Subject: Gen X: the Whiny Generation - Artical from 1993
Written By: exodus08 on 06/16/19 at 4:51 pm
Here is an artical on Gen X from '93. Millennials are the target and after it'll be Gen Z's turn.

So basically Boomers just hate every new generation, while every new generation hates the Boomers. Gee, I wonder what the problem here is.

Pretty much! The boomers will point the finger at the Generations after them. It's just so hard to read.

That author must be happy inthe00s wasn't a website in 1993. He would have easily been the most infamous generationology poster with how worked up he is getting over the topic ;D
Well, enough is enough. As a baby boomer, I'm fed up with the ceaseless carping of a handful of spoiled, self-indulgent, overgrown adolescents. Generation Xers may like to call themselves the "Why Me?" generation, but they should be called the "Whiny" generation. If these pusillanimous purveyors of pseudo-angst would put as much effort into getting a life as they do into writing about their horrible fate, we'd be spared the weekly diatribes that pass for reasoned argument in newspapers and magazines.
lmaoo damn who hurt you ;D ;D ;D

Hehe! It's like a whole generation killed his cat or something. He got himself worked up for no reason.

We Boomers hated the generation that came before us too. You know, the one from the 50s with all the racism, misogyny, homophobia, xenophobia, etc. that we tried to put an end to. Unsuccessfully, as it turns out. They didn't much care for us either. Sent a whole lot of us to the slaughter in their little endeavor in Southeast Asia.

I like how even in 1970 people complained that women have "too many rights". Some things never change. ;D

Each generation looks down on the one that comes after them. Nobody likes being old.
On a side note, my favorite entertainers are Generation Xers.

Unfortunately, growing old is something we all have to deal with one day in our lives.

Oh, for some reason I thought you grew up when “Madonna” and “For You” were in record stores and “Off the Wall” was the best-selling album in America.
