" My finger physically can not do the Gen Z nub . "
As an older Gen Z’er myself, sometimes it can be hard to spot a millennial because we grew up with a lot of the same music, TV shows, movies, and lingo.
But, I recently learned six subtle ways to identify if someone is a Gen Z’er or millennial from TikToker Ludny Jean, also known as@ludknee. She’s received over 5.1 million views on her recentvideotitled: “Testing mybest friendto see if she’s millennial or Gen Z.”
So, I decided to ask theBuzzFeed Communityhow accurate they thought these Gen Z and millennial identifiers were. So, let’s get into the generational battle:
#1: How do millennials vs. Gen Z’ers mimic answering the phone?
Do they use their whole hand to replicate the phone?
Or, do they use two fingers as the “pretend” phone?
#2: How do millennials vs. Gen Z’ers mimic hanging up the phone?
Do they move the phone from their ear and place it directly down like a landline?
Or do they tap the end-call button on the phone screen?
#3: How do millennials vs. Gen Z’ers mimic rolling down a window?
Do they hold an imaginary lever and move their arm in a circular motion?
Or do they press and hold a button?
#4: How do millennials vs. Gen Z’ers make a heart with their hands?
Do they only use four fingers?
Or do they use all of their fingers?
#5: How do Gen Z’ers vs. millennials mimic taking a photo?
Do they turn their imaginary phone horizontally?
Or do they keep their imaginary phone vertical?
#6: What style of jeans do millennials and Gen Z’ers often wear?
Do they wear skinny jeans?
Or do they wear ripped mom jeans?
