generational ban

Refers to the New Zealand generational ban on smoking for anyone born 2008 or after
With the generational ban on smoking in New Zealand, kids born after 2008 will grow up in a smoke-free environment, which could lead to healthier future generations!

Generational fumble

Shane Bieber's pitching in the 11th inning of the 2025 World Series
Man, Toronto could have had it's first World Series in over 30 years if it weren't for that generational fumble of an 11th inning!

generational paradox

A phenomenon where young individuals from Gen Z feel prematurely aged or burdened by adult responsibilities at a relatively young age (e.g., 22), while older Millennials experience a sense of being "old" around the age of 35 due to societal pressures and expectations.
It's wild how the generational paradox hits hard; my younger sister is only 22 but talks about life like she's already nearing retirement, while my Millennial friends keep saying they feel young at 35.

second-generation enabling

Refers to either of two equally-unhealthy practices that seemingly "skips a place" in the chain of progression, but has a comparably-negative result --- Person A acts as a financial "crutch" for Person B, allowing Person B to continue his dissipative lifestyle:
(1) Where you do not beg resources directly (i.e., "first generation" enabling) from a financially-solvent person who is sick of your mooching, but you instead ask your "benefactor" to extend charity to your equally "spongy" offspring (i.e., you shamelessly take advantage of the person's "family man" nature by using the pathetically-manipulative "cute cherub-faced kiddos" or "they'll only be young once, so I wanna give them a decent childhood" pressure-excuse), or
(2) You don't request a certain amount of money --- say, twenty bucks --- from the disgruntled "provider" for "excessive/addictive/self-abusive" products (i.e., tobacco, alcohol, lottery tickets, unnecessary "pretty things", etc.) that he refuses to provide you with, but you instead ask him for that same twenty bucks to purchase "basic necessities" like simple groceries or household/repair products that he HAS agreed to help you out with obtaining... the catch, of course, is that you spend your OWN twenty bucks on those other unhealthy/senseless purchases instead of spending it on the healthful basics that your friend is giving you money for, and so in the end you are still getting him to make it possible for you to continue your unwise/unhealthy lifestyle.
Be wary of anyone who agreeably says, "Okay, fine --- I won't ask you for any more money for unhealthy stuff; I'll use my own funds for them. But please do give me some money for those "basic necessities" that you said you WOULD buy for me." Well, don't you see --- that's really the same destructive deal when all's said and done --- oh, sure, the person may indeed not be "directly" asking you to buy him cigarettes, but the person is merely using the last of his **own** money for them, and then asking you for money to buy the groceries that he himself could have purchased if he hadn't spent his last dollar on coffin-nails! It doesn't really matter where your added funds are "injected:" into the person's budget --- it's still just second-generation enabling!

me generation

Refers to the person who uses their cellular communication device for nothing but taking selfies. The only thing they contribute to any situations is near identical photo's of themselves posted to social media.
Lars has gone on a me generation vacation. Now that he's botoxed his face, you can't really tell his vacation photos apart from the ones he took on previous vacations - every picture looks the same: Lars with a different background.
Turn the camera around sometime.
