No, no. X is tired of the "Great Generation" and Boomers, not you. You just assumed since you are younger that somehow we had a problem with you. Do you give us shit for having a cigarette? Do you critique our lifestyle? No, you don't give a shit about that. You and we are cool.

Technically you'd qualify as Gen Y.

Boomers caused both bubbles. They are the ones controlling the money supply and the interest rates and they are the ones that decided that investments should be made into various industries. And they are the ones that will soon retire and have the power to suck this country dry.

The soldiers who went to war in the Middle East from 1992-2008 absolutely were Gen Xers. Only in the last two years or so have any Millennials been old enough. (Going with the 1990+ birth range; definitions vary, but that's the one I've always used.)
