GENERATION X GENERAL

Berzerk and Zaxxon were my favorite until Double Dragon and Contra came out.

The internet was "gay" because it was slow, but it wasn't gay because if you were patient you could download porn and music for free.

This movie is free on YouTube. An 80's classic. Back when it was cool to have a teen/science movie.

Gen X guy here. "Keeping it real" is playing both sides of the fence. The boomers are looking to hand over the keys to someone, and the millennials and zoomers are ready to support anyone that shows any interest in their nonsense,

I'm too old for nonsense, I prefer absurdity.

We were the only group that was not racist, said what is considered racist things and no one cared or you fought and then became friends aftewards.

Also, Heavy Barrel was a good arcade game.

You had to use stolen accounts to stay on for any substantial time for the first number of years. AOL and other providers gave you some bullshit like 20 hours a month, which is you had family, was to fucking to be shared. Naw, it was gay. Slow and gay.

The first album I illegally downloaded was Pennywise, About Time in 1994. Wait, Maybe it was 95. I had to leave the computer on all night to download low quality music, but it saved me $12. I've been doing this for a minute, son.

The 80's were a great time because all this gender weirdness hadn't started yet, but I believe they switched were working on it. You ever notice the rocker men and women had the same hair styles? So did the male and female new wavers. They were working on androgyny. That's something David Bowie was pushing.

We had a couple of gay black dudes who hung out with the black chicks. They had extensions and walked around the hallways swishing about.

We didn't know what they were or care, they were just those 2 dudes who acted weird and didn't want to play a game of pickup.

Plate of shrimp.

Where I lived it was $20 a month and took up a phone line, but there wasn't a limit on hours you could be on the web. I've also been around for a while, "son".

>Double Dragon
the first day DD was at my arcade there were "22 credits" in - most I've even seen.

>all this gender weirdness hadn't started yet

Ehh it sort of did. In the '70s we used to make fun of trannies and dudes in drag. Also, being openly gay was accepted in some places. In most places it would get your ass kicked though and calling someone a faggot was the worst insult out there. The good old days.

Let's go do some crimes.

Fuck I was born in 80 and get lumped in to GenX I hate it they are just adopting trends of Gen Y, but I also don't want to be part of Gen Y which cant figure out male and female. Let me off this retarded cultural train wreck.

We are Xennials. We are kids to X and boomers to Millennials.

The way things change so fast it's almost like it'd be better designating people by decade than generation. The people in the '60s and those coming up in the late 80's early '90s were completely different people than in my years.

I take it your 20 something Gen X parents didn't show you enough attention as a child.

>implying
Boomers and Xers non ironically ruined the country, and millenials have just been pissing on the ruins
Glad I was born 1997 so I get to straddle the line between millenials and Zoomers, plus me dropping out of college and now getting back into it means when I transfer to my 4 year I will be surrounded by Zoomers, since the millenials have all finished college or will within 2 or 3 years
I always knew millenials were faggots and now that Im older I know who to blame for them

So you dropped out of college and had to move back in with your Gen X parents. That's where the animosity comes from.

Micheal Jackson, victims.

And on cassette no doubt.

Bastards of Young.

>tfw you owned that same blue MTV shirt in 1982
Funny part was, we didn’t even have cable then, couldn’t even get it in the suburbs where we were for another 2 years. SelecTV was our shit, oneregilar channel and one porn channel was all you got.

GenX didnt do anything to ruin the country you retard. We inherited the same nightmare from the boomers.

ITT: memories no milennial or zoomer will ever have

Enjoy, hipster doofuses

Yes, but only ironically.

Robotron is better. And, I did get the high score last time I found a multicade that had it. Felt good, but I was sweating a lot from the pressure.

They exist, they just suck for capability right now.

Do you remeber Box? It was MTV for poor people in the burbs. Anolog and you would call in and request videos for a charge like a Jukebox.

I'm even more impressed that you have these things readily available to take a picture of.

