Generation Y

While often lumped together with millennials (as defined by Straus and Howe), the developmental phase of social interaction, which involved information technology's burgeoning impact on society, was overlooked. As information technology and Internet connectivity may have easily established a cohort of sorts among Internet users, Generation Y represented the crossroads between millennials who were well immersed in computer technology even as far as experiencing an institutionalization of computer education in academic curricula and Generation X members who were heavily immersed in broadcast media's influence and yet largely uninitiated in computer technology. Generation Y represents the link between the non-digital age society shaped by Generation X, as adolescents (MTV Generation), and the dawn of the Internet age that saw the transitioning of society to easily accessible online communities (Bulletin board system, MIRC, Yahoo! Groups, Internet forum) especially during the introduction of dial-up Internet access to households.

Generation Y entangled pop culture and digital community-building through bulletin board systems, online forums, website mailing groups, mIRC, ICQ, and other electronic modes of communication (which could be considered the predecessors to social media) into the digital age of today; even as most Generation X members lacked the responsiveness or the interest to immediately adopt the connective facilities offered by the Internet.

Leave Generation Y alone, they don't belong with Generation Z brats.

Generational Privilege

An extremely persuasive slogan in groups with low social responsibility. Used by those who can't fit in frames of civilized society. They blame so-called white supremacy to receive grants from the government. It highly supported by white American consumers.

Afro-American: Whites are oppressing my rights that's why I'll go on the rally.
Generational Privileged: Its cool tho. I'll go with you on da rally because I'm wigger.

The Aught Generation

The latest college graduate generation who keeps saying they aught to do important things but never do! This is from the "Mother Goose and Grimm" newspaper comic strip by Mike Peters.

The comic strip's Blurb is "The Aught Generation" and shows recent college grads thinking lines like: I ought to have a job! or I ought to get health insurance! or I ought to pay off my student loan! or I ought to move out of my parents house!

Generation X

Originally, the generation born (in the United States) in the late 1950s and 1960s (roughly corresponding with the eleven-year decline in U.S. birth rates starting in 1958; compare wordbaby bust/word) to whom a popular novel of this title (by Douglas Coupland) was dedicated; now usually applied to those born during the 10 to 12 years immediately following this.

The entertainment media have taken to regarding Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez as "Mr. and Mrs. Generation X."
