We had to do it the old fashioned way, taking a girl parking out in the woods, waiting until someone's parents were out of town and throw a party, or hooking up behind the gym after school. That and having to watch scrambled porn and hoping to see a boob. Kids these days have HD Quality free porn at their fingertips with their smartphones.

Good old days of whacking it to the spice channel and waiting 20 minutes for a nekkit picture to show up on the computer

I freaked out when my uncle had one of those fancy cable boxes and we could watch all ppv channels

I think it is basically, Do you remember living life before the internet and handheld cell phones.

I was born at the end of 1983 and I grew up with DOS, before WINDOWS, compu-serv, iNN, Prodigy, BBS's, and AOL 1.0 before the "WWW" (My dad worked at South Central Bell so eventually we had to get a 2nd phone line for the "internet" because back then the norm was to get online late at night, because you were too worried you were going to miss an important phone call tying up the line with dial-up, man has the world changed)

I've loaded X-MEN and Maniac Mansion PC games from 7 huge 5 1/2 floppy disks.

I also had a BEEPER in late middle school / freshmen year in high school because cell phones (read: huge nokia flip phones they weighed a shite ton) were still a bit too expensive. I think by my senior year I had a cell phone that was halfway decent, but texting was still rare.

I bought new albums on CASSETTE TAPES, I remember my first CD ever, I remember when the "mp3 player" came out before iPods (32MB of mp3s could be stored on it, WOW) I remember how much more amazing DVD's were than VHS, I owned a BETAMAX, Atari 2600, NES, Z-Cavereechies (sp) gibaud's, JNCO's in middle school, watched a friend get kicked out of school for good after wearing a trenchcoat not long after columbine, I remember being in the gym at career day on 9/11/2001 junior year when I heard news of "we just got bombed" , the Y2K scare, hypercolor shirts! I could go on.

I am NOT a millennial, I am GenX, but born in 83 I was the youngest with two siblings born in 79 and 78 so..

Its hard to tell, born in the 80s but feel like I don't match up well with either. I'm kind of just floating around in limbo and don't belong anywhere.

1946-1964 is the Baby Boomers

1964-1984 is Generation X

1985-2000 is Millennials

2001-xxxx is Generation 9/11

Born in 78. I am 100% certain 1978 belongs to GEN X.

Born 1980.. I don't recognize Millenial's as being part of my generation


No person with any sense does.

Millennial's are an awful, useless generation
