Both cynicism and optimism? How about entryism?
That’s like Michael Scott saying “Ryan has book smarts. I have street smarts... and book smarts.”

Have to disagree here. I was born in 80 and my brother in 72. Gen X was coined in the early 90’s. We already had internet in our home, and when my brother was my age we didn’t even have a computer. It’s more about being exposed to the internet earlier than a cultural thing IMO

Gen X starts in early or mid 60s. Even taking the younger side of that, that means a GenXer was 24 when the Nintendo was released. Do you think that 10 yr olds and 24 yr olds experienced the 1980s in the same way, or that the 55yo and 40yo of today have the same perspectives?

Born in 1960. “Analog childhood and digital adulthood” suits me perfectly. I built my first Heathkit computer at home in 1980 at twenty years old. Was into short wave as a teenager. Careful with categories. One you plop something into one, you lose information.

I will die on my Xennial hill. You don't know how weird it was man, you were already too old. (and in another country for that matter)
