There is an ongoing (and it seems like a never-ending) discussion between the millennial generation kids and baby boomers. While the older folks are trying to prove that us young people are ruining the economy and basically the entire world, we millennials keep fighting back by blaming baby boomers for any minor inconvenience we stumble upon during the difficult period of growing up. Basically, both generations blame each other for everything that is wrong in this world, and we're not sure if there's any way to stop them. And while this fight about generation differences keeps evolving, a new, fresher and younger generation is slowly growing up only to find a new way to ruin the world that we live in. The so-called 'generation z' or 'Genz' are people that were born from the mid-1990s to mid-2000s. And even though the age difference between Genz and the millennial age might be small, there are some things that millennials grew up with that Gen z kids have no clue about. Bored Panda compiled a list of all the random things that the younger kids from different generation don't understand, and before you check it out, be careful, it might make you feel extremely old.

    LOL! Yea. Sometimes the crowd is just a little too young for me. Their drinking the cheapest thing they can to get messed up. I'm sipping my one drink made with titos so I can get up on time the next day and get stuff done.

    Here in Finland we have Radio Nostalgia. Which is a channel that mostly plays songs from 1990's and 1980's. That is one of my favourite radio channels and I feel extremely old when I listen it. For me a radio channel called 'Radio Nostalgia' should play 1960's songs or older...

    I remember when I used to be very jealous because some people had LightScribe CD-Rs. I just had a marker scribbles on my CD-Rs.

    And then the DJ speaks over your favourite part and changes the song before the end of the current one. ♥

    The same way we burned songs onto vynil records, you need a very high powered magnifiyng glass, and a fine point needle. Then you scribe the music into the material. There's no erasing it once scribed, so if you make a mistake, you have to throw the disc out and start again. Sometimes it took 20 or 30 goes to get one right.

    Take a CD, any one will do. Place a thin layer of toothpaste on it and let it dry, use hair dryer if impatient. Wipe the CD off. It will be blank. Take a felt-tip pen and carefully, in small letters, write the lyrics of the songs you want on there, starting at the outside of the CD. After that dries, mix Listerine and baking soda into a paste and put a thin layer on the newly-recorded CD. Let dry. Do not use a hair dryer this time. After it's all hard, gently remove the Listerine paste. Throw it in the CD player and you're golden.

    You actually burned the CD, I've burned about 10 CDs. The said factor is that you can't erase or add files to CD's, DVD's and CD/DVD - R when done burning. BUT! There was something called DVD-RAM that acted like a flash drive

    You can erase (and burn again) CDs/ DVDs that are marked as RW. Though I can't say I've bothered burning anything in a while. Flash drives and later clouds replaced discs.

    I always thought burning a CD would mess it up, and wandered why anyone would ever want that.

    Bet whatever you want that she knows pretty well Justin Timberlake still. Boy bands are merely a launchpad for artists, if they are good enough to continue. East 17 were way better anyway...lol

    I loved the Mummy movie as a kid. And there was this other one where the devil was a hot woman and was trying to get Fraser's soul, it was a funny movie.

    Explain it like this: Imagine that every time an app crashed, you would have to turn off your phone, blow into it, then restart. Also imagine that when you downloaded an app, it was actually finished, and didn't require a patch twice a week to fix all of the bugs and add unnecessary updates.
