Get the Haircut Penalization mug.When one generalizes an entire generation without knowing the fact that not all the people within a specific generation fit most negative stereotypes about them. This is especially used against the Millennials and Gen Z'ers.
Non-Millennial: All Millennials are so PC it hurts.
Millennial: Uh, I'm part of Generation Y and I don't even give two shits about political correctness.
Non-Millennial: Really?
Millennial: Yeah. Instead of going with generation generalization, how about we all just stop generalizing the hell out of different generations and actually work together to make this world a much better place for us to live in.

Get the Generation Generalization mug.When you are generalized for the town you live in and not for your actual circumstances. Usually very annoying for people who get generalized this way. A lower middle class person may be just able to afford a small apartment or house in a rather affluent area and then they get generalized as rich. Or a rich kid may live in a decent neighborhood of what is considered a bad area. These rich kids usually use this to make themselves seem hard or ghetto while the kids with the opposite problem are tired of the generalizations.
Wealthy kids who happen to live in okay areas of Mount Vernon, parts of the Bronx, Queens or Brooklyn are seen as hood but a kid who lives in a one bedroom apartment with his whole family who just happens to live in some wealthier town in Westchester of Long Island is considered soft. town generalization sucks
