    And this is why my millennial D&D group invites zoomers to join us, no better way to bridge that gap!

      In my experience Millenials are super inviting to Zoomers, but not the other way around. But that could just be because they are literally slightly more mature than Gen Z.

        I dunno if it’s maturity or just…

        Look I interact with a lotta kids, and they are not alright. If you told me a large number of zoomers literally did not know how to invite their friends to real life activities, I would believe you. I’ve spoken with a lot of Zoomers who are so socially awkward they don’t seem to understand a spoken conversation. I feel like we have an obligation to invite them to stuff, just to show them that there is a world off the net that’s worth living in.

        I very met some very mature Gen Z! They just happen to be the ones that don’t spend a lot of time on social media haha

        That’s how it always is. It has nothing to do with the “generation,” but more the stage of life someone is at.

        I didn’t get invited to things with people a generation or two older than me when I was younger, because I was an immature little jerk. Now I do, because my stage of life is a lot more similar to theirs now that my kids are more independent and I’ve learned to behave.

          Sure, but I know I didn’t rip on the genXers just because I was an immature little shit. I ripped on my peers because I didn’t give a shit about the older generation, and by the time I did, I knew genX was cool, if a bit detached and the real enemy was the capital class (and boomers to an extent because of how wrapped up in chasing the status they’ll never have while pulling the ladder up behind them).
