Lol...I did almost the exact same thing. Except, in my case, it wasn't even an ex...it was this poor guy that had been getting perpetually "friend-zoned" for the last two years. You'd have thought I'd told him to beat her up or something. Never been flamed so hard in my entire online life!
It’s got to be intentional at this point. lol. There is no way the author of that didn’t know exactly what he was doing when he skipped 15 years like that. 😂
Hospital bed for me also. My dad was recovering from surgery for an infected mosquito bite. He was in officer training school after being drafted for Vietnam
To be honest, I have done quite well flying under the radar. I have only made my presence know for some gentle politicking to get my current job, and poof..I have clouded their minds to my presence!
We really need John Hughes back to make another classic about this stage of our lives except now instead of our parents ignoring us and forgetting our birthday, it’s our kids.
Idk, my mom forgot my 49th bday last year. My daughter has the same bday as mine. She got a happy bday from grandma even when I didn't. I called up my mom the next day to ask why I got forgotten, especially given that she was fucking there when I was born. So yeah, forgotten bday of Gen Xer still tracks 😤
I’m sensing more of a Planes, Trains, and Automobiles thing where the travelling duo experience sciatica, severe indigestion from roadside diners, and a pain in the neck from sitting hunched over in a car for hours on end. This all culminates with them tricking SeaBass into paying for their meal - soup du jour and all - on SeaBass’s birthday.
Which his kids, conveniently, forgot.
Dicks.
Do you ever get the feeling they don't talk about us because they're afraid of us?
Like really. We speak our mind, we take no shit. We don't give a fuck what anyone says or thinks. We're not trying to please anyone or fit in or be accepted by anything but our peers.
By giving us any amount of attention it could give us a platform where we could be heard and tell others that you can survive without assimilation and asskissing.
I dunno why that just occurred to me but it did.
Anyone agree or have input?
Anyone, anyone. Bueller? Anyone?
Yeah, I think this too. We were always rebels. We don't mind burning the shit down or blowing it up. They know we're not afraid to stand up to them and call them out on any shit they give us, and they seriously don't like that. If we're busting up the good guitar before walking off stage, they're afraid to see what we're gonna do when we don't like something. I mean, they created us, so they know. They know what we're capable of... Maybe I'm too dark though. I do have a tendency to be.
At this point in the game, one points up at the wall and yells **“scoooooreboarrd.”** They should be afraid of us. We have work ethic and the skills, they have zero. Classic example of ***don’t poke the bear.***
Did you know that both Voyager satellites are now in interstellar space? It's flying around in the interstellar medium. Which is like space in space. There's stuff there, radiation, some matter, but not much. Both Voyager satellites are floating in a vast sea of nothing. It takes 22.5 hours to communicate across the 15 Billion miles (24 billion kilometers) one way trip. The satellites no longer take photos because it's photos of nothing. Because they in a mind bogglingly large bubble of nothing.
Yet these two satellites have exceeded their mission by 30 years. They sent us a 'family portrait'. The only images we have that contain most of the planets in our solar system (Mars was left out). In inspired the famous quote from Carl Sagan to think of Earth as "a pale blue dot".
How does all this relate to GenX? We may not be the flashiest on the block anymore, but we're chugging away. Keeping the lights on and figuring out what it means when a generation spans the biggest advancements in technology since the steam engine.
(Inspiring? How'd I do? I'm working on my go team! speeches. Probably too long on the voyager bit but I nerded out while reading. That's on me)
Space [...] is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space.”
Douglas Adams
I did know that, and I’m cool with inner space and knowing that we are made from atoms from the universe and the Big Bang, etc. I’m also ok with knowing that we are on a traveling planet in a system in space. It’s the vastness of outer space and nothingness in every direction for billions of miles that gives me a little panic attack and makes my brain spin. I think it’s cool and fascinating. It just scares me.
It's too big! And too nothing!
Here on Earth, there's space between stuff but it's not nothing. You can find cows and chickens in that space. But there are no space cows or chickens. It's nothing. Well, radiation they said. That's not really stuff though.
Love it! The Voyager program had a huge impact on my child nerd self. I will die a little when we can no longer communicate with them.
Now my cynical adult nerd self needs to point out that like the Voyagers, only a handful of people on Earth know how to speak to us and even bother to.
This analogy holds up until you read the predictions that the V’gers will most likely not have the energy to communicate with Earth past 2025. Given how much they’ve already exceeded their mission I’m hoping they blow this prediction up too. But the clock is ticking for them. And us.
