Short of a birth year in their username, I'm not sure there is one. Almost everything in this thread is something millennials inflict on me daily.

This one has been easy for me lately: They spell 'lose' as 'loose'.

The way I try to reinforce the difference with people is this mnemonic device:

You don't want a loose noose - or you might lose the extra 'o'.

I do this. All. The. Time. Did it today. I tend to notice it and fix before send.

They're getting private messaged by YouTubers

Or a twitch streamer who designed his look off of the weird pedo dude down at the Batting cages.

They don't drink at all and they think consent is literally impossible after any amount of alcohol.

Their usernames are the random ones proposed by the platform, such as Lazy_Platform_34.
