we need more zennial/xennial videos! I'm a zennial, but I have a sister who is a xennial, a brother who is a millenial, and another sister who is Gen Z. 😁
Okay so I think I got it. Your older sister is a late Gen X early millennial. Your bro is a solidify millennial. You're a late millennial early Gen Z, and your younger sis is a Gen Z. Goodness, that sounds confusing yet logical. 😂😂😂
@@queenmedina Zoomers (or GenZ) '97-12... are the last gasps of the Millennials who are bridging into the GenAlpha, the kids born in 2010 and later who are 100% digital tech kids with little to no reference materials (except older siblings and parents) to the analog generations previous to theirs. plus the Alphas grew up as tiny kids (10-year-olds etc.) during covid and the omnipresence of technology interfacing with all facets of life.
*takes deep breath* The X in X Games stands for Extreme. The reason it's called the X Games is because, like many, many things humans like to shorten words. Also, X Games is supposed to have a space, but for some reason, sometimes it doesn't.
For how things are where I grew up I was exposed to a lot of gen X culture when I was little, at the same time than Millenial and gen Z also, so, I am a millenial from the middle of the 90s but I kinda vibe with 3 generations, I saw Cantinflas (I am Latino, he was like a Mexican Chaplin with sound) the dukes of hazard, Mcgiver, Adam West Batman, the Barman and Robin movie, the first seasons of the Simpsons, happy tree friends, ALF and more, all at the same time this while also playing with a super Nintendo from a friend of my brother, using a computer in my aunt house that got internet in the 2000s, playing NES and SNES games with emulators, having a PlayStation 1, etc. I am a mixture that got all the old and new tech with all the old and new pop culture while growing up
I feel seen as a Xellenial. But we actually had a previous sub generation name - cold Milenneal/cold y - if you were old enough to remember seeing the Berlin wall bite it on TV you may be close to qualifying for AARP.
Dude same, my husband just asked me if we’re Gen Z or Millennials and I really don’t know... I feel like we don’t fully identify with either since we’re on the cusp
To answer the question as I am one as well. A Zelennial, is someone born within the last 4 years of the previous millennium. As it takes about 5 years for the human brain to develop a strong cognitive function for speech and motor movement. So people between 1995-1999 are the mix of Z and Y. Just like those born between the last 5 years of gen x are mixed with gen y. Then there's the issue with cold war lost generation that spawned directly after the baby boomers, but I'm still trying to figure out if they're more so just boomers in comparison too gen X seeing as they inherited the cognitive dissonance of a baby boomer with only subtle traits of empathy found within mainframe gen X
@@shadictheultimate this is the best answer anyone’s ever replied with. I was in a chat for one of Hyrams lives and a bunch of the kids in there were just like "you’re Gen Z duh 🙄💯💨✨👌🏼✌🏼🥱" or whatever 😂
This is my thought come to life . When I watched the last short released before this one, I said to myself, “Wait? What? Xennial-Zennial. That’s got to sound EK-Z-ACTLY the same. How do we know who is being referred to?”
This is our span we deal with. My step daughter explained the xelennial and zelennial thing awhile ago to me. She was born when her parents were really young, so that is our spacing. Generationally we seem to get along pretty well, but I think their generation is going to be a lot more ready to take over the world.
I consider Xennials as Gen Y2 millennials. They’re much older than I am but are still considered millennial by definition. I’m Y1. The cousins I was around a lot growing up are Y2 and I always thought they were crazy old and were Gen X lol.
I'm still 97 here as I'm 3 months from the Zennial cusper of Gen Z. But I'm no different from the youngest millennials of 96 to the side of the early 80s.
The cusp people. I'm a Gen Jones myself as opposed to the Leading Edge Boomers. I have more in common with the Gen X than with the early boomers as I was a kid in the 60's and 70's. Became a young adult in the 80's. And yeah, I'm old.
Yeah. We watched the death of MTV and mourned its past greatness. We’re not really the same for many many reasons. I’m starting to feel out of touch but a lot of true millennials are still relevant. I’m very ok that that ship has sailed. Lookin at that poem When I am Old I Will Wear Purple with a fonder eye and ready to do whatever the heck I want because I’m pushing forty and half the things I was taught don’t seem valid anymore and my young adults think I’m nuts. Not a millennial. Not a millennial. Not a millennial. (At the very least I don’t drink. That should excuse me.)
I think this is why the alternatives are used a lot. They are: xennials (ex-en-ee-uhls) and zellenials (zee-lehn-ee-ahls) Makes the distinction easier when speaking
I'm Zellenial, my little sister is young Gen Z. And thanks to some of your other videos I now know my brother is technically older Gen Alpha. We're...an odd bunch.
Born in 1994. I call myself a baby Millennial, but maybe I am more of a Zinnial. My mom, dad, and I are definitely on the cusps of different generations. 😅
81 here; I always did like the idea of X-ennial better than Xennials anyway…..but yeah, I do end up helping a lot of Millienials spell anything with 3 syllables or more
I've never really related to any of the generations I was born in 03 so I missed out on a lot of the millennial stuff but I also wasn't on the internet until 2017 so I missed out on a lot of the gen z stuff (was poor)
As a kid who was born in '99, I'm pretty sure I'm a Gen Z but I'm not 100% sure. Although, my favorite past time is saying I'm a 90's kid and seeing all the olds freak out about it...until I'm backstabbed by my friend who was born in 2000 when he says I was born last century. Et tu, bro?
oooh i get it, thanks @fuosdi64... i totally didn't get it even after 5 loops. Dave is the 'younger brother' with the Z since he's born further from the 'tail end' of my GenX and X is the 'older brother' since he was born right AT the end of GenX.
Can I just say I was born in the 80s? I think this is easier 😅. 70's music is my elder aunt's go to songs, 80's music is my youngest uncle's theme songs of his life, and 90's music is my childhood to teen years memories.
My approach to this is saying Zennials the way it looks, and pronouncing Xennials as kuh-zennials similarly to how the Greek letter Xi is pronounced as kuh-see
Born 82 .... Some charts say X goes to '83 most say '80 i think ... For myself i feel like my childhood was more of the X experience with some millennial flavor, then flip it for the teens 😅😂
Funny thing is my nickname in high school was Dave and I'm definitely a Zennial, I feel it in my bones. The fact he said Dave in this finalised it for me 😂 (Backstory on the Dave nickname: one of my friends gave everyone gender swapped nicknames, using the same letter as the first letter of their name.

