All I hear about is “boomers” this, “Millennials” that, “Gen Z” that, etc.

Why no one talk about Gen X? What happened to them? They just vanished like in Infinity War? Or are we mistaken Gen Z by Boomers?

    This is all beautifully stated.

    Gen X is the end of SLC Punk. “I’m not selling out, I’m buying in.”

    (the ball that the millennials were sacrificing their own fulfilling lives to be able to hand off to them)

    OOF. Hits hard.

      For those who don’t know, SLC Punk is a movie worth your time, especially at a certain time in life. The spirit is great, but… Stevo is an Xer who ultimately did go to Harvard and dad and mom are boomers (The boomers turned from hippies to yuppies in the 80s).
