How could you forget? But I guess Im an X so doesnt really apply. I also agree millenials are really 2 groups. 9/11 coincides with the rise of high speed internet available also.CrimsonNBlue wrote: ↑Tue Jun 09, 2020 2:25 pm Absolutely. The former half looks way more like Gen X and the latter like Gen Z.
If you remember what you were doing when 9/11 happen should maybe be where the split is.

On a practical level, I can be as self depriving about millennials as anyone.
But if we are to be the greatest, it’s not meant as put down to previous generations. It’s that we can draw upon the lessons gained from previous generations to be the best yet; to just optimistically keep progressing.
I expect the next generation/s to be better yet.
Heard a WWII vet from Johnson County who'd survived the Depression, had jumped into Normandy, survived Bastogne, made it back and had a good life, someone who'd definitely be called a member of the Greatest Generation talk to a military audience of much younger folks at a base in Belgium. He said that every generation is the Greatest Generation. I've reflected on his words over the years and think they were quite wise.ousdahl wrote: ↑Tue Jun 09, 2020 7:37 pm I meant it as more gut checks on more different levels than many generations.

But this is what I'm talking about with there being two sub-generations within "millennials".TDub wrote: ↑Tue Jun 09, 2020 7:42 pm I work with several millenial wanna be carpenters. Lemme just say that they certainly arent the greatest yet, despite the many lessons of other generations, they wont listen and keep thinking everything should be handed to them wothout the work....and how theyre the greatest and have changed the world. All while stepping on the backs of figurative giants.
Yea, but it took them until they were seniors, we dont like seniors around here.CrimsonNBlue wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 9:27 am The '04ers also brought you all the start of the conference title streak and the first National Championship in 2 decades.
