Corrugated-sheet-generation

Describes mostly older generations (boomers and older) who have difficulties adapting to modern society with its changing values, new technology and younger generations.

Origin:

Borrowed from German "Wellblech-Generation" (literally: corrugated-sheet-generation)

While boomers still tend to name millennials "generation Y" (modest reference to themselves), millennials fought back, and renamed the older generations.

It refers to a parable about the difference between the generations: "While we millennials and younger build real houses, they boomers and older still build theirs with corrugated sheets only."

You're so outdated, you clearly belong to the corrugated-sheet-generation.

Why would you not care about others? That's totally corrugated sheet like.
