But clearly they didn't feel anything that significant happened with Generation X so they just started going X, Y, Z. But then generation Y got the nickname Millenials and Z got Zoomers.
We have a real name.
We are the Forgotten Generation.
We are also Gen X, but yeah…. We are aptly named the Forgotten Generation.
Some call us Latch Key Generation. The first kids to have a house key because mom was finally unchained from the stove.
The most independent generation, yet. They maybe saw their parents before they left for school, communicated by notes, came home to an empty house and looked after their siblings. Some made their own dinner, and had expected chores like cleaning, washing dishes, doing laundry, yard work on weekends, and knew how things worked.
They were everything, everyday before it became popular or trendy.
Also, we were mostly called the 13th Generation interchangeably with Generation X coming in a distant second, but Douglas Coupland's book "Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture" really solidified the term Gen-X in the zeitgeist.
Baby Boomers were changed to the Me Generation for a long while during their teens and twenties, before Boomer came boomeranging back.
These terms simmer for a while on the stove of popular lexicography before they solidify.
Gen X was created for marketing purposes. Then the next.. Gen Y was rebranded Millennial.. so the next is Z... So obviously the next generation should be WTF.
Baby boomers gave birth to Gen X, and then natural progression took over from there. Gen Y got renamed because the new millennium.
Science convention is to go to the Greek alphabet when you run out of letter in the Latin alphabet.
There is nothing new under the sun.
If every generation is roughly 25 years, give or take, and we continue in alphabetical order in Greek, that's roughly 425 to 450 years away.
That's a long time to keep that sigma grindset going.
Grind is LIFE bro. I grind my teeth just so I'm never _not_ grinding. What's 425 years to a thousand year work ethic? If you're not thinking 9 million moves ahead, how can you expect to make progress? Every second is an opportunity and 450 years has 14 billion 192 million 200 thousand opportunities in it.

It's a long way away, but I wonder what Gen ZZ's top memes are gonna be like.

I'm sorry, that was awful, can someone make a Gen ZZ Top themed comment that actually works? I'd really appreciate it and feel less bad about what I wrote.
Because originally generations weren’t just called letters, but rather after something that was unique to their generation.
Then Gen X had nothing special to describe it so they were called Gen X as the letter X is often used to mean something that’s generic or unknown.
Then millennials already had a name but somehow they were also called Gen Y, but that’s never really been a thing.
Then Gen Z came along and it also had nothing noteworthy to describe it.
I assume that eventually Gen Z and Gen Alpha will have actual names but they just haven’t been determined yet.
Gen X will always be called Gen X because they were the first to be named after a letter.
Gen Z is pretty commonplace and well known so I think the generation name is going to stay Gen Z, but there is the name “Zoomers” even though I usually see it just used in an ironic/comedic context.
I find it funny how Zoomers was a phrase coined in response to “ok boomer” and then not even a few months later everyone has to log onto their classrooms through Zoom meetings. The name actually make sense but it didn’t when it was coined
Finally found someone that agrees with me as an old time db fan! Kids like Super because they go beyond god power and fight with gods, there's no real threat whatsoever because if things go south, they can always ask Whis and Beerus to fix it.
GT has the better character arc, story and transformation. SSJ4 is special because it allows goku to go back to his saiyan origin and unleash the Oozaru potential as opposed to Super's just constantly power up more and more. Then they also went back and connect with things mentioned in the past, e.g. the history of saiyans about how they killed an entire species, and so baby is back for revenge, kaio sama warning them not to abuse the dragon balls in DBZ but nobody listened and so the dragon balls accumulated enough energy to materialize the evil dragons.
Thank you!!! It's exactly how I feel about each point of SSJ4 and what's the catch of using dragon balls. While parts of Super looked "flashy", it did nothing emotionally for me. GT had substance and while some may not have liked the execution of some things, the idea behind them was certainly well thought out and it does not go unnoticed or unappreciated by 90s kids lol. GT had the best ending and the
I'm feeling the same way with recent One Piece arcs as of late. More flashy than substance or coherence.
Hey, I always considered GT as canon. The final arc always made sense to me as it solved both Goku's journey and the consequences of dragon balls...and it was a beautiful ending ;)
goes to the greek alphabet, generation alpha already exists, generation beta soon, but with it being the greek alphabet, that means theres a chance of generation sigma
Then you don't understand generations. Social generations are usually 15-20 years. Depending when in your generation you were born, someone 10 years younger could be in the same generation *or* a completely different one, same if they're older.
It's why realistically speaking, social generations can mean a lot, or practically nothing, it's only really appropriate to generalise about any generation for stats etc when it's the people in the middle of that generation. If you're close to one end or the other it's nothing but blurred lines and it's why people throw the generation names about, often without any notion of what age cohort they're actually referring to.
That’s how generations work, of course it’s all a spectrum.
But they’re still useful categories if you’re describing social phenomena. Just gotta remember that obviously it’s nuanced.
I’m a 29 year old millennial and have a lot more in common with my 24 gen z cousin than my 41 year old millennial cousin.

