On the one hand, you miss the good old days; on the other, you feel like you're closer to your Medicare era than ever!

These memes and tweets, many of which were shared via Instagram on @millennial_misery, will make you feel that strange combination of "awww, what a throwback!" and "oh my God, when did I get so old?" If you remember the 90s at all, this applies to you. We are no longer The Culture. Billie Eilish has more Grammys than any of us and she was born after 2000. As one of these tweets puts it, companies aren't necessarily targeting a millennial audience anymore. At least, we're not the priority. That would be Gen-Z. And if you have already made several complaints about Gen-Z as I have, then let's face it: we are now just like our parents. Pretty soon they'll be saying "Ok, millennial" instead of "Ok, boomer." If you're laughing at this, good for you. I'm crying.