Okay so I think I got it.
Your older sister is a late Gen X early millennial.

Goodness, that sounds confusing yet logical. 😂😂😂
I'm thinking it should be pronounced, "shennial", "çenial" "szenial" or maybe more like "kseenial"
I've been pronouncing it zgames this whole time.
Born in 91 myself... and yeah Dave is a good dude
Born in 1996 I definitely feel this lol one day I'm a millennial one day I'm gen z
either gen x [ I know I remember hearing 'gen X-cellent (excellent) ] ; or millennial or xellenial.....
I just don't know!!
I feel you my dude, 96 is a weird in between year that no one really wants to claim. Please claim me
@@theonewhocannotsmell127 Actually 1996 is now usually considered millennial by most sources
My son was born in 1997 and I definitely wouldn't classify him as a Gen Z.
@@crystalsaiz5248 sadly he is gen z tho. He is the starting year
First I was just a Millenial teaching Gen Z. Now, I'm a Zennial who teaches Zoomers??? This is just frustrating. Where is my wine?!
Damn 😫
Who are Zoomers?
theres always a micro gen between primary gens. the one between boomers and xers is jones gen.

I played xylophone for 4 years on school band.
@@jaytoplay0 I’m Gen Z. Like right in the middle of the generation age range. I was born in 2005 😂
I thought they were pronounced "x ennial" and "z ennial", like how xgames is pronounced "x games"
I thought it was Xennials and Z-ers
Some people do pronounce it that way, but the person who coined the term pronounces it with a "zuh" sound
I always pronounce it the way you think it is pronounced X-ennial. That is how everyone I know pronounces it.
I have never heard the actual X sound, only zzzzz, which is why it’s funnier, Xennial and Zennial sound the same.

Yep
Yay, more microgen love!!! Xennial approved.
What's happenin' fellow Xennial?!
Glad we are finally getting some recognition!
We had a pretty kickass but weird time.
I never miss a video. Always makes my day.
Please, grove this man an award , he has earned now 😂❣
It’s always confused me too, I always pronounce it zennials and ecks-ennials to be less confusing.
Zillenial from '98, I'm ok with zennial, but zillenial is slightly better. But, I guess we can all be daves if that's what's needed
I feel seen as a Xellenial. But we actually had a previous sub generation name - cold Milenneal/cold y - if you were old enough to remember seeing the Berlin wall bite it on TV you may be close to qualifying for AARP.
Yup. I was there at the time and have a piece of the wall. This is the first year I received my senior discounts. 😂
From a person born in '92 anyone after us isn't considered human.
