This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I don’t understand, are you confused at the age range for Boomers? It literally says it in the image…

I get where they're coming from.

The starting point is normally defined at the time you came out of your mother's womb, but it really shouldn't be.

It should be started at the point where you first enter society as a child, and start learning your generation's societal values.

Basically, when you started kindergarten, or Elementary School.

They did that for Gen Z, where it’s essentially the dividing line between people who were more or less cognizant when 9/11 happened, and those who weren’t.
