About This Quiz

Love 'em or hate 'em, Generation Z is made up of people who are changing the world. In fact, over the past few years, there have been many rapid changes in technology, politics, shopping and the environment. That's because this generation has learned to speak up about what is and isn't right in this world, and they're certainly not afraid of being straightforward when they have to be. But this kind of honesty and bluntness has resulted in a rift between Generation Z, millennials, baby boomers and so on.

In particular, there's currently an online battle between Gen Z and baby boomers. Some older generations don't necessarily agree with what the newer generation is doing in this world. But others simply don't like how Gen Z folks act, as they are described as "sensitive snowflakes," "lazy" and "entitled." However, the new generation isn't going to stay quiet about this, as they've clapped back with their own meme titled "OK, Boomer." It basically means, "we're going to disregard what you're saying right now because your opinion doesn't mean anything to us." It's also synonymous with the phrase, "OK, whatever." So, where do you stand in this matter? Well, let's have you take this "OK Boomer" quiz now to find out what % Gen Z you are!
