it’s funny when people who don’t agree with some dumb overly-broad generational label decides that they need a new one instead of just saying “lol I guess I’m not millennial prime, this poo poo is silly anyway” nobody agrees with their generational label that’s how dumb overly-broad labels work

mystes posted:I can no longer imagine living in a world where when I can't get to sleep I can't just pull out my phone and start looking up different types of living and extinct otters on wikipedia (although it might be a better world). The internet was out here for a day when i had my nephews here, so i pulled out a big-rear end "canadian" encyclopedia i use to flatten out sheets of paper. That day i learned Men Without Hats of Safety Dance fame were Canadian. I always figured they were Australian or some poo poo because the song is so loving dumb, but there it was, in an entry longer than that of Canada's 50th largest city, was more than i ever wanted to learn about Men Without Hats. But i also learned that day that there are Cattalo, also called Beefalo which is a mix of a Buffalo and Beef Cattle and both of those things are delicious, so a cross between them must be even moreso. Like a "you got peanut butter in my chocolate" type situation, only more of a "hey ed, your buffalo is loving my cows again" scenario.

aight gently caress it, it's generationchat time I do not remember the end of the soviet union, but I do remember gulf war I. I was old enough to understand what a big deal 9/11 was and to understand (in outline) what a bad idea the Iraq war was if you hate iranians, you probably shouldn't gently caress over the guy who is like their neighbor/major antagonist

prisoner of waffles posted:aight gently caress it, it's generationchat time I remember GHWB becoming president but not anything about the election, most of what I remember about the USSR collapsing was that they were partying in Berlin on the TV and sawing that wall down, but then I made some cool friends in school who'd come over from Greece and Albania. There were a lot of people being real patriotic about Desert Storm but that's north FL for you, and it was more yellow-ribbon stuff than "kill em all" chuddy. I think it was the 2000 election that really brought out the chud spirit, 9/11 exacerbated it but you could definitely see people becoming what are today's chuds back then. Not that reaganite cons are ethical paragons or anything but you'd have Reagan-Chiles voters who could enunciate internally consistent beliefs guiding their decision to split the ticket that way. Bush people were way more like idk Browns or Raiders football fans.
