Gen Z mocks millennials for the VERY specific way they purchase big-ticket items - leaving the older generation feeling 'attacked'

Gen Z has teased millennials for the very specific way that they purchase big-ticket items - with those born between 1981 and 1996 left shocked at the 'attack.'  

Jessie Frazelle, the CEO of tech company Zoo, took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to reveal that she had heard that those born between 1997 and 2012 have criticized their elders for only using a desktop or laptop to buy items on their wish list.

Gen Z was born and raised in the age of a smartphone and is making sure everyone knows it as they have now mocked millennials for not dashing for their phone when needing to make a big-ticket purchase. 

Although phone-addicted members of Gen Z took a jab at millennials, they seemed to have no problem finding the humor in the situation as Jessie admitted she never used her phone to purchase anything. 

In a viral tweet, she confessed that she had never 'felt more attacked in my life by something I didn't realize I was subconsciously doing.'

She said: 'Apparently, Gen Z is making fun of older generations for never buying big ticket purchases on their phone and always using a desktop. I've never felt more attacked in my life by something I didn't realize I was subconsciously doing.' 

The social media post struck a nerve with millennials as it called them out for their hesitation to hit 'place order' while on their phone. 

Millennials on the web flooded the comments section and dished out hilarious responses - with many agreeing that Gen Z were spot on. 

One person said: 'It might be older vs younger millennial thing too. Wife who is three years younger has no trouble executing all sorts of complex transactions on the phone. Meanwhile, I need a grown up computer for any serious business.'

Someone else wrote: 'How are you gonna open multiple tabs and carefully cross-compare offers?'

'I'll attempt a big ticket purchase on mobile, but I'm immediately moving to desktop if the website/app is so terrible that I lack confidence in things working properly. It's more an indictment of how many companies still can't get mobile right,' someone else added. 

One user wrote: 'Millennials explored the internet ocean. Gen Z was raised on app store island. We know the secrets.'

'Gen Alpha will roast Gen Z for using a phone at all,' another person said.

One user added: 'Wait until they find out that I put 80 hours of research into buying a $450 thing.' 

'It's cuz I have PTSD from poorly optimized mobile sites,' someone else commented. 

In the past, DailyMail.com previously revealed that Gen Z could be losing their computer typing skills due to their addiction with their smart phone. 

As smartphones and tablets eclipse laptop and desktop computers, many are concerned that touch typing might become a forgotten skill.

Over the last 25 years, the number of young people taking typing courses has fallen drastically.

This may be driven by a reduction in the number of schools offering 'keyboarding' classes, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.
