At 35 years old it’s definitely weird witnessing the beginning of the internet and how it evolved into what it is today. I think we experienced the best of both worlds
I tend to agree, especially if this video is even a little accurate (which, it sadly is.)
At 66, I could say the same...and my first computer class was in 1975, on a mainframe behemoth using punch cards. My first PC was in 1987, a whopping 286. Floppies, ETC.
Was saying the very same thing to my siblings yesterday. We were the last generation to have a childhood without the internet and boy am I grateful for that.
44 here. My first computer was a Commodore 64, and I learned to program in BASIC. I couldn't have even imagined the Internet at that time.
Yup. 49 here, and I think we came along right in the sweet spot: I grew up 70s/80s and did all the things us middle aged Gen X'ers say we did (played with friends in person, rode bikes, experienced sunlight, blah blah blah)
BUT we were still young enough to adapt to new technology easily when the internet, smart phones, etc came along.
In Italy, not only we have "gen z like" teens, we've got medieval age adults too; and the mix is hilarious
why medieval age adults ?
@@ownmicelio lol he doesn't know proper english
@@milantehrandubai lol you only speak one language hahaha
hey dumb f, how does it feel to think in only one language? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😱🤌🤌🤌
@@milantehrandubai That's rude. He likely means how stuck in the past they are. Older Italians are often mad racist, super Catholic, anti-gay af, etc.
@@milantehrandubai it means their lifestyle are medievallish
How you managed to get a gen z’s attention for more than 30 seconds is incredible.
😂😂
take the phone away from them
@@curtisw0234 Why would you want to kill them?
Gen Z can only read one word per day and then they're too tired
Hahaha. The worst is when people over 50-60 become social media addicts. Their attention span and multitasking skills almost completely disappear, and they have such little control over it. I've literally seen it first hand. It's like brainwashing.
She just started dancing out of nowhere 😂
Yeah, I need someone to explain that to me because her phone was dead and charging (I’m guessing she wasn’t recording). So…..what in the HELL was she doing??
@@eaglevision9791 practicing 😂
I was hoping that that was the method to help her remember her mom's phone number 🤣
*tiktoking lol
Is that a thing genz do? 😂
Nikki's facial expression while the girl took a phone is just hilarious
It always amazes me how good her facial expressions are.
The whole thing was hilarious.
If i could express my entire opinion & statement of facts about what's happening in this planet's direction with social humanity in 2 minutes and 53 seconds; take a wild wild guess how i would do it?
Nikki fine ass hell!
She looks pretty cranky, not acting.
I’m a high school teacher and the random dancing for no reason is sooooooo accurate!! Other things Gen Z can’t do: read analog clocks - please include in Part 2!
first time I saw it on a mall I thought it was a mental patient
They seriously cannot read analog clocks?! 😧
Dance thing was real ? 😂
Being a gen z I can say most of then are really really dumb.
A couple weeks ago, a kid -- 12, 13 years old -- asked me for the time and I said, "Quarter to five." He looked at me and kind of mumbled it back at me ... "Quarter to five ... " and then just walked away. I'm certain I had not helped him at all.
“You can’t just stand here and tik tok!!” 😂😂😂
The red head girl had me dying she did such a good job acting 🤣
Who knows if she's really acting. This might very well be live footage.
Acting? What do you mean?
When she reached for her monopoly money! 😁
“Acting”
She wasn't acting 😐
the dancing was so spot on, as a high school teacher, its so weird watching them just break into dancing.
Wow, I didn't know that was a thing. I feel like these creatures need to be studied more.
They grew up on fortnite. They also have no real sense of community outside the internet. It's their coping mechanism.
Back in my day (I left school 9 years ago), you would get beat up if you randomly started dancing
Isn't it great that kids these days are moving, learning routines, and working together to create fun videos using the latest technology?
They're NPCs.
As a millennial, it's so weird now being the cranky grownups to Gen Zs all of a sudden while STULL being "those kids" to older generations.
