"Okay, Boomer." If you haven’t heard the catch-all put-down millennials and Gen Z use to condescendingly burn baby boomers who made their lives much worse - we don't know where you've been. It got so out of hand at one point that many employers were afraid that it might disrupt the work environment.
Never mind, then, because in a natural course of events, with the youngest millennial being in their late 20s, Gen Z is already plotting how the meme will be passed on to the avocado toast generation. "It’s the year 2050 and the term 'ok, millennial' is trending. What are the reasons the young generation is using it?" one user pondered in the Ask Reddit community. From vintage cartoon jokes to early Internet days, it's pretty clear that millennials should start warming up to the idea that redemption day is coming.

Us having to explain that we got up for school 5am and would have to wait in the cold for a sh**ty bus.

Millennials, while solemnly swearing that they are not going to repeat the mistakes of Boomers and Gen X, they will make them anyway.
Millennials will always complain about the games they play, just like they did with Minecraft and do with Fortnite even this early.
Millennials will complain about them for using VR/AR goggles all the time.
Millennials will think it's not fair for everyone to get Universal Basic Income after the automation revolution since they had to go to college yet they still hardly got any job.
Millennials will look down on the next generation because they can't hand write since pencils and pens ale long obsolete.

Milennials will boast about fighting a revolution against the "Baby Boomers" which reference would have no relevance to future generations which will blame millennials for all inflation, debt, and global warming.

We will still be meme addicted but will be still using the memes that should have been lost and forgotten.
“Tide comes in, tide goes out, you can’t explain that!”
“You thought this meme was dead? NOOOOPE CHUCK TESTA!!!”
No one will get it and everyone will be rolling their eyes at us.

Our version of "boomer hates his wife" cartoons will be "millennial wants to die" memes.

Polluting. We think we're doing well, but there's still heaps of habits that have to be improved and I expect future generations will resent us for being backwards. "Why can't we get oranges in the dead of winter anymore? Stupid youngsters f*cking up my healthy balanced diet."
"... Ok millenial."

It became unethical to harm insects. Animal rights activists protesting against killing cockroaches and mosquitos. Those who disagree (us) get called animal abusers, but we're too old for this s**t and at that point just kinda waiting for life to end realizing that something similar will happen to them as well when they're old.

I imagine its only.a matter of time before body modification (via advanced prosthetics / implants / etc) and / or widespread use of genetic modification. Undoubtedly, many members of the millenial generation will see this as unnatural and will probably oppose it.

My fear is that we will have failed to keep the planet hospitable and reverse the effects of mass debt/poverty. That the mistakes of our previous generations will be repeated.
