Born 1946-1964 (59-77 years old)

Which is purely the worst way to measure a generation.

I was born in 1963 and have nothing in common with those older than ten years than myself.

Generations should be within 10 years,10 years older or 10
years younger.

Someone who is nearly 20 years older is old enough to be the parent.

Hate the labeling of the “Baby Boomers” Very very stupid.

Those born 1956-1964 (late Boomers) are called "Generation Jones." They are quite different from the early Boomers. They are more practical & conservative, partly because, coming of age in the 1970s, they experienced the fallout of the hippie 1960s.

Myself a "Jones-er," I have nothing in common with anyone even 5 years older than me. To me, the early Boomers seem evil or weird. Talking to them, I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone. They were the ones who morally messed up this country.

I relate more to the Gen Xers like my kid brother, who shares my opinion of the early Boomers.
