I'm right there with you. We were the rebound generation. The sons of Reagan, the Alex Keatons rebelling against smelly hippies.
Gen-Xers are now old enough to live there.
You have something there.
Yet, it is this broad-based disdain of boomers that led GenX to reject the life-lessons of those same boomers.
Of MLK, Johnson, Vietnam, Nixon, and yes, Reagan. Alex Keaton was character produced by Hollywood.
Which says VOLUMES about your world-view.
The current generation, under 22YO, hold your generation in contempt.
They call [you] slackers.
You reject the moral lessons of your birthright because, meh...it’s too much work.
I will pass back that broad-based disdain: GenX-ers are whiney p*ssies looking for an easy retirement from Uncle Sugar.
Please...piss and whine among yourselves.
Suck it up, Buttercup. Just keep working (paying my SS)
Shut up sonny and get off my lawn!
And we were rebelling against our commie professors who were the product of the 1960s. I used to have so much fun telling them I didn’t trust anybody over 30. LOLOL. In their arrogance they thought they’d be young forever. Nobody was ever supposed to be younger than them.
Unfortunately, they had a lot of leftist millennial kids who are causing all sorts of problems now.
