Being a millennial is hard. Older generations accuse you of killing everything they love and wasting your money on avocado toast, and Gen Z roasts you constantly.
Unfortunately, however, Gen Z is often the same. We millennials love “Harry Potter” a little too much, and we’re a little too fond of words like “adulting” and “doggo.”
TikTok user htmljones evoked a much more subtle difference between Gen Z and millennials, though – the way they hold their phones when recording a video.
He demonstrated that members of Gen Z are casual and talk to the camera when talking to a friend. It is very natural.
Millennials, however, hold the phone above their heads, smile with their eyes wide and speak sarcastically.
It’s clear he’s posting the older generation … but he’s right, at least in the opinion of tons of commentators.
“Gen Z is always comfortable with a camera phone. Millennials had to become comfortable, it seems. Boomers never knew how to take care of it (2 inches away from the nose), ‘wrote one user.
“They always look something unhinged,” said another.
Millennials also could not argue with his assessment.
“I will not apologize for knowing my angles at my age,” said one user.
“I feel very attacked,” wrote another.
