Ha! I spent a lot of time in libraries using index cards, and plenty of time using Altavista on Netscape when that came around.
Gen-X had childhoods without phones or internet, so basically lots of bikes, skateboards, burning stuff and the quest for sweets.
@sardonicsmile TDLR version: I'm just a few years older, but I'm not a faggy Millennial like these people and I used to be considered part of Gen X, then Gen Y, now "Early Millennial."
@RoninGrey @sardonicsmile I always called that “Gen Y me”
@Scubbie @sardonicsmile We're a transitional generation. In-between, intermediate. I like "Gen i" but pronounced like Forrest Gump says that AIDS whore's name.
@Scubbie @sardonicsmile I actually remember now that I had invented a smiley for when people said "durrr" with a crooked mouth and smacked their bent wrist against their chest like we used to do in the 90's.
=/F
It never took off, but I was pretty proud of it and used it a lot.
@RoninGrey @sardonicsmile “durr” was classic retard mockery,it was a physical meme with the hand jester,not sure how they spread that originally,maybe a comedian?
@sardonicsmile
Millennials are just communists. Are they trying to rebrand themselves again?
@sardonicsmile We are millenials waiting for The Boomers to die so we can get free housing
@sardonicsmile I insist that there is a micro generation between Gen X and what they now call Millennials. We had one foot fully planted in the pre-internet world. Only in our teens did it all happen, so we experienced normal childhood, but then also childhood with access to the web all through jr high and high school. And it was some crazy shit. We used index cards in libraries but also Altavista search sometimes. Someo of us can make some keen observations about the world bc of this.
