I can confirm this is inaccurate. I was in a class of 93s and 94s and we were told by our science camp councilor that we were not 90s kids, but 2000s kids. That was back in 2005. The 2000s hadn’t even finished yet. So shrink that first range to at least 1981-1989 and extend that second range to at least 1990-1996.
To me, being a Millennial to me means you remember 9/11. If you don’t, then you’re Gen Z.
The Oregon Trail generation might remember Challenger and the fall of the Berlin Wall and Rodney King, but not Reagan being shot.
Just got off the landline with the Gen X Council, turns out you haven’t payed tour dues in 10years, so they’re going to have to revoke your card until payments have been sent.
I’ve never considered myself Gen X. I’m think I’m among the earliest scouts of the Oregon Trail generation. Definitely don’t remember Reagan getting shot.
What if I don’t remember 9/11 (because my teachers and parents deliberately didn’t tell me what was happening) but remember the Oregon trail?
wouldn’t you remember a weird couple weeks where all adults were acting incredibly suspiciously
Yeah but it wasn’t until like a week or so later they told me what happened and I was too young to really understand so it didn’t really have much impact.
Being an elder zoomer be like:
As a late GenX 90s kid: Fuck you for forgetting us AGAIN.
Yeah, but as a member of Gen X, we’re the last to be able to own property.
Swings and roundabouts, innit?
Sure that’s possible for older GenX.
Xennials like myself had barely a few years (in my case months) before the dotcom bubble ruined our one generational leg up.
If I had been smart and dumped IT and went back to school for writing, I’d probably have a house, but stupid autistic me wanted to fucking be a computer person…
Tech pays just fine. Maybe not as much as being a lawyer, but there are people who make £50-100k per year working in tech as programmers, engineers, or professors. That’s a reasonable salary for most of the country. I know there are people in America making way more, though that does have to cover health care.
But this specifically is calling out getting the title of millennial, why would you expect gen X to be a part of the meme?
I’m not trying to start shit, but wouldn’t all people who were 90’s kids start the council at the same time due to how time flows?
If you’d stop being the majority of conservative social media personalities we’d stop trying to forget you, you Charlie Kirk looking goofy motherfuckers.
The years are wrong. To be a 90s kid you need to be born by 1991.
Typically being a 90s kid means you experienced the 90s during your formative years. Not that you were born then.
