In a resurfaced clip from 2024, he posts \u201cA Bit About Millennials\u201d wherein he explains there are two types of millennial<\/a>. \u201cFirst of all, you\u2019ve got your classic \u2018chaos millennial\u2019 and they rent with either their friends or their partner. They will have a proper job, but that is the only one mature thing in their life. And for eight hours a day, five days a week, they\u2019re able to convince other people that they\u2019re actually a fully-functioning adult.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n He then goes on to describe Type 2. \u201cAnd the other type of millennial went into a completely different direction. They\u2019re now married with children. They\u2019ve got a mortgage. But despite having all that, they still actually feel like a child living in an adult\u2019s body. And now both type of millennials are friends. It\u2019s just that neither of them can quite understand how the other one is managing to live like that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n He further describes their differences, saying, \u201cLike one of them will talk excitedly about something their children have done. And the other one will talk with even more excitement and enthusiasm about the fact that they\u2019re favorite band growing up is now doing a reunion tour.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now to to be fair, as a Gen X-er, this would describe a lot of us as well. (Many of us are a cool mix between each type.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Though Lambert posted this on multiple platforms, there are over 4000 comments on his TikTok comedy page<\/a> alone. Some are just proudly relating to the group in which they fit. \u201cChaos millennials unite!\u201d writes one, garnering nearly 5000 likes and many comments. One TikToker shouts: \u201d YASSSS!!! I\u2019m basically a child in an adult body trying to earn adult money to buy toys for my inner child.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Type 1 millennials also feel seen. \u201cDid everyone know Aqua is doing a reunion tour?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s unclear as to which type this person lands on, but they feel represented nonetheless: \u201cThis hit me like an eloquent brick made of reality.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The truth is, according an article<\/a> posted in The Guardian<\/em> in 2023, <\/em>RentCaf\u00e9\u2019s \u201canalysis of census data\u201d shows just over half of millennials own homes. \u201cTheir home ownership rates increased dramatically even in expensive metro areas such as New York and Los Angeles.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Speaking of homes, Upworthy\u2019s<\/em> Annie Reneau <\/a>covered Lambert\u2019s hilarious clip, \u201cHow Different Generations Arrive at People\u2019s Houses.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n As for kids, they\u2019re giving Gen X (once termed the baby-busters) a run for their money. According to a Pew Research <\/a>study conducted at the beginning of the pandemic, \u201cMillennials trail previous generations at the same age across three typical measures of family life: living in a family unit, marriage rates and birth rates.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n This research adds, \u201cMillennials lag furthest behind in the share living with a spouse and child. Only three-in-ten millennials fell into this category in 2019, compared with 40% of Gen Xers, 46% of Boomers and 70% of Silents (the Silent Generation) when they were the age millennials are now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2025, the plan to have fewer or no kids remains higher for millennials than other generations thus far. Another study<\/a> concludes, \u201cThose currently in their 30s are having less kids than previous generations.\u201d They further note, \u201cThese declines in the number of children adults plan to have occurred almost entirely in the last decade.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
