All generational cohorts from gen X and older are pretty much agreed upon in terms of which years they cover.

Then with gen Y no one fucking agrees.

That's because the gen Y/millenial cohort is way too broad and situated in a really stupid time frame. The oldest and youngest gen Y members had extremely different childhoods.
yeah and it's all contrived anyway. Just a way to put people into neat little bins.

Hey.

I like bins.

Ok.

It's all invented by the media. There's no taxonomist inventing generational names.

But the term millenial was chosen as people who were under 18 when the millennium changed over

But not everyone even agree on that.

My parents are both late boomers.

I'm millenial though I identify more with xers.

Technically I'm a millennial, subclass 30yr old boomer.

"Every position must be held to the last man: there must be no retirement. With our backs to the wall and believing in the justice of our cause, each one of us must fight on to the end."

Earl Douglas Haig, Order to the British Army, 12 April 1918

So death, the most terrifying of ills, is nothing to us, since so long as we exist, death is not with us; but when death comes, then we do not exist. It does not then concern either the living or the dead, since the former it is not, and the latter are no more.
