Comedian Hilariously Goes Off On Gen Z For Constantly Picking On Millennials—And She's Got A Point

Comedian Iliza Shlesinger went off on Gen Z in a rant during a recent show for always mocking and criticizing Millennials, reminding them to 'never forget that we walked on Instagram so you could run on TikTok.'

Inter-generational conflict has been a staple of comedy bits for millennia. Millennials may have finally found their voice in comedian Iliza Shlesinger, 40.

In a clip from a live set that went viral on TikTok, Shlesinger expressed frustration over Gen Zers using the comments section on TikTok videos and elsewhere to relentlessly mock Millennials.


She wondered, hilariously, why Gen Zers don't see that their TikTok dances came from years of Millennials posting coffee pictures to Instagram.

Shlesinger encouraged the generations to stop bickering and to team up, instead. Both are struggling in a difficult world. And, she pointed out, the only reason the two generations are even fighting at all is because they are the only ones in the TikTok comments anyway, bar a few lurking Gen X-ers.

Really, what Millennials want is some sleep, not inter-generational cultural warfare.

Accused of avocado greed from one side and of "cheugy" behavior from the other? Brilliant.

There's clearly a reason this comedy bit went viral.

MAGA Voter Gets Epically Called Out After Saying She Opposes Polio Vaccine Because There Hasn't Been A Case 'Since 1960'—And She Still Doesn't Get It

A Trump supporter's faulty logic has social media users facepalming after she claimed she opposes all vaccines because there hasn't been a case of polio in the United States "since 1960."

Polio, a viral disease that may affect the spinal cord and cause muscle weakness and paralysis, was eradicated in the U.S. by 1979, thanks to a successful vaccination campaign. The virus has been detected in wastewater samples since; medical experts have expressed concerns that more parents are skipping routine childhood immunizations or using non-medical exemptions.

Trump Dragged After Attempting To Mock George W. Bush With Bizarre 'Mission Accomplished' Post That Completely Misses The Point

President Donald Trump was criticized after prematurely congratulating himself by sharing an A.I.-generated photo calling out former President George W. Bush for not finishing the job in Iran while claiming "mission accomplished" himself.

Trump's attack came as news organizations reported the U.S. military is experiencing a “beyond critical” shortage of advanced missile interceptors in Europe as a result of Trump's war with Iran. This development has raised wider concerns that NATO allies are potentially vulnerable to Russian aggression.

Carol Burnett And Luke Evans Lead Poignant Tributes To Tim Curry After His Death At 80

It's been a terrible week for the entertainment industry, for performers and viewers alike. Right after the world lost Dolly Parton, we lost the great Tim Curry, also at the age of 80.
