Stop the presses: I'm a Millennial

by Blake Sunshine on February 24, 2010

Pew Research Center just came out with a quiz that helps you find out if you are a Millennial.

And, stop the presses, I am one:

Even though I clearly am a Millennial, the quiz doesn’t really ask the right questions to determine this. For example, having tattoos and piercings doesn’t make you a Millennial. Having contacted a government official in the past month also doesn’t make you a Millennial.

Anyway, take the quiz and let me know your score in the comments. Are you a Millennial?

My millennial score was 85. But I’m not sure why if I had watched less than an hour of television in the last 24 hours my score would have gone up. Since when do millennials not watch tv?

Millennials do watch TV, but not as much as other generations. You can see tv watching time spent in hours by generation here: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gZWmOwjiUgc/SR2Q3yXJz9I/AAAAAAAAAUU/ccHewxo0lFQ/s1600-h/Nielsen+minutes+by+media+by+age.jpg

I’m sad to say I am a 46. I guess I need to get a tatoo! You know me well to know that in spirit I’m 100% millennial! (If only I could spell it correctly.)
