99-00 was the best. Yahoo personals were free and full of housewives. And Aids stopped killing everyone.

And really there’s a subset of millennials born in the late 80s that straddled the tech gap.

That is the thing though....for most late Gen X'rs (those that were born towards the end of that generation)...these hacks apply mostly to our teenage years (not our childhood) and older. Put up a bunch of 80s hacks and those apply to our childhood. There is the difference
Hot nonsense

The only thing that surprised me on this is they made mini keyboards with only ctrl, alt, and del keys.

. You mean the generation that hasn't done anything. The generation that lived in their parents basement then makes fun of people living at home with their parents.

"Here's the thing, if I'm older than you, I was older at any given point in time."
Most of these apply well into the 90s. The oldest millenials were 17 in 99. Printing mapquest directions was a thing in the early 2000s. Hell, most of them apply to boomers, aside from the video game and other uniquely childish activities.
GenX has almost nothing for itself. Thanks for the dot com bubble, stupids.

1 was city national Bank. 504-387-5411 in Baton Rouge. Also another gen x life hack if you need to know the time and weather.
Anyone remember the number you could dial that when you hung up would call your number and the phones would ring, then when you picked up was a test number and would read out your phone number in a robot voice?.
We used to frick with people so hard with that. We used to make up crazy arse stories and scare people saying ppl were tracking us, etc, and like clockwork the phone would ring.
"Dude pick that up, they found us, they traced our number!"
Watch the person pick it up, the number is read, and their mind=blown. Great party trick at other people's houses
If you could work it into a scary story in the middle of the night 10 points
I know someone knows what I'm talking about,
Ahh the perks of Dad working for South Central Bell, I also had an orange linemen phone I could do cool shite with

I’m 32 and won’t ever identify myself as a millennial

Don’t mind being called a millennial. Still know everything listed in OP from my teenage years

Xennials. We basically fall in between genx and what people consider millennial.

I've always thought of decade related memes. Like memes for the 80s.
