While that can be well and true now, I had been called before Gen.X then Gen. MTV, there was a time when we were the screwed generation (with similar adjectives to it), then millennials (I was already working though before Y2K, and recently I heard someone refer to FPS from my teen years as a "boomer shooter".
I've been through more generation changes than a dragonball character.
Same. For years, it seemed, when that concept was introduced to me, I recall being Generation X. Then I'd hear "No, no, we're Generation Y." Then somehow I was a Millennial. I don't know what I am anymore. I'm clinging to the original Generation X, if I have to have a label. It sounds cooler.
