Oct 15, 2026, 12:32 PMPeople who call themselves "Xennials" are either GenXers trying to appear younger than they are, or Millennials trying to appear cooler than they are.
Pick a side, cowards, you can't have it both ways!

@kotaro I'm not sure the generational divides are the same in Japan. Which makes sense as they depend a lot on various historical and cultural shifts.
While Boomers and GenX can sort of work in Japan (the Boomers living their younger years during Japan's crazy growth and GenXers coming of age when the economy crashed and having "the lost decades" be their entire adult life), I don't see a big difference between "Millenials" and "GenZ" (unless I'm missing something)

That's a pretty cool definition, not gonna lie
