    The oldest millenials are in their 40s. Who is drawing these things?

      As a “Millennial” in the 40s, myself and others my similar age don’t ever seem to fit into the millennial category well. The start should be in the mid 1980’s not the beginning. Gen x seems more fitting for the early 80s. But the generation thing is kind of silly anyway.

        People born around 1980 are Xennials or the Oregon Trail generation. We’re kind of a blend of gen X and millennials.

        Hm I thought this whole time it was the mid decade like 85-94, 65-84. It is silly though, nobody has the exact same upbringing just because they’re born in a certain year.
