Generation "X" Needs To Do Something of Note, or Keep Mouths Closed

Damn skippy There's a lot of that in the UK media "this country is going to hell" type of thing. With good reason too, at many things our generation, especially those now teenagers, is appauling. But there are some good apples. And it's the sad case, as always, where the good apples have to pay along with the bad apples.

It seems we truly see each other's POV

And it never would have started unless the CCX had proved the model could work

The real point is that companies are addressing Global Warming. And to claim that the US isn't doing anything about it because our crappy government wouldn't sign a worthless treaty is simply funny. Results are what really matters here. And the CCX and other such exchanges are providing real results.

I want a link to this operation.

just for the record... i dont feel ANY connection, or dont feel the "right" to "defend" anybody from my "Generation X"...

i actually feel more of a connection with Generation "Y" than "X"... I "look" like a Gen "Y," i actually believe i get along better with those from the Gen "Y," and I believe I actually get more respect from those from "Generation Y." I am DEFINATELY "ahead-of-my-time." I was the FIRST example of an "emo flamer" as i WAS one throughout school and early college, before emo was a word or a "phase," or even thought of... I was the FIRST and ORIGINAL and I "broke the mold." Now i am most definalely NOT an emo, i am more of a ruGGed O.G. that has been through hell... The point is we cannot stereotype ourselves into different categories, especially ones that classify ourselves into different "Generations." Reason for this being that I am a CLEAR example of a Gen X'er that was a "prototype" of a Gen "Y'er..." I am not ashamed of this either...

ok in terms of years born i am considered part of gen x but i think that there was a group of us that is stuck between that one and the one before. Some of us born say like in 1969 dont feel part of either generation i dont know how to really explain it but we got ideas from before us and thne from after us so we are like an inbetween and i think those years include 1967 to 1970

Typos happen to the best of us sometime, regardless of education.


Just like people sometimes are so full of sh!t from constipation, regardless of what political party one belongs to; we're ALL full of sh!t sometimes.

1980 is too late.

1945-1960 makes sense for the boomers.

1961-1976 makes sense for generation X. That way there is 30 years between the oldest boomers and their first children.

im 1978... which is why i dont feel a connection with "X"

[Mrs. Tuberski]

what makes sense? some of us dont have a connection to that generation regardless of what year we were born in. I find my self not agreeing with folks 4 years older then me and floks 2 years younger then me. There has to be a middle or a lost generation that some of us feel connected to

[Ben Kenobi]

That is very true. I don't agree much with folks my age, I tend to agree with folks who are older then I am. Find that we tend to see the world in the same way.

It's just a convenience to try to lump in these ideas of 'generations' together because the idea was that folks of one generation ought to have more in common with each other then with folks in other generations.

I'm not sure if that's so true anymore, since there isn't really a generation gap nowadays.

If you had any irony-detection circuits you would realise that the context here was a little more than mere typo-trolling.

Woosh!!

Never mind.

simply being a generation at a certain time period doesnt equate doing something or anything extrodinary.
