The members of my generation disagree on many things, music, politics, religion and we argue and debate many issues.
And we also have some regrets over the years.....

But the one thing, the one issue that every one us agrees on, the one common denominator that we all share is...
...that the biggest failure that we were ever involved in, was the engendering the GenX'ers, especially those now in their late 30's and early 40's.

You know who I'm talking about, anyone born between 1967 and 1980 - what a bunch of nightmares...
That group is the most whiny, self-centered, ostentatious group of dumb-asses that have existed on this planet in a long, long time.
Truly a sad lot indeed.
But even more sad, is that they are completely clueless as to their ineptitude or their lack of any redeeming qualities.

It is said that every millennium, a generation of total dumb-asses will be born.
God creates generations of humanity in batches, each batch lasts for a thousand years or so.
But even he is sometimes left with just the dregs of a batch, the bottom of the barrel so to speak, such are the GenX'ers.

However, all is not lost and we can all thank God, that the generation after these shipwrecks of humanity is of much finer character and purpose.

So after the Gen X'ers of the late 20th century, it is good that earth shall at least be safe for another thousand years.

Yeah, I appeased your bait only to give you the obvious of what you ignore. Peace, love, tranquility and sitting around on their candy asses sums up your generation to a tee.

One of those true nostalgia ridden lists.

I mean, The Clash, Joy Division... They certainly deserve an honorable mention and I can very much agree that they both had one album which deserves to be on this list, but you can't tell me that, musically, both had two better albums than, for instance, Muse. (You can't tell me that Joy Division had a single better album, but that's personal taste, I reckon).

Oh... And Lynyrd Skynyrd at 195 right behind Donna Freakin' Summer...

Oh, and sorry for breaking up the generation rant.

My generation kicks your generation's ass.

OK, I'll play along with your sniveling rant.
"Everything on a silver platter", eh? Damn, you really are clueless.

Yes, my generation has made our share of mistakes and yet we accomplished a great deal.

Perhaps you should reflect that when we were young, having to put up with a society firmly in the hands of the likes of J. Edgar Hoover, William Westmoreland, Richard Nixon, George Wallace and the like wasn't exactly a picnic in the park.
Not to mention earlier 20th Century generations who had to put up with minor inconveniences such as robber barons, sweatshops, Flanders Field and Gallipoli, 12 years of the Depression, the Dust Bowl, Nazism and the fear of nuclear weapons.

We did our job. We fought hard to change the things about society we perceived as being wrong; as a group, we made our voices heard where those before us had been silent.

We tried valiantly to establish a new national moral high ground, and succeeded as often as not; we remained a diverse and vibrant group--and it should be remembered that Yuppiedom is no more characteristic of our legacy than is Hippiedom--
And when we had finally won the battles but lost the war, the vast majority reintegrated ourselves into the mainstream fabric of the American society and have become hard-working contributors to it.

Our generation set the stage by creating the personal computer, operating systems software and the Internet.
Study advancements in almost any field from 1970 through today, and you will discover significant contributions by baby boomers.
And you will find leadership across the intellectual and cultural landscape.

Have baby boomers lived off our Vietnam War era fervor without further sacrificing or contributing?
Don't delude yourself.
Although 58,000 of us died in Vietnam and another 300,000 were wounded β€” statistics we shall never forget β€” our most profound, continuing war has been within U.S. borders β€” a war against arcane values and a hegemonic political and social power structure.
Among the results:

- Never again will women in America live as second-class citizens.

- Never again will racial minorities suffer segregation and discrimination sponsored by U.S. government institutions.

- Never again will companies autocratically control employees' lives.

- Never again will companies dump poisons unabated into the natural environment


Sure, we could have done some things better, and yes we made plenty of mistakes, but never, ever say that we did not try.



So my young friend, what will your generation's legacy be?

Besides of course "It's all their fault. Oh woe is me. There is nothing that we can do, oh woe is me."


Quit whining, it's past your generations peak, but there is still time for you to get off your ass and make a difference.
Take some of the fire that both you and Julie have and put it to the greater good, for God's sake.
You're still young enough, don't just yap about it..........fight the fight.

Rockmolder's generation is under-appreciated musically. I've known some fine musicians from that generation. If you can throw out the Emo garbage and Pop (but of course Pop music has always sucked and always will suck), Rockmolder's generation is way more creative than my generation, and yes, way more creative than VR's generation even though they put out that crappy rag Rolling Stone and mentally masturbate to their stupid lists.

I've been pleasantly surprised listening to the latest generation's music. Once again, read what I said carefully - avoid Emo and Pop. If you do that, you'll find a lot of real good music. Of course, the one who put out that list thinks he's too good to bother looking for it.

Now, if you would please explain to me how it is yours is the first generation to not leave its children in a much better position financially than the previous generation - I will go away quietly. I didn't think you could - you spent all the savings, and sold us all into credit slavery. Wiggle out of it if you dare. In the words of the great Phil Collins, "Land of Confusion"; he claims his generation will put it right. We are waiting.

Just hope my generation takes care of you in when you get to the comfortable beds, and three times a week enemas. I'll volunteer for yours.
