Generation Sigma is a new name for what was previously known as Generation Alpha (traditionally, those born between 2010 and 2025). At the very least, Generation Sigma defines a micro-generation of people born between 2007 and 2013(ish).
The global pandemic significantly changed the life experience of today’s teens and tweens, in ways we don’t yet understand. The research on the pandemic’s effects on young people today is only just now beginning, and we have much more to learn.
Regardless, these young people went home from school in March 2020, leaving 1st through 7th grade, ages 7 – 13, not knowing what to expect. For them—yes for all of us, but for them, in their formative elementary and secondary school years, the entire world changed. Today, they are ages 11 – 17, going into 6th through 12th grade.
This group of young people, born 2007 to 2013, may be our newest generation, or micro generation. And what better name than to call them the ultimate of ultimate praise, according to their slang of today, and to stick with the Greek alphabet tradition, then to call this group Generation Sigma?

Get the generation killermug. Describes mostly older generations (boomers and older) who have difficulties adapting to modern society with its changing values, new technology and younger generations.
Origin:
Borrowed from German "Wellblech-Generation" (literally: corrugated-sheet-generation)
While boomers still tend to name millennials "generation Y" (modest reference to themselves), millennials fought back, and renamed the older generations.
It refers to a parable about the difference between the generations: "While we millennials and younger build real houses, they boomers and older still build theirs with corrugated sheets only."

You're so outdated, you clearly belong to the corrugated-sheet-generation.
Why would you not care about others? That's totally corrugated sheet like.

The generation comprised of people born from approximately 2018-2038.
They will be the first generation that collectively takes away from society as opposed to contributing to it. Examples:
Their contributions to technology will be less intuitive, useless, and provide solutions to problems that didn't exist.
Their contributions to culture will be unoriginal, awkward, and tasteless since that is all they know.
They will abandon what remains of the social dress code, wearing pajama pants to funerals, leggings to prom, and basketball shorts to weddings.
Lastly, they will determine that the risk of offending somebody is too great to engage strangers in any type of dialogue and make it a hate crime to do so. Confusingly, they decided the word 'crime' was too offensive and now use 'offense of the oppressed'. These are punishable by the offender receiving a direct deposit of $2,000 in to their bank account for each offense, $3,000 if they don't have a bank account.

These Generation Less Than Kids spend more of their lives looking at the world on a screen instead of just looking at the world.
