Gen X represent! Or if you are to believe a cola commercial I'm part of "The Pepsi Generation"
umikaloo
Am I Gen-z? Am I the problem!? Oh no! The diamonds, the coal industry! It was all me!
ClydeTheBelovedBandit
Who the actual fuck cares about gossip sites or any opinion site. Its just a bunch of dying sites trying to get clicks.
Gafftop
Don’t want to be treated as a kid? Don’t act like little kids. Just sayin. (Give me your downvotes for this comment - I don’t care)
Brandnewsecondhand
if you feel butt hurt by the older generation, your parents or make choices based on others...you give too many fucks and are not grown up.
potatoqueen
Millennial here. 26 years old, work 63 hrs/week on average, and my uncle still tells me I don't know how good I have it. 1/2
potatoqueen
At 26 he bought a house, had no college debt, started a family. Folk my age do it too, but all of his financial advice is dated 2/2
quixotegut
Sorry, but nobody born before 1989 should be called a Millenial. Kids who hit their 20's around 2010 are Millenials. Pre-89 = Forgotten Gen.
GlassCannon570
Generational boundaries are hard to define, such as when the millennial generation ended. Was it 1995, 2000, or 2004?
SendSurprisesToMyInbox
This is the most Tumblr fucking post of the day. I need to go shower now. Thanks.
Philosophyinateacup
Well I guess I would be an millennial then, just barely
Whydoesmylefttesticlesmelllikecheese
It's because you act like children >.<
GlassCannon570
We wouldn’t if we had money.
Whydoesmylefttesticlesmelllikecheese
Work?
GlassCannon570
We do that. Still don’t have any sizable amount of money, but we do work.
PaulHolioTheGreat
Gen X is the best!
ciscoak90
I'm 27 n I jus don't give a fuck about any of this.
Tombaugh
No one talks about Millenials in 2018 anymore. This point is good but about 5 years too late.
EIonMusk
According to Google, the millennial generation ended in 2004. The point still stands (mostly), just thought I'd point that out
stratus41298
The problem is that us 80's kids suddenly got lumped in with everybody else cus... Reasons...
Megadentron
I feel like this makes millennials sounds like children.
UsagiTheRabbit
Because the majority of folks that watch fox news are too old to give a shit about a 10 year difference. It's like an eye blink to them.
JonIsacLindberg
I was born in 1980 and are therefore either generation x or millenial. I (and all others born 1980) belongs to the kick ass generation.
lafemmenikita
I'm from '82 and although I recognise a lot of characteristics of millennials, I don't think I actually qualify
BiggieSmallsIsTheIllest
You're gen x
aGeographicalOddity
According to a friend who owns a small company, the generation in their 20s is basically useless when it comes to manual labour.
Kenona
None of this "gen x", "gen Z", "millenials" and shit means anything outside the borders of the US.
HonestlyNotARobot
Why would an adult care about this one way or the other?
AlwaysUpvoteHappyChickens
Marketing tactics, sociology, cultural trends
belgican09
Yes, because I am an adult and I care
GoldenRamoth
because different age groups from different eras like different things. It helps in marketing.
EricFromAccounts
Because when you identify a group, you create a scapegoat. And someone who you can feel superior to so you never have to change yourself.
StopAskingMeForAnAccountImgurIWannaLurk
That's what I've been saying but I've never been able to put it so eloquently before. Thank you +1.

They don't. Only kids care about this

INCORRECT
COTTONCOOKIECLICKER

spacecowboyein
How does the media even treat millenials like kids? How are we killing all these industries without buying power?
GipCee
This sounds like the whole, "There are more than two genders" argument.

What happens after Gen Z?
lordofcrappymemes
It’s currently undecided.
MrMcCookieMuffin
There's some talk of "Generation Alpha, Beta" etc iirc but it's otherwise undecided.
TheMightyElk
I was born in 1983 and if anybody calls me a millennial I'm just going to assume they want to fight. Kid I kid but if I remember correctly 1
TheMightyElk
The cutoff for. Gen y was 84?
warick
Nobody can agree, some say it's as early as 1980.
TheMightyElk
All lies lol.
warick
Exactly. My son's 7th grade teacher just told him they're all millennials. More lies.
M19u3lo
I will be 18 this November so am I a millennial or not?

