We always hear how the Baby Boomers have fucked up the world for the generations following them but I want to know: what great things did Generation X ever accomplish?

they enjoyed the 80's

i wish i was alive in the 80's to experience it during its prime

Their popular music, whatever you think of it, was much more diverse.

finally one of you admits it.

gen x has done nothing many can't hold a job.
the millennials are living failures. the worst is get to come.

First and foremost, computer technology had it's boom during the 80's. So did the photographic industry. There is the origin of the massive porn sharing through internet.

Remember also that the moon landing occurred during the 80's. And fuck you if you come with the "Fake Landing" bullshit.

The first usable mobile phones started appearing during this era too.

Moon landing
80s?

..?

Kek, heres your you,
Moon landing was in the 70ies. And during your computer boom genx was about 10 years old, yeah, they really were contributing.
And phones were in the 90s.

Fucking retard, the first Moon landing was in 69 and the last was in 72.

Moon landings during the 80s?
Wtf you live in a alternative universe?

eighties for cell phones

Tf you mean? There's only been one moon landing..?

Automotives began to use the first developed electronic distribution devices for efficient fuel use at the beginning of the 80's.

The new technologies led medics and health specialist to use new ways of exploring the body non invasively, like with magnetic resonnance and, as far I can remember, they started guessing DNA was unique for each individual.

And now, let's explain some other things. Boomers are considered responsible for most, if not all, the economic and social problems from today because they were the 2nd most liberal generation in decades.

And before I get shit thrown at me, am a foreign centrist leaning toward liberalism. I understand why some people have to protest for their rights even here in my shithole country, but since the Boomers everybody is complaining about priviledges so it's not about rights anymore and this is what makes havoc to society.

>mobile phones
>In 1983, the DynaTAC 8000x was the first commercially available handheld mobile phone.

Poster said first usable mobile phones, not mobile phones in general

Millenials are the first generation to be worse off economically than their parents.

Gen X was the, "If its too hard, why bother trying?" generation

My bad, moon explorations.

Still, this part in history is a little confusing for us foreigners.

I'm forgin and i understand it clearly, you are juat fucking retarded af, leave faggot

The 80's was partly terrifying; Cold War in full force everyday impending doom by Soviet bombs, gun violence taking off in schools, crack epidemic, AIDS epidemic, Drug War, Crips and Bloods expanding out of LA, neo-Nazis that actually killed people, many more not listing.
And so Gen-Xers bring you; body modification, extreme sports, extreme porn, alternative music, hatred for status quo, extreme etc.
80's was a blast, good and bad. If you were a teenager you were probably on drugs or spent some time in a youth psychiatric hospital.

We pulled the carpet off of hard wood floors....

Taking the bait, leave faggot

sure kid

its your fault kid

so?

Jokes aside, these are correct.

Now, every generation has their own share of fault at this. But, the Baby-Boomers and the Boomers still have the greatest share of blame for all the problems we are facing today.

Keep in mind that both of these generations were just getting out of war, but what get to most people nerve is realizing that their solution for problems was to become lazy, dependant and distabilize society.

They never wondered why single mothers children were prone to a crime life and sadness, they didn't even saw correlation in that. They never got use for saving, they lived "Free" and left almost nothing for their offsprings to built wealth.

We made porn easier to get....

So, this is why you can't even get english grammar? Because am the retarded one for one little memory mistake?

How about killing yourself faggot?

I graduated H.S. in 85. Good times.
But all that God tier stuff we enjoyed in the 80s was really designed, developed, and built by boomers. We GenXrs were just kids back then.
I hate to say this, but we GenXrs are mostly responsible for the shit you get today. And you're going to be the ones producing the shit GenY gets. That's how it goes.
I would love to take credit for the 80s. But I honestly can't.

What's after millenials? I was born in 1998, but this one puts them to end at 1996

Parents pass on thier knowledge and remaining wealth when they die so their offsprings can get more.

For whatever reason Baby-Boomers threw this concept out of the window and told every generation next to fuck themselves.

Generation Alpha

At our ISP/NSP back in the late nineties, our motto was "ads, warez, and porn": those were the three things that drove internet usage.

Generation Y or some bullshit like that.

Everybody gets confused on this generations things because there is no definite conssensus among autors.