My parents were born in the fucking 1930s, retard, they were pre-boomer, but you think anyone older than 60 is a boomer so you can’t be saved.

Saw Mojo in San Jose in '89.
He forced some kid onstage and made him fuck an inflatable sheep.

That cringe moment when Gen X wants to get drunk with the underpaid Millennials and they channel Michael Scott. No I don't want to get drinks with you after work, you don't pa overtime for the work I do, I'm certainly not going to be your friend.

Please don't post terrible NOFX ripoffs.

Unless someone needed to make a phone call.

I tried to see Mojo Nixon some time later w/Jello Biafra, but I was still underage and couldn't get in.

fuck off all the 19-23 year olds are absolute trash. You are literally the vine, autism craft playing, and tide pod eating kids smashed between millennials and zoomers. The worst of both worlds: the narcissism of millennials and low iq trend hopping of zoomers

>The worst of both worlds
As a Xennial, I am the same but of X and Millennial.

nofx was good at one point when bush was in office and they were correct.
now they're just a fat kike, a skinny kike, a hwite and an illegal.

I didn't listen to much of them after maybe 1997.

so Gen X nihilism and millennial consumerism I'm guessing . I don't hate gen x or zoomers as much as I hate boomers and my gen y peers.

>Gen X nihilism

Still makes sense. Not like the boomers were ever going to let us near anything important or valuable.

>these little faggots

Zoomers are mostly the kids of Gen X though, don't be a bad dad

I've always lived with them, went to 4 year for a year, dropped out and worked, now at community and gonna transfer to a different 4 year
You expanded on the shit they caused and made 0 effort to stop any of it
I actually dont feel like Im part of any generation, I was a total shut in until college and all my socializing in the past few years has been learning to mimic the normies

How did 1 generation cause 2? Instead each gen supposed to have kids which make one (1) new gen?

The Cosby Show was the most popular tv show in decades. Bill Cosby was "America's Dad". Every kid growing up in the 80's had a poster of Michael Jordan or Michael Jackson or Whitney Houston or Prince or some other black celebrity on their wall, and nobody gave a second thought as to whether these people were black or white. Racism wasn't even an afterthought. Then along comes Obama, and all of a sudden America has a "race problem" because he said so. He made that shit up out of thin air. That will always be that scumbag's legacy, the fact that he created this current day situation of completely broken race relations and racial tension. Thanks Obama! Good job!

It is unclear to me what you mean. People born in the 1970s- the bulk of Gen X- generally began having kids in the 2000s- the bulk of Gen Z. Thus the bulk of Gen Z are the children of Gen X.

>gets bullied for being the autistic kid
>"WE ARE GEN ZYKLON REEE"

I was born in the early 1990s, went back for another semester to finish my degree in 2017 after a period of absence. The freshmen/sophomores on campus who were in the late 90's clade were all autistic weirdos who said things like "retarded is an ablest word so don't say it!" There were even antifa posters on my pretty campus, and the number of shitskins was noticeable compared to before.

Gen Z exists only in memes and you're living proof of this- rather than look around you and see the blue-haired tumblr degeneracy that Gen Z has driven to the max, you cry that the 20 year olds who are liberal college students must be Millennials while those who are conservative are Zoomers. Just a dumbass.

FYI demographic the 1980s-born, that is the core millennials who are the ones in the news for eating avocado toast and are in their 30s now tend to be heavily conservative (or at least the white ones).

So again, you're a retard.

How does one consume when one has no money to consume with?

wow ! imagine being this fucked up at such an early age

We're a failed generation. Only some of us saw what was coming, and they just went into being "slackers" and extreme sports. The rest of us bought into the boomers' lies and kept working hard in spite of the fact that we were digging our own grave.
Best we just get out of GenZ's way when they decide to break out the Zyklon.

To be fair you can't lay the blame completely on Obama. It was the media kikes who pushed him and his agenda of race problematicism.