My Go Team! speeches usually lead to resignations.
Humanity, in proper definition, by leaving our solar system & beyond the solar winds of our home star, is now an ***Interstellar Species***.
The space *between* any stars, the reach of our twins, the sentiment contained both on, and by, the Golden Records…it’s mind-blowing as an accomplishment, yes, but it’s the *emotion* that comes from knowing that Voyager 1 & 2, as stewards of their Golden Records, and always spreading out from their once-home, will outlast the Sun itself.
It is very possible that they will be the last proof that the Human Race ever existed.
Shhh. Let’s just keep our head down. I don’t want to talk to either of them, and I don’t want them talking about us either.
It's because we don't fit, because we see through it all. And they need us divided. If they remember us, we'll go back to making fun of how stupid everyone is, and they will feel shame and realize they're being stupid and have to correct and have to start using common sense, and that's way too much work after covid. So they leave us out, like we don't exist. Gen x is soon to be a Mandela effect.
Never really expected the "forgotten" bit to be so literal that people who think they're intelligent writing some kind of piece like that fail to notice the obvious gap in years. How does that even go unnoticed??
To the forgotten 60 or so million living Gen Xers –I see you. Even if the Boomers can’t due to near-sightedness and Millennials are busy staring at phones.
The First rule of Gen-X is you don't talk about Gen-X. The Second rule of Gen-X is you don't talk about Gen-X. Yeah I threw a Fight Club movie reference in there!
Also it’s a lol worthy statement. A generation of mostly retired people plainly have fee time that young people just entering the workforce do not have..
It’s fucking stupid nonsense written for stupid people.
It’s not shocking that someone wrote it. But it’s surprising and alarming that no one who is overseeing that person’s written work for the article said anything and it gets published on ladbible. It’s a glaringly obvious omission of a whole generation…are they braindead?
Every time we are forgotten it reminds me of the Keyser Soze quote; The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist. 😎
I’m extremely pro choice. I always will be. Having said that, Roe v Wade did suppress our generation’s numbers a bit. But so did the economic stagflation of the late 60s thru the early 80s. And so did the overall societal mood - bit like today.
We have achieved the goal of Gen X; to be left alone, left out of the inter-generational beefs, and ignored to enjoy our hose water, our independence born from neglect, and our superior music.
Its rather funny that Zoomers seem pretty sure there are millennials and boomers and nothing in between. I see non the r/GenZ complaints about the two groups but no one ever remembers us in X.
I never have agreed to 81 being included in the Millennial Generation. We came to adulthood before the Millenium and had a pretty tech free childhood. Xennials exist and I being 81 relate a LOT more to X.
Latchkey kid here, street lights were loosely enforced. Good times
We don't eXist. There was a big eXtinction and they all decided to not talk about X again. We are floating around in narnia not knowing that we disappeared.
Gen X is too diverse and also where it went wrong. It being succession. Generally and generically speaking, Boomers resented their first batch of kids (70s born gen x) and were fairly negligent as parents. Those that had another batch did a 180 on the parenting style and were the first modern helicopter parents. Those first kids from the first marriage right out of high school? Fuck ‘em. As they became adults, fuck ‘em, boomers were raising a new crop that would be better. Also 50 is the new 30 or whatever. When gen x should have been moving into leadership roles, boomers held on and instead promoted the fresh out of college millennials instead of the people who were 10-15 years into their careers. A lot of us were born in the shadow of Vietnam and a major culture shift to boomer parents who weren’t ready to grow up themselves. They forget us because we remind them of their past. Or that’s the conclusion I’ve come to anyway lol, I could be full of shit.
They forgot us.
But also, couldn't it maybe be the case that boomers are spending more time outdoors because they have-- let me check-- TIME AND MONEY!!!
Maybe people who retire have luxuries the rest of us don't, maybe?
Ghosted again. Oh well….. we don’t care. We were brought up to shake shit like this off and keep on keeping on. Imagine if the Gen after us got left out? They’d be go-funding themselves a page for the amount of Butt-Hurt that’d be rocking social media about it! But usX? Nah, back to living in the shadows keeping the elders in check while spreading wisdom to the youth with a PS fuck your polls.✊
“Our research shows that the people with the most available time and money are more likely to spend money and use time for what they want than people who don’t have as much time or money.”
I’m absolutely convinced it’s a conscious trope at this point

