Its more or less based on how YOU experienced things in your own personal life during your teens and early 20's. So this can vary on location, time, & personal assumptions based on other trends. I...
I will admit the lyrics for the music usually was hit and miss, but I found the atmosphere in general much more fun than a lot of the music today. Here's a few examples: ...
Yeah I agree I always viewed those born in the mid-late 70's as Gen Xers, hence why I'm not the biggest fan of starting Y in 77', but I wont harp on that subject lol. However I always saw those in...
Yeah I don't mind!
Yeah I don't mind!
Yeah for me early-mid 08' is the end of the core 00's, late 08' was the transition from core 00's to electropop culture, and mid 09 onwards was purely electropop (aka early 10's culture).
This is pretty accurate. I would also have an additional age group called the 'Youth' period. Basically the cultural zeitgeist of an individual is usually formed during this period and this is...
Yeah this is VERY good! Although for me I always viewed 1993 borns as the last 100% Pure Y year, with those born in early-mid 94' being the last Pure Ys altogether. Similarly, I tend to start pure Z...
I'd say anybody 3-4 years older than you and 3-4 years younger is typically your 'main' generation of people. This stays true for most of your life, although as you come of age you start become to...
Yeah I was unable to un-retire so I decided to make a new one, hopefully nothing bad happens... Welcome back!
No ones saying they're not important, but they aren't your childhood years both mathematically and (by most people) culturally. Typically ages 3-4/5 is early, 5/6-10 is Core, Age 10/11-12 is Late....
I think what you meant to ask if those born from 1994-1999 aren't 90's KIDS, and the simple answer to that is because they didn't spend most of their childhood in the 90's. Those born in 1994-1996...
Yeah OC96 is me, IDK who the other dude is though...
For anybody whose my age and spent most of their teens in the Electropop era; Late 2008-Early 2013; what were some of the music, fashion, & various other trends you were into during this era? And do...
Yeah I agree I loved being an Early-Mid 2000's Kid! But I also liked being a teen in the Late 00's/Early 10's, at least when it came to the music and pop culture.
We got in 2000/2001, didn't start using it regularly till 2005.
Minus being born in the weird grey area between Gen Y & Gen Z, I like being my age! Although I wouldn't have mind being born in the mid 70's, Gen Xers are way cooler :wink:
Yeah and us Mid 90's babies are literally in between both worlds lol!
I've drank alcohol a few times at family events and parties, but personally no I don't see myself ever regularly drinking if that's what you mean.
Your 'teen' years are when you are between ages 13-19, so wherever you spent most of that time in is the decade or cultural era you belong to. Mathematically speaking, age 16 is in the middle of...
Yeah I agree that hard cutoffs are purely subjective
Yeah this is a great analysis Mqg! I agree with you that in terms of variety & quality Powerhouse was the pinnacle of Cartoon Network. CN City was good too! However the YES Era was when variety and...

Thank you for these posts! Its like I have been saying for a while now that back in the 1990's (so 20 years ago) many sources decided to cut off Gen X very short and start Gen Y (aka Millennials)...
The fact there are kids born in 2000 & 2001 in high school right now is freaky enough, let alone no 90's babies at all in high school lol.
Yeah I used to think 93ers and 94ers were cups but now that I think about it makes more sense for them to be the last of Core Y, then the start of Late Y. I think the reason why I seemed to included...
I 100% Agree!
Yes it would be massively different if I were to claim watching a show like the Flintstones since that show was before my time. However, I actually did grow up watching these two shows amongst other...
And I grew up watching both of these shows, both new episodes and reruns, so I'm definitely a Millennial in that regard! (Ok maybe that's wishful thinking, but I deserve some cred lol)
This begs the question do you think coming of age in the Obama or Bush 43' administration is a major Millennial Characteristic? For instance let's use age 18 as an example of coming of age, then...
Yeah pretty much, I liked Catscratch & Avatar, but the other ones I was never too fond of. Plus the shows are 10 years old, but they still seem very recent in the grand scheme of things
Definitely the new one! It's more accurate to start Gen Y in the early 80's than the late 70's
I think the notion with Nickelodeon is that the earlier 2000's, 2000-2004, was mainly targeted at Core Y (SNICK/TeeNick) and Late Y (Nicktoons). The later 2000's, 2005-2009 was mainly targeted at...
The problem with this is that Generation X and Millennials view the 1990's COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. For your average Gen Xer the 1990's meant this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYaqh--Uhx0 ...
My bad double post...
Yeah my Mom was born in 1957 and My Biological Dad in 1949. However most of my good friends have parents born in the Late 50's/Early-Mid 60's, heck my step dad was born in 1961!
Yeah this is true. As early as the 1980's, was when it was common for people to put off marriage and child bearing to late 20's or 30's. Hence why for 80's babies their parents would be core boomers...
I agree 100%
Yeah they graduated in 1998, which I agree with is mostly Y, but you can't just forget about their Freshman-Junior Years of High School. Freshman Year: 1994-1995 (Firmly X) Sophomore Year:...
But how though? Both 1995 & 1996 are Solid X Culture Years, plus 2000 & 2001 are both Solid Y Culture Years. The only one's that more complicated are 1997 & 1998, as both years are cuspy, 1997 seems...
True but by that definition a 79er could be considered Y as well since their coming of age years were 1995, 1997, & 2000. However I do get where your coming from. I believe that someone's youth is...
1980 still seems pretty X IMO. They were kids in the 80's, some of the last to have physical memories of the Challenger Explosion, Regan's Presidency, & the Cold War. Also they were in High School...
Those born in the 80's typically have parents born in the late 40's & 50's, so they would be full blown baby boomer kids. While those born in the 90's typically have parents born in the late 50's &...
Happy Belated Birthday!
True this is probably the most accurate way of dividing it. For our cohort born in the mid 90's we are on the borderline when it comes to practically everything. However, I would say I'm a Late Y at...
I actually made a topic about this in another forum. Personally if you ask me I think she's confusing traits that are identified with Late Gen Y (Children during 9/11, teens in the Great Recession)...
I'll use myself as an example using school years: Blue=First Half of Childhood Red=Second Half of Childhood Green=Peak of Childhood
After looking at the image it seems like the age 7-8 category is solidly someone's 'peak' childhood. Its not too early to be considered pre school age as a 6 year old and younger, but not too old to...
But in all honesty a kid who grew up mostly in the late 00's would have more in common with someone with someone who grew up in the 10's than with someone who grew up in the early 00's. Since the...
The movie is The Hunger Games XcrashX sorry about that I could've sworn it was working a couple of days ago...
