How do you recognize the ultimate millennial?

Girl who drinks coffeeMillennials (also known as Generation Y) were born between 1980 and 1995. Anyone who is currently between 26 and 42 years old can therefore call themselves a millennial. This term sometimes causes confusion, especially since there is now a lot of talk about Generation Z, born between 1996 and 2015. This is the generation that grew up with a smartphone in one hand and an iPad in the other. Generation Y, on the other hand, experienced all these digital developments, but had to make do as a child with coloring books and playing outside. Poor millennials.

I myself come from the year 1995, so I can just barely count myself among the millennials. But how do you recognize a millennial exactly? I've listed that below.

The ultimate millennial today:
1.   Is totally overstimulated and actually prefers to move to a cabin in the woods, but still lives in the big city (due to the fear of missing out on anything).
2.  Has an electric bike.
3.   Wears sand-colored Birkenstocks.
4.   Practices yoga and has at least one meditation app on his/her phone.
5.  Only drinks natural wine.
6.   Lives above his/her means and is therefore always broke.
7.   Pays at least a thousand euros in rent.
8.   Regularly orders a matcha latte.
9.  Is lactose intolerant.
10. Prefers not to eat bread, with high exception a slice of sourdough.
11. Snorts coke on the weekends and compensates for that during the week with celery juice.
12. Regularly takes a shower or bath according to the Wim Hof method.
13.  Orders food about three times a week.
14.  Complains about almost every (small) setback.
15. Likes to work from home or anywhere in the world.
16. Therefore values freedom highly (not to be confused with laziness).
17. Sells every trinket on Vinted for top dollar to earn extra money.
18.  Then spends it on expensive chicken-avocado sandwiches and bubble tea.
19. Is committed to the earth, but takes a flight sixteen times a year.
20.  Is simply never satisfied and always strives for more.
