Yeah I’m ‘84 - I’m either young gen x or old millennial. I dunno, does it really matter?

I’ve heard the best way to split it is if the person remembers the Berlin Wall coming down. I only remember it as being a semi-recent historical event when I was a kid, which would make me a millennial.

However, my brother is ‘80 and he says he remembers it coming down so that would make him Gen X using this method.

Either way, I like this method better than trying to draw a line at a specific date.

I think the split between boomers and gen x is watergate.

The split between millennials and gen Z would be if a person remembers 9/11.

Covid is probably where I’d put the split between Zoomers and whatever.
