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...

    Yes, some cars still have them. And I even often prefer them (especially when I'm a passenger) over the automatic ones

    I'm 16 and we had this in our old car. My grandparents' car(which is not that old, it's a red Toyota Yaris) has them too. It's a lot safer than window buttons, which get blocked if you fall into a river with the car or something like that. "Levers" are better!

    Then you'd have to avoid most cars. Though you can always buy a hammer to break the glass and a knife for the seat belts. Your engine dying and cutting off the power steering however is much more scary to me. 51KZ3l3248...SX425_.jpg 51KZ3l3248L._SX425_.jpg

    A friend of mine had an electrical fault with her car. It was running pefectly well but the electrics had a fault. The lights didn't work - including indicators and brake lights and the electric windows didn't work. Meant the car behind us was clueless that she was braking to turn off the road. We did know the hand signals as they were in the highway code but other than trying to show them out the back window we were stuck with annoying them while we got off the road.

    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.
