Goblin Academia had me in STITCHES, no cap 😂😂 BY THE WAY: An entire generation having vernacular based on a video-game-streaming platform (twitch) is wild to me. As a gamer, I've been part of the twitch community since 2013. One of the original twitch emotes--Kappa--is one of the original twitch mod's face, and using it became synonymous with "im fucking with you" or "i'm joking" like literally 10 years ago. Gen Z has shortened it to Kap (cap) or no Kap (no cap). The wild part is that this old lady has been using the EMOTE in the same context for a fucking decade and there are so many young Gen Z'ers who probably have no idea it originated on twitch as an Emote. Okay, rant over. LOVE you two and LOVE rude review 💜 xoxo

[@virginiacreager4331]

Perfect descriptions 👌👏

[@Anna-wo9gb]

A lot of those words come from gen alpha. Skibbidi and gyat, off the top of my head. The work ethic thing is mostly because genz are young. Look at other generations, when they were in their early twenties, they probably were not employee of the month. The difference is that genz has no issue leaving a job if the environment is off. A lot of the slang does come from AAVE, and stan is from eminem but it was popularized by kpop (kpop stans, stan loona, etc) Seeing you with your two sisters does confirm that there are archetypes of sister trios: the somber one, the hyper one, the chill one. (Finger heart) from a 23yr old genz in IT (the eldest, chill sister)

Thank you for bringing back Elizabeth. I love her and I love you both together. I am a Gen X mother of two Gen Z's. I found this hilarious... and I recognise some of the language use. I have to say I love the Gen Z's. Like many of you Millenials, they often seem very self-aware/self-reflective or maybe it's just the ones I know. I think you missed the androgeny , gender play and gender awareness aspect of the Zs and the affinity with queer culture/ ideals ( again maybe just my experience.) Thanks for another fun video.

[@goawayfarm7165]

I am also a Gen X mom of two Gen Z kids and many Gen Z friends - you are right - their approach to gender is revolutionary and breathtaking, but also very much hearkens back to us in the early 80s - one of my daughters has short hair and wears men's suits, like Annie Lennox. Both of my kids identify as queer and so do most of my young friends. I learn from them every day and I love them all. I think the best thing that Gen X did was make Gen Z :-)

Wait a minute. I’m a boomer & I know what Shazam is. It’s great for classical music. I’m checking out those towels too.

I paused the video a few mins in (just after finger "half heart" part) as I had to go somewhere. I looked out the window of my car and saw a, I guess Gen Z-er, arm in the air, enthusiastically pumping the pointer & middle finger "half heart" at someone somewhere behind me. I have never felt so connected to a youtube video before.

[@fireinateacup89]

Here for the edgy devil-may-care vibes your sister is giving. (I'm a Millennial but apparently Gen Z has rubbed off on me. 😛) I feel like any moment she might go full cat and knock something off a table because she's bored and can't be bothered or harassed into performing. Loved it! 😂🔥

[@sazennonumber]

I'm 55 and I laughed so hard a few times. I personally love Gen Z and I get how they don't want their value defined through how hard they work. I'm just not sure if I ever want to fly on a plane, b/c I'm not super-confident that the plain has been carefully prepped for a flight. Oh, and I LOVE their openness and appreciation for spirituality and astrology. ❤

Congrats on your 100th + 1 video!!! Your sister's celebration style is familiar to me (iykyk) so I wanted to say: You are an amazing creator, your work is fenomenal and it IS a freaking BIG deal!!! Well done making us smile 100 + 1 times ☀

[@BrightNexus410]

As a gen zer and part of your community I gotta say Caroline is one of the sisters/friends I wish I could have had in my life because we always learn so many cool and interesting things, keep up the great vibes and congrats for the 101 episodes of your identity shared with us ❤, oh and happy new year from Greece.

Elizabeth defines ‘Tomato Girl’: “Try to look as much like spaghetti sauce as possible.”

