so if not for that he’d still be hovering in the “normal” range of 0-6

Ah yes, I’d forgotten about that episode. 18 in one go is quite something – he certainly knew what he was doing there.

I kind of want to see a generational breakdown of historical bans. Who takes the cake so far? Actual boomers? Gen X? Millennials? Zoomers? Gen Alpha? The Interbellum Generation?

They’ve had more time than the rest of us tbf.
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:39 (three years ago) link
I would say Millennials, but then I think Gen X is only 1962 - 1977

Interminable, even. But then again
I mean LJ and Whiney were both born after 1980 and they've got at least 3 each
― sarahell, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:41 (three years ago) link
You were right the first time.
X starts in 79/80, I think (speaking as someone married to someone too old to be a millennial).
― seumas milm (gyac), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:43 (three years ago) link
Can’t argue with that.xp
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:43 (three years ago) link
I think of X as 1965-1980, more or less.
Sorry X ends, I meant. Tbh being born in 1981 being a millennial is taking the piss imo.
― seumas milm (gyac), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:44 (three years ago) link
millennial begins in 1986. 1981-85 is a zone of nobodies and ghosts
― Chip-vill-A (imago), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:46 (three years ago) link
xp the whole "when is Gen X" reminds me of that Mr. Show sketch where Bob and David argue about being of different generations because one of them is 3 years older than the other (or something like that) ...
― sarahell, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:47 (three years ago) link
It’s so weird though because millennials span like 1981-1996 and I tend to think of myself as worlds apart from someone who was born in the 90s (absolute babies, obv.).Xposted from the US pol thread lol.

― pomenitul, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:51 (three years ago) link
this is how I break it down:
Boomers: 1946 - 1961Gen X: 1962 - 1977Orphans of Generational Ret-conning: 1978 - 1983Millennials: 1978 - 1993

Generation X was first applied to the current generation in 1952, and people finally twisted the spigot closed in the mid-90s.

maybe it's my Americanism here -- but I feel like someone who did not spend their teen years with a Republican ass-clown President is not really Gen-X. On the other hand, I feel like I've posted this same thing a half dozen times and don't want to die on this pedantic hill

Millenial = people who reached majority in the new millenium, so 82+

why are you all taking these labels seriously? they are a way to understand large groups of people and have much less to do with individual people.
