Get the internet generation mug.A generation of young men that were born in the later parts of the 20th century, and some in the beginning of the 21st century, known as either Generation Y or as Millennials. These are the men and/or boys that went through puberty with the modern day convenience of free, streaming pornography. This instant gratification has become a stable of most contemporary youth's pubescent lives, and the lives of all men today. Without access to all of the world's pornography, for free, at any given second, men would be forced to leave their house more often than they do now. Pornography is slowly wilting away the need for actual human interaction, and thus, causing some boys and men to become nervous and socially awkward around women. Though this is not a bad thing, as free pornography can never be, it can be a hindrance for some young men, and may not be conducive to their growth into manhood.
Young man 1: Why are you so awkward around Stacy, bro?
Young man 2: I dunno man, I was raised in the porn generation.

Following the power ranger generation of 1991-1996, this generation were born 1997-2000, and, like the ninja turtle generation, were a mixture fo buffering generations. Since teletubbies was an uninspired and directionless show, with no moral message or underlying message of any kind, and virtually no action, the kids of this generation are left fairly annoying little brats, who will be nice but rather lacking in depth.

Aren't Millennials but also can't identify with Gen Z Culture
Many similarities with the Lost Generation born between 1883-1900 who grew up during the aftermath of WWI and The Great Depression. Similarly the Forgotten Generation lived not only through the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the Great Recession in 2007, but also live in a post 9/11 America that is driven by xenophobia and fear of fascism.
The Lost Generation also experienced a rapid flow of new information just as the Forgotten Gen is experiencing now. The Introduction of many new technological advances is seen in both generations.
Forgotten Gen kids also can relate to the Lost Generation in the sense that they are skeptical of all authority, especially parents, as back then their parents were pushing for the prohibition of alcohol which can be seen mirrored today with the Forgotten Gen pushing for legalization of Marijuana, while our parents tend to be against it.
Many members of both generations have been known to reject more traditional ideas of proper behavior, morality, and gender roles. Both generations are considered to be “lost” due to the tendency to act aimlessly, even recklessly, often focusing on the hedonistic accumulation of personal wealth.
Both the Lost Gen and the Forgotten Gen started exploring its own set of values, ones that clearly went against what their elders had already established.

Get the Rerun Generation mug.A book of generalizations of the Millennial generation in the United States. Or more specifically, a book about a rise in ignorance and narcissism in society, pinned solely on the Millennial generation. While some parts of the book are informative in terms of digital learning, much of it's just a rant consisting of "Kids these days don't think like I do, therefore they're dumb."
If you want to see the train wreck that is "The Dumbest Generation" for yourself, and it's available at your local library, borrow it. Don't buy it, it's worth about as much as the Zimbabwean dollar circa 2008.
