Gen Z stare

A label given by Millennials and older generations to the incredulous look that Gen Z people give them when they are asked a question that is so ridiculous that they don’t know how to reply. They go into a state of disbelief, a look that says “are you serious?” Before they either reply with the answer they assumed obvious or just simply shoo the person away if there’s nothing they can do.

Older people call this rude or stupid behavior, but honestly. It’s usually warrented

Millennial or older person: can I have the strawberry banana milkshake?
Gen z: sure
M: I’m allergic to bananas, by the way
Z: so… would you rather have a strawberry milkshake? Since you’re allergic
M:no, I want a strawberry banana milkshake!
Z: *Gen Z stare*

Gen Z

Proof that the future of humanity as a whole and the civilization the Greater Generation built for the west is doomed. Thanks to social media, AI, and unrealistic expectations of reality brainwashing the young adults of today, you can expect the economy to crash by 2050-2060 and a post-apocalyptic world by 2090-2100 since 99% of the adult/elderly population in that time won't know how to properly think for themselves, let alone govern anything. And Millennials, if not all dead by then, would gladly enable their idea of a "perfect" world.

Sometime in the year 2069...

Patient: "Doctor, I am having a hard time breathing, and my feet are red, swollen, and filled with pus! I don't know if I'll live for much longer..."

Gen Z Doctor: *pulls AirPod out of ear* "Sorry, I couldn't hear you. What'd you say?"

Patient: "I SAID I CANNOT BREATHE AND MY FEET ARE SWELLING UP LIKE BALLOONS! I THINK I'M DYING!"

Doctor: "Ohhh. Ye lmao. You probably are. ChatGPT said you have a disease in your brain, and we're gonna let our test robots perform surgery on you. For now, jus take some ibuprofen or something. Idk."

Gen Z Stare

a term used when a person from the Generation Z (usually working customer service) is met with a question and/or demand so fucking outlandish that they cannot do anything but look at the person with an empty stare of disbelief. Similar to the side eye, used way before this term.

The Gen-Z stare is used majorly when common sense is ignored.

Gen-Z Cashier: Your Burger comes with: Lettuce Onions, and Special Sauce.

Person: So there’s no meat in the burger?

Cashier: *Gen Z Stare* ….um.. what?
