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!"

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.

Sandwich Generation

Those Baby Boomers sandwiched between the need to care for their dependent children and the responsibility of caring for their older parents. As noted by social researcher Mark McCrindle (www.mccrindle.com.au), this sandwich generation arises from the combined trends of delayed childbirth, the delayed financial independence of children, and the increasing life expectancy of the older generation.

"Still caring for kids and have your parents living with you? That would make you and your husband members of the Sandwich Generation."

Offbeat Generation

The Offbeat Generation is a loose association of like-minded writers working across different styles but united by their opposition to a mainstream publishing industry driven by marketing departments. The term was coined by Andrew Gallix in 3:AM Magazine in February 2006 -- as a pun on the Beat Generation (see: beat poetry) but more likely to be associated with the Chemical generation immediately before it (who were anthologized at the Repetitive Beat Generation also).

The Offbeat Generation plays a large part in the e-zeitgeist.

I Was Born In The Wrong Generation

Comments Kids type in that you'll find in popular 21st century VEVO Music Videos such as Justin Bieber, Taylor swift, Katy Perry and many more . What It Means is that they wanted to be born in the 70s, 80s, and 90s cause they think that back then, The 70s, 80s and 90s had better music like Pink floyd, Nirvana, Green day and all the 90s rock band. But If they were born in the generation they wanted to be, There will be no iPhones, Good tablets and Call of duty.

Annoying 11 year old: I was born in the wrong generation, Katy Perry music is awful, Green day is much better. Why don't we have that today?

Edgy teen: Guess what, WE DON'T CARE!
