What Generation are you?

They forgot 2013-____.

2013 - 2025 trey were calling "Generation Alpha" and they didn't forget it, I didn't post it because it's irrelevant, no one who was born in 2013 or more recent is doing a poll here at JUOT.

Similarly there were a couple generations older than the oldest one I included.

Wondering ("Wandering", for those in Rio Facebook ) with what sort of cliche the post-2025 era will be named...

"Generation Trump Junior"?

Whatever it's called it will be in Spanish.

I'm Gen X.

Millennial had generally been defined by anyone that graduated high school after the turn of the century, so those born after 1982. But, as someone already said, they are constantly changing the date...

I was born in 1/81. I see Millennial anywhere from 1980 to 1982.

I prefer to be part of the "Oregon Trail Generation."

Pretty spot on... except for the bit about becoming obsessed with celebrities and music.

Also stole it for Facebook.

I wouldn't even answer this question. Just a way for folks to bitch about a younger generation.

Like people haven't been stupid about celebrities and music for generations?

Gen X or Xennial. Born in 78 and both apply somewhat. Shit, I didn't even have a cell phone until about 21 or 22 because no one else did either.

I thought 75-85 was Generation Next?

I'm amused by the borderline Millennials that want to be considered Gen-X. So much so that they make up new "Xennial" designation so as not to be completely Millennial.

It's because the late Gen-X and early Millennials grew up different than either generation...

We’re an enigma, those of us born at the tail end of the 70s and the start of the 80s. Some of the “generational” experts lazily glob us on to Generation X, and others just shove us over to the Millennials they love to hate – no one really gets us or knows where we belong.

We’ve been called Generation Catalano, Xennials, and The Lucky Ones, but no name has really stuck for this strange micro-generation that has both a healthy portion of Gen X grunge cynicism, and a dash of the unbridled optimism of Millennials.

A big part of what makes us the square peg in the round hole of named generations is our strange relationship with technology and the internet. We came of age just as the very essence of communication was experiencing a seismic shift, and it’s given us a unique perspective that’s half analog old school and half digital new school.

We were the only generation to have a balance of technology and old school horse play. The internet wasn't real life to us, not until we were adults.
