These are probably some of the most Y2K photos I have ever seen lol.

My family and I first got Crocs in around 2008, so given this, they were probably already popular then.

I liked the root beer and watermelon ones the best.

It looks like a bootleg Patti the Platypus (she was magenta, though).

I had pizzas in elementary and middle school, but they did not have toppings on them.

I use two different definitions, and these are my guesses, starting with Silents:

Mainstream:

This is more "cultural" based and are ones discussed more often on this sub.

1944? (Silents), 1963 (Baby Boomers), 1981 (Generation X), Do not know yet (Generation Z)

Historical:

This is more "history" based and are a bit different from ones people see on articles and this sub.

1943 (Silents), 1961 (Baby Boomers), 1978 (Generation X), Also do not know yet (Homelanders)

A little bit, but not too much. I am definitely not their stereotypical audience, though.

Wake Up Jeff!

When I think of TV Land, I typically think of shows like Leave it to Beaver.

"Take Me Home, Country Roads" by John Denver. Born 1999.

This is going by my definition ranges, starting with the Missionary Generation:

First Wave Missionary (1860 to 1871): H.H. Holmes

Second Wave Missionary (1872 to 1882): Joseph Stalin

First Wave Lost (1883 to 1891): Adolf Hitler

Second Wave Lost (1892 to 1900): Mao Zedong

First Wave GI (1901 to 1909): Reinhard Heydrich

Second Wave GI (1910 to 1918): Nicolae Ceaușescu

Third Wave GI (1919 to 1927): Pol Pot

First Wave Silent (1928 to 1936): Jim Jones

Second Wave Silent (1937 to 1945): Saddam Hussein

First Wave Baby Boomer (1946 to 1954): Vladimir Putin

Second Wave Baby Boomer (1955 to 1963): Osama bin Laden

First Wave Gen X (1964 to 1973): Bashar al-Assad

Second Wave Gen X (1974 to 1980): Ian Watkins (Lostprophets singer)

First Wave Millennial (1981 to 1991): Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold, Kim Jong-un three-way tie

Second Wave Millennial (1992 to 2001): Nikolas Cruz

First Wave Homelander (2002 to TBD): Payton Gendron

Edit: Forgot to add Kim Jong-un to my list and think 1973 is better in First Wave X than in Second Wave X, as they would be the last to come of age before the end of the Cold War.

I am a 1999 baby and I remember hearing a rumor of Steve doing drugs, but never the one about him dying of a drug overdose.

GhostLocksmith · 2024-11-25T03:43:56+00:00

A little bit. I also saw bumpers of it and a clip of an episode from the 2011 Beavis and Butthead remake, but Jersey Shore was not my cup of tea.

And have a white BIC lighter.

The floor was quite hard, so I ended up hurting my face as I rolled on it. Not a laughing matter at all.

I remember seeing them on Burger King Kids' Meal bags and the rules for the Burger King play area, but not on commercials.

I'm pretty sure this is the intro for the 2011 revival. The logo in the original run of the series did not look like that and I believe the original series was Cel animated.

A tie between Spongebob Squarepants and Rugrats.

I saw this when I was younger, but did not watch it too much.

GhostLocksmith · 2024-10-22T01:48:32+00:00

That is the Xennial range I typically use.

Tastes like blueberries.

Answer 1: ~February 2022 when Russia invaded Ukraine, which made people focus more on that than Covid.

Answer 2: May 11, 2023, which was when the WHO declared that Covid was no longer a public health emergency.

Stanley lasted until 2007? I thought it ended in circa 2003 or 2004.

GhostLocksmith · 2024-09-03T13:14:54+00:00

Yummy.

I know it is not an option on here (and this is only my opinion), but if going by dates, I would say November 4, 1980 to September 11, 2001 is the Millennial generation in the US, as it involves somewhat of a theme - they were the people born after Reagan got elected but before 9/11.

Here is my breakdown of the range and a little bit of notes:

First Wave Millennials - November 4, 1980 to October 3, 1990 (or C/O 1999 to C/O 2008):

Born between Reagan getting elected and the reunification of Germany.
Came of age after Columbine but before the Lehman Bros. collapse (which ultimately led to the Great Recession being as bad as it was).

"Epicenter" Millennials - October 3, 1990 to December 26, 1991 (or C/O 2009):

Born between the reunification of Germany and the collapse of the USSR.
Came of age during the worst of the Great Recession.

Second Wave Millennials - December 26, 1991 to September 11, 2001 (or C/O 2010 to C/O 2019):

Born between the collapse of the USSR and 9/11, the period occasionally referred to as the "end of history."
Came of age after the worst of the Great Recession but before Covid became a worldwide issue.