As a gen-x I can't remember the last time I felt young. Thankfully though, wouldn't want to be young again.
@@lucialuciferion6720 we better get used to experiencing the internet one 11 second clip at a time because once they take over completely we're going to be doomed
@@jamessanders145 that will become too long and it will be 5 or 4 seconds for next gen i assume
I showed this gen Z guy at my work a cassette player as a joke like “do you know what this is?” Then he made me feel like a dinosaur at age 31 because he legitimately didn’t know what it was.
I’m in gen z, I’ve know what a cassette player was since I was a kid lol
If you feel like a "dinosaur" at only 31 because you know what cassette players are Imagine how you would feel if you remember A-track tapes. 😓😓
Wait, is this stealth,or do you think they're called "A"-track?
@@flameripper5502 Yeah. I'm 31 and had to Google A-track tapes. Sorry, old man.
show them a floppy disk and they'll think you 3D printed the save icon
When she just randomly started dancing I had no idea what the hell she was doing and I’m proud that I didn’t know.
Same. Apparently they grew up with TikTok and Fortnite and lack any kind of social knowledge/skills, so that seems to be their way of coping with reality that is so so different from their online experience. I think a deep study into these new specimen a la National Geographic would be recommended to support understanding the odd quirks and features of this species.
@@D4RKBRU73 Species 😂😂
@@zizi5721 😜
Isn't Fortnite a video game? Why would that make you randomly dance? Sorry, 38 yeard old here don't know any of this shit
@@southbeachtalentCause in the fortnite you can start randomly dancing too
More devious Gen Z teen vs. angry Millennial, please! Your chemistry is great!
Part two of them trying to smooth things over at a restaurant with the millennial being organic, non-gmo, windmill energy cooked, and chemical free, insisting on washable utensils and the GenZ being gluten heavy and chemical heavy eating literally lab grown meat and publicly vaping and insisting on all disposable cutlery to do their part in saving the lives of the boomers from the virussss. 🤢 🤮
Not only did we know our home phone numbers (in the 80s) by heart, but 50 of our closest friends numbers as well. Not to mention, some of our extended family. And many, many others. This is terrifyingly accurate.
I made up songs to remember peoples numbers!
Okay great and you probably used rotary phones and had party lines we get it lol
@@crazy808ish yup, we did, what's your point?
You knew them by heart because of the rotary phones! I knew a lot of phone numbers by heart when I had to enter them in manually, but now that I don’t have to, I’ve forgotten all of them
Honestly even today if you want to call someone quickly remembering that phone number is kinda faster than searching their name in the contacts list. The only thing that tops that is quick dial / favorites.
I’m 28 and I remember having to learn my home address and phone number, as well as both my parents’ mobile numbers, when I was in elementary school. Our teacher would actually quiz us on said info throughout the year (for example, it would sometimes be a bonus question when we had spelling tests and whatnot). I’m not sure if any other teacher in the school did this, but I’m so thankful mine did. To this day, I still call my parents by manually typing their number in just so I never forget them.
ME TOO!!! 29 here, my parents are still the ONLY number I manually type in my phone before calling, even though I have it saved up lmao
I'm 33 and still remember our first landline number even though it's been long gone omg
That's why I stopped saving numbers to contacts for certain people.
@@AstroMartine same.
Hey Millennials, this is how a lot of Gen Xers (and I'm assuming Baby Boomers) felt about you guys. And I'm not talking about the older Millennials that are almost like Gen Xers and are like 42 years old or something, no I'm talking about the "Millennial, Millennial" folks born around 1988-1993. You guys knew nothing about the 80s and only had fragmented memories of the 90s.
Wow Nikki, I know you usually stick to doing comedy sketches, but this mini-documentary on the collapse of American society was just brilliant. Brava! 👏🏻
@C Mar It was comedy but was actually more sad and scary than funny tbh as u stated
Oh my, times change constantly. My grandparents thought my dad was never gonna amount to anything for listening to the radio. Just accept the change. My roomie a few years back was 10 years younger, I'm very millennial and she's very GenZ. But let me tell you, in this world created by the generations before us, her and her friends actually give me hope! They're aware, involved and compassionate. And they aren't the ones who messed so much up in the first place. You go GenZ!
