So what IS a "zoomer", exactly...

Someone born in the late 90s or early 2000s.
A person born in the year 2000 is 19 now.

Baby Boomers are people born between 1946 – 1964.
Gen Z are those born around 1990-2000s
A single guy spammed a FUCKTON of threads going "that 30 year old boomer who X", with the joke essentially being "this guy is only 30 years old yet he acts like an old guy (a baby boomer)".
Following that, a mutation spawned, the zoomer (because gen Z). Used when referring to kids and young people.
And if you use any of these terms unironically, you fell for the spammer's forced meme and you should feel bad for being manipulated so easily.

really?

zoomer is gen z, or the "homelander" generation named so after homeland security was started after 9/11 and the increasing fear parents had in the early 00's over child predators and pedos.

they grew up in HoA neighborhoods, mommies took them on play dates, and your pic was their education.

Honestly nothing wrong with being trans

My dad plays Terraria with his boomer buddy, they're always building stuff from LoTR.

Any kid under 25

>I've seen anons here use it to describe kids who are addicted to games like Minecraft and Fortnite, but I've also seen it used to describe adults in their late teens and early 20s who grew up with sixth and seventh gen consoles
They are both zoomers, since neither are, and can never be, boomers

That starter pack is the most all-over-the-place thing I've seen regarding the subject.
Rickrolling? Because nothing says "Zoomer" like a song from the 80s that became a meme among 4channers in the 2000s.
Pokémon trading cards? Those were popular in the early 2000s.

Zoomers are born 2000-present. That would make Minecraft, Fortnite, and Justin Bieber Zoomer stuff.
Yeah Zoomer culture fucking sucks, but that's not entirely their fault. That has more to do with the general decline of society since 2006.

base set Charizard and Exodia shouldn't be in this pic.

Nothing, everyone born from here on out will be zoomers

Gen Alpha

generation death

Zoomers are currently anyone under 23
Core zoomer is 0-21

It's not just because of shit TV shows and Tumblr. It's because of a general trend of soullessness in culture whose roots began in 2006.
I'm not entirely sure what started it, but I can say that smartphones, social media, Bieber, iCarly, Vine, and Minecraft are all symptoms of the problem, not the cause.
I should also mention 2006 was only the BEGINNING of the end.
In my personal opinion, 2010 marked the point of no return. So it's probably more complicated than just a one-year threshold.
What I can say is that World 2 (1950-2006) has been replaced with soulless World 3 (2010-present).

Nah, sorry bro. No matter what way you spin it, 22 year olds aren't fucking Zoomers.

>icarly

society declined because of a tv show I don't like

I wrote a whole paragraph, and you focused on one word.

zoomers are people who were too young to remember life before 9/11, or people born after it

Because everything you said is stupid. Justin bieber is just this generation fucking Britney spears or junstin timberlake and what exactly is wrong with minecraft? Go away

That's all late millennial childhood material though.

a buzzword that replaces newfag

Where did this retarded meme about pinning thresholds based on people's memories come from? And why 9/11?
Soon people are gonna be saying "if you don't remember Hurricane Katrina you're a Zoomer".
The best and objectively correct definition is 1980-1994=Boomer.
1995-1999=Buffer Zone; 50/50 Boomer/Zoomer
2000-present=Zoomer

What is that program's name to the left of Exodia? After I graduated high school, the game design class started using that for teaching and it was the most horrendous shit I've ever seen. Before that, the teachers forced a program called Alice which was arguably as ugly, but in 3D.

All this makes me think is that society's sense of wonder and any semblance of "soul" died when post-irony became the norm. Ironic Weebs, Cringe Culture, Meta Humor, Deconstructed Memes, all that shit is the worst part of this Zoomer generation.
People don't like to have fun. They're scared to like things because you're judged more by how cynical and witty you are than what you enjoy doing.

Based and boomerpilled: anyone born my year or before
Cringe and zoomed: anyone born after me

If your earliest memory isn't from 199x you're a zoomer.

Nope, its anyone under the age of 19.

Friendly reminder that if you are born between 1982 and 2000, you are in fact a millennial aka generation y aka echo boomer. Oldest zoomies only started turning 18 this year.

Basically refers to kids who grew up with the internet. Damn near everyone post 2000's.
Us boomers know what life was like before the internet came along and changed how people socialize with each other. Zoomers don't really know how to comprehend this type of landscape. It's almost alien to them.

If you don't remember 9/11 you are a zoomer.

Attached: 1rJT9Cx.jpg (3600x3600, 1008K)

The true boomers are about 30 years old. We grew up with the original power rangers, VHS tapes, SNES and Genesis as little kids, Macauley Caulkin movies etc. People born in the late 90s don't qualify it's a completely different experience.

Really? Because I'm pretty sure if your earliest memory IS from 199x you're a Zoomer.

What the fuck is this shit?

What I will say is being born in the late 90s sucks dick.
It's like getting a taste of a world so much better, only to have it taken from you and replaced with this shitopia.
If I could choose my year of birth, I'd probably choose '91 or '92.

