Now coltdizzle® you may need to Google some of these. But, a lot of the tools you millennials use to gain access to learning opportunities were created by Boomers. Might want to work on a little humility. I'm not sure which web based tool will help with that.

Most Boomers have forgotten more than you'll ever know because they figured it out themseves and don't need google to do it for them. In the end, whatever you call yourself, you're still a baby or grandbaby of a Boomer.

I don’t know what this disagreement is about, but I’m certain that my opinion is correct.

Also Jeff Bezos! I consider myself Gen X although I was born in 1964 the last year of the boomers. Same year as Bezos. I cannot understand why 1964 is considered a boomer. It’s waaaaay past the baby boom years of World War II. Makes no sense.

I was born in 63 and understand how you feel. My parents were older - they were born in 1925, so I probably was raised like most boomers even though I barely made the cutoff.

I’ve always felt more like Gen X than Millenial. I was out of college and into my career for a couple years before the first Smart phone came out. I used to watch head bangers ball on MTV, when it was actually Music Television.
I dont have anything in common with the social media generation.

Born in 1948 makes me among the oldest boomers….. but I was never called a boomer until I was so old that it didn’t matter
