There are a lot of factors, but I think '84-'85 is a more appropriate cut off.
Born in the early 80s . I remember reading/watching/hearing things in the 80s that labeled me-by my birth year- as generation X.
FWIW these mentionings were accompanied by complaints very similar to those leveled against millennials nowadays.

I was born in 81. I identify as X but it's a weird spot. We were the laSt group of people to go to school without the Internet and remember the cold war. We came off age after 9/11. I think people born between 79 and 86 are a generation unto themselves. I've heard it called the Oregon Trail Generation
Born in '79 and feel the same. We were raised to live in a world that no longer existed by the time we graduated college.

So i grew up thinking I was generation X.
Hell, I didn't have a cell phone or an email until I went to college.

I've always thought the generations ran more in 18 year sets (ie, when the oldest of that generation came of age at 18, a new generation could conceivably be borne of them.) Google agrees- says boomers are 1946-1964. This means X is 1965-1983.
There's always commonalities from the beginning of one generation with the ending of another though.

I was born in 86. I absolutely do not identify with millenials. Being born in 1986 compared to 1996 is completely different culturally and technology wise.

It really does have to do with your influences and way of thinking more than the firm year. This shite isn't a new car model year changeover. It all is fuzzy on a continuum with a few milestones that can help define eras. The parts were not suddenly different when they started the 1986 baby models.

Born '82 and always thought I was a Generation Y'er

Generation Y and Millennial are synonymous

I'll end this debate.
Did you Jack off to a single picture of Jenna Jameson'S tits that took a good 5-10 minutes to download?
Yes?
You're not a millenial.

Millennial, but could see the Gen X argument if he has older siblings.

Gen Y was the name for Millennials before the latter name took off.

I'm an 86 kid as well, and I consider myself a Millennial. I think this generation could honestly be split in two (early/late) with the dividing line around 1989-90.

I was born in 83. When I was growing up my age group was referred to as generation X. I thought that sounded pretty cool. Then all of the sudden the last few years I'm told I'm a millennial. frick that bull shite.

I'm an '84 kid and do not consider myself a Millennial.
As a little kid, we did not have a computer. We got one when I was in elementary school and did not have the internet until I was in Jr High. Then, it was dialup to Prodigy. I remember waiting 10 minutes to see a picture of a Ferrari F40 come up line-by-line. I didn't have a cell phone until I was a Jr in high school.
So I literally experienced the changover in eras from the pre-digital to the digital age. I can well remember what it was like before and during the process, which a millennial can't.
I grew up on Cosby, Full House, PeeWee, Mr. Rogers, watching This Old House on PBS with dad, wishing they'd let me watch Cheers with them, etc
My childhood was much more outdoor-focused than kids are today, even though we lived in the burbs. My brothers and I and the kids on our street played outside all day. Riding bikes, sandbox, playground, boonie tromping in the woods, skateboards, goofing around down in the bayou. I fondly remember taking my BMX out by myself to go to the ramps with my Walkman on and listening to Alice in Chains and Soundgarden that I had recorded to a casette from the radio broadcast. That's not a millennial memory. That's a Gen X memory all the way.

person born in 1981 is a Millennial or Generation X?
Yes. 1980-2000 is Gen Y (Millennial) and it means all of nothing. Gen X, Gen Y, all that shite is manufactured garbage made up by marketers.
Posted on 4/3/16 at 8:55 am to Hugo Stiglitz
Millennial 1990 on

That attitude clearly marks you as a Gen Xer. You can't escape your cohort buddy. You are a product of your times. But you display just enough of a paranoid skepticism to be a Gen Xer.
