The Bionicle Generation 

Children (mainly 2000s kids) who grew up with the Bionicle toy line. They also remember the movies and video games associated with the toy as well.
I'm a proud member of the Bionicle generation because Bionicle is one of the best kids toys ever made!

The Star Trek Generation 

People who grew up watching Star Trek during the mid 1960s. This was during a time where the technology back then wasn't as good as it is now so Star Trek was one of the only things that kept them the most entertained because of the futuristic elements within the show in which they envisioned the future to be like.
My grandpa is part of the Star Trek generation. It was one of his all time favorite shows.

Epic Animation 

Any animated TV show or movie that focuses on action, adventure and epicness rather than comedy.
Avatar: The Last Airbender is one of my favorite epic animations from the Western world. It's rare to find Western cartoons that focus more on being epic rather then pandering to kids with immature humor that adults wouldn't take seriously.

The Narnia Generation 

Any child who grew up with The Chronicles of Narnia books and movies in the 2000s (mainly the live action movies which gave a bit more exposure).
There were so much fantasy themed generations in the 2000s like Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and The Chronicles of Narnia. But which one I'm personally part of is the Narnia generation because I have the most emotional connection to the Narnia books because they were my favorite novels growing up.

The Nirvana Generation 

People (mainly Generation X that is) who grew up listening to Nirvana (the most famous grunge band in music history) during the 1990s.
I'm so glad I was part of the Nirvana generation because I saw Kurt live years ago and he really knew how to put on a show. R.I.P. Kurt.

Generation Generalization 

When one generalizes an entire generation without knowing the fact that not all the people within a specific generation fit most negative stereotypes about them. This is especially used against the Millennials and Gen Z'ers.
Non-Millennial: All Millennials are so PC it hurts.

Millennial: Uh, I'm part of Generation Y and I don't even give two shits about political correctness.

Non-Millennial: Really?

Millennial: Yeah. Instead of going with generation generalization, how about we all just stop generalizing the hell out of different generations and actually work together to make this world a much better place for us to live in.

1980s Hipster 

A hipster from the 1980s decade (and yes, they actually existed).
Some wrong generation kids today complain about hipsters without realizing that 1980s hipsters existed. In fact, hipsters have been around since the 1940s.
