These generational things are pretty stupid. Even more so when they overlap or don't really cover what the colloquial definitions are.

I mean in my circle, Millennials are kids born in the mid to late 90's while Gen Y are kids born in the 80's and Gen X are kids born in the 70's. Their rise to prominence and influence on culture is why we give them nicknames.
