The generation that runs the country, and will hold on to power to the bitter end.
is that why they elected Trump, so they can go out with the biggest bang ever?  

Yeah well, if we are going to exit, might as well take down as many of the rest as possible. Hey, Dead0, you are not going to get a rise of me bashing Boomers. Hudson yes, Boomers no! Tongue



Hudson Hawk was Bruce Willis's worst movie.  Hudson was overrated as a car, a man AND a movie!  As bays go, I'd rather have Michael!  And how could you possibly live on the straightest river in America?  Don't get me started on the explorer.

Don't worry... we'll make sure the end is bitter.

I'm one of those early Millennials, though I honestly feel at least a part of me identifies with Generation X. 

Ditto. I feel way more like my father's generation (boomers) or my mother's generation (X).

Gen-X

One of the smallest generations ever in American History, but yet we invented Punk Rock and Hip-Hop, not to mention throw in a bit of Heavy Metal....

An American Punk song from the band Reagan Youth perhaps describes how many of us felt way back in '84 when Ronald Reagan was running for reelection...

We are the sons of Reagan heil
We're gonna kill all pagans heil
The right's our sacred mission
We'll start an inquisition
We're gonna purge the heathen kind

Cause' we are
Reagan youth heil, heil, heil
Reagan youth heil, heil, heil
Reagan youth seig heil

We are the sons of Reagan heil
We are the godforsaken heil
The right is our religion
We all watch television
Drugs have fried our brainwashed minds

We are the sons of Reagan heil
We are the unawakened heil
We want another war
Forward to El Salvador
We're gonna kill some communists

Cause' we are
Reagan youth heil, heil, heil
Reagan youth heil, heil, heil
Reagan youth seig heil


Throw in a bit of The Adolescents: Kids of the Black Hole

No sound is heard from unit two
When there was once so much to do
Was once a green mansion, but now it's a wasteland
Our days of wreckless fun are through

GO!

Kids in a fast lane living for today
No rules to abide by and no one to obey
Sex, drugs and fun is their only thought and care
Another swig of brew another overnight affair

House of the filthy, house not a home
House of destruction where the lurkers roamed
House that belonged to all the homeless kids
House of the filthy, house not a home
House of destruction where the lurkers roamed
House that belonged to all the homeless kids
Kids of the black hole

Messages and slogans are the primary decor
History's recorded in a clutter on the floor
Inhabitants that searched the grounds for roaches or spare change
Another night of chaos is so easy to arrange

House of the filthy, house not a home
House of destruction where the lurkers roamed
House that belonged to all the homeless kids
House of the filthy, house not a home
House of destruction where the lurkers roamed
House that belonged to all the homeless kids
Kids of the black hole

The nights of birthdays
The nights of fry
The nights of endless drinking
The nights of violence
The nights of noise
The nights that had to end for good, still not understood, by the girls and boys

Carefree in their actions as for morals they had none
When the girls were horny who would be the lucky ones?
Pushing all the limits to a point of no return
Trashed beyond belief to show the kids don't wanna learn

House of the filthy, house not a home
House of destruction where the lurkers roamed
House that belonged to all the homeless kids
House of the filthy, house not a home
House of destruction where the lurkers roamed
House that belonged to all the homeless kids
House of the filthy, house not a home
House of destruction where the lurkers roamed
House that belonged to all the homeless kids
House of the filthy, house not a home
House of destruction where the lurkers roamed
House that belonged to all the homeless kids
Kids of the black hole


Links to these songs that I bought way back on cassette, and please listen and if you like buy the song from the artists....

Reagan Youth: Sons of Reagan Youth

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V47_DQ3WT6c

Adolescents: Kids of the Black Hole

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifq24lljbQM

We are the forgotten generation, that suffered the most at the hands of the "Reagan Recession"...

We are the generation where single-parent households became the norm, rather than the exception.

We are the generation regaled with stories from out parents about their marches for Civil Rights and against the Vietnam War.

We are the generation that are children of Vietnam Vets that came home traumatized by their War experiences...

We are the generation that fought in the trenches for LBG equality (In an era where even in Progressive Democratic precincts this still considered to be odd even as a Straight Ally)

We created our own music and sub-cultures regardless of racial and ethnic background, believing that despite the Nightmare we were living under in the Reagan era that overall times would get better, and if need be we can Do It Yourself (DIY).

We are the Generation betrayed by our Baby Boomer parents that although they professed and self-promoted as the Generation of change, created and listened to some awesome rock music, ultimately sold us down the river for their own self-centered egoist self-identification as entitled "Baby Boomers", and left us all to rot underneath the sacred altars of their own personal economic security, while we are left holding the narrow crumbs remaining after the Full-Tilt Republican and Neo-Liberal Democratic assault on the last vestiges remaining of the New Deal and the Welfare State...

Sell outs....  * Spits metaphorically on ground *

Not even going into the cultural impacts of Hip-Hop and Heavy Metal, let alone Classic rock among my generation.

Much of the Millennial Generation has parents who are Gen-X, so if nothing else we are the generation that created current bonfire burning as our kids are raising the torch forward....


Proud to be a Gen-X

I was born in 1987, a very proud Millennial. Smiley
