Which year is the dividing line for Gen X and Millennials?

[–] PetteriPano@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I guess I might be a millennial or Xennial, then.

There really is a small cohort between Millennials and Gen X where our experience is rather unique.

There's also the term Xennials , which is 1977-1983.

I generalize millennials as too young to legally drink in the US (21) but old enough to remember the millennium. It's not completely accurate though.

Those people literally do not exist. Was that a joke? I just woke up.

The passage of time is a cruel mistress.

Millennials were born in the late 80s and through the 90s. 97/8 is the rough cutoff. Most of them are in their 30s now and the oldest are in their early 40s.
