The older, but not the oldest one… Gen-X.

TropicalDingdong ,

Early millennial. Depped into the Navy about 5 months after 9/11.

Skua ,

Millennial. I do unabashedly love avocado toast and lattes and also can't afford a house, so I'm hitting the stereotypes

cant afford a thing and love some good toast with a latte too

HubertManne ,

apparently my high school epitomed the Xer slacker stereotype for the middle of it.. They have these signs along the fence listing accolades and awards for different teams and clubs. There is this gap that goes between the late seventies and the early nineties. Outside of that there is something for like every year. Then I know for my year there was a half hearted attempt at a 25yr reunion I think from pressure from administration to some of the folks who had been student council or such. Anyway it imploded likely cause folks like me said they would not go.

TootSweet ,

I’m on the older end of millenial.

This separation into "generations" is such bullshit. It's just another way to divide the haves from the have-nots. If you blindly believe that generations define you, you're the problem. You're making it easy to be controlled and find another person to concentrate on while your rights, your liberties, your opportunities, and your privacy get slowly taken away from you.

Gen X. Aka: The feral generation. We were left to our own devices and most of us turned out fine.

Now get offa muh lawn! shakes fist

You know what’s kind of funny. Both my parents identify as Gen X. Both of them are actually Baby Boomer’s. With the pre-requisite feral children. But I’m a millennial and it’s kind of funny that having grown up basically a feral child my generation doesn’t get to claim that.

Valmond ,

Same here.

ZagamTheVile ,

Same. Raised on neglect and hose water.

Sorry, can’t stay. The street lights just came on.

flambonkscious ,

That’s a great image, love it

Annoyed_Crabby ,

You call it feral, i call it free range.

Nikls94 ,

Huh… I never thought of that in this specific way.

When we were kids, and I was born 1994, our parents both had to work to acquire enough income to afford things, making us rely on ourselves. Parents did not pay that much for babysitters back then, no? And us kids weren’t being watched by GPS or something 24/7.

But it’s a tight window, and it depends on the family how long it stays open. I know some people born in 1997 who are like this, and others who aren’t.

Knowing about 2girls1cup, 1man1jar, that creepy car zombie coffee advert, other shock content… we were desensitised to gore and shock content. We played on MS Paint for hours.

Our parents did not know what we were doing, and it was… I’d say it was good.

Generation 4, Diamond was my first and my best friend had Pearl

Serious answer, I’m on the border between millennial and gen z

It’s Pokemon games.

apotheotic ,

As @Zagorath mentioned, its a pokemon thing. Those happened to be the current gen game when I was of the age of interest in them.

pedka OP ,
@pedka@lemmy.ml avatar

well when pokemon was popular i thought that anime was cringe so i avoided all of it back then

apotheotic ,

Fair enough, embrace cringe

Interesting_Test_814 ,

Hey, fellow gen4 here !

apotheotic ,

…are we about to kiss?

Interesting_Test_814 , (edited )

…what ? feels unprompted but…

apotheotic ,

😂

scytale ,

I consider myself an older millennial as people born until the late 90’s are still considered millennials.

Miellenial, right in the middle

atrielienz ,

Somewhat elder millennial.

Very tail end of Gen X.

vzq ,

Literally dozens of us

@grasshopper_mouse@lemmy.world avatar

Same. I like the term “Xennial” for those of us who were born I’m the early 80s. I definitely feel like I am both X and Millennial sometimes.

Monster96 ,

Some websites say I’m a Gen Z while others say I’m a millennial. So a bit of both

rand_alpha19 ,

I was born in 1995, people are split on whether that's millennial or gen Z. I guess I'll round up and go gen Z. I have siblings born in the early '80s though so I watched a lot of older TV/movies and used a few late '80s to early '90s toys, games, and electronics.

Semi-related anecdote…

During the debates my wife made a joke that Biden is so old he’s not even a Boomer. We then gave each other a look and pulled out our phones to check. Turns out it’s true, he is from the “Silent Generation”.

I think most of his cabinet colleagues wishes he would be.

My parents were too but they were anything but. 1920s and 1940s.
