Baby Boomers practically invented the participation trophy. It's why millennials got so many. And I've literally never heard a Baby Boomer complain about them. I've only ever heard about Gen X folks and below complain about them.

My dad and his friends are Gen X and all about the Fox kool-aid, so yeah kinda

I was born near the end of Gen X and it's stark how different I am from folks just a few years older than me - my aunt is early Gen X and she's a piece of shit. I identify more with Millennials so I just go with Xennial or Inbetweener.

I've heard young Xers and old millennials called the Oregon Trail generation. Named that because we were the first ones to have computers growing up. We grew up as the tech matured and got to watch it become easier and more useful.

Fox News has a predominantly older audience, with nearly half of its users being 50 or older. Americans ages 65 and older account for around four-in-ten of those who say their main source of political news is Fox News.

Baby Boomers: Baby boomers were born between 1946 and 1964. They're currently between 59-77 years old

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
