Speaking as a Millennial, I think the peak era of this was during the flip-phone era, where you'd just slam the cell phone shut in a fit of rage with one hand: so concise, so chilling & yet so elegant!
I think it's interesting how I grew up with all of the "new" technology, but I still mime like I'm using the old ways (except the window, I do something completely different). Even our landline phone was a more flat design, but we did have flip phones too. Clapping those shut was always satisfying, whether it was a happy hang up or an angry one.
I think the older expressions will always tend to be relevant because they express what you mean more clearly. Like I’ve never been one to wear a watch ever but if I happen to have to ask the time with a gesture I will point to my wrist
Right like imagine everything pointing to an iPhone it just wouldn’t make sense. If the kid pretended to take a picture on an iPhone and the guy wasn’t there pretending to use a camera I’d have no idea what the kid was doing
I'm gen Z, on the younger end of the generation. I use the millennial hand gestures because I like to play charades a lot and it's the only good way to show these things
This is so cool to see the difference between manual vs automated things. Newer versions are simpler and therefore more user friendly but older versions are nostalgic, such as rolling down the car window.
@Chloeisntfunny I think they are doing this on purpose. Forcing generations into a mold. I am not saying these young people aren't actually like this but not everybody.

@@luci-ana I do think that probs depends on what year someone was born and maybe also the country? I'm an older gen z from 1999 and definitely grew seeing tech become what it is now and saw like the rise of smartphones etc. I feel like in many ways I relate more to millenials also bc that was who I grew up watching either on tv or like youtube etc. almost all the people I used to watch and still watch are millennials and I can relate to their experiences bc those are similar to my own more than someone who has only ever seen smartphones or never burned a cd or dvd
This is really cool to see. It makes me wonder what these things are going to look like several years from now when our generation is considered old fashioned ❤
As genZ I'm horrified of gen alpha, i can't imagine making the phone sign, camera sign and car window rolling like that 😭😭 Edit: that's the most likes I've ever gotten tx yall

People don’t realize that the oldest Gen Alpha is literally highschool freshman, they need to stop bullying them when they’re basically an add on of Gen Z

What? There's nothing wrong with that. It's just a more updated version. It's not like it's rotting kids' minds or anything. It's just not what your boomer brain is used to.
How do you stereotype people? Men (ah yes because they have to be males don't they): I don't. Kid (why is this one in singular instead of plural) (also, these are people you have never interacted with in real life): OH Gen Alpha bad, Gen Z good, Millennial Good.
@@stupiditiusmaximus What are you on? Are you stupid? You're reading way into it, the og comment isn't stereotyping at all. They're literally just describing what was shown in the video. Did you even watch it?
Honestly the gestures you use also reflect on where you are from. Less developed countries dont have dishwasher or have the new cars where you just hold the button. I am late gen z and i am from a 3rd world country and we still had cyber cafes and DVDs in like 2014.
I'm pretty sure DVDs were considered completely normal even in first world countries in 2014 and a few years after that. Even now, if I have something on DVD, I'll use that over streaming
@@younscrafter7372 no DVDs were still used around 2014 on western countries but they were slowly decreasing in use however from where I was from, DVDs were at their peak around 2014-15. Also a lot of people even in 2016 from where I was used 2g phones. Even I had a Nokia
As an early zoomer from 1998 i relate to the left guy. I think right kid impressions are super new and the majority of gen z do that in the old manner. And more than that i think old impressions are not just linked to the time. Now it's like a established normal way to show it cayse you can understand it much clearer. I think alpha kids will change the way they shiws things like photo or phone later.
Yeah they did this, because we are used to it. Well … we were used to it. Now it’s not needed anymore and will probably be gone in a few generations of phones.
@@leoniagara3134 I don't think so. It's actually very practical when you are trying to take a picture from an angel where you can't reach the display button while holding the phone. So I often use the buttons instead.
Electric mixers have been a common western kitchen gadget for decades. Same with dishwashers (though that was is a little more recent). The analog tasks haven’t gone away, either. Those two felt coached.