No

MrStealYourGiF
Gen X here, honorary membership to anyone over 30 who used a VHS, cartridge based console or cassette/floppy computer and played outside.
Satherian
Shit yeah! I remember that stuff when I was little. Loved that old school tech
SoftlyInTheEveningDusk
Not 30 yet, but old enough to remember this part of my childhood and when the internet boom occurred. It changed everything.
kgbofficer
24, used VHS until about 2007ish and had dialup until around 2009/10. Couldn't afford more.
zioy
Done all but floppy computer and I'm pretty objectively gen Z - but I'm the youngest child by 11 years
aBastardNoLonger
I think most Millennials have done those things. I was born in '90 and we still had dial phones, black and white TVs, brick cell phones etc.
Cicilla
I remember my mom going from a pager, brick cell and the super small cell phone xD also the dialup sound
bookemdanno80
What about D'Generation X? /a/254cB

18 here, still use vhs and play outside . Had a sega for a while too.
jenileabedelia
I’m 28 I did all those up into my teens
TheMartianYachtClub
Millennials did that too though. Born in 92 and from a household somewhere within the lower middle class.
ANALOG2DIGITAL
Yes.... this.... this shit right here!
Belckan
Was born in 95. I did that. I recorded VHS. I blew my sega catridges, and copied games on floppy disks.
ballsohard2202
21 here, did all of those things. Plus, there isn’t a kid alive who hasn’t played outside unless they’ve got some real bad health problems
TheFartingUnicorn
Or their mothers force-fed them play dates like mine.
allegedlynerdy
18 here, I used VHS and floppy until I was 7 or 8.
PathologicalLiarAndInventorOfTheAlpaca
16, just got rid of my vhs player
kibbypie
1982. I grew up as Gen X. Now they cal me a millenial.
Raenon
Always the way with the cusp. Born in 83, was 18 when 9/11 happened and the world went haywire... that's the defining moment for Millenials.
BlackDragoness
kibbypie
I'm in!
Philosophyinateacup
Hey another 82 I was in boot camp when 911 happend crazy stuff
BelarusianPotatoFarmer
Thank you. 1982 seems to be the where the line was drawn for x and y. I consider myself last of the x.
LordElrond8
Born in '94 and did all those things... And some people consider me very old gen z :P
GoldenRamoth
Born in 92. Not sure if I identify more with gen z, or the 35 year old millenials. 'tis weird.
onlyhalfghost
93 but rural nowhere, so my childhood was pretty much still the late 80s for practical purposes. I'll take millenial.
GoldenRamoth
My parents never invested in tech until it was old and on it's way out. like always a generation late. But we always had it. so dunno.
onlyhalfghost
If you still remember a time when nobody in your neighbourhood had a cellphone (or better yet, the internet) you count too.

If a man builds 1,000 bridges and sucks one dick, they don't call him a bridge-builder.
ZeldaFanNr1
What is he sucks 1,000 guys’ dicks and build one bridge?
CyanideBreathMint
No truer words have ever been spoken on Imgur my friends.
j0hnan0n

I didn't know I'd been waiting my whole life for this.
PotatOSLament

fudgesickle
One of my bosses told me this 15 years ago. Love it!
lucivjov
.. they’d be wrong then.
serj730
As a 31yearold millennial. Who cares if you suck dick? Most millennials care about the bridges. Where are they? Are they convenient?
TheGalacticLeprechaunwithtinynipples
That sounds like the plot to an Oglaf.com comic
ComicallyLongUsername
Speaking from experience? Because I have a river that could do with a new crossing. And another thing you could take care of for me.
notinitforthepoints
Thanks, Confucius.
SickOfThisCessPool
You have to suck a lot of dick to get that many contracts to build bridges.
theDogter
I've built 2 bridges, but since I also smoke weed. I'm a pothead not a bridge builder.
Fauxcused
Except in the case where they said whose dick do I have to suck in order to get a bridge built here

shoutuckerfatheroftheyear
where do you think the money to build bridges comes from?
RTBackup
Gotta unwind somehow.
ThatTwerkingWhoreFromOliveGarden
What if you're $20 short from completing a bridge?
magila
(unzips) Get on you knees and I will show you.
GodsFoot
Getting contracts. Competitive business bridge building

The 35 million dollar bridge they are building in my town had 2 bids

Kinda does, one generation could be confortable with a low paying job in their generation while the other is still in debt working 2 jobs
torokunai
the baby boom was an IMMENSE expansion in births / year, mostly through the 1950s, at 4M/yr. It tailed off in '63, but their kids are Gen Y
Prineatrick
From a business standpoint, it can be helpful. Ex. Identify target market demographic or understand how to best manage a group of workers.
LithiumGrease
for real such a random distinction like who really cares!
Orcus424
Just another way to divide the people to keep them under control. 'Don't blame me, blame that generation.'
ballsohard2202
There are significant cultural differences between different generations. Look at greasers vs flower children.
CrissCross35
Using it to identify one person is pointless, but at larger groups you will see a difference between generations.

WabbitEars
From a marketing perspective there are massive differences in the generations.
AncientSeraph
Age groups, you're talking about age groups.Most meanings of the word "generation" coincide with that,but not in a named generation context.

That description has never made sense to me. I remember a time before internet and cell phones and I'm younger than '85 by a few year

It's not about just remembering, it's about when we became adults. Our entire childhood is on one side, adulthood on the other.
