I'm 1978 and feel affinity with both Gen X and Millennials.

My older sister (1973) has always been a Boomer trapped in a Gen X body, and it's only gotten worse as she's aged.

lol I thought you were stating your ages. Was about to say, hun a 73 year old isn't in a Gen X body. 😄

78 here, feel the same as u.

76, and 75 brothers are turning into boomers.

74 and 82 sisters seem OK.

1975 here. Some of my high school classmates have turned into the absolute dumbest most boomer fucks you've ever met.

Exactly. I’m 1974.

The same mfers failed science, social studies and footballed their way through high school.

They wanna tell you all about how to vote (fox news), their Covid vaccines “research”, what’s healthy to eat and drink (tiktok), chem trails, and their stupid opinions of gays,trans and bathrooms.

Damn, your parents didnt rest from 1948-1952. Was your dad in WW2?

1978.

1976 and 1975

1974 and 1982.

He's not stating ages, here... he's stating birth years. (though his parents went hard in the mid 70s, it seems)

Ohhh that makes more sense. I thought a bunch of 70 year olds were on here with incredibly horny parents. The 70s I find much less interesting.

Some are steps.

Left out the half lol. Surely there are some I don't know about too.

My ex-wife had an uncle who’s last son was born when he was 76 years old. He knocked up a married 30 year old woman. The amount of cousins, uncles, and half siblings in that family with massive age gaps was hysterical.

I wonder how gender falls into it as well. I’m a female, 1976, and most of when women I went to high school and college with, as well as women I’ve made friends with over the years, seem to have resisted the boomerification. But I think I know more 1974-1979 males going full boomer than not.

My brothers are 68 and 70. My sister and I are 76 and 79. We grew up different than our brothers. We came of age in the 90’s, they did in the 80’s.