No. Gen z. Gen alpha is after z

sure kid
where did you hear this?

kek, moon landing was in 69

Yes, I'm sorry. You are correct.

You must be a 65 yr old boomer to be calling a 43 yr old a kid.

Generation X is dwarfed in size by the Boomers and the Millennials. We don't really matter because the Boomers by and large didn't retire and hand over the reigns of power, and the Millennials have different concerns than ours. Generation X's contribution to history will be when they're scapegoated for the Boomers mistakes.

Boomers, who took America from its greatest heights, kept it all for themselves, and apparently plans on laughing their way into the grave before it all comes back on them.

69 is part of the 70's....

God fucking dammit, I hate it when Boomers and GenX say they have nothing to do with the shit that goes on today yet you stupid fucks raised these sperglords and retarded faggots.

Call me triggered, but that doesn't mean you are not all stupid fucks.

very true, am a gay ass millennial and can barely live functionally and when i talk to younger kids i feel like we're just gonna get more and more autistic. but at least (theoretically) their parents/bosses will be us millennials so we'll have a good amount of retardation in common with each other.

Fuck you.

They built a bunch of .com companies that failed and they became broke and unemployed.

see

Gen xers are behind huge tech companies like facebook, google, twitter, etc. Those are pretty big accomplishments IMO

It was the "greed is good" boomers who crashed the economy in 08. It's GenX that's been rebuilding it. It was boomers who turned the country into a welfare state. It's GenX that's trying to restore some balance.

GEN X is starting to realize human life is pointless and full of suffering and everyone is a robot wagecuck slave, so why should they contribute to anything?

just be a NEET like me and leach of your parents while you can then suicide

Right back at you

sure kid

sure kid

sure kid

>mfw my generation will always be remembered as a bunch of entitleled SJW crybabies

I fucking hate millennials

sure kid

The failed worm dog Xers and Millenials are retarded half-humans with zero to say and even less to contribute. They don't think. They don't fuck (AIDS arrived in the late 70s), they obediently follow every order from authority while Boomers invariably respond with FUCK YOU. Sad.

Gen X / Millenial music: I rest my case.

It can be proven we have thing worse.
College is exponentially more expensive, so there are the loans.
No free health care with a job.
That fucking fine if you don't buy it.

Gen y more like y to live

amiright :^)

cry more

why do all those ppl in the picture have such a bad posture it triggers me

gen x'er here

we've done literally nothing except raise all you useless millennials

our bad. better luck to your fucked up offspring

good job raising us to be useless, dumbass

if you think you're the parents of the millenials, you don't know what a millenial is

>we've done literally nothing except raise all you useless millennials

what you are saying, is that you had literally one job and you fucked up.

If we're called millennials, then what is the younger gen called?

>our mistake
>your problem

yeah pretty much sums entire gen x population up pretty well

what makes me laugh about the whole millenial thing is that, lots of people don't realize what age range defines the generation, I can't tell you how many times I've heard a millenial talking shit about other millenials, and then go straight into denial about the fact that they are one.

IM A FUCKIN MILLENNIAL??
SHIT

Gen Y.

no there were 6.
There was going to be 7 if it wasn't for that faggot Swigert

College is more expensive BECAUSE there are so many fucking fdic loans out there. I say get rid of all federally insured loans. Watch college price drop over night.

>Millennial: '81-'96

Incorrect.

Millennials or Gen Y: Born 1977 to 1995. Generation X: Born 1965 to 1976

I was born in 1976 and both my children are millennials

to be fair, that is literally the attitude of every generation. our parents were worse

Generation autisimo

According too this fag graphic. But a dozen other sources will have you as Gen X and still more will have you as Gen Y or some other retarded shit. There are no agreed upon age range.

Yeah, every millennial realises that "all millenials are abc" is bullshit at about the time they realise they fall into that bracket.

If it makes you feel any better, some have taken to defining a group between gen X and millennials - "xennials" - born in late 70s and early 80s, not quite fitting into either group. Old enough to know only analogue technology for a time, experiencing the rise of digital tech throughout their juvenile years.

Added bonus: practically no asinine articles telling you that you're useless, workshy, lazy, oversensitive or whatever shite some idiot baked up this week.
