we're simply the Best! :)

As a group, we are known as Generation X.

"Generation X" - basically anyone born roughly between 1965 and 1975. I just had to study this demographic for a research paper I wrote for school. Children of the 70s, teens of the 80s. The main idea of Gen X is that when they began to graduate from college- (early to mid 1990s) jobs were scarce (hence unemployed "slackers") and this is the first generation in the U.S. to not automatically do better financially than their parents.

Once known as cynical and apathetic, many Gen Xers have been late bloomers. The average age for marriage and having children has gone up since most cannot afford it in their twenties anymore. Returning home to live with parents until a career takes hold in late twenties is a new trend as well.

I have heard that after us is supposedly "Generation Y", "Generation Next", or what I like to call "People who hyperventilate without their cell phone" . I asked my friend who just turned 40 what he calls people in their 20s and he said "I dunno, I don't call them anything."

Well I always thought we were the shoot gun babies, i.e. dada got mumma preggies grandad showed dad the shot gun if he didn't do the right thing.
You hear all about the 60's hippy movement, vietnam, free love, magic mushrooms, lsd need i go on.
I think I stick with the fact that alot of my generation come from the free love era, mind you how many of our folks are still together?
