My curiosity was sparked following a comment on a previous post...

Can you tell by a persons comments which generation a player is from?

tbh i think we should all be a bit more uderstanding of each other. i consider comments like "OK B" to be as offendive as calling someone the n word or the R word when refering to people as slow or the F word in a homophobiac way.

It seems age dicrimination has become so popular these days

as a feminist there are a lot of sexist undertones in this game and my goal is to change that one day at a time :)
I stand up to all bullies even though people have told me to stop posting :)
stand for something or youl fall for everything

Have a pleasant day

My sweet summer child.

If you're still playing in 30 days, ping me, we'll talk.

Don't worry about the bounties starting after 14 days, you'll get used to them.

The "OK boomer" just proves how inept a person is. They have nothing to say, so they recycle an even poorer retort made by an upset New Zealand MP when provoked in a debate. It certainly isn't Mark Twain or Margret Thatcher in style. More Sponge Bob Square Pants.

As for being offended. Look at any word long enough and you can find something 'upsetting' or 'offensive'. What you do is don't. Rise above this. Use your time doing other things. Stop believing the 70% botted Twatter feed or the pro-something media or what so and so says (because ironically, it probably isn't right).

As for understanding? Perhaps first we need to understand that the world isn't actually full of ism's, bullies, pedos, psychos, rampant meat eaters, female haters, men haters, etc etc first then we can move on.

Your years are a bit Google has it listed as this.


As of 2019, the breakdown by age looks like this:
  • Baby Boomers: Baby boomers were born between 1944 and 1964. They're current between 55-75 years old (76 million in U.S.)
  • Gen X: Gen X was born between 1965 - 1979 and are currently between 40-54 years old (82 million people in U.S.)
  • Gen Y: Gen Y, or Millennials, were born between 1980 and 1994. They are currently between 25-39 years old.
    • Gen Y.1 = 25-29 years old (31 million people in U.S.)
    • Gen Y.2 = 29-39 (42 million people in U.S.)
  • Gen Z: Gen Z is the newest generation to be named and were born between 1995 and 2015. They are currently between 4-24 years old (nearly 74 million in U.S.)
Not quite sure why my generation is so short but you made it two years shorter!

B, seriously, going through life being offended at everything is no way to life. Just wave your middle finger up and proudly and stop giving a shit

The Strauss-Howe generational theory posits different generation timeframes for different countries/regions.
Most notably, the US is about 20 out of sync with Europe because the US Civil War - placing people born on the same day in different generation cohorts.

Both sets of dates given above are US-centric and don't align with the original theory.
