mid 90s to mid 2000s style was the peak I won’t hear otherwise
JNCO parachute pants, a Korn shirt, wallet chains, and ball-chain necklaces were the uniform of that time period. Gen-Z mushroom tops also have nothing on the all around close shave with long front bangs.
@TimeSquirrel @siipale @BudgieMania parachute pants need a comeback. They were the most roomy and comfortable jeans ever
The only correct dimensions for pants are the dimensions that allow you to steal a second pair of pants underneath them
Yeah where the fuck do you put all your things in those slime jeans? I got more keys and glasses now shaking hand at cloud
I was so attracted to those type of girls when I was in high school.
Unfortunately, they were never into me :(
I still am, but nobody dresses emo anymore. :(

In my early 30s. From what I’ve seen, they’ve kind of changed it a bit and ditched the clothes, but I’ve seen them getting into tattoos a lot more.
As a non-tatted guy, who looks totally different from them, they’re still not into me and I’m still into it hahaha

Seek women of your own age instead of high school girls ;)
The Zim shirt is baller
Could assemble this whole look at a Hot Topic. Throw in a Jack Skellington chain wallet for good measure.
Stop lying, you know you like it!
This shit is still cool! I’m not even going to act ashamed! Hell fucking yeah I dressed like that, and It was motherfucking “epic!”
Wear whatever you think is cool zoomers, and stop for NO ONE! The moment you start letting others dictate your coolness is when you stop being young.
Dear gen Z. You’re currently in your cringe teen phase. One day you’ll look back and mock it with us.

Elder millennial here. Personally I view this as the kind of good natured ribbing that comes from a healthy relationship between an older and younger sibling. I think our generation (and Gen X too) have an overall positive view of Gen Z, but you are out of your mind if you think we’re going to pass up an opportunity to give them some shit when it’s warranted!
Rainmanslim’s comment doesn’t strike me as mean-spirited at all. If anything it’s the opposite of condescending because it acknowledges that the cringiness of being a teenager knows no generational bounds. Embrace it and enjoy it, and then enjoy it again when you’re old enough to laugh at your younger self!

Mate, that is a whole lot of projection and assumptions in one post. You do you, but I hope someday you learn that being able laugh at yourself is a strength not a weakness.

Man, if you are in your 40s and still clinging to this idea that you’ve never done anything embarrassing in your life, have never teased a buddy for something stupid they have done, and feel the need to get all self-righteous on me for enjoying friendly banter between strangers then I don’t know what else there is to say here.

That is an aesthetic I can get down with, though.
Give it 5-10 years and this will be fashionable again.
I mean… This looks exactly like the 90s.
If you’d told me I’d miss 2006 back in 2006 I’d have laughed.
Let the kids have their cringe phase
I’m so sad I never had a cringe phase :(
As an elder Millennial, I’m left wondering WTF I missed in 2006?!? All the girls in high school were wearing Doc Martins, turtle necks, and low-cut jeans while sporting streaky highlights in their hair, and all of the girls in college were wearing Uggs and puffy coats with faux-fur hoods. There was none of… Whatever this is.
This is the “scene kid” aesthetic that was popular in the mid aughts. They barely made the millennial cutoff as far as I’m concerned and they’re not very representative of our generation as a whole.
Hot topic goths evolved into emo lite

I don’t care what anyone says I still think this style is cool and I’m 27 years old. Maybe it’s an Enby/Agender thing though, I don’t know.
I use Plex and also think it’s cool
Invader Zim was the shit
The movie they made recently was damn good as well
I have no idea why the millennial vs gen z debate is trending right now but I just love it
It’s just more divisive bullshit purposely turned into bad memes to catch people’s attention. As usual, it puts people in groups and then encourages disagreement between them. It keeps people from looking up. It’s so stupid.
Besides, Boxxxy is just an e-girl. Where are the differences

Millennials are old enough to be crotchety old farts now.
Source: am millennial; am crotchety old fart.
I was that age in 2006 and that style was strange to me back then as well
Same, was in high school '04-'08 and maybe 1% of the kids dressed like that. Most of us just wore jeans and t-shirts, and had short haircuts.
To me these looks are cringe bc they look like the adults when I was a kid /teen (80s,90s) used to look.
We are big enough for reposts now? Great!
