Gen Z is the new Gen X, lol. People just skip over them.

Can confirm, Gen-X here. We're all either Boomers or Millennials depending on whatever is coming out of our mouths.

To all that noise, I say: Meh, whatever.

I was born in 1980 and have never known what generation i am. Meh, whatever. (Am i X now?)

1980 is the youngest of gen X, according to most definitions I’ve read. It’s also The Oregon Trail generation, which IMO is the perfect label.

Not that any of these generations or age cutoffs are real things, of course.

Then I'm definitely The Oregon Trail generation.

No, you have dysentery!

Gen Z are millennials without the beginnings of joint pain or basic knowledge of internet safety

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

To be fair, I've met a quite a number of millennials who don't know what internet safety is, either. Some barely know how their magic typing box (read: computer) works.

I always assumed the tail of gen x and the head of gen z was included in “millennials.” TIL that’s not the case

We’re called Xennials. We had an analog childhood with a digital young adulthood.

I was born in ‘84 but I count because we were poor and I was playing ColecoVision in the 90s

I was born in the late 90s but didn't get high speed internet (had dial-up ethernet growing up), wifi, or cable until the mid- to late-2000s.

Aye...the Oregon Trail generation.

The collapse is imminent, and y'all doubting it are gonna be sorry you werent as anxious as I was the whole time waiting for it. Living as if you haven't nothing to worry about tomorrow, how do you get through the day?

Is that helping?

That's their point. It's millennial sarcasm: indistinguishable from actual sentiment, that way they can deny they mean it.

Shut up, this is getting too real
