Who do you suppose the teens/college age kids were in the late 90s early 00s were?


You are describing 2 different generations.

College aged kids = Gen X

Teens = Millennial

And it is because generation x only cared for money, they aren't religious, they don't value family, frick gen x, the medias hippie revolution had to raise your kids. What the frick did you expect to happen?



Gen X is generally more conservative than Boomers, and has a lower divorce rate.

Weirdly, divorce rates amongst married millenials are the lowest of any generation.

Generation X are the "scientist" who started the political climate change talk in the first place. You think this started 5 years ago? No, that shite started with your generation.

This isn't true. The environmental movement was already underway when most of us were born. shite, Earth Day started in 1970.

bullshite. A manual gives you greater control of the vehicle.

I agree with part 2 and 3, but you can go...over part 1 cause I got no clue who you are referring to.

You're the generation raising these millennials. What does that say about y'all?

I'm a younger Xer, my kids are 16 and 12 and I had then both by 25. Younger boomers and older Xers raised the millennials but half of us had nothing to do with that. The millennials were already being born when I was in kindergarten.

Wishing for the days
When I first wore this suit
Baby has grown older,
It's no longer cute
Too many voices
They've made me mute
Baby has grown ugly,
It's no longer cute

But I stay on, I stay on
Where do I get off?
On to greener pastures
The core has gotten soft

Look at us today
We've gotten soft and fat
Waiting for the moment,
It's just no coming back
So serious
About the stuff we lack
Dwell upon our memories
But there are no facts

As an early member of Generation X, I would like to take this opportunity to say that I'm not reading this entire idiotic thread.

I would also like to ask each and every one of you--Baby Boomers, Gen Xers, and Millenials--to stay the frick off of my lawn.

Now, frick off, cvnts.
