And the weirdness continues.
Are millennials really this desensitized?
If she’s a high school student she’s not a millennial, she’s gen-z
Huh?
Boomers -> Gen X -> Millenials -> Gen Z.
Millenials are named millenials for being born at the millennium, which is the year 2000. If she's in highschool right now, she's a millenial. People born in the 80's to early 90's are Gen X, and people born in the late 90's early 2k's are millenials. Gen Z are the kids of millenials. They are all babies right now.
You could not be more wrong.
My dad was born in 52, I was born in 86; I'm not a millenial, I'm a gen Xer. Looks like you have no idea or grasp or concept of how "Generations" work. It's really less about the time you're born and more about the next generation of progeny; we use a loose time frame because of "overlap" but no; it's not a blanket. It literally refers to the generation on the family tree.
I don't care what Strauss and Howe say, because that's not how generations work.
A millenial can never be the next progeny from baby boomers, they would be Gen X. Baby Boomer couples can't have millenials. It's not possible.

Exactly when Generation X ends and the millennial generation begins depends on who you ask.
Some propose creating a micro-generation for those born on the cusp of the two generations, between 1977 and 1985.
Called "Xennials," they have both the cynicism of Gen Xers and the optimism of millennials

If I was in the FBI this type of post would make me take action. Just saying.

Youtube removed the video for "harassment and bullying".

1986 isn't gen x. I'm 4 years older than you and I'm still not gen x. There's some dumb new term for what I am but 86 falls firmly into millennial.
Edit: here you go. Xennials
The last bit of the last point doesn't hold much truth though:

Another strange video.
Officers carry something out of the Florida High School that currently has a active shooter.
A) As pointed out, she is bizarrely cheery about the massacre that just took place with a dozen plus injured and 17 of her classmates dead.
