Technically speaking, Gen X is the one who invented memes. Millennials perfected them, and Gen Z just took the flag and ran with it.
Gen Z memes and humor are in a world of their own. Anyone over 25: How many of these memes do you even get?
What Does It Even Mean?

Answer: Nothing. It means nothing. Some Gen Z humor is like an onion, with layers upon layers of irony. And then you have this.
'Your Honor, My Client Is an Aries.'

To clarify, millennials don't hate Gen Z. We just don't want to deal with low rise pants again.
Zillennials Are a Thing? Does That Mean There Are Also Xillennials?

Or Xoomers? Make it make sense.

Their humor is exceptionally dark, and the fact that we can't always tell if they're kidding is terrifying.
Can’t We Just Get Along Already?

None of you are better. We're all human dumpster fires out here trying our best.
He Does Look Like a Harold

What if Harold is a girl? Did you just assume a bug's pronouns? Rude.
We Can Understand Harold, but Dave?

What does it mean? BRB while I ask my 15-year-old neighbor to translate.
Seriously, Are You Guys OK?

It's like being born into a recession, paying for health insurance you can't afford, the ice caps melting, the coral reefs dying and human rights jumping out of a plane with a poorly packed parachute is depressing or something.

Matisse would be confused. This looks like the photos everyone took in the Photobooth app on first generation iPads.
Don’t Worry, Gen Z. Boomers Don’t Get Millennial Humor Either

Millennials got gay marriage legalized, elected the first Black U.S. president and made it OK to have a butt again. Now, we're just trying to figure out how to buy houses with pocket lint.
Gen Z, take it away. We're too tired to stick it to the man anymore.

He'd probably be cool with it. If your work is in the finest art museums and spread through teenage pop culture at the same time, you obviously did something right.
Some Gen Z Humor Is Dangerously Close to Dad Jokes

Exhibit A. How is this not a dad joke? It is. A good dad joke, but still a dad joke.

Fitness influencers are annoying. They probably didn't even get the Fairly Odd Parents reference.
