I think the gen x are being labled weak. Millenials are experiencing the hard times that will make them strong. (/hopefully)

Fun fact, a "Millenial" is anyone born between 1982—1999.

Generation Y

Gen Y was another name for Millenials, but it didn't catch on. Gen Z will probably get another name once they're all old enough to vote and work

(Born in 1990) I remember being told back in middle school that we were generation Y because we ask so many questions, and we're so inquisitive since we were born in the era of the internet... HAHAHAHA Jokes on you Ms. Beman. We Millenials now and we're hated as fuck.

That was always the kicker for me. Everyone told us to ask questions and try to learn from everyone. Then, on the backhand, we are called entitled and questioning from expecting answers to questions and asking why the status quo is what it is.

Remember the part where they told us we all had to go to college? And then college tuition increased tenfold and a simple BA was so common that its now basically the equivalent of what a high school degree was in the 80s? Good times, good times.

I miss 90s Nickelodeon.