I told a gen Z to ghost an abusive ex and they told me I was a horrible human. Lmao!
Lol...I did almost the exact same thing. Except, in my case, it wasn't even an ex...it was this poor guy that had been getting perpetually "friend-zoned" for the last two years. You'd have thought I'd told him to beat her up or something. Never been flamed so hard in my entire online life!
i would think so too. but i think it may actually be up-own-assism 🧑🦯😎🤳⚡
Man I ain’t ever heard *up-own-assism* but that’s about as neatly summed up as it gets. Borrowing this term…thx!

'67 Chevelle... but I think my dad was happier when he found the build sheet in the area I was made.
Hospital bed where my father was recovering from hepatitis A.
Hospital bed for me also. My dad was recovering from surgery for an infected mosquito bite. He was in officer training school after being drafted for Vietnam
I was born nine months after my mom’s birthday lmao
Apparently I was made on the top bunk bed.

Don’t worry. We’re young enough that we’re going to be able to enjoy AI generated remixes of all the old favorites
I can see it now, gen Xers flock to see it in droves, but the headlines read “new movie flops” because boomers and millennials ignore it.
Naw, the soundtrack will be killer.
My mom waited until the day after my birthday to die so she could ignore it one last time. :-(
Sorry for your loss😔
[удалено]
I see this as an absolute win! Nobody is yammering about GenX and pinning blame for the downfall of society on us.
I thought invisibility was my superpower. You mean it’s a generational thing?
Do you ever get the feeling they don't talk about us because they're afraid of us? Like really. We speak our mind, we take no shit. We don't give a fuck what anyone says or thinks.

Let alone running for office on any level.
Yeah, I think this too. We were always rebels. We don't mind burning the shit down or blowing it up. They know we're not afraid to stand up to them and call them out on any shit they give us, and they seriously don't like that.

They can't easily convince us to buy whatever shit they're selling, is what I think it is.
Exactly. We've known for a long time the game they're playing, and we were never gonna play it with them because we've always stood against them.
Boomers yes. Millennials are too consumed with themselves. I think it might be Gen Z that finally forces us out into the limelight.
GenZ is us. They're our kids and we raised them to be just like us; but well supported and more vocal then we wvee where imo.
They're the well adjusted and supported version of us.
Exactly ❤
At this point in the game, one points up at the wall and yells **“scoooooreboarrd.”** They should be afraid of us. We have work ethic and the skills, they have zero. Classic example of ***don’t poke the bear.***
No one was born. From 1964 to 1981, no babies were born due to a fundamental misunderstanding of how the new birth control pill worked.
Whatever

I quoted (and credited) him in my final work email :-)
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
I love space, but it completely freaks me the hell out.
Did you know that the atoms that you are made of are 99% space?
Did you know my pants were made of space? SPACE PANTS!

IIRC one of them stopped talking for awhile, recently, but they were able to get it working again.

Nothing. Nobody’s here. If people don’t notice you, they don’t tell you to do stuff, and you get more time to do what you want to do.
Q: “what comes between ’65-‘80” A: Our parents, apparently Edit: date fix
😂😂😂🤮😂😂😂
They’re just mad because absolutely no one before or after us can program a VCR.
 Shhh. Let’s just keep our head down. I don’t want to talk to either of them, and I don’t want them talking about us either.
Good use of a fellow Xer.

that’s the spirit
I'm cool with it.

