The culture of any generation is defined by the generation before it, that's why Gen Xers are the most depressingly suburban and forgotten about generation, not the boomers, because while boomers love themselves more than anyone loves themselves, nobody glamorized boomerism more than Gen Xers, who grew up with more direct exposure than younger generations; they just didn't have the same numbers.

Likewise, most of our prominent entrepreneurs are all Gen X try-hards who found fortune because of the consumption patterns that millennials adopted and were in the right place at the right time to capitalize on it. Millennial consumption patterns of course having been heavily influenced by gen xers and boomers by proxy, the few that got that good job and kept it forever are quite happy to upgrade their iPhone every year, buy TVs and cars for no reason, and move to the boonies not realizing that Gen Xers mistakenly gave up their sense of community to follow in the boomers' footsteps; they'll borrow and pay anything possible for the privilege.

Anyway, I'm already working on my Gen X material.
