And we saw both Hulk Hogan's and John Cena's heel turns.

And climate change
The dot-com burst was a recession too.
Oh, and you are ignoring the entire thing where every currency except the dollar was destroyed in the 90s.
Also, history ended in 1986. It seems you didn't get the memo. It would have been typed and nailed into your local clipboard.

Hey, at least you didn't get drafted for Vietnam
Give it time, I'm sure we'll have Vietnam 2 before long.
I'll volunteer, on the Vietnamese side
I doubt they'd take the average American. Wont fit in the tunnels.
gets drafted for the resource wars one year away from being too old to draft

You're forgetting hole in the ozone
The hole in the ozone layer is recovering due to the bans on CFCs in the 90s. Climate change deniers deny this and insist that it is something that would have happened anyway...

Gen Z here. Bitch, this shit just getting warmed up, hahaha
Yeah, but I think we're going to get a participation trophy. I've been raised to believe this is the case, but that we should not be proud of it, because we're actually garbage.
3 or more possible WW3's
It is not unfair to clock the first bit. But you can't count hypothetical WW3s. That's like Boomers saying they lived through Hypothetical Nuclear Winter.
Also, if we're counting recessions as millennials, you can't neglect the '87 crash and the '01 dot-com bubble. If we're counting plagues, you can't leave out AIDS.
Not hypothetical as much as possible, near misses
-
Up to end of Soviet Union '91
-
US-North Korea-China
-
NATO-Ukraine-Russia
-
US-China-Taiwan (upcoming)
-
US-Israel-Iran (upcoming)
Not hypothetical as much as very real possibilities
Definitely can't leave out AIDS or drug epidemics, mass shootings, living under threat of terrorism

I’m pretty sure there a lot of worse stuff that’s happened in the past 100 years, you just know how that ended.
We know, we learned the details about WW2. Our grandparents and great grandparents actually lived through that, and told us the stories.
All the adults told us it would be better for us than for them. While they fucked everything up and then blame us.