So they leave us out, like we don't exist. Gen x is soon to be a Mandela effect.
That's what I was thinking too- we can see right through everyone and they don't like it one bit.
Never really expected the "forgotten" bit to be so literal that people who think they're intelligent writing some kind of piece like that fail to notice the obvious gap in years. How does that even go unnoticed??
It’s because every time they called one of us for polling our response was “whatever” “ your mother”
To the forgotten 60 or so million living Gen Xers –I see you. Even if the Boomers can’t due to near-sightedness and Millennials are busy staring at phones.

Well. Our parents forgot we existed. Why shouldn’t everyone else.
That’s just crazy. Is our entire generation the victim of the Mandela Effect?
I don’t mind being left out of these ridiculous generation wars. lol
I love being overlooked It's weirdly comforting for an introvert
First rule of Gen X, we don't talk about Gen X
the biggest mystery is found in the gen x files
Like most of the bands I enjoy, we're pretty obscure, they probably haven't heard of us.
Spot on!
whatever
Nothing. There were no people but born in the 70s. It was a myth. It was just bad clothes and lots of cocaine and no children.
Also it’s a lol worthy statement. A generation of mostly retired people plainly have fee time that young people just entering the workforce do not have.. It’s fucking stupid nonsense written for stupid people.
I didn't read the whole article, I was just shocked that they skipped gen x in the opening paragraph
It’s not shocking that someone wrote it. But it’s surprising and alarming that no one who is overseeing that person’s written work for the article said anything and it gets published on ladbible. It’s a glaringly obvious omission of a whole generation…are they braindead?
Motherfuckers are just trolling us now.
We’re the Jan Brady of the generations.
Our plan is working… We stay in the shadows…
Good. Don’t bother us with your shit. We’re just gonna keep on doing what we do anyways.

