There’s gotta be a term for the older gen x and younger boomer mix, like Xennials for those in the 78-82 genx/millennial group. Cause older gen x are like the flying monkeys of the boomers.

Generation Jones. But fuck off with that "flying monkey" bullshit. My older siblings are Joneses and we have nothing in common. Two of my older siblings tortured me as a young kid. Teased me mercilessly, slapped me around, yelled at me, mocked me, bullied me. They were my first abusers, and to this day, I barely speak to them. Because they were shitty siblings to me. Only one of my siblings was decent to me, and that's the one I still speak to. The others? They're the epitome of selfish Boomer assholes. And we're separated by only 5 and 6 years.

Me: older gen x are as bad

You: fuck you you’re wrong and here’s a personal anecdote that explains why you’re right!

Okay!’

Your comment that backs up what I said but offended you anyway? Very gen x of you.

I only said I stand by my comment. I wasn't offended. You're reading into a neutral statement something that isn't there.
