Then, they blasted your side parts.

They even had the audacity to cancel your sweet, sweet ankle socks!

And now, they're coming for "laptop purchases."

In case you didn't know, there's a widespread belief that big purchases must be made on a laptop. Examples of "laptop purchases" are plane tickets, hotel rooms, expensive electronics, or furniture. For clarity's sake, let's say a "laptop purchase" is anything over $300.

A tweet from Jessie Frazelle says, "Apparently, Gen Z is making fun of older generations for never buying big ticket purchases on their phone and always using a desktop."

The generational divide is real.

And this person straight up said the anti-laptop purchase mentality was "wrong," explaining, "Sometimes, websites are not properly designed to show all of the information you need to make a purchase on a phone."

Other millennials seem to agree with Gen Z.
