If you've ever found yourself saying, "Damn, I feel old," you're not the only one. Reddit user GeneJenkinson recently asked Millennials, "What's your take that makes you sound ancient?" Here are the responses I found equal parts painful and hilarious:
1."I remember when Taco Bell's regular tacos were 25 cents each."
-- u/QuercusSambucus
2."Music is too loud in bars, restaurants, and festivals."
-- u/Illustrious_Cold5699
3."Books are better for reading than tablets."
-- u/LaserPoweredDeviltry
4."I don't want any smart devices in my home. No Alexa, no Siri, no, 'Hey Google.' I feel like if I stop doing those things myself, I'll become helpless eventually. I also don't want these devices listening to me and tracking my every move."
-- u/Sad-Panda94
5."I refuse to spend money in places that don't accept cash. If I hand you a bill and you tell me no, I will leave."
-- u/anl28
6."A full-time job should be able to afford basic rent."
-- u/Caseker
7."If I already took my bra off, I'm done for the day."
-- u/Significant-Trash632
8."I don't want to scan the QR code to see the menu. And I hate AI."
-- u/AikiGh0st
9."I'm not downloading another app that I'm only going to use once."
-- u/No-Steak9513
10."Parking meter apps. I'm willing to pay for parking. Why do I have to download a special app for it? Can't I just swipe a card at a kiosk if nothing else?"
-- u/redditer-56448
11."Any get-together that's at 8 p.m.-ish, I just don't have the energy in me to go. Can we do midday on Saturday?"
-- u/IHateALotOfYou
12."I don't think emojis have a place in workplace conversations, even if it's on an app made like a giant chatroom. 🔥🔥 Let's get going 🔥🔥 does not make me feel all fired up."
-- u/Time-Space-Anomaly
13."If concerts started around noon, I'd be more willing to go to them. When the opening act doesn't start until 7 p.m., that means the main act won't start until 8, and the concert won't end until 10 at the earliest. No thanks."
-- u/Infamous-Goose363
14."If there's a line to a hyped-up restaurant, I will not go. I will wait until the hype cools down, or I'll order food to go from that restaurant."
-- u/IHateALotOfYou
15."Having to have complex passwords for everything is annoying. Bonus points if you're required to update them every few weeks."
-- u/pajamakitten
16."Kids' shoe prices are more expensive than adult shoe prices. Absolutely not. Bring back Payless!"
-- u/Intelligent_Bet_7410
17."Apparently, I'm old because I don't think it's a smart move to go into debt for concert tickets."
-- u/miss_scarlet_letter
18."Remotes should have buttons. Cars should have buttons and dials. Stop making everything touch controls."
-- u/SparkleSelkie
19."Paying for all these individual streaming services makes me think we should bundle them all together so I don't have to think which app the thing I want to access is on. We could call it something catchy like cable."
-- u/Significant_Push_856
20."20-ounce sodas were 99 damn cents! What are they like, three dollars now?!"
-- u/Sunset-onthe-Horizon
21."If you are texting or calling me after 9 p.m., there had better be an emergency, not this let's go pre-funk. I am old funk at this point."
-- u/MiniManMafia
