Take it up with the Census Bureau, that is the only generation that they define. The Baby Boom didn't end until '64.

The Boomers raised the first half of the millennials. I'm Gen X and my oldest is 16.

The majority of millennials probably have Boomer parents. If you are in your 30s your parents are probably in their 60s unless they had you young.

That GreatLakes poster is going to be very very upset someone else started one of his generation threads.

Baby Boomers are generally the children of World War II veterans. My mother was born in '61 and is the youngest child of a World War II vet. Her eldest brother was born in '48. They are both Baby Boomers IMHO.

A 37-year-old today is not a millennial. A millennial is, unfortunately, someone my age but who is embodied by buzzfeed.

This is what truly divides the generations. If you've rubbed one out to a Cross-Your-Heart bra advertisement then you're allowed to call yourself a Gen Xer.

If it was still called Gen Y, no one would mind. But nobody on earth wants to be called a millennial.

WHoever did the naming didn't think ahead worth shite.

Gen X - cool, hip, whatever, uh-oh, 40 years later we have run out of letters!

Now what is the next going to be? Really-Post-Millenials or Generation AA?

The whole thing needs to be shifted 5 years sooner. I have nothing in common with smelly hippie assholes.
