Kids no longer drinking, fighting, stealing as much

My generations stole enough of the Satanic Panic momentum to make up for this generation's lack of proper young people behavior. We had Marilyn Manson telling kids to worship the devil, MTG teaching us how to summon demons, eggs for brains, and Judas Priest telling us to go kill ourselves.
Sorry Millennial and iGen, we Gen-Xers had to take all that deviant behavior for ourselves, sucking it out of many future generations to come! :p
So you stole all the thunder???!! No wonder I had to pick up the slack for my generation!!

You're not Gen X, though. You're a Millennial. Generation X was born from about the mid-1960s to the late 1970s. They would've been in their early 20s to 30s in the '90s. They were the grunge and Bill Clinton generation. The Millennials start being born in the early 80s. You were born in 1986 or so. I'm a Millennial, too, born in 1989.

What are you saying? If people feed the alligators ,they may forget how to hunt for their own food and eventually bite (off) the hand that feeds them? Surely you jest.:rolleyes:
It is often disapproved of because animals can lost their fear of humans and become dependent on them.

The actual age ranges will vary from sources (It often goes to the mid-80's for Gen X). I go from the moon landing to the fall of the Berlin Wall (69-89), as that was it for growing up without a cell phone, without a computer, and even before commercial internet. I can say I remember when things like Communist and Socialist were "bad words." But, that's another discussion.

I've never heard it go into the 80s for Gen X. Going by that, Kurt Cobain isn't Gen X and he's the icon of that generation.

It typically goes:
Baby boomers are now in their 60s and 70s.
Gen X are now in their 40s and 50s.
Millennials/Gen Y are now in their 30s and 20s.
Gen Z is in their teens now.
 

Twilight Hue

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Was on the news that kids seem to be behaving differently than other generations here in my country. What's up with that? I guess I'm getting old, don't we get the right to go "these kids are worse than my generation" like the generations before us... it's now the kids who are amazed how much their dad's generations spent time being wasted.
They are too busy trying to outdo each other on social media or trying to make a living on YouTube to bother with anything else.

Quite often it does. As I said, it really depends on the source (I've even seen the Millennial age pushed as far back as the 70s). Myself, I draw more from the cultural difference between the last to grow up without computers and cell phones and the first ones to grow up with them being common.

Well, I'm going to have to disagree because it doesn't make sense to me. I'm definitely not of the same generarion as someone who was in their teens or 20s in the 80s. My oldest sister was born in 1971 and we're not the same generation. I understand "millennial" as meaning a person who came of age around the millennium.
