    I actually loved the fact you're laying out likely possibilities for the future generations. Although it may not be all true, it's good having an idea where we're heading
  • @Japinoyboi2004
    I'm a Gen Z person (Born: 2004). Even if I belong to a new generation, I still have the taste of having an obsession with Classical music and old cartoons.
  • @wolfkitty42
    I love how they’re judging generation alpha despite it being mostly toddlers... Edit: No idea wtf is going on in the replies Edit 2: ok at this point i dont feel like reading the replies so uh honestly im even more confused than earlier Edit 3: Too many replies to read sob
  • There was the Lost Generation - born from 1883 to 1900 - which is before Greatest generation.
  • @PlasmaMongoose
    Gen-Alpha don't have that much say about what hairstyles they want as they are still all babies and kids.

    My granny (great grandma) is 95 and is two weeks older than queen Elizabeth! She still does everything on her own, (aka she can walk, drive, cook, etc) but my grandma lives with her just in case- <3 Edit: Rip Queen Elizabeth,, the world just doesn’t feel the same. 9/8/2022

    The fact that SpongeBob square pants was not even made in the millennials 💀
  • @justink5000
    I love how they say "these events TOOK place" and then say "2038-2049"
  • Gen X here wasn’t feeling the choice of cartoons. We had He-man, She-Ra, GI Joe, Transformers, Dungeons and dragons, Care Bears, Strawberry Shortcake, Rainbow Brite, The Smurfs etc…
  • As a 2012 Gen Z, (some people beg to differ) I even cry at the nostalgic games and memories that I have experienced, I miss it, I would do anything to go back for 1 day ;(
