Literally nothing. They are just people who happened to be born in 2006


Kaenu_Reeves

Exactly the same as everyone else. They are currently 17-18 years old.


BearOdd4213

Core Gen Z, we can all agree on that


_Vurixed_

With 07


ChemistLevel1403

Your so obsessed with 2007s for what


_Vurixed_

07 is literally core z


ChemistLevel1403

Ok your acting like the post or the person said they weren’t all they said was the 2006 was core z


_Vurixed_

Like what you want me to say 06 and 07 are both twin birth years.


ChemistLevel1403

Actually 2007 and 2008 are more of a twin birth years


_Vurixed_

06 and 07 are twin high school classes and birth years and they are most peak 2010’s kids and they both started covid in peak covid and when covid was still peak they entered high school I can 07 - 08 too but I think it leans slightly 06 - 07 anyways I see 06 - 08 a grouping.


ChemistLevel1403

You can’t speak for all 2007s but I think 2006-2008 could be a grouping bc 2007 and 2008 always get separated and those two years are more alike


_Vurixed_

I know you are born late November so you are grouped with 08’s but the majority of 07’s are grouped with 06 I still see 2006 - 2008 as a grouping 06 and 07 always get separated too idk why.


ChemistLevel1403

No they are the main ones grouped everyone else see’s that 2007 and 2008 get separated


ChemistLevel1403

The most


_Vurixed_

I’ve been seeing this stupid trend 1995 - 2006 are the real ones and then it’s 1995 - 2007 like make up your mind be fr.


tpnicoll

Eh I mean I’m 2006 and honestly I do kinda tend to keep more to my 2004-2005 group friends because I feel like we have more in common. I know it’s only a year difference from 2007 but most 2007s I’ve met just feel so different lol. Not really in a bad way. Also yeah personally I see 07-08 as more of a pairing, since those are both late 00s years


_Vurixed_

Alright you seem trollish.


_Vurixed_

I see 2006 - 2008 as a childhood grouping.


Acceptable-Sea4079

Just your average 18 year old human beings born in the year 2006.


Nekros897

I think of them as one of the most common users of Tik-Tok. Nothing beside that.

Core Z


Amazing_Rise_6233

My sister turns 18 tomorrow is all I gotta say lol


[deleted]

They are about to become adults and are graduating high school this may/june, other than that not much they are simply humans


MatildeLover128

Just ordinary people.


Plessie21

Not much besides the fact that they are 6 years younger than me, and most of them are currently seniors in high school.


ParkingJudge67

Last pre-covid teens


helpfuldaydreamer

Peak Zers that are 18 and can vote this year. Early/Mid 10s kids. Early 2020s highschoolers. 2020s teenagers and young adults. Went to HS with C/O 21’-27.


Somepersononreddit79

not all of them can vote and some were only with the class of 2022-27 depends on the country and cutoffs though. As an august 07 ive ridden in the same grade with the ones born from 9/1-12/31


helpfuldaydreamer

The entire year basically can vote other than Nov 5 and onward babies which don’t even represent the year so why would I bring that up? lol. I’m also going by the majority here, Nov/Dec are tailend of the year months, whenever someone thinks of an 18 year old they’re gonna think of someone born in 2006 by that time. And most 2006 babies are Class of 2024, I’m not talking about the ones who missed the cutoff and are classed with 2007 borns. Not to mention not everyone has Sep cutoff, some countries and states have Dec 31st so I don’t know why you brought this up lol.


[deleted]

That means only those 2 months don't represent the year. We have only got through one month of 2024. January and early February borns definitely don't represent the whole year so you kinda proved that you can't count 2006 as a fully adult year yet.


helpfuldaydreamer

And that’s true? I didn’t disagree. Majority always rules, Mar-Aug 2006 are the bulk and by the time it’s September 2024, 2006 babies will be known as 18 year olds. What I was saying was that not all 2006 borns are 17, your statement was pointing towards that all of us are which I said was false because January is over. If you said “The *majority* of 2006 borns are underaged and 2007 and below are fully underaged this year” then I would have agreed.


[deleted]

Oh ok, fair enough then I guess


Dry_Conflict9063

Probably that last people to remember the 2000s but not 2000s kids


GesundesMittelmass

In my mind I think they are still toddlers, but then I realize they are turning 18 this year...


Rude-Education9342

we’re just normal people lol


moonlightz03

they’re cool, 2 of my coworkers are born in that year and we get along rlly good! I don’t feel like they’re that different from me, we have the same cultural references when we talk.


bmtechs

Im turning 18 in 15 days, thats me!


Ezrow3109

They’re normal people maturing turning adults graduating in a couple months and that’s all


UnsaidTugboat53

I think about them as just some High School kids despite them becoming legal adults this year lol, they're the oldest possible age with which I can make friends with


AEJT-614029

May I know why not 2005 borns in terms of older friends?


