I’m thirty and one of my parents is a silent generation and the other is a boomer. Silent generation really might as well be boomers, they came of age in a time of great economic opportunity too, they just got older and had the horrible boomer views before the boomers.

E: lol I meant silent generation. Might as well be lost though

Yeah it’s weird. I’m 35 and my parents are 1955 and 1960 birth years. I just call em boomers though.

not the analytical engine
FFIW, Wikipedia lists Boomers as born early 1940s to early 1960s. Makes sense to me since my parents are in that range. All the middle aged Gen X artists I like were borne late 1960s to early 1980s.

Yes he confessed to a murder after five hours of interrogation by writing on a pad of paper that he taped the hands of three people, who were found with no tape or residue on their hands. And then flipped out and while recovering from knee surgery grabbed a metal baton and the FBI agent had to shoot him.

The same FBI agent who as a cop had multiple lawsuits and IA investigations against him for brutality, assault, false imprisonment, falsifying reports, and was collecting 50k per year in a disability scam from the police since 2005 and still collecting while working for the FBI since 2008.

Baby Boomers is the only generational label that actually corresponds to a firm timeline: the booming birthrate from '46 to '64.

Generational labels are utter bullshit that marketing people came up with to sell advertising in the days we didn’t have infinitely detailed information on all we do.

In the same way that Boise girls looks like NYU students, all generations will come to look like one another.

I mean, I know you’re making a joke but posting is kind of that generational equalizer. People of all generations holding the same stupid opinions and arguing about it in the same manner as each other. poo poo, you have Millenials that are just as bad as Boomers when trying to work a computer.

I was glad to hear a brief shout out to SFW with Stephen Dorff in the latest episode, since no one ever seems to know about it. If you want a movie that was released in 94 but somehow predicted the change from apathetic and nihilistic gen x to carehard millenials, plus reality tv, you should check it out.

I accidentally watched Reality Bites because I got it confused with Strange Days. Ebert is hit and miss but he nailed it:

quote:

"Reality Bites" opens with dizzying footage of college friends goofing around on top of a Houston skyscraper, celebrating their graduation, while a friend records the event with her video camera.

The friends are about as inane and boring as most people are while goofing off in front of a camera, but what's remarkable is how badly the footage is shot. The camera operator has no notion of how to frame a shot, how to hold the camera steady, or how to choose subject matter. The result looks like something that might have been obtained by the Monkeycam on the Letterman program.

But no. This is, in fact, footage for a documentary that the film's heroine is shooting about her friends and their current situation in life. And she continues to shoot throughout the film, while her pals oblige her with the kinds of sound bites that will make them cringe if they see this footage in five years.

The documentary-in-progress is supposed to record the passage of Generation X from college into an unfriendly job market, but actually what it records is callow and superficial behavior by kids who do not inspire us to wish we knew them better.

I dunno the exact origin but it's from waaay before Florence.

I remember "big wet meal baby" like almost a year ago or more.

Some googling suggests "wet boy" might be slang for 1) a pussy, a coward or 2) someone who has a sexual fetish for pissing their pants.

I always assumed it was wet [brain] similar to smooth brain. Associated symptoms are:

Severe memory loss
An inability to form new memories
Confabulation, memory of events that never occurred
Confusion, drowsiness and a paralysis of eye movements
Ataxia, a staggering or irregular gait
Auditory and visual hallucinations

Associated with alcohol abuse, but Trump doesn't drink, so who knows.
