(pronounced ZEE-len-ial)
It's a person who belongs to the younger end of Generation X or the older end of Generation Y. They walk, talk, and behave like Millennials but make no mistake: they are not Millennials. They're just a little bit older and a little bit more cringe, but the main difference is that they also have a little bit more of their sh*t together. Because of this, they're in that age where they don't quite fit in with the Millennials but aren't quite old enough to relate with their Generation X friends.
Xellennials genuinely enjoy drinking their coffee black. They like red wine, Facebook groups, Ted Talks, and they don't believe in "all that vegan crap". They probably have kids, a dog, and a 30-year mortgage plan.
