Generation X

A tech savvy generation with the unfortunate distinction of being born after the Boomer generation and thus having to suffer through the worse childhood of any generation.

Generally, for those who survived being spoiled rotten or beaten by their parents, they became happy, outgoing, and very innovative. For those who had to fight their way out they became leaders, innovators, and strong willed.

Criticized for being slackers but surviving the boomer generation would take the energy and initiative out of anybody.

Anyone born between 1967 and 1981.

Joaquin Phoenix, Kurt Cobain, Marc Andreessen,

Oregon Trail generation

Americans born during the Generation X and Generation Y (Millennial) overlap, generally 1977-1983. They can either be viewed as tail-end Generation Xers or very early Millennials, but some members prefer to be addressed as neither. Named after The Oregon Trail, an educational computer game fondly remembered by many born during these years. Also known as Xennials or Generation Catalano.

Person 1: "Are you a Millennial or Generation Xer?"
Person born in 1981: I'm part of the Oregon Trail generation.

Microwave Generation

Describing our fascination with instant gratification. Cell phones, txt/sms messages, and email.

As members of the microwave generation we have become so impatient, we find ourselves standing in front of the microwave tapping our foot yelling "Come on 15 seconds!"

Generation Y

Educated dishwashers.

Parents told them to educate theirselves.

Employers told them to go f*** theirselves.

Now that's what Generation Y is about!

generationalize

To generalize against a generation.

Don't generationalize, not all millennials are entitled, spoiled children.

ninja turtle generation

Those born between years 1983-1990, not later, maybe a year or two earlier.

It's no wonder the rest of the world is so fucked up, they weren't born in the Ninja Turtle Generation.
