What is a ZOOMER?
WHY ARE WE CALLED ZOOMERS AND WHAT IS IT!
Ursprungligen skrivet av Azza ☠:
"Zoomer" is slang for "Gen Z" (Generation Z / Post-Millennials).

A person born between 1996 and 2012.

The name is a play on the term “Boomer,” which refers to members of the Baby Boomer generation, and also refers to the fast-paced upbringings Gen-Zers experience due to the simultaneous fast advantages in technology.

They pick up devices quicker, jump online into social networks, and zoom around as such in regards to a more online environment.

Stereotypes include love for Battle Royale games, such as Fortnite. Tendency to perform Floss and other dance moves, normally related/used in the game Fortnite. Playing the game Fortnite. Proposing to their crush online at a young age, but then being distracted from any relationship by the game Fortnite till of legal age or more likely well into their 30s.

A generalization of demographics to keep sheeple occupied and distracted from the real issues in this world. It's always polarization that keeps power up. Divide and conquer.
And those real issues are?
if you have to ask this question you are probably not ready for the answer. People usually tend to dismiss things that are too obvious. And in the end who am i to speak truth. Truth cannot be pulled from the metaphysical realm into the physical world, time errodes it afterall.

Isn't drug discussion supposed to be against the rules?

Generation Z, or Gen Z for short, is the demographic cohort after the Millennials. Demographers and researchers typically use the mid- to late-1990s as starting birth years, while consensus has not been reached on the ending birth years. Members of Generation Z have used digital technology since a young age and are comfortable with the Internet and social media.

Millennials, also known as Generation Y (or simply Gen Y), are the demographic cohort following Generation X and preceding Generation Z. Researchers and popular media use the early 1980s as starting birth years and the mid-1990s to early 2000s as ending birth years, with 1981 to 1996 a widely accepted definition. Millennials are sometimes referred to as "echo boomers" due to a major surge in birth rates in the 1980s and 1990s, and because millennials are often the children of the baby boomers. The characteristics of millennials vary by region and by individual, and the group experiences a variety of social and economic conditions, but they are generally marked by their coming of age in the Information Age, and are comfortable in their usage of digital technologies and social media.

I've always been taught that Millennials are from 1980s to 1999, and Generation Z started at 2000+ and according to the wikipedia I could be both Millennial or Gen Z since I am born in 1999 so it's pretty confusing when both of their years overlap the same ♥♥♥♥... you'll literally get different answers from different sites

But as it says I'm a child of a Boomer so I'm a millennial(born 1999)

What? Gen Z has no ending year yet lol so how is it 1996 to 2012? Also Millennial is also from 1980s to 2000s so it's confusing when Genz and Millennials years overlap

you're just a zoomer tho
Yeah, but on the early end of the zoomers, so I don't have the full zoomer experience.
Apparently according to the wikipedia a few factors determine if you're a millennial or zoomer, since both definitions on the starting years and ending years overlap... gen Z doesn't have an ending year yet... but millennials are typically from 1980s to 1996 BUT it also says they're children of the boomers so pretty much if you're like me born in 1999 or 2000 you kinda just get to pick which one you are since you can be either lol.. and I choose millennial since zoomers are annoying, but don't you remember before this whole zoomer meme it was bad to be a millennial? BUT now it's bad to be a boomer or zoomer

I'd say it's bad to get caught up in the artificial minutiae. It's only going to make life harder
You're 100% correct lol, but I just don't like when people post answers from 50 different sites and they're all saying something different lol
