Funny Generation X Memes For Members of The Forgotten Generation

I recently discovered something I would have never known unless a Gen Xer told me. Apparently, the way that I watched Daria on Hulu was not how it was initially aired. In the 90s, the show wasn’t punctuated by the guitar riffs from the theme song but had tons of 90s hits courtesy of MTV. …

30+ Gen X Memes For Xoomers and Xennials

Gen X is a pretty exclusive generational club. It’s no wonder many stragglers who are technically baby boomers or millennials want to be a part of what Gen X offers. Take my parents, for instance. They were born in 1962 and 1963 and don’t want to be aligned with being baby boomers. I mean, who …

‘I have more money for my dogs’: Childless couples over 40 discuss if they regret not having kids

The decision to have kids or not is an incredibly personal one, but that doesn’t stop people from acting like it’s their business. Child-havers love to hound the happily childfree, pressuring them into making the same decision they did. What those people fail to realize (and this is a tough one), is that you never …

‘It has never been ok to show up to someone’s house completely unannounced ‘: Woman claims millennials killed community spirit, millennials fight back

People have blamed millennials for innocuous cultural shifts for at least a decade, if not more. They were such an easy target for so many years, taking up the «resident young generation» position with grace and dignity. Now, there are very few millennials who are under the age of 30, and Gen Z has usurped …

«You millennials were raised on time-outs»: Gen Xer attempts to start generational beef with millennials, fails miserably

Generational rivalries usually come out of some form of resentment. Typically, this resentment is that «kids these days have it so easy! Everything was difficult when I was their age, and now they don’t have to withstand any difficulties!» Every generation has it hard in a different way, and there’s no point in endlessly playing …

Gen X Memes For The Superior Generation Born Between 1965 and 1980

Not all generations have the bragging rights that Gen X has. I’m a card-carrying member of Generation Z, and aside from the novelty of being the current youngest generation with adults in it, there’s not much to brag about. My mom (cusp of Baby Boomer and Gex X) constantly says that Gen Z will save …

Gen X Memes For Those Who Remember the 80s And 90s

Nothing will make you feel old like new historical American Girl dolls. When I was a kid, the doll that was set closest to modern times was Molly, and she was ten years old in 1944. She was nearly the same age as my grandmother, whose childhood felt pretty far away. Eventually, they released Julie, …

30 Gen X Memes For 80s Kids And 90s Teens Who Were More Daria Morgendorffer Than Cher Horowitz

I’ve praised Generation X for their angst time and time again.

Gen Xers lived their teen and young adult lives in the …

Gen X Memes For The Middle Child of Generations

I am obsessed with Gen X angst. I believe that no generation of angsty young adults did it better than those post-Reagan/post-Thatcher 20-somethings in the early 1990s. This week, I watched two angsty British Gen Xer movies: Trainspotting and Naked. The former is much funnier than the latter, but they both convey that sense of …