Exodia, Charizard, and BeyBlade definitely don't fit with this.

zoomers are gen Z

9/11 was a critical traumatizing event to the American consciousness. Before 9/11 nobody really gave a shit about the Middle East or foreign policy in general and everyone was on top of the world from "winning" the Cold War.

But actually the main cultural shift towards paranoia was from Columbine. 9/11 just compounded the issue.

it is too late, its already popular

That's a really weird place, since I was born in 1998 and my first console was a PS1.
Could it be that this generation shit is bullshit and what people grew up with varies from person to person?

Why would I be a Zoomer?
I have an SNES and a Nintendo 64. I have a massive DVD collection, most of them being movies from the 20th century and early 2000s.
Ocarina of Time is one of my favorite video games. I'm pretty fucking far from a Zoomer, my man.

>born in 1996

DHS was created as a result of 9/11

My earliest memory is from 1999 when I saw so many fat people in one place from the midwest in Disneyland.

People have been doing that since 90's nostalgia became a big thing back in the late 00's/early 10's
You had people born in 1997 who INSISTED that they were "le 90's kids" because they wanted to be a part of the circlejerk

9/11 was a national tragedy.

>Pokémon card from when the oldest zoomers were a couple months old
Ok

Arguing with retards like you is pointless. You refuse to read anything I say. I could write a dissertation about my interests and lifestyle, and it would go in one ear and out the other. You simply aren't human, or at least you don't understand human interaction the way most people do. You are a shell of a man, programmed to repeat buzzwords and ignore any argument that contradicts your worldview because you are so hollow you can't learn from what you read.

Those are Y2Koomers. But it's funny when the le based Gen Z meme came up leading to the election, everyone was saying those born in the late 90's are millennial faggots and will never be cool kid Gen Z. Now those same cocksmokers are saying the reverse because being a zoomer is a bad thing now.

Late 05 - 2010

False. Youngest Zoomer is 9

*Born between 2000 and 2010.
FTFY

Anyone born after 1994 is a zoomer. Why are you faggots in denial? Who cares if you're a zoomer. At least you're not a millennial.

There were definitely some bad UI in the earlier years when everything tried to have intrusive gimmicks to play up the "wow" factor instead of having a snappy functional UI, but yeah everything today does the minimalist metro window meme and it's so mediocre and unresponsive.

Because in the words of other people here, "Zoomers hate Ocarina of Time".
I was born in the late 90s and Ocarina of Time is one of my favorite games. This proves that Zoomers are 2000 to present.

95 and 94 people are identical

It probably is bad to be young now. Just picture in your head a world before the stresses of social media where your only problem is maybe the school bully until 3PM. These kids today are driven looney with technology overload from the womb.

Some of these items would be late millenial starter pack items instead of gen z

In my opinion, 95-99 is a buffer zone, meaning if you were born in that era, whether you're a boomer or a Zoomer is determined by what you like. This is because the late 90s isn't inherently skewed in the favor of one generation, due to it being sandwiched in between millennials and Zoomers.
It's a similar story with the early 80s. Whether you're X or a millennial depends on your personality.

You're just saying that because you want to make yourself feel better by putting down others.
97-99 is part of the buffer zone.
If you were born in 97-99 but have memories of the early 2000s and have boomer tastes, you're not a Zoomer.

Millennials heard it all as kids in the 90s

This.

I was born in 1990

>being an unironic "born in the wrong generation fag"

No, not "this".
95-99 is the buffer zone. That guy just wants to insult others by saying someone born in '97 is of the same generation as someone born in '03. That's a huge injustice and it's not true.

I've worked in advertising and PR with video games.

Right now, the video game industry is obsessed with Gen Z (no one I know actually says the word "zoomer") because the major gaming companies feel that millennials and similarly older gamers are stuck in their ways and unlikely to try Game D ever again if they like Game A, B, and C so much, and (2) they feel like Gen Z is easier to mold because they're basically children if they literally aren't

that's base 2 set you fucking retard. It's also completely worthless

Yeah, I was born in the wrong generation. You can't win, can you? If someone was born in the right generation you say "HAHA LMAO FUCKING ZOOMER FUCK YOU".
When I say I was born in the wrong generation, you say "LOL YOU WERE BORN IN THE WRONG GENERATION? HAHA FAG".

Nope. It's 95.

If you're not Gex-X, you're going to be a Zoomer. That's it. Millennials included. Gen-X and older are the Boomers.

Do all Zoomers like Fortnite, Minecraft, and 69 the singer?
Because in the other thread I asked this question in, someone replied "yes".

>Sonic Adventure 2
I'm gonna be honest, that game's kinda been depressing me lately.
It came out in 2001, a year I barely remember. The knowledge that something so great came out that year for kids older than me just makes me sad in an existential way.
It's like knowing that the world doesn't need me to be great. Which it doesn't.

Almost exclusively late-millennial shit. I know you're trying to come to terms with the fact that you're pushing 30 and you still come here everyday, but next time, throw a little more actual Zoomer stuff in the mix

people change these graphs every now and then it seems

Well if it's just defined by age, then why does it need to exist at all?
No one can agree on the birth range for Zoomers, and people just end up stereotyping the group, so maybe it's time to look at the real enemy:

No one can agree on what a Zoomer is.
