Just tell them to send a Telegram. See who goes to the post office, and who types in the Russian instant messenger...
I'm sorry but i won't ever accept some things like those "challenges" that make people do idiotic things that might endanger their lives, or be seriously injured for the sake of making a viral video.
Of course there has always been generational gaps, this can't be avoided. But its a bit worse with those that did not embrace technology early, there is some people out there that barely watch TV, and never touched a computer.
There is also the culture as a whole. music, fashion, way of talking and spending time, etc.
If we are in the habit of segregating people by their decade, the millennials are 20yo and i have already read about the "alphas" (2010+) i don't know what they will call those born after 2020. It is very likely they won't get the millenials either.
Some think personal computers are going out of fashion in favor of wearable devices, and augmented reality. Just start imagining what sort of sub-culture these things will have. Think of glasses augmented reality vs people that have their face glued to a little screens vs those looking at computer monitors and those looking at tvs. Each look alien to the other.
The next century will probably look unrecognizable, in some things anyway. How did people looked at the future 100 years ago? Some predictions went hilariously wrong, and some were incredibly close.
