What about those conceived in late '79, but born in '80...

They're the youngest Gen X'ers who technically lived in 5 different decades

Question for those born in 1995-1997(cusp of Millennials and Gen Z).

Do you associate your childhood more closely with Millennial things like Blockbuster, Jimmy neutron, Recess, The Weekenders, Invader zim, Gundam wing, Yu gi oh, PS1, PS2, Pokemon Gens 1-3, Gorillaz, Discman, Malcolm in the middle, Cyberchase, Tamagotchi, Osmosis Jones, Kim Possible, playing outside, remembering 9/11, and having crushes on Avril lavigne, Britney spears, Jenny wakeman, and the Dark magician girl?

Or Gen Z things like streaming movies on Netflix, CN Real, Hannah Montana, PS3, Wii, Xbox 360, Bakugan, The Dark knight, Pokemon Gens 4-6, Justin Bieber, Twilight, Chowder, Marvelous misadventures of Flapjack, Adventure Time, Silly bandz, not playing outside, not remembering 9/11, and having crushes on Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus?


I bolded my childhood.

I was born in 98.

Yep. It's because we came of age during NWA and the expansion of black culture.

I was born in '97, and I associate with most of what you have listed under Generation Z, however, I remember 9/11 and also associated with shows like Kim Possible,Cyberchase, Jimmy Neutron, and Recess.

I guess you could say that I've associated with a little bit of both generations.

There are no precise dates for when this cohort starts or ends; demographers and researchers typically use the early 1980s as starting birth years and the mid-1990s to early 2000s as ending birth years.

This is dumb. I was born in 86 and am technically a Millennial. If you grew up in the time of walkmen and no internet, you are Gen X in my opinion.

Regardless, be happy that you were born during the 90s and 00s. The things you'll get to see late in life will be amazing. Plus, time flies by like you wouldn't believe. I was 22 about three months ago, but I woke up this morning 45. At least I could have sworn it was only three months ago.





Feels like I just graduated college.. and now I'm 29? Not sure how that works tbh. Mortality blows.

And here we go, millennials declaring themselves not millennial Bc of how they feel. Everyone wants to get into the Gen x group.



I think there are some good reasons to that, though. The concept of generations exists to group people together by common cultural traits and behaviors of that group of people. I think the thing that defines millennials most is growing up with internet connections and cell phones. I was born in 1987 which technically makes me a millennial, but when I grew up we didn't have an internet connection or cell phones. We played outside and grew up much the same way Gen X did. Maybe it's because I was always around my sister is 10 years older than I am and is Gen X, but when I reflect back on my childhood I feel like I grew up like a Gen X kid and not a millennial. Or at least maybe somewhere in between.

I just think that culture is rapidly changing at such a fast pace that the concept of generations is becoming more and more obsolete.

other than blockbuster, britney spears, and tamogotchi, these are all very late year millenial things and probably bleed into the gen z kids too.

Currently trying to bone a chick born in 95. This bitch mainly texts through snapchat and sends me selfies all day. Not sure which category that falls into.