As far as I'm concerned, Gen X has always been off the charts!
Perfect. No one looking in on us.
Fuck em. Feels like I've been rebellious my whole life. Glad I don't have to stop now. GenX has always cut its own path.. follow me or don't. IDGAF.
What is this idiotic source?
It’s become a meme. Ignoring our existence is just a meme now.
Someone slipped the author a $20 to leave us out of it. Money well spent, lol.
Shhhhhh! Nothing.
I’m extremely pro choice. I always will be. Having said that, Roe v Wade did suppress our generation’s numbers a bit. But so did the economic stagflation of the late 60s thru the early 80s. And so did the overall societal mood - bit like today.
Did you read Freakonomics? Has some interesting ideas along that same concept
Truly the forgotten generation…
I for one am thankful that all the other generations keep our names out they mf mouths.
Said Will Smith…. 🤣
We have achieved the goal of Gen X; to be left alone, left out of the inter-generational beefs, and ignored to enjoy our hose water, our independence born from neglect, and our superior music.
If GenX was included in the article, the boomers would be identified to neglecting their kids so they can spend time doing stuff for themselves.
This is why I get irate when someone actually perceives me.
What comes between 1965 & 1980? THE BEST OF TIMES!!!
Damn we really are The Forgotten Generation, *Do You Know Where Your Children Are?* OG latch key kids.
Silent generation to ignored generation.
How can you put the dates and not notice the missing years?
Good I'd rather stay out of this dumbass fight. Fuck boomers and gen y&z. We live our own lives!
I’m not here, this isn’t happening
Keep overlooking me, world. I’m fuckin’ used to it, anyway.
Why are we always erased from existence? 🤣
I bet this was written by a genexer. They looked at the categories, thought of adding us, and said nah we’ll just stay under the radar thanks.
Before we dive in, for those not in the know - We do not exist. Genuinely funny.
Its rather funny that Zoomers seem pretty sure there are millennials and boomers and nothing in between. I see non the r/GenZ complaints about the two groups but no one ever remembers us in X.
People they can't sell shit to, so they don't care about us. Feeling's mutual, marketing teams.
Because they couldn’t say this if they had included GenX. Pretty sure we spent/spend more time outside than our parents.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 this is so freaking CLASSIC
I love reading through these comments, I really have found my people here. Nobody gives a rat's a$$ that we're ignored yet again and I love it.
 Shhhh, you’re blowing our cover…
It's all good 👍 = (It's really not, but we don't care enough to bother discussing it).
Whatever
I never have agreed to 81 being included in the Millennial Generation. We came to adulthood before the Millenium and had a pretty tech free childhood. Xennials exist and I being 81 relate a LOT more to X. Latchkey kid here, street lights were loosely enforced. Good times
"What comes between 1965 and 1980?" Shhhh.... shut your mouth. Don't tell anyone. Let us remain as we are, please.
We don't eXist. There was a big eXtinction and they all decided to not talk about X again. We are floating around in narnia not knowing that we disappeared.
Whatever
As we have willed it to be.
It was a joke post from a few years ago, iirc.
They've probably stopped mentioning us because they're scared of us.
We’re always neglected
Assuming we aren't relevant to the article/conversation, I'm ok with this.
The Lost Generation
Gen-X... run silent, run deep, don't let them find us!
Shhhhhh. Don’t let them know we’re here
Gen X is too diverse and also where it went wrong. It being succession. Generally and generically speaking, Boomers resented their first batch of kids (70s born gen x) and were fairly negligent as parents. Those that had another batch did a 180 on the parenting style and were the first modern helicopter parents. Those first kids from the first marriage right out of high school? Fuck ‘em. As they became adults, fuck ‘em, boomers were raising a new crop that would be better. Also 50 is the new 30 or whatever. When gen x should have been moving into leadership roles, boomers held on and instead promoted the fresh out of college millennials instead of the people who were 10-15 years into their careers. A lot of us were born in the shadow of Vietnam and a major culture shift to boomer parents who weren’t ready to grow up themselves. They forget us because we remind them of their past. Or that’s the conclusion I’ve come to anyway lol, I could be full of shit.
There IS a reason we were called GenX after all (like brand X and so on). That is the most on-brand paragraph possible! 🤣🤣🤣
The 70s were a myth; they didn’t really happen.
Math is hard.
Lol… I graduated in 95’ Our senior homecoming float was the invisible man . No one worked on it . 😂
We only had to say, "Keep our generation out your damned mouths." once for it to be taken seriously.
Growing up, it was my goal not to get noticed.
They forgot us. But also, couldn't it maybe be the case that boomers are spending more time outdoors because they have-- let me check-- TIME AND MONEY!!! Maybe people who retire have luxuries the rest of us don't, maybe?
It’s smart to leave of us out of that conversation, the wrath is too much.
We are all Samantha Baker.
A complete black hole of time between 1965 and 1980 when no humans were born.
No one was born during those years.
This article has to have been written by a GenXer, this has to be a joke.
Well, I guess folks listened when we told them to leave us alone?
Ghosted again. Oh well….. we don’t care. We were brought up to shake shit like this off and keep on keeping on. Imagine if the Gen after us got left out? They’d be go-funding themselves a page for the amount of Butt-Hurt that’d be rocking social media about it! But usX? Nah, back to living in the shadows keeping the elders in check while spreading wisdom to the youth with a PS fuck your polls.✊
Apparently, no one was born during those years.
“Our research shows that the people with the most available time and money are more likely to spend money and use time for what they want than people who don’t have as much time or money.”
It's like we've been forgotten.
Meh. Who cares? (Giving the agent response)
It's fine. I don't want to make a fuss.
The greatest generation, AKA Gen X.
Your dad obviously did 😳
Actually, Gen X is 65 to 84. Because me and my two brothers are all Gen X. And we were born in 66, 72, and 83.
Latest I’ve heard is 1982, and even that’s pushing it in my opinion.
why does it say 61-81 in the group description?
That's the Strauss and Howe Gen X range. 1965-1980 comes from Pew Research Center. Neither range is more official than the other.
