buckee Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Hmm, I've always wondered this myself... now I know. - People born before 1946 were called The Silent generation.. - The Baby Boomers , are people born between 1946 and 1959. - Generation X , people have been born between 1960 and 1979. - Generation Y , are the people born between 1980 and 2009 Why do we call the last group Generation Y? I never did know, but recently a cartoonist explained it very eloquently below... Learned something new today! Scroll down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Yep, that's about right. I see about 200 "plumber's smiles" everyday. BTW--pretty sure baby boomers ended in 1964. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckNrut Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 We don't allow "plumbing" in our school. The cartoonist was right on though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(We played outside and did'nt care what was on TV) Do you even know what a video game is? (We invented "Pong"...shut your face)...LOL Do you even know what a party is?

Michiganbowhunter_SQ2 Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 That's funny, although I don't think the majority of those born in the 80s wear or wore their clothes like that, at least no one I know did...that is more of a 1990s and on thing. Although in this area, there are people from all age groups who where their pants like that, yes, even generation X'ers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