The point isn't whether they've been around. Its to show they are so far removed from the "classic actions" we are receptive to, to the point the execution of the action has actually evolved
@@bellebradlington5924 I have always had a smartphone. Used an old phone maybe twice in my life. Still do the sign of the millennial. It's not being remote, it's just an accepted body language 🤷♀️
@@bellebradlington5924 [insert Captain Obvious gif here] I am going to encourage you to reread my original comment. The fact that you thought I needed you or anyone else to clarify so that I could understand that the tools utilized to carry out specific tasks have changed over time is baffling to me. I *disagree* that commonly accepted gestures representing *some* tasks have changed significantly, especially considering these are learned behaviors typically passed on by the adults in a child's life. You got any other sterling observations for me? Wanna tell me that the sky is blue and water is wet?
They are showing how times have changed, I know dishwashers always been round for decades but guess what they where for the rich and not common place. I live in what you call poverty , so even though I'm young I still very old school too
Its really cool how things change! I'm sad most people in the comments are just hating on the gen alpha kid bc its different. Nothing wrong with what he did, just did how he knows!
This proves nothing but that kid's parents and grandparents worked hard to give this generation a better life. And when they said better they just wanted less effort. So they made everything automated and i love that. Its wholesome not bad at all. We want our decendents to have a good life. And automated life is a good life.
What that time changes? Go through history especially the last hundred, shit changes, but you don't know what doesn't? Older generations trying to find anything to shit on newer generations, now that is sad.
@@x.L1lyyx No. What is sad is that certain things never change. We still kill, slaughter oppress and so on each other, yet a change in phone and camera, is more upsetting?
I’m one of the later gen z, but I still use a mix of the hand signals, like using my thumb and pinky as a phone, hand mixing a cake, a full hand heart, etc
My daughter was at her nana’s house and the land line phone rang. We said answer the phone so she picked it up and began screaming “where’s the send button” This was 2018 so she was familiar with a specific cell phone 😬 she had no idea about a home phone since she had never seen one. You should have seen her at the old library that still used an old shiny high gloss wooden card catalog 😂
I agree with the millennial ones even though I am gen z, and apparently I’m the only gen z (16) to use the roll down windows or something because I know no one my age to have had those car windows as a (younger) kid.
The last one doesnt make sense for gen alpha. She said how do you wash the dishes not how do you get the dishes clean. But i guess that just shows that kid has never washed a dish by hand or seen it done before lol
There’s some design principal thing about how old, recognizable symbols are good, like the camera icon is a old timey snap camera, the zoom / FaceTime icon is a big old video camera, the phone icon is a cord phone, and it goes on and on and on and it goes on and on and on yeah I throw my hands up in the air sometime saying ayo gotta let go
i am a very late gen z some would argue im gen alpha[born in 2009] but i did everything the millenial way cuz for some reason it felt like it was default in me
Our beautiful generation of Millenials. born in 1992, I had a wonderful childhood and generation. no smartphone, only the home landline when you hung up the receiver when you didn't want to talk to someone or you pulled the cable out of the wall if you didn't want to be disturbed. Music bought in the store and for the rest when playing outside and talking face to face, etc. beautiful times 😢

Changes in needs for skills and tech is part of human changes. If he didn't know how to wash dishes he could go watch a video how to. It's not rocket science. Also there are men who are 80 who never learned how to wash dishes because they were spoiled living in a sexist society. Or women even in 19th century who never did chores because they were rich and had staff.
Finally, generations getting to show their differences and be wholesome.
nah the video is fake these expressions won’t change generationally they are just like the general way to mean something, like you know damn well the guy on the left didn’t have to roll a window down like that
@@cherpsy3770 I'm genz and have had to roll down a window like that. Not everybody has had brand spankin' new vehicles and things. For reference I grew up in a 2005 kia rio. That was considered 'new' to me. Many friends of mine had their family cars date to the 90s, so I didn't see it in their cars either. 2020 when we got a jeep compass I was pleased with something as simple as a button to roll down and up the windows.
This video isn't "Fake" just because you were pampered lol.
@@cherpsy3770my father had a scout that had rolling windows, I was exposed to it when I was young, and im gen z.
@@cherpsy3770found the gen alpha
Of course you had to say wholesome
''How do you wash the dishes''
''that aint my job''
Ok boomer
Jesus loves you so much more than you think repent and stay blessed
Taking pictures is like make a square with your thumb and finger for me
The little boy loading the dishwasher was adorable 😂❤
It was not because he was told to do that
Meanwhile our household:
Dishwasher exists but we pay no attention to it's dust collecting
Yeah, I have one, but I just wash dishes as I use them so I never really need the dish washer.
