Boomer dropoff confusion

So many people think Gen-X starts in 1964-65 and that this is because it is when thedemographic baby boom dropped. But this is incorrect. There are scientific charts and graphs which PROVE that the baby boom officially ended around 1960, when that big high line in the birth rate graph suddenly takes a DIVE. It didn't start to dive in 1964, it started to dive in 1959. It's like watching a plane crash. It didn't happen all in one year and it didn't happen in 1964, and it most certainly marked the end of the baby boom. Although the official "bust" arguably occurred around 1965, it makes no sense to classify someone born in 1960 as a baby boomer---or some OTHER generation---solely on the basis of this much perpetuated----and unending---baby boom drop-off confusion. The Generation Jones issue does not help to address this issue, in my opinion, except for MARKETING purposes perhaps. The younger half of Gen Jones (1960-1964) is, ultimately, the first wave of Gen X---the leading edge ---and not culturally different enough from those born between 1965 and 1971 to be considered a different generation.
If you think you are a Boomer because you were born in 1961, you are suffering from Boomer dropoff confusion. The cure for Boomer dropoff confusion: look at pictorial graphs of birth-rate changes.

im so confused

"I'm so confused" or rather "I'm like, soooooooooooooooo confused" is a common attention whoring tactic used by all teenage girls over 9000 times in an internet year. It is used and abused as a lame way to excuse their violently stupid behavior or misunderstanding of the most simple of concepts, such as meaning what you say and saying what you mean. In other words, it is the perfect statement for girls who just have to have it both ways; it's a way to ask a stupid (or painfully obvious) question without the guilt of admitting that they're a fucking retard. Many cases of "confusion" surround pregnancy issues, resulting mostly in teen mothers.
"My BF and I did it w/o a condom and he pulled out but now I'm all fat and I haven't had my period in like eight months! Could I be pregnate?! im so confused!!!"

Thorndike Confused Cat

Based on the seminal psychological experiments by the eponymous scientist, the phrase has come to indicate a situation in which a straight man, traditionally equipped with a thorn-like tongue stud, provides such explosively exciting cunnilingus to a lesbian that she questions and/or reconsiders her sexual orientation.
Phil: Yo Tawd, did you end up scoring with that short-haired hipster chick last night? We all thought she was a lesbian!
Tawd: Turns out you guys were right, but after a good 'ol Thorndike Confused Cat last night, she stuck around for pancakes and buttsex this morning!
Phil: Dude, the final frontier?! Awesome!
Tawd: Yep. Pretty awesome.
