What\u2019s the best way to spot a millennial? <\/p>\n
Is it the way they part their hair? Their choice of denim? An overuse of the cry laughing emoji?<\/p>\n
All of the above might be true, but now, according to gen z, there\u2019s a new way to work out if someone is a millennial: the way they wear their sunglasses. <\/p>\n
Nurse and TikTok creator, Jordan Harper, recently posted a video where she joked that, while on holiday, she\u2019d been \u2018bullied\u2019 for the way she was wearing her shades.<\/p>\n
Demonstrating, she pushed her sunglasses straight up to the top of her nose. \u2018The way I wear my sunglasses isn\u2019t good enough for these people,\u2019 she laughed.<\/p>\n
Labelling it a \u2018PR nightmare\u2019, her travel companion, and crucially, a gen z, laughs that she looks like \u2018the dad that wears a visor\u2019 \u2013 and says that the correct way to wear sunglasses is \u2018mid-nose.\u2019<\/p>\n
That\u2019s right, it appears gen z are rejecting the whole point of sunglasses, and wearing them half way down their faces.<\/p>\n

The comments became flooded with confused millennials who didn\u2019t realise there was a \u2018wrong way to wear sunglasses.\u2019<\/p>\n
\u2018I just put them on\u2019, one commented.<\/p>\n
Others were quick to point out that \u2018mid-nose\u2019 kind of defeats the point.<\/p>\n
\u2018I actually don\u2019t want the sun in my eyes which is why I\u2019m wearing them,\u2019 wrote one commenter. While another added: \u2018Sunglasses actually have a function. The clue is in the name.\u2019<\/p>\n

There were some, however, that broke the millennial mould.<\/p>\n
\u2018I\u2019m a millennial and have always worn my sunglasses lower\u2019, one person admitted. <\/p>\n
