Welp. The coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic has been going strong for a month now and shows no sign of ending any time soon. That has meant huge changes in the daily lives of millions, including working/attending classes from home and social distancing by observing a quarantine. For some people the biggest challenge of being quarantined during the pandemic is isolation and loneliness, but others have the exact opposite problem: They’re quarantined with their parents.
They’d love a little isolation.
Needless to say when several very different generations are cooped up with each other for an extended period of time there’s bound to be some inter-generational tension. There’s also bound to be plenty of boomer vs. zoomer hilarity, as the following posts prove.
Here’s how Millennials and Gen-Z’ers quarantined with their parents are doing… so far.

When this quarantine is over, I hope my parents know/understand that I will NOT be at home for the remaining of the YEAR God bless

“Oooooh look at me I’m in quarantine with my boyfriend I’m getting loads of sex, getting drunk an baking loads of nice food” shut the fuck up and have a little bit of respect for the ones trapped here with our parents arguing over fucking mayonnaise

Has anyone else gotten a headache every single day of quarantine or is that just my body reacting to being stuck in my parents house?

my parents quarantine daily schedule:
– empty the dishwasher very loudly & wake everyone else up
– put on the news and get scared all morning
– contemplate buying more groceries even though we have enough
– put the news back on then get even more scared
