Generational Dissonance

When something is loved by one generation and hated by another. It's usually a case of something being hated by boomers and loved by either millennials or zoomers.
"Oh, I love Rise of the TMNT! Donny is best Turtle! uwu"
"NO YOU IDIOT! THEY RUINED THE TURTLES WITH THAT SHOW. The 80s Cartoon and live action film are where it's at!"
"Ok boomer. Looks like we have a case of generational dissonance."

Generation Sigma

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?

Generation-T

Everyone thinks the 90’s kids who grew up going outside and without social media, but there were a select few born in the 2000’s specifically known as “Gen T” who grew up just as a 90’s kid did, riding bikes all day, exploring abandoned places, staying out until the street lights came on, no phones or internet, just sticks and mud and a good pair of converse.

Generational Relay Race Fail

When previous generation member/s either deliberately or through inaction, deprives an upcoming generation of a family's birthright to its rightful inheritance of property and/or assets. The inheritance is the baton which had not been handed over to the next generation, in the Relay Race.
I could have owned money, property or a business but my parent/s decided. they couldn't be bothered signing some legal dcuments, and left my inheritance in limbo for someone else to grab. Man, what a Generational Relay Race Fail.

Generation Gamma

Generation Gamma, abbreviated as "Gen Gamma" will be the generation succeeding Generation Beta, and will be born between 2040 and 2054, though other sources date Generation Gamma to as late as the late 2060s. The generation to succeed Generation Gamma will be Generation Delta.
Yeah, my grandparents are Zoomers (Gen Z), but I'm, like, three generations ahead of them because I'm part of Generation Gamma. I was born in 2045.
