garofalo, and Daria.
Y’all were the poster children for jaded disaffected youth.
What do you mean “without the irony”? Our generation got it from you guys.
49 year old here, we often get described as boomers solely because we are masculine and don’t lean left.
Your Generation Are as delusional as boomers
@@mechanesthesia Not when we were kids, there was no awareness of being ironic. I was referencing growing up with our hair styles and apparel choices. I'm assuming you're either a Millenial or Gen Z...and the people you referenced weren't in my circle of influencers I was too busy having fun and those characters/ actors were written by, for the most part .....boomers! ......learn to read and then interpret. But wait, you can't.....so kid, go climb a tree or ride a bike. ....sarcasm......😎..you're too self aware! Lol!
Oh, one last thing. We didn't practically invent sarcasm.....that's imbued in American culture. Go watch any cinema from the 30s, 40s etc. The dialog is just brimming with it. Characters constantly chide and mock each other....it's American as apple pie and a kick in the nuts.
This video has given me a lot to think about for myself. Especially the standing up for others part.
holy, you are so spot on
2:07 Nah it is. Having a beard is awesome and non-ironic for this Millenial. 🤷♂️
this video is unrelatable. Ur "millennials" look doesnt match minds and that's clearly because we hang around different people/groups. A video like this is impossible to do.
For example: My view of a "millennial" is someone who grew up in the trend of wearing over-grown jeans, gigantic t-shirts and listening to early 2000s raps with big headphones on their heads........and now they look like they still wanna do that but with just sleeker clothing with todays tech.
Im a very confident millennials are not "lookmaxxing" like "Gen z" and I dont even think "Gen Z" people started these "lookmaxxing, brain rot, whatever modern trends" .......i think it was the younger gen under gen Z who started that.
Gen Z are just the gen that grew up with the tech that was already their but not fully and they are the same gen that experience a little bit of the 90s culture and there the same generation that literally cant afford anything because boomer sellers are making everything expensive and unaffordable and those same boomers opened a can of worms in the gov and now our society has been posined with werido stuff eversince and it just got worse and worse.
This video made no sense to me, it felt more like an opinion piece rather than anything else.
2:12 or they just simply want to grow a beard because they don't wanna have to shave it off or like how their face looks
WE'RE TIRED LOL! ALL THESE "ONCE IN A LIFETIME" EVENTS WE BEEN TROUGH IS TOUGH ON THE PSYCHE
Good video! As a millennial myself I’ll walk ya through the beard thing. In the early 2000’s everyone was clean shaven and had very thin eyebrows. Hair on the face was very out of style. Then the film ‘300’ came out in 2006, about ripped Spartans with six pack abs and beards fighting their enemies. The film was a big hit and some guys started growing out beards. Then in 2010 the Portland “hipster” look came in style. Which was full beard and flannel like how a lumberjack looks. But a lot of guys can’t grow full thick beards but just let them go anyways. That’s the history as I remember regarding millennials and beards.
You’re right and if time frame really add’s up Gen X was the one who started that shit..
Im a older millennial and i cant stand the insincerity of my generation. But grew up with Gen X siblings
Talks about the sincerity of boomers while using a gen x aesthetic.
Yeah sure, i guess you are right just because
I’m a MILLENNIAL and I don’t look like that!.!.
As a younger millennial , this is false. I've seen and know a lot of zoomers (gen z) who look old 🤷♀️
...'Allergic to the idea of sincerity ' 😂 wtf is that
Always need to be ironic or witty, can never actually be serious about anything.
Video went over your head
@@Badookum your name
@@zoren1900 Random name generator.
Here's why we have beards:
Our fathers were all clean shaven, because that was in the style at the time (and professional work culture). Because clean shaven was what "old people" did, beards became cool (btw less shaving = good for face). Now your generation is looking at ours going "you look stupid with facial hair" and then go clean shaven.
If you look at trends, fashion circles back around. Something is cool, then old people ruin it and it's not cool, then 30 years later it's cool again.
They all have the same political opinnon on top of that, and are probably atheist most of the time. i think that is a very important thing that you have not mentioned
I'm an atheist but I'm nothing like those guys 😂😂😂
Believe in Jesus brother ✝️✝️✝️
@@tonethalegit My guy. You look like them lol
@@sdasdgfdgd2931 but they got the mullet cut. Mines is just curly and long. Plus I'm not a skinny twink I actually workout
@@tonethalegit I can see that your not skinny bro lol
It’s called not having enough time to shave because we’re not in our 20’s with all this free time
Keeping generations hate alive right?
Trust me, Millennials have been hating on Zoomers for years now.
So when soyllenials do it it's ok? Noted.
I think a lot of this generational stuff has more to do with their age than the generation. Millennials doing something to me seems more about "being a 30 something year old in 2024" than about "being a millennial". Same goes with gen Alpha. It's kids doing kids stuff, and if we time warped 10 years old from 1980 to the present day, it probably wouldn't take too long until they too were up to some dumb sh*t involving social media. Kids are dumb, teenagers clueless and overconfident, young adults are pretentious and insincere.
He's just describing himself except he can't grow a beard???
Sure Jan 🤣
Let's be real: you "borrowed" the video idea from ShreddedNerd
This guy feels like tom from parks and rec except if he talked like a nerd and was white. Aka talked big game yet had nothing to show for it
First I really like your essay. As a 40+ millennial, I remember when “ironic” entered the mainstream lexicon. It was by rich hipsters who were doing anything and everything to be cool. But it wasn’t genuine. It was a half assed attempt at taking the piss out of whatever they were talking about. Overtime, it turned into brands and consumerism. The irony is, “ironic” was not even being used properly. We are like parrots with a dictionary. Children in the family wardrobe. No sense of identity or feet to plant on the ground.
I really think you nailed the insincerity. If I might add, shallow and not genuine.
Good job on the essay young man.
"I read personal traits into your looks, and am disappointed if you not follow the patterns I expect from you. No please listen to me as I drag the character of people through the mud based on their looks, so that you may feel validated and thaught to hold them in contempt."
I'm a Millenial dude (36) and I've been complaining about this for forever. But I think it's a post-internet thing. Gen Z calls anyone sincere "cringe" just like Millenials ostracized anyone who has a genuine passion or belief. Gen X were proudly nihilistic and poked fun of all beliefs as "naive".
The writing in popular media has been really bad since Millenials hit the scene though. Unfortunately thats the influence we will be remembered for.
Sounds like you've just discovered "hipsters". A subset of millennials, not even the majority. This is nothing, new, we've been criticizing these people forever at this point. Are you new to the internet?
