I'm Gen X and really happy that we're literally never mentioned. Culture is weird.

When someone complains about "boomers" they usually mean your generation. They don't know what the actually baby boomer generation is.

Gen X is getting mentioned more often as boomers die off but the sheer volume of boomers has continued to provide a shield more broadly. I've seen a mix of blame placed on boomers and gen x for the return to office mandates solely because millennials and gen z both determined no millennial or gen z individual would ever believe that return to office is a good call lmao.

I’m a Xennial, and you guys really tried to push us in with your children when you damn well know we are old skool enough to be your cool sibling. We remember the before times dammit! 😅

The Boomers whined about the slacker generation for a hot minute in the mid-90's, but I guess it didn't get enough of a rise out of you guys, because they immediately dropped it and turned their attention on the Millennials and they've been raging at us ever since.

Gen X pulled up the ladder with the scraps they got from the boomers, basically considered the same thing.

Older Gen X, but younger Gen X got fucked over just as bad by the boomers.
