eryone below 24 or so should be in it. Today's college generation. I think people in their early 30s are technically millennials, and while my generation is certainly a little hand wringing and PC, we did not have this SJW shite on this magnitude
I can agree with this. This current crop of 18-24 year olds is just different than those who came before and are in their 30s and 40s. To be honest, they remind me of the boomers when they were college age.
And for the record, I was born in 1970 and thus gen. X.

Born in '86 and I relate to GenX WAY more than millenials

I think you mean using a card catalog system. Libraries still use the Dewey Decimal System. It's just accessed by computers now.

I like to think there was a generation in the middle between Gen X and Millennials. Some people call it Gen Y.

Drop these people off in Bangladesh, Myanmar or uptown with no cell phones, no money, ipads, etc and let them fend for themselves.

Born in 96 and we used the Dewey decimal system for a good bit before it was scrapped. So I'll have to disagree with this given my peers' actions.

Hell, I operate a graduate school level library, and it's been classified by Dewey for its entire history. I ain't changing it, it works, my folks find everything they need to find.
As has been mentioned, if you mean an online catalog as opposed to card catalog, you've got a better point. Some people were just as fast in a card catalog as any online catalog!

That would be those born 1983-86, so yes.
I was born in 1984, a great fricking year. If you are going to shoehorn me into being a millennial, then I am going to pull some millennial shite and tell you that I do not identify with being a bullshite, pussified, snowflake millennial.
frick millenials.

And here we go, millenials who don't IDENTIFY with being millenial. They FEEL like they should be Gen X or maybe make up some other generation label for them.

Agree. It's a relative term with no objective meaning and it doesn't resemble my peer group.

i took this to mean, that while rape me the worst thing that any one individual may experience, it may not be the worst thing one may experience. I don't think this in any way trivializes rape or negates the trauma of the experience, just that there are worse things that could happen.
