Fellow Millennials, we're getting old, and unlike other generations, we're open to admitting our mistakes.
Always under attacks, the Millennials showed that they're not some snowflakes, as the boomers called us. Yes, we're full of empathy, and we genuinely wanted to create a better world.
But, we're also victims of social media and some super bad propaganda. Why am I talking in the past tense? Because we're almost 40, and it's time to face the music. Shamelessly, and with no regret, we give you 22 things we, the Millennials, thought were normal.
Hopefully, gen Z will have as much fun as we did back in the 00's, and perhaps they will learn from our mistakes.
