00:00In the online generation wars, millennials continue to dig themselves into the cringiest hole.
00:04It seems Senorita Awesome and Quirk Chungus walked so that elder millennial could skate.
00:09Sometime in February 2025, the TikTok account of Assassination City Derby posted one of these
00:14trend videos where they go down the line listing their ages, showcasing the diversity of the team,
00:18which isn't actually that diverse at all. At one point, instead of saying her actual age,
00:24one woman just says, Elder Millennial. Given that that describes the ages of most of the women on
00:29the team, it's odd that she wouldn't just say the number, but it seems to be the quirkified
00:33millennial tone in which she says this that took Jen's ears out. The video has since been taken down
00:37from their page. The earliest known repost was shared by TikToker CakeAndMe1 on February 28th
00:42in a ranking millennial cringe compilation. But when did it go from cringe viral video to full-on meme?
00:49Elder Millennial. Elder Millennial. Elder Millennial. Elder Millennial. In mid-April, the video would start
00:52to get more attention as reposts would start to appear, like this one from BrandonWTP1,
00:57who added in text overlay that she should just say 50. Reenactments and parodies of the video
01:02would also start to emerge in droves, as TikTokers love a viral video they can try to emulate with
01:06100% accuracy. Elder Millennial. Elder Millennial. Elder Millennial. Elder Millennial. And then of
01:13course, popular Twitch streamer Jinxy's version also garnered a huge amount of attention. 33. 35. 35.
01:2038. 39. 40. Elder Millennial. But is the clip really that cringe? She has had some TikTokers
01:29jumping in to defend her, namely pointing to the fact that she got her whole derby team to laugh
01:33along with her, even if the rest of the world seems to be laughing at her. This could be a niche
01:37reference, but that joke was not meant for us. It's also possible that she was making a reference
01:40to comedian Eliza Schlesinger's 2018 Netflix special of the same name. Maybe they all watched it
01:45together the night before.
