[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Born 1987, and most millennial posts I reject as relative to myself. However I find myself closely relating to gen x posts. It could be different for me, as I was the "baby" in the family (until I was 15, anyways) my sister and cousins all being born in the late 70s/ early 80s. So having grown up with gen x could weigh on what "my generation" is[b]. I did however learn cursive in school, and never learned common core math, I have used a rotary phone, used a phone book, lived a childhood without a computer (until I was 8 or 9 and my parents got us a Windows 95), can remember all too well the sound of dial up, used an old school Polaroid camera, owned one of the "best" mp3 players that held a whopping 180 songs, recorded songs off the radio onto a cassette tape, had a collection of cassette tapes... [/b]Anyways, I could go on. I have done a lot more that gen x has than most "millennials" ever have. Born in the 80s, raised in the 90s. Maybe we are neither gen x or millennial, maybe we are our own breed. Maybe 1985-1989 is the "special generation" but if not a short, unique generational period, id much rather be considered a gen x than a millennial...[/quote]

My brother and I are ‘87 and ‘90, and all of this applies to us too. These aren’t uniquely Gen X. [/quote]