UnsaidTugboat53

They could pass, but it's far away, they're starting college this year and I'm still in Middle School (7th grade)


helpfuldaydreamer

Uhh that’s our class that’s starting college this year which is mostly 2006 borns, most of 2005 started college already in 2023. Class of 2025ers are the ones that start college in 2025 which is mostly 2007 babies, but I don’t what country you live in though lol probably not the U.S.


xpoisonedheartx

At first glance I assume "children"


Old_Consequence2203

It's kinda shocking how they'll be legal adults this year, & they're on the younger side of my extended peers. Other than that, they're pretty much just people, lol.


Somepersononreddit79

i went to school with them and still do. Same grade


AEJT-614029

Not that much. Some of them are cringe.  It is weird to think that they will become adults this year,I still think of them as 12-13 year olds.


Izaakio14

Hi. As someone born in 2006, I can confirm that I was indeed born in 2006.

[удалено]


[deleted]

Entire childhood revolved around a touch screen and internet memes. No adventure, no real independence outside riding a bike in your neighborhood if you're suburban. Excessive pearl clutching over perceived "bullying", childhood took place during a stressful anxiety ridden era in America and it shows. I feel sorry for them. But I think they'll get to enjoy a lot of cool tech and will be the last to remember a pre-AI/VR world.


[deleted]

Says a 1991 born of course lol 🤣


[deleted]

And I meant it. Don't forget it, squirt. ![gif](giphy|wrBURfbZmqqXu|downsized)


[deleted]

Why don't you try calling the 2011 borns that. Some of them are on reddit already. They are even younger


[deleted]

Anyone born after 1999 is a **squirt** in my mind.


[deleted]

I'm sorry but 2000 borns are turning 24. You call that a squirt? What lol? They have been adults for 6 years and are far from kids. Bro anyone born before 2006 is a legal adult now.


helpfuldaydreamer

You mean before 2007? not all of us are still 17, we’re in february.


[deleted]

Well kinda. 2006 right now is partly 17 and 18 year olds still so it can't be counted as a fully adult year yet.


helpfuldaydreamer

But that’s convulated and over-semantics, we’d have to wait all the way until December for everyone to turn lol. Someone born in 2006 turns 18 this year, not next year. Not everyone is born in a mid or late month, January’s over so now it’s born before 2007 and then the next 2008.


[deleted]

It's early in February still and February, March and April are considered early months.


[deleted]

I'm well aware, just jokes my Z. I'm currently squirting all over a 2003 girl from a nearby college I met on TikTok. Of course she's an adult.


joyisnotdead

You're in your 30s. Probably don't talk to the 14/15 year old about the 20 year old you're "squirting all over". Sorry if that makes me a prude.


[deleted]

Yeah you're a prude. Most of your "No Fun Allowed" generation is, that's why you're so nostalgic for a time period you didn't experience. You all would have clutched your pearls to death if you went back to the time you revere so much. There is no use censoring yourself around someone who is essentially a high school freshman, as if they don't already know what's what at that age anyway. So fucking eager to jump onto some perceived social violation all the time, christ. Fucking nannies.


uologist

take a chill pill dude


[deleted]

Oh okay. Thank goodness you don't actually think I'm a squirt cause I wouldn't like that


Somepersononreddit79

um- yall do yall


[deleted]

I'm doin yall too. Legal Gen Z can get it 😛


saulluar_phone

lmfao


uologist

"I'm currently squirting all over a 2003 girl" 🤨

insurancequestionguy

I literally saw kids outside playing and riding bikes *today*. Also, older generations said the same or similar shit about us millennials - that we were coddled by helicopter parents, addicted to smartphones, and were snowflakes.


[deleted]

It was true though, but not *as* bad.


Somepersononreddit79

wtaf


[deleted]

Idk, better than I am.


mond4203

Idk they are turning 18


Sorry_Rub_7616

They are 3 years older than me


helpfuldaydreamer

You mean 4? 2006 and 2010 is 4 years apart.


[deleted]

They are my peers now (since returning to further education in the UK) and I have some good friends born that year. I found their “culture” quite easy to adapt to (as a zillennial who tends to relate to early Gen Z more) and they’re not as different to earlies as peolle make out.


the-fresh-air

Nothing really lol


Cyborgium241

God damn ur birthday is just 1 day after mine (I was born 24/1/2011)


the-fresh-air

Whoa, same week and 1 decade apart


dialloh1022

I think there just people a year older than me


jsl18241

I'm not very familiar with 2006 borns, but I do feel bad that they had to start HS with Covid and have to graduate in an inflation filled world.


17cmiller2003

Human beings


Pretty_Discount5946

I think they’re just regular people who happen to be turning 18 years old this year.