But TikTok generation is doomed for certain 😂
Collaps of every human society
@@jonnnnniej But do they have any necessary skills to keep society going? They want to save the environment? Great, how many of them are studying and are proficient in engineering? How many of them study economics and have the work ethics to run a company to ensure employment? How many of them have knowledge in aggriculture to feed themselves and the future children? How many of them can even coock? How many of them have the IT skills to build and operate a computer or run a server? Heck, my 21 year old roommate doesn't even know how to unclog a constipated toilet because, and I quote: "I don't understand any of these complicated technical stuff". And now think about how many of them would rather be a RUclips or Tik Tok streamer. They are still young and naive. It might change once they grow up and mature into proper adults. But as it currently stands, it is unlikely to happen. They are rather on track to propell us back into the stone ages.
It's funny how Gen Z is so obsessed with the 90s but when it comes to technology, it's just so complicated or boring to them
You might think that, but this video is inaccurate
Keep thinking that buddy 😂
I'm 32 and this would certainly be my future Grandson or Granddaughter 😭😭
You sacred the crap outta me, Nikki!
Your son would be gen alpha 😂😂........
It does not have to be, It's all parents' fault. They put them on ipad when they are 2 years old instead of taking them outside or doing any activities with them. Also, It's mostly in western countries kids act like that.
Sacred...
* scared
Nope, this would be your kids.
"Hey, Siri, call Mom" That had me howling with laughter!
" NO! Now you're calling my mom.."
The way she looked at REAL phone was also pretty good.
Honestly, we need to stop being such lazy people with our words. The word "phone" should of been dumped at least in 2012, for cell phones. They are NO longer a phone, i.e. a device to EXCLUSIVELY make VERBAL phone calls.
Smart "phones" have been doing way more than that for almost a decade now, hence, it is not correct o call them phones anymore, just because they ALSO make phone calls.
We should say/ask instead " hey can I borrow your Personal Tech Device for a minute.." or " can I see your Smart Media Device "; IDK, SOMETHING other than the word that we've used for over a hundred years to ONLY make PHONE calls!
This kind of stuff drives me in-SANE on a daily basis. Primarily with the youngest generation, but even with other ages of people sometimes. No one knows how to do anything manually, or understands how to just put down their cell phone for even 5 minutes. Everywhere I go people wander around like zombies with them, relying on them for every little thing. And I’ll be the first to say that I’m a person who upgrades my cell phone almost every single year. But I’d never take it into a restaurant, a theater, etc. Most of the time I leave it in my car when I go into the grocery store as well. There is just no need to have it on you that much, like an I.V. in a hospital. Stop with all of the social media and just go physically visit your friends and, oh I don’t know, actually see them with your own eyes and talk to them face to face!
like an IV, so true!
What if there's an emergency and someone's trying to contact you but you don't have your phone on you?
@@eobardthawne324 Ha! We’d do what we’ve always done and go find help. Go to the nearest house or business. Flag someone down passing on the road. Go find somewhere that has a phone you can use. Or better yet, have the knowledge to know what to do IN an emergency other than just call someone else, until you can find help. Whether it’s administering CPR or a tourniquet, or knowing how to keep someone calm if they’re in shock. Unless you live in the wilds of Alaska, you’re likely always near, if not VERY near a million places to get help. And if you were in a super remote place you likely wouldn’t have cell coverage anyway. You’d need a satellite phone. I’m just tired of everyone being so completely helpless and dependent on technology, and having no basic knowledge other than whipping out their mobile devices to call someone or Google it.
