As introduced during BTS' 2021 United Nations Speech, COVID-19 has made the young generation feel like they're the 'lost generation,' a term originally coined by Gertrude Stein. From BTS' speech, "It was a time for us to mourn, for the things that COVID-19 took away from us, a time to discover how precious each and every moment we had taken for granted was."
BTS then propose the term 'welcome generation' to be more fitting to describe today's youth, a generation that embraces change and a generation that's characterized by extreme perseverance. "We thought the world stopped but it continues to move forward, I believe that every choice that we make is the beginning of change, not the end. I hope that in this new world we can say to each other: 'Welcome'."
The idea can also be connected to the South Korean N-po generation neologism. It describes the generations who gave up on n number of things, including relationships, marriage and children due to socioeconomic pressures. More modern n-po generations are said to be giving up even more things like hope, dreams and life. BTS has referenced it in songs like Dope and Baepsae/Silver Spoon.
"Instead of COVID's 'lost generation', a more appropriate name would be the 'welcome generation' because instead of fearing change, this generation says "welcome" and keeps forging ahead" - BTS at the United Nations
Commercials aimed at specific generations based on iconic images.
Ok I just saw MCGruff the crime dog in a Geico Commercial. This generation pandering is hilarious.
The act of a man wearing a strap on dildo on his forehead, as if to appear like a unicorn, laying on his back, while another man inserts the dildo into his ass and rides it, while being ridden the man on his back gives the dildo rider a hand job, and tongues his balls as they drop on his mouth during the dildo ride, and also jerks himself off during the entire process. Once both parties ejaculate, they mix the cum together and then the unicorn (man with dildo on head) swallows their combined loads.
Did u hear that nick gave dave a generous unicorn last night?
The 21st century generation of mindless, brainwashed imbeciles; with a primary concern of buying poor quality drugs and complaining about how shit their lives' are.
"The waste generation are going to cause the extinction of the human race!"
A response that must Imedatly come after someone shouts Hello there, such is The way

An uplifting, happy feeling that comes when your generator self-starts during a power outage.
We all felt true generator euphoria after the power went out and our generator automatically started while our holiday dinner was cooking.
