    This was easy but have no idea what a boomerang is but I don’t use Instagram. I never owned an ipod but they are easy to use.

      American, with that celebrity at the beginning

      The names for each generation are American based definitions, after all

    As a late Gen X, I was completely lost. So, I guess it’s official: I don’t get your generation.

      I still don’t know what a boomerang is or was, but I guess I clicked the right button, so I didn’t miss any of them.

        A boomerang is a clip that plays and rewinds in a loop, like it’s flying to the end of the clip and returning like a boomerang.

        I don’t even use Instagram myself, why do I know this

          I know this because of my younger cousin, I had no idea how to post one but it seems like either of the bottom two buttons will work

        I’ve never posted to instagram as a millennial. I think that by the time something that wasn’t Facebook came around we learned that posting photos of ourselves online maybe wasn’t smart

    Skibidi toilet? As a 39-yr old millennial, I’m aware that was a thing like a year ago, but I assumed it was a Zoomer meme or something. I can’t get past that captcha.

    EDIT: Upon looking at it again, I see it just wants me to type in “what is skibidi toilet” into Google, not answer what it is. Ugh, I’m turning into my Silent Generation/Boomer parents.

      Ha! It took me a minute too to realize that having to google WTF a skibidi toilet is was the Millennial test, not being expected to know it.

      Finally, a sterotype of “millennial” that recognizes we kinda be old now!

      Yeah, maybe the m CAPTCHA developers only wanted to share nostalgic memories of Google search results without ads. EDIT : let me fact check before I’ve written a lot of nonsense. Yes, seems fair. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials

      You must be. It literally tells you what to do. Of course, I assumed proper grammar and got it wrong the first time.

      My genX ass was trying skibidi on its own cause most of the rest of the text is usually auto-suggested while typing in the search terms.

      I guess sending something BACK, so I hit the “your story” button. Don’t even know which app that was supposed to be.

      Exactly, a millennial has now clue about the newfangled kids stuff. Just hit “close friends”

      A boomerang is a short video that runs forwards, then backwards, then repeats. The post was already a boomerang, so you just needed to click share.

    I’m a zoomer, this was actually kinda hard. Especially the iPod and the select some guy ones. Would definitely keep me away from millennial only sites unless I REALLY wanted in. Nowadays I get annoyed at sites that even still use a captcha, cloudflare at least got rid of the kind where people fail at.

      As a millennial who doesn’t keep up with celebrities and Insta, I had problems with those two

      T9 a little, but that’s because I expected it to predict my text, as in typing 43556 for “hello” instead of 4433555 … 666

    I had absolutely no trouble until a slight delay on the iPod but had to give up a little later as my elder millennial ass forgot how to type on an old school Nokia 😄

      Easy Gen X pass. I actually think Gen X would be able to pass all generational captchas. We’re the first “microchip” generation and have generally kept up and lived through most of the tech fads and changes.

        Same, but only because I didn’t expect the website to support the real interaction modality

    I was a little lost until the iPod and the t9 showed up, then it was almost scary how normal it all felt. I didn’t even realize I still remembered t9 but I didn’t even have to think.
