Wayne made my good list of actors with a Stargate cameo. I didn't go ape for Wayne until I saw him sing (and dance) Michael Jackson's _Thriller_ on postmodern jukebox in a manner that let me hear the lyrics.
If Lovett sits any higher on that seat he is going to be on the backrest. As an aside, Wayne B's episode of Make Some Noise (over on Dropout) is god damn legendary. And a second aside, this Millennial knows he has dyscaculia AND dysnomia - even if he has to look them up each time.
@@sir_vix Have you seen “Night School” with Kevin Hart and Tiffany Haddish? Kevin’s character has Dyscalculia, among other learning disorders, in it. Campy humor, but cool that he made us feel seen in the movie.
It's more of a vibe thing anyway. Biden is technically a member of the silent generation but he has a lot more Boomer energy. Harris like Obama are really close to Gen X as they're on the cusp
Born 1964. Boomers 1946-1964 so I agree she is on the edge, leaning more to Gen X. All generations get a bad rap, regardless, so I am curious to see how Gen Xers get slammed as much as Boomers have in recent years. Just be nice!!!
I’ll disagree with all of you. While the experts think boomers end at ‘64, generally speaking, those of us from ‘57-64 don’t identify with the boomers nor with X. Some call us Gen Jones. We came of age in the mid to late 70s and were in our 20s through the 80s. We didn’t take part in the counter culture, Woodstock, Vietnam etc. I was 12 when Nixon resigned…and I didn’t care. Our music wasn’t the Beatles, but the Eagles, Supertramp, Fleetwood Mac, Madonna, Huey Lewis, Hornsby and the like. Anyway, look up Gen Jones. My siblings and friends agree with Jonathan Pontell credited on the wiki page. And there is a pic of Kamala there!
My parents (who got married a few years before having me, their eldest) separated when i was in 4th grade or so and finalized the divorce a few years later. They were able to get back to a good friendship after another few years, then (after my mother divorced her 2nd husband) started dating, and they are now married again. So my dad is my mom's 1st and 3rd husband, and my mom is my dad's 1st and 2nd wife. Oh, also, i'm a millennial (born in '81, so just barely) and i know about Dyscalculia, but that might just be because i have it as well.
As millennials, we looked up to Gen xers. It made us looking forward to getting older. Now it seems like gen zers/millennials just want to remain permanently infantilized.
Aw, she's so beautiful and funny as hell. I met Maile's momma on one of my personal worst days ever, but with one tiny glimmer of light... I got to tell Wayne Brady that I was a big fan. Tiny Maile sat in her stroller, as her dad signed my boarding ticket. They were both very kind, and helped me escape my tired mind and body as my three young children and I navigated our way to the next gate to take us Lanai. And that was my first day living in Hawaii.
I shit you not after they yelled “Danny devito!” I got an ad for Jersey mikes featuring devito. Coincidence? Always loved Wayne Brady. Even as a kid I think he was my absolute favorite on Whose Line. Thought he was cute too.
Lovett, Sweetheart, take it from a know-it-all: Boomers 1946-64, Gen-X 1964-82, Millennials 1982-2000, Gen-Z 2000-18, Alpha 2018-36. Ask your favourite J-School grad. I was born the same year as Kamala & Tim, and can confirm that we are, indeed, GenXers. We have potty-mouths; we'd swear all the time if we didn't hold back on 90% of the fucks we want to give.
The usual breakdown I see is: Silent Generation - 1925 to 1945 Boomers - 1946 to 1964 (Generation Jones) Gen X - 1965 to 1980 Millennials - 1981 to 1996 Gen Z - 1997 to 2012 Gen Alpha - 2013 to 2025? Kamala is October 1964 so Gen X is claiming her.
@@francescaa8331 I'm good with KH being Gen X! I thought that they chose the years because of the birth rates (the baby boom). But maybe if they're trying to even out the years of each generation, then they'd pick '61 as the start of X. I mostly see Generation Jones as those early '60s years. '59 or '60 to '65ish. They seem to be a mashup of Boomers and Xers.
@lynnhettrick7588 Yours is standard. Their stats teacher would tsk at putting 1964 in two bins. Still ticked off someone with no imagination rushed to name the post-millennials. I like the broader category Quaranteens for anyone whose education was interrupted by the pandemic. That could encompass roughly 1999 to 2015.