@@Suekru3 extra storage man, thats how it is in asian households. we had a dishwasher that wasnt run for the 3 years we lived there, but u can bet it was full of pots, pans, plates, all that crap
@@thunderbutt357XD big drying rack fr
I swear to god I'm more Asian then some Asian the dishwasher is only used to store pots
@@Speedwagon-ej1fewe are one of those asian house holds. only used it 3 or 4 times to actually clean the dishes. the other times where to get rid of the dust that slowly acumulates overtime.
Really glad to see people not trying to mock a generation for doing things differently in this video and in the few comments I've read
Woah... It fills me with nostalgia for some reason... It's interesting to see how things change.
I’m gen z but why do I do all of the millennial things
Because you’re old! You’re maybe an old gen Z
@@Justme-tz1tt I’m only 17
Cuz we're like the last generation that experienced the world with less tech when we were little
@@GooseSupremeyoure still gen Z, we seep into millennial bc thats how it is, old millennials had us like im 17 my moms 40 but shes millennial by 3 yrs my dad is millennial being 37. they had us teens to mid 20s but raised us on their shit (and also like neglected us and gen z saw the twin towers collapse was there for iraq iran afgan katrina and more but like yeah)
bottom line millennials seep into gen z. gen alpha 2010 on is the modern age when you think of 0-14 yr olds being failed by education system and young millennials and older gen z who are 20-25 birthed em
@@luci-ana I do think that probs depends on what year someone was born and maybe also the country? I'm an older gen z from 1999 and definitely grew seeing tech become what it is now and saw like the rise of smartphones etc. I feel like in many ways I relate more to millenials also bc that was who I grew up watching either on tv or like youtube etc. almost all the people I used to watch and still watch are millennials and I can relate to their experiences bc those are similar to my own more than someone who has only ever seen smartphones or never burned a cd or dvd
As a painter I’m offended that door edge ain’t painted.
they def told the gen alpha to do all of the new tech for the video LMAO
so true! no gen a kid ever would do hand signals like the ones the gen a kid does in the video
Ong one video has never made me feel so old so fast. Thanks, I’ll be thinking about this the rest of the week. 😭
This is really cool to see. It makes me wonder what these things are going to look like several years from now when our generation is considered old fashioned ❤
As genZ I'm horrified of gen alpha, i can't imagine making the phone sign, camera sign and car window rolling like that 😭😭
Edit: that's the most likes I've ever gotten tx yall
Yeah, the millennial version makes so much sense
Im literally a gen alpha and im scared for our generation.
@@thatrabidbear There’s hope, if you’re scared.
Me too
@@thatrabidbearI’m sorry your comment made me cackle
I will never understand the finger heart!
My fingers are weird, I make kitties😂
I don’t get it either.
Easy, you take your fingers and make a heart. It looks like a heart, so it’s a heart.
It is easier(and more heart like) to make a heart with the entirety of both hands vs. the finger heart. ❤ This wasn't to say one way is better. I just prefer the Millennial version. The other way reminds me of throwing up gang signs, lol. 😂
it's actually uncomfortable lol i can't imagine the finger heart being natural for me
He whipped that cake too good 😂 He be whipping that work 😂😂
This isn’t about the generations. This kid’s just grew up with some fine amount of money.
If you are in a first world country these have become pretty standard ways of living even if you are considered poor.
@JLG35X some yes but not all. I'm in a first world country and the older homes where the poorer households end up don't have a dishwasher.
"So you both DO know how to do the damn dishes!" ❤😂❤
I was watching over some gen Alpha kids the other day and one of the conversations they had was about how gen Alpha sucks and they can’t read. The look on their faces when I told them they were gen Alpha themselves LOL
People don’t realize that the oldest Gen Alpha is literally highschool freshman, they need to stop bullying them when they’re basically an add on of Gen Z
@huntingorgon4480 2010 is way too old to be part of the gen z category. What are you talking about? That's like saying gen z is just an add on of millennials witch we aren't
@@darthgamer6239 dude have you even met any 2010-2011 kids, if they have older siblings then they’re basically raised the same
@huntingorgon4480 no I don't actively try to meet kids 2010-2011 but I do have 2 cousins one much more gen z and 1 much more gen alpha and they are completely despite being sisters
in the past everything is by hand, nowadays is using tech only. Miss that time
This is absolutely adorable ❤
Loading a dishwasher sent me 😂😂
Jesus loves you so much more than you think repent and stay blessed
@a.wo9
Bruh this comment and video has nothing to do with religion.