@@cgimovieman 100% agree, when I'm there to visit friends or do errands I'm not constantly staring at it. I like actual engagement & social interaction. I remember a few months back going to the doctor with my mom. I brought my phone with me but put it in my pocket, looked around in the waiting room everyone was glued to their phones. I was like holy shit, this is sad. I just sat there looking around. Technology has done some amazing things but has also disconnected us from each other as well. I'm 36 so I've seen both sides before it all & after. Just blows my mind
@@cgimovieman A lot of those things takes time and it would be a lot easier if you had your own phone to call help instead of wasting time running around hoping someone is going to answer the door or pull over. What's your solution for if someone is trying to contact you about an injured family member but they can't contact you because you're too busy trying to make a statement by not having your phone on you.
as a gen z, i promise that not all of us are like this. but there are definitely some people who are like this.
You are all like this... Useless and entitled.
The young redhead girl did such a great job in this skit. 👏 🤣
I was showing my laptop to my nephew (10 years old) and he attempted to touch the display... that day I introduced him to the pointer and the trackpad
Wait until he finds out about mice and keyboards.... it's gonna be mind-blowing.
It’s not about his age, it’s about what he’s used to. I have a friend who’s 40 years old and he keeps touching my screen every time by mistake. It’s because he has a laptop that has a touch screen so he’s used to it
@@SheOnEarth he probably thinks that you are living in retrograde
@@alliwishis_2 Hahaha probably! 😂😂 I wish my laptop was touchscreen though, he has more money than me 🤣
@@SheOnEarthI'm 28 now. I grew up with computers back when we still had Dial internet and Tube Screens and TVs. I had a Laptop ever since they became an affordable alternative.
I recently bought a model with a touchscreen and it took me less than two weeks to get so used to choosing between keyboard and touch screen to the point where I started touching every computer screen on sight without even considering the fact that they aren't wide spread yet.
It's such a convenient feature it took no time at all for my brain to classify it as a given now.
I'm 38 and young kids today are like an alien species to me. They actually weird me out so much. I know just how my grandparents must have felt! Social media changed the world in so many ways that IMO aren't exactly beneficial to human progress.
Im 15 and i agree with you
If I could press a button and the whole Tik Tok / Reel medium would disappear, i would have no hesitation. This entire format is practically designed to dumb us down. It catches attention so easily, doesn't allow to convey a single useful information and it wastes so much time.
"Like a pirate?" I lol'd. Great channel!
Sadly very true to life.

This skit hits hard Nikki. Oooof!
In fairness to her, I legitimately never have cash on me 😂
@Rik Hernandez With no cash, how do you leave a tip in the hotel room for the people who clean up the room after you've left...or the people who carry your luggage at hotels and airports? If someone pays for the restaurant dinner, but I don't think they left enough tip, then I'll leave cash on the table to add more to their tip. Also, most gas stations charge you more for your gas, unless you pay cash.
@Rik Hernandez How do YOU handle all these situations?
Also, I don't like homelessness, but do you use your card when you donate money for a homeless person or a street busker?
@@curious1366 There is the option to tip when paying. If someone asks me for money I take them to buy some food. Easy.
@@curious1366 Also our generation mostly cant afford to do this sort of thing alot. Honestly the whole idea of having someone carry my luggage is foreign to me, belonging to movies and old books about the wealthy.
Least you know what it is and how to get it if you need it 😂
As someone who has been through two Cat 5 hurricanes…you’re going to need it when the grid goes down. I warned my friends to take out cash. They didn’t listen and were effed when the gas station only accepted cash for fuel for their generators/car because we had no electricity for weeks. This isn’t specific to Florida…this is global and you need to have a plan THIS YEAR for what’s coming.
The future of our world looks dark.
Why? Because young people don't understand obsolete technology and like to dance?
@@anyagee9467 no because they're ignorant
@@anyagee9467 it's not about them not understanding old technology. It's about technology shifting human behavior in just a decade.

Years ago my daughters and I came across what was probably the last pay phone in our city, and they were like, "Dad, what is this thing?" They truly had no idea.
but doesn´t it make sense to not know about something that is obsolete? Why are people acting like it's the end of the world. We probably won't be able to figure out what some technology or items from 30-50 years are for either.
hah i still remember the very last phone booth i've used. it was at a gas station near my college and was a calling a relative for a ride. it was a decade ago ☺
I’m in gen z, I know what that is

I’m a millennial currently in my 30’s and I still have my home phone number & home address memorized from when I was a child in the early 90’s.
