      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 we are adopting the ‘media culture’ view, then you need to at least be around 6 to start making the abstract connections necessary to make lasting memories about media.

            So in 91, some ‘90’s kids’ are turning six and able to effectively even be cognizant of a council, whereas some 90s kids are yet to be born.

            Or all generational cadres are made up arbitrary bullshit but if you watched Ducktales AND Rescue Rangers, and knew bugs bunny when he was still racist, then it is likely you and I will have a lot more in common than 90s kids who knew Spongebob and Blues Clues.

                For you maybe, for me that’s fighting words.

                NONE of you has had to deal with as many years of boomer bullshit as I have. NONE.

                You think shit’s bad for you now? Imagine turning 50 and being in the same economic position that all you millennials whine about. At least the economy has a chance to recover before you retire. None of my cadre have that kind of time left.

                Some older GenX did make their wad before things got bad but literally the 3rd month of my IT career when the dotcom bubble burst.

                If I could say to you what I really want to say, I’d get banned. If you’re brave enough come to my sub and reply to what I’m about to post.

                  Then you are the source of most of your frustration.

                  You think shit’s bad for you now?

                  I didnt say anything about anything.

                  If you’re brave enough come to my sub and reply to what I’m about to post.

                  Lol okay tough guy.

                  Chillout this is a meme thread. No one is talking shit about Boomers, Gen X, Millenials or Zoomers. It’s a comically inoffensive meme.

                    No, and just writing pithy things doesn’t make them true. Your life is a meme and you have forgotten how to communicate without them.

                    Lol okay tough guy.

                    What the FUCK is with all of you shitbags assuming my gender? I thought we didn’t do that here… Do I have to move over to Blahaj?

      Bro stealing the remote from your little brother who was watching doug to watch MTV was not being a 90s kid. You had punk rock, give us something.