I predict we will be adding “how do you back up a car?” to the list in the near future.
Yes...first thing I did was swing my hand around the couch and look "out" the back window!!!! Still back up that way! The camera thing just tells me when you top ..bbeep beep beep beeeeeepppp😂😂😂
i use the camera for the precision part, but still do shoulder checks for the broad strokes.
I'd rather get out of the car and check the distance than rely on that screen
Or, even better, drive a car made from a material that doesn't scratch easily
I still know someone who used those rolling down windows, love them
Gen Zs who doesn't have a dish washer or cake mixer:
I think we all know this is staged , but at the same time , i really hope no one is actually like that
What? There's nothing wrong with that. It's just a more updated version. It's not like it's rotting kids' minds or anything. It's just not what your boomer brain is used to.
"How do you answer the phone?"
Man: 🤙
Kid: C
How do you stereotype people?
Men (ah yes because they have to be males don't they): I don't.
Kid (why is this one in singular instead of plural) (also, these are people you have never interacted with in real life): OH Gen Alpha bad, Gen Z good, Millennial Good.
@@stupiditiusmaximus What are you on? Are you stupid? You're reading way into it, the og comment isn't stereotyping at all. They're literally just describing what was shown in the video. Did you even watch it?
@@stupiditiusmaximusThey’re referring to the people in the video that’s why🤠
@@stupiditiusmaximusoh my god u are brain dead 💀
I'm currently learning ASL and this is wild for some reason.
Honestly the gestures you use also reflect on where you are from. Less developed countries dont have dishwasher or have the new cars where you just hold the button. I am late gen z and i am from a 3rd world country and we still had cyber cafes and DVDs in like 2014.
I'm pretty sure DVDs were considered completely normal even in first world countries in 2014 and a few years after that. Even now, if I have something on DVD, I'll use that over streaming
@@younscrafter7372 no DVDs were still used around 2014 on western countries but they were slowly decreasing in use however from where I was from, DVDs were at their peak around 2014-15. Also a lot of people even in 2016 from where I was used 2g phones. Even I had a Nokia
As an early zoomer from 1998 i relate to the left guy. I think right kid impressions are super new and the majority of gen z do that in the old manner. And more than that i think old impressions are not just linked to the time. Now it's like a established normal way to show it cayse you can understand it much clearer. I think alpha kids will change the way they shiws things like photo or phone later.
Yeah…as an early Zoomer I relate to the guy on the left as well
You can take photos with the louder button on your phone. So it's quite the same movement as is was back then. 😊
Yeah they did this, because we are used to it. Well … we were used to it. Now it’s not needed anymore and will probably be gone in a few generations of phones.
@@leoniagara3134 I don't think so. It's actually very practical when you are trying to take a picture from an angel where you can't reach the display button while holding the phone. So I often use the buttons instead.
Gen Y got all the struggles, Gen Alpha got all the solutions and Gen Z witnessed all the struggles and got the solutions 5 seconds thereafter.
Electric mixers have been a common western kitchen gadget for decades. Same with dishwashers (though that was is a little more recent). The analog tasks haven’t gone away, either. Those two felt coached.
The point isn't whether they've been around. Its to show they are so far removed from the "classic actions" we are receptive to, to the point the execution of the action has actually evolved
@@bellebradlington5924 I have always had a smartphone. Used an old phone maybe twice in my life. Still do the sign of the millennial. It's not being remote, it's just an accepted body language 🤷♀️
Agree!
@@bellebradlington5924 [insert Captain Obvious gif here] I am going to encourage you to reread my original comment. The fact that you thought I needed you or anyone else to clarify so that I could understand that the tools utilized to carry out specific tasks have changed over time is baffling to me. I *disagree* that commonly accepted gestures representing *some* tasks have changed significantly, especially considering these are learned behaviors typically passed on by the adults in a child's life. You got any other sterling observations for me? Wanna tell me that the sky is blue and water is wet?
They are showing how times have changed, I know dishwashers always been round for decades but guess what they where for the rich and not common place.
I live in what you call poverty , so even though I'm young I still very old school too
Its really cool how things change!
I'm sad most people in the comments are just hating on the gen alpha kid bc its different. Nothing wrong with what he did, just did how he knows!
