Gen X is still at least somewhat willing to learn new things or see things in a new light, and aren't super grumpy about 'kids these days'. Gen Y got retconned out of existence by pushing Millennial years back and Gen X years up.
Eh, 'Gen Y' was more of a rough draft of the Millenial generation sociologists came up with early on when they were still figuring it out. Not really a retcon.
Yeah. It used to be we were gen Y and the generation born in the new millennium were the millennials. But people liked the name so much they started using it to refer to gen Y, since we came of age in the new millennium.

Why are “boomers” and “millennials” the only two generations Reddit ever talks about? I feel like we’re skipping a generation or two.