That trolley only makes sense if you change it to the "one person is someone you know you" because it becomes a test of your moral aptitude in times of stress. People who are work in positions of first response and UN world disaster are trained in this type of thinking.
No, it still makes sense without that variant, as it's still about agency/blame. It's "do you actively make a decision that kills someone, or do you do nothing and more people die, but you aren't as actively responsible for their deaths?"
@@JDMimeTHEFIRST A younger millennial? As an older millennial we technically had “apps”, but they were just for light stalking. Dating was still 100% knowing someone and asking them out, or being “matched” with them by a friend.
What the hell was w/ that trolley problem diagram? Based on that, regardless of the choice, all SIX people would be killed because the track is in a loop!
The trolley problem is such a dumb thought experiment. Who put me in charge of a trolley?!? That person is responsible for death, not me, I didn't agree to be a trolley engineer...
The Silent Generation didn't get a president from their generation until the youngest members were 76. Don't give up Gen X. You can do it! Only 32 more years.
As an elder millennial, I feel like half Gen X😅. Most of my friends are Gen X and my two sisters. Plus, I hate Zuckerberg. I love elder millennial and Gen X humor (think Wet Hot American Summer and Strangers with Candy, Sarah Silverman Program). But also millennial humor like Pen15, Search Party, and Los Espookys.
@@JoshuaTootellheard of the animated show Daria? Because that was on in the same time period as Strangers with Candy. Late 90s-early 00s. Just because you’re not familiar with it, doesn’t mean OP’s point is invalid. They’re late gen-x, which overlaps with early millennial. I’m on the older end of being a millennial (born in mid 80s), the 90s ended up shaping all my lifelong interests
Obama and Kamala are Generation Jones, the REAL middle child. It's like "Zillenial" only it lasted for over a decade, from 1954 to 1965. We're the ones that never fitted anywhere. Boomers got the Happy Days vibe and Xers claim the Brady Bunch. We were too young for Woodstock but too old for rap (I was too old for disco, but I don't think that was an age thing.) Millenials were latchkey kids, but we never even got a key; our doors just stayed unlocked. Our mothers were the first generation that became working women because of economic necessity, not just because the men were at war (which they also did. My parents' sisters and sisters in law moved to Detroit to build cars and things while the men were away.) Our mothers worked to buy groceries. As a generation, not just as the unfortunate minority that worked before our time. And our alienation? Millenials are claiming it. We don't even get to own our own emotions. 🤷
I’m Gen X. I never played outside til the lights came on. That was bullshit. It was hot and dangerous out there and I preferred to read books. My mom wouldn’t allow me to ride my bike on the street. We lived on a rural route dead end road and the only other homes down there were relatives. Later when my kids were little on that same road, they rode their bikes and walked and fished. I hate being outside. Gen X weren’t all doing that shit. They were sat on their asses in front of a huge fucking TV. 📺 their parents told them they would hurt their eyesight from watching so much tv. Gen X wasn’t outside like they’d have you believe.
Dear Mr Brady. Does THIS appeal to You? It is the African American version of Pinocchio. You can see the You Tube pitch under the title of "Pan-0ky-oh!" Thank you for your time and consideration of this project. Respectfully and Gratefully Gregg Oreo Long Beach CA Etats Unis
Hey Gen Z we've left you the hell alone, leave us the hell alone. You want beef? We'll bring the beef. You might regret not having left us alone. I like Gen Z, but things can change. Every single generation has whined about how hard things were when they were young, in 10 years you will be telling kids that you used to have to do your own homework, or something else as absurd.
I THINK JD 's views come from his upbringing. His " female" issues revolve around his mother, he see s to have a " fantasy " of how family dynamics work.
@@MatthewTheWanderer "[Divorce] freed us up to be the best friends and parents we can be. Marriage isn't always the solution." "I think JD Vance would disagree; he thinks that people should be unhappily bound together in miserable, wars-of-attrition-like marriages. Sort of WWI, France vs Germany, trench warfare style marriages." How does that context not tell you it means "marriages where you're always fighting like you're at war"?
so the gen z person is complaining about the gen x person listing their generational traits...immediately after the gen z person listed all their generational traits? she seems...complicated. 😬
What? no one ever heard of Gen Jones? 1954 - 1965 (tail end of the Boomers -- but we aren't anything like them, overlapping the start of Gen X -- but Gen X thinks we're Boomers) Kamala and Walz are Gen Jones. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Jones
