i just read something about how there are virtually no pop music icons that are Gen-X'rs. Spice Girls are the only excpetion. and Beyonce is barely a Gen-X. but pop was just not a thing for Gen-Xrs; only "alternative". Pop was reborn with millenials. interesting stuff.
Jennifer Lopez?

New Kids on the Block?

Janet Jackson?

Backstreet Boys?

janet jackson is definitely an exception. nkotb not really mainstreem pop but i could be wrong. bsb i thought were not that old. listen i didn't make the rules i just read this thing

What's the issue(s) with baby boomers again? My folks are baby boomers and they seem fine, as do their peers I've known.

The basics would be fine. If you want to pick maybe a sitcom character that I could contemplate that'd be okay.

I think greatest generation has to be born before like 1934 to count. JMHO

Rage Against the McKee · « **Reply #144 on:** January 07, 2016, 11:38:41 AM »

1981 makes you both Gen X and Millenial.

i can get down with that.

gen WW2 = before 1934
gen beatles = 1934-1945
boomers = 1946-1964
gen x = 1965-1980
millennials = 1981-1999
TLBTBD = 2000-present