I'm gen z and yet I answered all the same as the millennial.. ☠️
Perhaps it's bec its about gen alpha and not gen z
The question was how do YOU wash the dishes, not how you put them in the dishwasher. Poor gen alpha will keep dishes dirty when the dishwasher breaks.
Cute x3 i love generational differences haha
This proves nothing but that kid's parents and grandparents worked hard to give this generation a better life. And when they said better they just wanted less effort. So they made everything automated and i love that. Its wholesome not bad at all. We want our decendents to have a good life. And automated life is a good life.
No one said Gen Alpha is worse
@@daniel678b did i say that?
i do both hearts but i guess that makes sense im gen z im tha transition
Ok but we can all agree that the millennial heart will always be better.
The dishwashing is a summer child who has yet to move out into his first apartment without a dishwasher...
How do you make a heart?
-Millenial: 🍑
-Gen alpha: 💎
Meanwhile Gen Z🙄🙄🙄
What did Gen Z do? They do the same signs that the Millenial did😂😂
what's this supposed to mean
Probably both
@@OperatheGhoulette depends on if they’re closer to millenial or gen alpha
@@bananayummyable yeahh
Should have asked "How do you dial the phone?"
Bit sad tbh
What that time changes? Go through history especially the last hundred, shit changes, but you don't know what doesn't? Older generations trying to find anything to shit on newer generations, now that is sad.
Why do you say that?
Ppl didn’t have phones once upon a time 💀
@@kozma8362it’s just sad how everything has changed now
@@x.L1lyyx No. What is sad is that certain things never change. We still kill, slaughter oppress and so on each other, yet a change in phone and camera, is more upsetting?
I’m one of the later gen z, but I still use a mix of the hand signals, like using my thumb and pinky as a phone, hand mixing a cake, a full hand heart, etc
Charades on hard mode because everything is just pressing a button XD
My daughter was at her nana’s house and the land line phone rang. We said answer the phone so she picked it up and began screaming “where’s the send button”
This was 2018 so she was familiar with a specific cell phone 😬 she had no idea about a home phone since she had never seen one. You should have seen her at the old library that still used an old shiny high gloss wooden card catalog 😂
That moment when you realize you’re 18 and 100% a millennial…
The heart shape with the hands from ur boy makes sense to me, ive always done it that way
I dont know why but i genuinely expected the answer to "how do you wash the dishes" from both to be 🤷♂️
I notice that as a Gen Z kid I tend to do the Millennial ones more often, probably because they are more universally understood?
Me doing the classic phone hand picking up thing and then pressing an imaginary button on my hand to hang it up lol
Im a gen z and i used to do some from millennial and some from gen alpha. 🤷🏻
That last one is actually crazy tho
i kinda miss the car windows that u had to roll down manually because they remind me of a simpler time (as someone who's early gen z)
I agree with the millennial ones even though I am gen z, and apparently I’m the only gen z (16) to use the roll down windows or something because I know no one my age to have had those car windows as a (younger) kid.
“How do you roll down the car window?”
My brain: PULL THE F^CKING WINDOW DOWN
The last one doesnt make sense for gen alpha. She said how do you wash the dishes not how do you get the dishes clean. But i guess that just shows that kid has never washed a dish by hand or seen it done before lol
Y’all remember the bell reverberating when you slammed the receiver down? Just me?
“The guy on the right was more correct but the one on the left just has so much more experience”
I heard a story once of someone showing their child a floppy disc. Their response was ‘oh cool, you 3D printed the save icon’ 😂
They definitely told the boy what to do to make it different
Me, a Gen Z who does the milliennial ones: I'm too old for this sh$t🍷🗿
There’s some design principal thing about how old, recognizable symbols are good, like the camera icon is a old timey snap camera, the zoom / FaceTime icon is a big old video camera, the phone icon is a cord phone, and it goes on and on and on and it goes on and on and on yeah I throw my hands up in the air sometime saying ayo gotta let go
i am a very late gen z some would argue im gen alpha[born in 2009] but i did everything the millenial way cuz for some reason it felt like it was default in me
Our beautiful generation of Millenials. born in 1992, I had a wonderful childhood and generation. no smartphone, only the home landline when you hung up the receiver when you didn't want to talk to someone or you pulled the cable out of the wall if you didn't want to be disturbed. Music bought in the store and for the rest when playing outside and talking face to face, etc. beautiful times 😢
I am gen z. While I actually use a cell phone and such, I would pantomime the millennial way because thats what I associate the hand movements to be.
