I was born in '81 which is only sometimes part of the millennial age range and never part of the gen x age range.

I was '83. Last I heard, we're referred to as "xennials", but I always called myself an "elder millennial". People need a label for everything, I suppose.

I prefer the term Oregon Trail Generation.

I put myself in the elder millennial window too. I think the divider for elder and not is that I remember when we got a computer and Internet. Younger millennials don't remember not having it, or at least not having Internet

But it's all just Hokum trying to pigeonhole everyone into neat uniform experiences

I agree with this.

My first computer was a 386 running Win3.1 and DOS. I sometimes ask, "Do you know what an AOL installation CD is?" That, most of the time, let's me know who was when.
