Well, this is false. I mean, I realize this is what you think, but it's likely a you problem. Food board?

Anyone who claims this just wants to be Gen X

78 so the last of the Gen X. There was a time when they called us Gen Y. Generations evolve and are defined retroactively and in the 90's there was talk of a generation born between 70-90 that would be called Gen Y. Obviously, that later went away and the line was drawn at 1980 and Gen X/Millennial survived but there is definitely something to the Xennial generation.

Sorry about hurting your feelings. I don't remember it, but sorry nonetheless.

So that's Gen X behavior?

A kid born in 1979 did not graduate in 1988

Sorry dudes, meant 98! Gen X ended with those born in 1980.

A kid born in the early-ish to mid-90s didn't just have different cultural preferences than a kid born in the early-ish to mid-80s; they grew up in a completely different world.

Just depends on how you were raised. I was born in 1993 and most of the kids I grew up with didn't just get on the Internet whenever they wanted, or have video games, and that type of thing, so we were probably more similar to kids in the 80's than kids in the 2000's.

My dad was kind of old school though, as were many of the parents of my cohorts, I didn't get a smart phone until I was 18 (2011).

You were one of a profoundly small minority that had “unlimited” internet access in the early 90s

No one cares that you were working on computers in the 70s

Joshjrn is correct in pointing out that you’re being pedantic