[@Swimdeep]

Gotta get her book…btw, I’m Generation Jones.

[@kjmallyon4745]

As a Gen X, all of those clothing and hair styles are all just recycled from the 80s and 90s. Gen Z will one day feel the way we do about them. Excellent video, you two are great and I'm going to get Elizabeth's book for everyone in my family. Good job to Mama and Papa Winkler for producing excellent humans. xx

[@biancagonzalez7647]

BIG congrats to your sister for the success of her book! And congrats on 101 vids!! :)

[@tanyaskopitz8921]

How great! Absolutely love when you have Elizabeth with you. And thank you, Elizabeth, for pointing out that stupid hand claw gesture! I couldn’t figure it out either, wtf?!? 😆

[@coffeecakes1]

More Liz please! I love her raw disgust. It's so entertaining!

[@kirstenglae]

I’m a gen X girl, with a gen Z daughter (she’s 20), and another gen Z daughter (she’s 11, so on the cusp of gen Alpha). I will say, it’s very fucking confusing. Such is life. 🤔 BTW, Elizabeth has complete and total gen X energy. There is no denying that.

[@NutsaChubinidze]

I have so much fun watching your videos because it feels like I'm watching my family members in sweatpants rant about fake stuff on the internet. Also, Elizabeth...I can only imagine how many sister fights you must be having daily. The struggle she had to name her flaws is crazy. Push her to do it, lol!

[@franew]

Love videos with the two of you!! P.s. I bought my mum Elizabeth's book for christmas and she loooved it!!

[@Intervain]

omg that's so funny, I've been following you for a while and didn't put two and two together that she is the writer Elizabeth Winkler. I've recently read your sister's book [because the topic interests me] Loved it too! I knew I've seen her face somewhere before and couldn't place it [Mark Rylance interview] Such a small world indeed.

hell yeah, a rant video with Elizabeth.

[@pamelapetrosino4437]

I’m all here for Elizabeth! When the two of you do these kinds of videos, it can never be a fail. Pure entertainment! So happy for Elizabeth’s book success, and your 101 video. Btw, it was so cute when you included Julia. Now, all we need is Luke!

[@zvezdoblyat]

I'm Elizabeth but Gen Z. I hate it here 😭

[@Caroline_Winkler]

hahaha im so sorry. you can hang out with us any time

[@pman2916]

I'd love a video of you and all your siblings, talking about a similar topic or a video of your opinions on designs..title it Yay or Nah..I love this video of you two. Both my kids are Gen Z, they're both married and have loads of kids, even with this fact, they know all these acronyms that confuse me😅 But my kids don't have the "lazy" traits Gen Z's are known for.

[@Caroline_Winkler]

I love the idea of an all-sibling video. Yes, so much. I'm on it!

Thank you, Caroline, for bringing us together.

[@jillradcliffe1648]

Actually thought this would be lame. I was wrong. And Julia? Adorable. At 67 I am old lady-child core rendering me truly ridiculous in most social situations. Truly love this channel. Keep going. I’m here.

[@juliedehalleux373]

I have the feeling that you and your sister Elizabeth live in Gilmore Girls world... You got Lorelai verbal repartee and Emily taste in interior design and Elisabeth has Rory dream job and Paris Geller personality. Anyway, I love your channel, watch every single vidéo

[@ombrenue4674]

ahahaha YES !!!!

[@SamediDeNovembre]

AGREE

[@alyssaoconnell8174]

I’m a semi-recently new gen s follower of yours and this currently has me cackling on my couch-

[@Hunny98]

Anytime I see a video ft Elizabeth I click so fast. What a cross over episode that you also had baby sister join too!!! Hahahaa love this🩷🖤🤣😂

[@KateCarew]

Just happy to be here on time for once!! Adore you in all your iterations. And you’re right, we all suck, forever and always. And yeah, Elizabeth is the perfect foil for you. Love the dynamic. She’s so funny with the deep snark❤
