A misnomer used by Baby Boomers to express contempt for every whippersnapper and rapscallion younger than they are. It is synonymous with The Greatest Generation's use of the word "hippie."
Grandpa: These Millennials riding around in their Baby Bjorns, watching yeet memes on their iPhones, and telling Alexa to order more quinoa because they're too busy playing Fortnite to get off the davenport and go to the piggly wiggly! Get a job, Millennials!
Younger person: Grandpa, Millennials are like 35 now. They have 401(k)s and everything. Your cardiologist is a Millennial.
Grandpa: Stop back-sassing me, you Millennial!

Get the conforming millennial mug.William Straus and Neil Howe's clustering of millennials based on birth years, the generational classification was referred to as Generation Y, and muddled the fair representation of those who experienced their adolescence and cognitive-development years in step with the nascent phase of home-based Internet access technology.
While often lumped together with millennials (as defined by Straus and Howe), the developmental phase of social interaction, which involved information technology's burgeoning impact on society, was overlooked. Generation Y represented the crossroads between millennials who were well immersed in computer technology even as far as experiencing an institutionalization of computer education in academic curricula and Generation X members who were heavily immersed in broadcast media's influence and yet largely uninitiated in computer technology. Generation Y represents the link between the non-digital age society shaped by Generation X, as adolescents (MTV Generation), and the dawn of the Internet age that saw the transitioning of society to easily accessible online communities (Bulletin board system, MIRC, Yahoo! Groups, Internet forum) especially during the introduction of dial-up Internet access to households.
Gen Y entangled pop culture and digital community-building through bulletin board systems, online forums, website mailing groups, mIRC, ICQ, and other electronic modes of communication (predecessors to social media) into today's digital age.

The Millennial Generation definition is wrong. Generation Y members are completely distinct in upbringing and in their world views from Generation Z.
