New Balance is in. OP is unc.

New Balances with the dad jeans is trendy-unc. The comeback was at its peak around a decade ago, maybe a bit less. White socks with the sandals were very trendy just a while ago as well though. I'd say the author of that site is definitely unc.

The real unc is non-trendy so therefore new balances are non-unc, which makes them unc

I thought Unc was Gen Z but the site claims Gen Alpha? Or moving the media generations overton window?

this is def alpha coded in my opinion - dad of both z and alpha types. we didn't hear about side parts -> it is not gen z

Um. I got 18 Unc / 82 Youth.

I'm about to turn 61. What is happening? (I guess that's a pretty unc question. Oh well.)

20 unc / 80 youth

Are you 20? I got 35 unc which is a few points less than my IRL age. I'm curious at what (if any) age the mean score skews to greater than age in years. I expect there are multiple brackets, the very young won't check off many at all but by some of the entries are sufficiently niche that when an octogenarian takes the test they won't hit more than 80% of the options.

I'm 38 but I spend enough time on the Internet and around kids/young adults

Rizz was definitely gen z as well as some of the other slang on here.