Me too. And the days of the week and what is the months.
B-E-A-UTIFUL. You've made my day. 🤣
that ending is perfect
High school foreign language teacher here. During state testing, we have to get rid of our digital clocks because the red lights supposedly "causes added stress on students and makes them nervous." Instead, we have to cover them up for testing and replace them with analog clocks hung at the front of the room. The thing is, they don't know how to tell time on them because they were never taught. They are also no longer taught how to write in cursive. They get on my last nerves, but it's moments like these that really allow us to bond.
I’m born in 1990 and I can’t write in cursive. I was supposed to be taught this in first grade, but I never picked it up and wrote in block letters all my life which never really was a problem.
To be honest cursive is convenient for writing but it is an absolute nuisance to read. Unless someone is there to control the outcome of your cursive style (which no one does) it just gives you too much freedom to write incomprehensively.
This was brilliant! 😂
Nikki is a comedic saint!

I go into stores and people don’t accept cash anymore, the world is coming to an end
I see everywhere on the internet that america is going full digital and I hope it won't be like that here in Hungary soon. I'm a plumber and only dealing with cash and fortunately I can pay with cash literally everywhere, I don't even have a credit card anymore since I left my full time job and it's not a problem, most of the shops prefer cash over credit card because of the transaction fee they have to pay.
Great reset
Honestly, as a Gen Z this is accurate. When I carry a card I don't tend to also carry cash, and vice versa. In a situation like this I wouldn't be able to pay😅
You can type the numbers into the machine worst case scenario, I normally don't carry cash either as a gen z but I think it's better. I have no cash to get stolen and ATMs are everywhere
Always carry some cash, you never know what emergency comes up. Could save you in a pickle.
Eh born in 82' millennial and I never carry cash. Not sure what emergency could come up - I carry more then one card so if it doesn't work I have others and if my wallet with my cards was stolen the cash would have been in there too.
Once in a blue moon I'll run into some place that is cash only and I'll usually just go somewhere else, or if really necessary I'll go to an ATM. I can't really find a reason to actually carry cash.
Also when people beg for money I don't need to lie and can say with a strait face - I don't have anything to give you.
Such an Epic skit!
this was like Brad Upton in less than 3 minutes >.
"You can't just stand there and... tiktok" 🤣
So few people realize the value of the redundancy afforded by cash, checks, and paper maps. Also forcing yourself to dial the phone numbers of people important to you, instead of taking a shortcut.
I get cash, it's legal tender but nobody out here is still getting scammed by checks are they lmao
@@michaelsmith953 Scammed by checks? I'm talking about using them to pay mortgage, rent, payroll tax, regular vendors, OR accepting them as payment from people I know and trust. Checks don't have convenience fees for using them, the payment can't get misrouted like it sometimes does with Venmo or Cash app. Unlike cards you don't lose 3-4% of your gross revenue going to merchant service fees. State or Feds don't "accidentally" take out 3 times what they should for payroll taxes. As a bonus, they have stringent legal fraud protection. If a check you wrote falls into the wrong hands, it's relatively easy to get your money back.

I guess internet and social media accelerate the change of civilization.
Plus, human civilization getting softer, more civilized, so the following gen worries about the proceeding gen more and more.
.
I'm Gen X and yes, I'm still puzzled by Millenials deep connection to instagram and it's flexing lifestyle.
.
But The 40's 50's Boomers generation (my mom & dad gen) weren't so hard to my generation though, and My gen looked up to Their generation with sincerly. They went to the moon and great engineering development.
.
And the great depression generation (my granny gen) were a bit more critical to gen X, but not so much. Boomers looked up to this gen because they came out WW1, WW2 and great depression. They being called "the best gen"
.
