What’s the best way to spot a millennial?

Is it the way they part their hair? Their choice of denim? An overuse of the cry laughing emoji?

All of the above might be true, but now, according to gen z, there’s a new way to work out if someone is a millennial: the way they wear their sunglasses.

Nurse and TikTok creator, Jordan Harper, recently posted a video where she joked that, while on holiday, she’d been ‘bullied’ for the way she was wearing her shades.

Demonstrating, she pushed her sunglasses straight up to the top of her nose. ‘The way I wear my sunglasses isn’t good enough for these people,’ she laughed.

Labelling it a ‘PR nightmare’, her travel companion, and crucially, a gen z, laughs that she looks like ‘the dad that wears a visor’ – and says that the correct way to wear sunglasses is ‘mid-nose.’

That’s right, it appears gen z are rejecting the whole point of sunglasses, and wearing them half way down their faces.

The comments became flooded with confused millennials who didn’t realise there was a ‘wrong way to wear sunglasses.’

‘I just put them on’, one commented.

Others were quick to point out that ‘mid-nose’ kind of defeats the point.

‘I actually don’t want the sun in my eyes which is why I’m wearing them,’ wrote one commenter. While another added: ‘Sunglasses actually have a function. The clue is in the name.’

‘Pushed up against your face is better at protecting your skin’, another added.

There were some, however, that broke the millennial mould.

‘I’m a millennial and have always worn my sunglasses lower’, one person admitted.

‘Brows always need to be showing!’
