Once again, Gen X is ignored/forgotten.
We had better things to do than watch TV. We were all being beaten and molested by relatives.
Who chased us around with rolling pins trying to bake us into pies
Also the silent generation, since Tom & Jerry came out in 1940.
They can speak up for themselves!

You guys kinda are responsible for the internet, and that kinda ruined society, so...
The internet that we invented was a good internet. It's only later on it became a place for misinformation and adverts.
We see corporations fuck up this world more and more every day and yet the powers that be just let it happen. I dunno man. This capitalist democracy thing just ain’t working. Maybe it’s time to try something else.
Yeah... I'm on the older side of Gen X and I think I was 8 when the internet came out
What are you counting as Internet I'm a younger x and I remember bulletin boards till maybe mid to late 90s
