I ’m Gen Z , but I would be lying if I said millennial euphony did n’t kinda slap . 🤷 🏻‍ ♀ ️

Weasked members of the BuzzFeed Communityto tell us the “stereotypical millennial things” they unironically still love, and I’m kind of obsessed with their answers, TBH. Here are 16 of the ~cringe~ things they shared that they’re proud to still love…and I’m curious if you agree:

1.“Side parts. I will never go down the middle again.”

2.“Avocado toast 😌.”

3.“Using emojis 🤷🏼‍♀️.”

— Deepfriedpia

4.“Skinny jeans. Nothing can take them away from me, lol.”

5.“Harry Potter. Even though J.K. Rowling keeps trying to ruin it with her B.S., it just brings me too much joy.”

6.“Sending GIFs. At least, that’s what the younger generations have said we do often. But I love it!”

— marianmooret

7.“Ankle socks and headbands. They work for me and I don’t care if people think they’re cringe.”

8.“Classic UGG boots. Miss me with the clogs and booties.”

9.“You can pry ‘lol’ out of my cold dead hands!”

— BananaChip25

10.“Pumpkin spice everything.”

12.“Watching reels on Instagram a month after they’ve gone viral on TikTok.”

— helenc8

13.“I love the chevron pattern.”

14.“The music. All of it! From Backstreet Boys to Akon to Pitbull. Our generation had hit after hit.”

15.“Millennial gray. It makes other colors pop more in home decor.”