Before that was 1800's plague, feudalism, etc,

I have a weird experience because i'm what people consider nowadays a gen z'er being born right in the year 2000.

Most of my cousins were born from the mid 80s to the mid 90s, being considered solid millenials. So with all that i had a mixed way of growing up. Nothing like gen x (even though i'm into your culture), but a little bit like the millenials. If i was born one year before in '99 i would be considered a "zillenial", but because i was born right at the start of the 00s, i'm in a very weird spot. But maybe in 10 years, us late 90s and early 00s babies will be like the core millenials are considered now. People won't hate on gen z forever, just like they didn''t with millenials.
Gen Z here and dang you really got this one correct XD. I remember in grade 2 when our teacher forced us to memorize our parent's phone numbers and our addresses and she gave us a whole week to memorize it and some kids still didn't get it... I was baffled as I had already memorized mine for years! Also literally all my friends think I'm weird for not having any social media so now I just tell them I'm too dang busy doing actual productive work to waste time mindlessly scrolling :)
I’m in gen z too, the same thing happened to me, my friends don’t know their parents phone numbers either, and I also don’t have social media
Good stuff. It will pay off later in your life.
Should have made it a dang Tiktok challenge and they would have had it memorized by the end of the day. 😆
OMG when she started dancing! x''''D
That was hilarious!😂
I’m not gen z, but I do have gen z friends. They’re not really like this and they’re not dumb lol I think it’s more about the personality of the person. My gen z friends are smart, creative, they don’t do random dances, they are digital creators, and I’m 100% sure they can use an old fashioned phone if they need to. I don’t even know anyone else’s phone number by heart and I’m not gen z lol
My generation was being laughed at back in the days, saying we were lazy, this and that. Didn’t feel good and they were definitely wrong. I would hate to see another generation being ridiculed. My experience with gen z has been different. It’s been quite positive actually.
Thank you.
Every generation has idiots and they sometimes become the stereotype for everyone.
That’s not really an old fashioned phone…many businesses still use cordless landlines like that. An old fashioned phone would be like a rotary phone
@@jayhay8 yeah true, the old fashioned phone is super simple to use too
That's not an old fashioned phone lol. That's a regular landline that all businesses use. And just like every generation, there's going to be people who make their entire generation look bad. But it is becoming the norm. And the public schools are definitely to blame for most of that. They don't know anything about politics except for what they see on tik tok and they are just told to go to college and it will make you smarter
0:59 All of Nikki's cognitive functions shut down right here! lol
How does she not have more followers . I love her😂❤
This is hilarious! 😂😂😂😂
I had a gen z girl come in for her eye appointment and didn't know what insurance she had, she just knew that her mom had insurance. Then I tried to help and ask her where her mom worked. She didn't know that either. Then her mon texted back what type of insurance she was under, so I needed her moms birthdate to find her. She didn't know that either. It was very annoying at how little she knew and how much time this was taking because we were on a time limit for her to see the doctor. It seems like gen z only care to know what's trendy and when it's about them. How does one not know their own mothers birthday? Even her older boyfriend was embarrassed.
The TikTok dancing killed me 😂😂😂😂
I lost it as soon as she started dancing 😂
It’s funny to see Nikki be the normal one in a skit 😂
Part 2 please 😂
You're always on the cutting edge of ridiculous issues we have in society today.
Nikki, you are insane😂
This became like a short modern day version of Monty Python's book shop sketch when Nikki started losing it.🤣
The increasing reliance on technology can also lead to a lack of general awareness about the world around us. As more and more of our interactions and information are mediated through screens and digital devices, there is a risk that we will become less connected to the physical world and to the people around us. This can lead to a lack of empathy and understanding, as well as a disconnect from the community and the environment.
Overall, while it is important to recognize the advantages and conveniences of technology, it is also important to be aware of its potential drawbacks and challenges. By staying mindful of these issues and working to find a balance between our digital and physical lives, we can help to ensure that the upcoming generations are able to thrive in a rapidly-changing world.
