But do you act like a millennial?

I took this quiz (http://pewresearch.org/millennials/quiz/index.php), and got a 72...which means I don't act like one.

How did you score?

88... same as the year I was born....convenient

I got 28. Thought that was really low until I saw some people get in the 10s!

So true. Well, in general that's a fairly good indicator of how many "millenials" live though. We seem to be heading towards using more technology or certain technology more often, and becoming more liberal.

My score is 36. I'm very 'liberal' so the fact that I read a newspaper must be dragging down my score.

Or I'm secretly a 45 y/o.

We were trying to figure this out at work (the whole company is between 23-27 years old). I've got a tattoo, piercings, watch TV, use a cell phone, aren't religious and am considered liberal.

I don't play video games and I don't text frequently...those are the only things I can think of that makes my score so low.

I got 39, closer to Gen Xer than anything else.

Seems to be because I haven't played a video game in the last 24 hours, I haven't sent a lot of texts in the last 24 hours and my parents are still married.

I suppose some days I'm more millennial than others.

pretty arbitrary quiz. Tattoos and piercings? That's irrelevant.

Or questions like the one about religion. I guess if you say it's not important you're more "millennial"? What if you're wiccan or zen buddhist or some other alt religion?

The question about mixed marriages is confusing. When you put "good for society" it gives you a higher score than when you put "doesn't make a difference". But I'm pretty sure the latter is the most progressive view.

I assume it's more "millennial" to have contacted a government official? What does "government official" mean? Isn't any civil servant a government official? Like I've yelled at a cop but I don't think that counts...

Also the straight shot "are you liberal/conservative" question is dumb. As if people weren't liberal in the past? I would bet that the student population in the 1960s were on average more liberal than the student population today.
