    Some online culture thing was so prevalent that it can be abbreviated to “ytp”, clarified to mean “YouTube Poop”, and then explained what it came from…and I still have no clue what it is or was.

    And I was online those years too.

        That’s what I thought too. But it says “milennials”.

        I’ve looked at YTP videos now, and I would describe it as… You know the annoying videos that are funny “bEcauSE tHei err sOO raANdOme”? The ones with suddenly saturated audio, or annoying visuals, and/or repeats something 10 times in a row?

        Turns out that isn’t something GenX came up with, and YTP is the “millennial” equivalent / precursor.

          Younger millenials are basically gen z. The true millennials are the ones who are a very specific age, who can remember a time before the internet was widespread

              Right. So millennials that were born in 1996 have a VERY different experience from millennials who can remember 1996
