Hello fellow Oregon Trail generation, we now have a name to avoid being lumped with millenials.

I'm tired of being given a new generational name every 6 months. This shit is getting old.

I'm declaring myself the "Fuck you all, I'm better than all of you" generation.
 
I still remember some of those, and I think one particular shoot from YM or something with some serious nipplage, which is rather impressive considering the source.

....or maybe I'm confusing Yasmine with Kelly kaPOWski

that reminds me....change NKOTB in the poll with Saved by the Bell, though some years later, and that pretty much covers everyone. Millenials never watched SbtB.
 
I should be embarrassed but damn I would still wear these.
Those look like pants.
While in general, I am opposed to pants, I think these are MUCH better than what passes for pants in today's world.

I can get fat man sized 44 pants, and yet, the legs are so damn skinny, my calve and thigh muscles can't fit in the legs ...
Why the hell they make pants with that big of a waist have such tiny places for legs?

You don't remember Jams?

wtf, man?
 
All of the points in the OP can be applied to me and I was born in 88.

These titles are just made up tools to help insecure and stupid people feel like they're better than others.

You do realize many millennials are in their 30s right? Of course they've watched Saved by the Bell.

SbtB, the College Years don't count!
 
Born in 75 and those all fit me except the New Kids one. I work a New Kids Suck t-shirt when they were blowing up. I was a total nerd but somehow now that I look back on it I was totally cool doing that. Who knew? Not the girls at my school that's for sure
 
Hold on a second there Skippy.

First, you can blame all the parents that keep thinking their kid is something special and are meant to be in college. The majority aren't. The majority can't accomplish simple tasks like tieing their shoes let alone pass advanced classes for a needed STEM field. You drive up and inflate demand with no overall increase in supply of schools and what are you left with? Increased costs.

Second, rich people are the ones that actually pay their debt. The fact that my kid won't be able to get loans from the government because of my income is absurd. So instead of having a decent pool as any insurance company would, they are effectively asking "Lets get the biggest risk we can find and give them all loans! That sounds like a great idea!"

First of all those parents need to see if their kids can actually score well on the SAT or ACT before thinking their kid needs to be a doctor or engineer.

Second while your income is nice and absurd and that solves one of your kid's challenge (having no idea if they have taken the admissions tests yet, nor do really need to know) it's much more likely for a high-school graduate to have to worry about those costs and there's no shortage of lenders who are happy to be predatory now either.
Which goes back to previous generations voting like oblivious idiots.