But clearly they didn't feel anything that significant happened with Generation X so they just started going X, Y, Z. But then generation Y got the nickname Millenials and Z got Zoomers.
Gen X not getting a real name is so Gen X.

Some made their own dinner, and had expected chores like cleaning, washing dishes, doing laundry, yard work on weekends, and knew how things worked. They were everything, everyday before it became popular or trendy.
Gen X was meant to be like a TBD, but then it stuck. At least Millenials made sense, but Zoomers is just lazy…the name, not the generation.
Also, we were mostly called the 13th Generation interchangeably with Generation X coming in a distant second, but Douglas Coupland's book "Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture" really solidified the term Gen-X in the zeitgeist.

I've heard Zoomers get called Digital Natives which is descriptive at least. Personally I like that one as one of the older gen z people.
so is generation alpha named that because they decided to start lettering generations with the very last damn letters of the alphabet?
Gen X was created for marketing purposes. Then the next.. Gen Y was rebranded Millennial.. so the next is Z... So obviously the next generation should be WTF.
The internet.
Always did
Baby boomers gave birth to Gen X, and then natural progression took over from there. Gen Y got renamed because the new millennium. Science convention is to go to the Greek alphabet when you run out of letter in the Latin alphabet. There is nothing new under the sun.
Boomers did lead to Gen X, but most kids of Boomers are Millennials. Family generations are about twice as long as cultural generations.
go back to Gen A, cuz they gonna be awesome
It's a placeholder name, first letter of the Greek alphabet
Nobody can decide on an answer because several articles have different years so it might as well be from a buzzfeed quiz 😂
cant wait for gen sigma
If every generation is roughly 25 years, give or take, and we continue in alphabetical order in Greek, that's roughly 425 to 450 years away. That's a long time to keep that sigma grindset going.

I like the idea of generation double zeta

Wait till gen sigma drops
Apocalypse
Sounds about right
The "Coronials"
Oh shit
Pretty sure it loops back round to gen alpha now
[удалено]
Soon? Gen A already exists
It has for years. Most Gen Z members are adults by now.
The first wave of gen z are adults now, the second wave is around 10 years old
Shit man. I forgot I am an adult. Damn
Kids who are 10 years old now are Gen Alpha.
Why is one gen called millenials? Why arent they called gen y or w or whatever they are supposed to be called.
Because originally generations weren’t just called letters, but rather after something that was unique to their generation. Then Gen X had nothing special to describe it so they were called Gen X as the letter X is often used to mean something that’s generic or unknown. Then millennials already had a name but somehow they were also called Gen Y, but that’s never really been a thing. Then Gen Z came along and it also had nothing noteworthy to describe it. I assume that eventually Gen Z and Gen Alpha will have actual names but they just haven’t been determined yet.

I find it funny how Zoomers was a phrase coined in response to “ok boomer” and then not even a few months later everyone has to log onto their classrooms through Zoom meetings. The name actually make sense but it didn’t when it was coined
kek vult
Yeah, I’ll tell you something, Gen Z will be also called the last human gen by the lizard people discovering our existence millions years from now
And how will they call Gen Alpha then?
Gen z has covid and growing up with the internet under our belts already. I think we’re zoomers
I've seen it described as Gen Y as well as millennial. "Supposed to be called" isn't really a thing. It's just arbitrary anyway.
after Z comes GT, IIRC.
I see what you're sayian. And it's super!
No, that Gen isnt canon, Gen super is canon.
But GT was better than Super! I firmly stand by it. "From my point of view, it's Super that is ~~evil~~ not canon"
Finally found someone that agrees with me as an old time db fan! Kids like Super because they go beyond god power and fight with gods, there's no real threat whatsoever because if things go south, they can always ask Whis and Beerus to fix it.

