+1 Millennials are weird. There's a large sub-segment that tries to be weird/quirky but in the same way everyone else on Reddit is (they were the people pushing mustaches and tacos on everything in 2013). Now, they're Disney adults, in a polycule, and/or doing Dungeons and Dragons and yelling about their "wifey", "doggo" or "hubs" on social media. They're mini-Boomers in the making. Then there's the younger millennial segment that makes their sadness or mental illness their entire personality and overshares constantly to the point that it's uncomfortable for everyone in the room.

They have small dick energy about being less numerous but also losing their cool. They were supposed to be the chill "Dazed and Confused " so called "slacker generation" that was going to change the world, but they largely fell in line and are middle management corporate drones who vote for Trump.

I don’t think so. Gen-X is usually not even mentioned in these stupid generation wars. I feel like Gen-X is very meh about things. Boomers were the hippies who were going to change the world but then grew up.

I work with every generation and this is a silly question. Jerks and annoying people come in every age. I’m a (younger) Gen-X.

That's a lie! They are experts at typewriters with carbon paper and fax machines. Their favorite communication medium is bicycle courier.


The Silent Generation and Boomers invented the internet.


Sort of. The Internet mainly passed by Boomers until they were forced to adopt it.


Boomers invented the Internet, you moron.


+1. You're thinking of Greatest and Silent generations. Parents of boomers.

I just now looked up as to why the silent generation (those born between 1928 and 1945) were called that. The internet says they were perceived as quiet and conforming, especially compared to the generations before and after them. It was also a smaller generation, with only 47,000 born in the U.S. during that time.

Now, they would be the silent generation because most of them are dead.

Gosh, I just found a macabre website called the "generation death clock". It ticks off the number of dead people for each generation. https://incendar.com/silent_generation_deathclock.php

Anyone who thinks "generations" all act the same across the board are annoying to me. I do not identify as gen x and I take people individually.

So you are annoying to me op because you believe in the generational 'war'. We are all human good and bad.

So I get a couple to make an offer. Mind you guy is only 29 years old and in perfect health. s

He and wife had a list of demands over the most minor things and so much they started contacted me directly. The final one was I am in DC 250 miles away with a new job and already selling house at a discounted price in mint condition. I go you want me to do a 500 mile round trip to do something that would take me five minutes when you are 25 years younger and live up the block. Long Long pause. Said will get back to me. His realtor calls me up and says yes they do or we have to find a new buyer. So I go on line. Issue was I left a small trampoline in yards. I get a guy who was confused on line. I tell him I have garbage pick up with a one day a week bulk pick up. Can you come to my house, unscrew a few screws and put the two pieces on curb for $100 bucks. He as like what. But did it.

Then buyer backed out or I got rid of him as he came up a new crazy list my favorite ICE maker not working. I flipped it off as house empty and told him flip it on and wait a few hours and come back. He goes can your realtor do that then text me picture.

I then dropped deal and sold to Boomer who loved it. He was laughing at story of small trampoline. He was like I would have kept it as I had grandkids and would have flip on icemaker switch. My realtor said Millenial deals fall apart all the time they are demanding, lazy and want it all and want it below market.


That isn't a millennial but cool story.


huh? Millenials are 84-2000. 29 is right there.


This is why these generation in-fighting posts are so dumb. No one can even agree what ages they encompass. Google says that it's people born between 1981-1996 for what it's worth, not 2000 which would be a crazy large age range. That still includes 29 year olds but barely.
