to me it's wild they just jumped from baby boomers to millennials. you'd think there'd be a whole generation in the middle. alas
the boomers focusing on themselves and their kids to the exclusion of everyone else is incredibly on-brand
No we're their kids too. We're just the ones from the *whispers* first marriage
*gestures at four gen X half-siblings from a total of three holy blessed unions*
Yeah. Yep.
ok actually tho, my sister is gen x from my moms first marriage and im a millennial
Hmm ... I suspect you're their grandchildren. The ones they claim to love, but only see on holidays.
Nope! I'm older than a millennial
My apologies ... I had presumed you were around my daughter's age, who probably doesn't want me to mention that she's forty now.
And that bit of math demonstrates that jet lag has subdued my last firing neuron.
No need to apologize for thinking I'm younger than I am!! I appreciate that 🥰
Yeah; my mom's 77; her kid (me!) is Gen X. (1973)
It’s fine, it’s fine. We don’t like the spotlight.
Maybe we should call you…the silent generation?
That’s two generations older than me, so no. I’m having a hard enough time with my mortality as is.
If you fear death it means you have a good life. Think about that instead 😊👍
We Gen Xers would expect nothing less, it's our brand!
We are sneaky that way. You can get away with a lot if nobody notices you.
Gen X says OK, WHATEVER, NEVERMIND
I mean, speaking for myself. I’m ready to step up, but I’m told you’re supposed to be elected or something.
that’s what you get for drinking from the hose
probably bc the hose water is full of chemicals, jerry
delicious life giving chemicals!!
As a member of the micro-generation between, I am pleased to announce that as a child I once got an infection from a mosquito bite I incurred the same day I was playing by a creek near some very rusty sewage lines. two unrelated facts, I’m sure of it
The lead in the hose is what made the water taste so sweet!
there's this big spot between. you could mark it with, say, two lines at perpendicular angles to one another
that's a joke, ofc, who'd ever do that
Unfortunate side effect of this.
Ah fuck it knicked me (32 in the chart)
There was but society divorced them so they became an ex-generation.
Honest question, how much do you feel Gen X proclaiming apathy as their cultural identity played a role in them always being overlooked?
That’s a very non-gen-x question. We choose not to comprehend bye
I always felt the Gen-X apathy was a reaction. Oh your not going to let us have anything? Whatever we didn't want it anyway.
well yeah it's a generation named after the symbol for crossing something out
Lots of loud crying for attention from Gen Xers
Might want to get help with that.
Not boomer or millennial but a secret third thing
stop telling people that I'm dead
Did the streetlights come on? Is someone calling us Gen-Xers in?
Shush. Nothing to see here. Move along.
SSSSHHH! They can’t see us if you don’t mention us!!