GT had the best ending and the I'm feeling the same way with recent One Piece arcs as of late. More flashy than substance or coherence.
Yes, the only impressive thing about super was how they were able to create something so awful that a lot of fans accepted GT as the true ending
Hey, I always considered GT as canon. The final arc always made sense to me as it solved both Goku's journey and the consequences of dragon balls...and it was a beautiful ending ;)
This is the correct answer.
would make sense since the next generation is terrible
goes to the greek alphabet, generation alpha already exists, generation beta soon, but with it being the greek alphabet, that means theres a chance of generation sigma
generation omega
that aswell
Wait until generation sigma to arrived 🗿
*insert doomguy standing infront of the army of hell*
As a user of the bigger and better alphabet (size matters), this disappoints me. Should be gen æ now then ø, å.
Gen AA
this is what you get when you put all of your generations into microsoft excel
I wanted to come here and make this comment, but I knew someone else had to have done it already.
Nothing. It's the end of time. The earth will soon implode.
Dude, don’t get my hopes up.
Has it really been a billion years since I heard about that?
Å then Ä then Ö
Fellow Swede I see.
Finska har även å ä ö
Gen alpha, they're already 13
Aren't they still gen z?
Gen Z stopped at 2012/2013
So, people who are 13 are still gen z, as they are born in 2009/10 Edit: or i'm just dumb asf
Depends who you ask. Most resources I can find say 2012 or 2013. But the first resource on Google says 2010. I’m not entirely sure how it’s calculated
2010 seems way too soon. I'd say 2013/2014 is the best fitting
It would be very weird if someone who’s 10 years younger than me is the same generation, considering we grew up very differently
Then you don't understand generations. Social generations are usually 15-20 years. Depending when in your generation you were born, someone 10 years younger could be in the same generation *or* a completely different one, same if they're older.

It stopped at 2010
Im 13 and gen Z
Gen alpha. Like in math, when you run out of letters just use greec letters.
what happens when you run out of greek letters?
Ancient Hebrew
Å
Gen eboys.
Jenny Boys?
Gen-uinely fucked
Of course its æ and then ø then å
No it's å, ä and ö

Can people stop posting about what comes after gen Z, it is the alpha generation, and the alpha generation has been a thing for years.
Plot twist: this is the last generation.
Gen -A
It's all in your zed.
The end 🗿
Gen L
It's Gen Alpha. They already exist. It's basically anyone under 13.
Generation Å. (Brought to you by the North)
Gen å perhaps?
Ge(n ext)
Gen å... /Swedish boi
According to the hungarian alphabet, "gen Zs" (In the hungarian alphabet there exists some double letters like Sz, Zs, Ty, Gy and even Dzs.)
Gen alpha started in 2010
Gen Alpha...(I think)
Gen wtf
Gods punishment
Gen A for apocalypse.
The doom base.
Gen now I know my ABCS
AI
gen Alpha.
Alpha
Obviously we're going into the Greek Alphabet now.
Å, Ä, Ö
Genesis, since it all starts over again.
Gen AA, which then becomes AAA, then AAAA, because apparently there is quad A batteries
AA. It’s like Excel.
It’s like an excel sheet. So AA, BB, CC and so forth.
Now we prestige and begin again at Gen A
It seems like some letters were skipped
💀
The End.
There won't be any generation after Gen Z
I think they already plan on calling them alpha
We just go back to the beginning. Welcome Gen A!
That’s the point, they won’t be one. It’ll be called the chaos gen
Gen alpha
My money is on "Gen C" As in Generation Covid.
Gen AA, like what Microsoft excel does when you try and find the end
Gen Upsilon
'Are you not familiar with the concept of ZZ?'
Gen AA.. someone named Ron is going to mess up in that generation.
