Worst Personal Reflection on One's Generation Ever

Wonder if the writer ever drank from a hose.

 

I'm guessing he did, given the semi-rural defunct chicken farm he mentions.

Like me, he wasn't ruined until he went to graduate school.

 

Dang right.

Nobody is talking about Gen X. Gen Xers say they like it that way.

• Everyone's talking about boomers, millennials, and Gen Zers, but Gen X is often left out of the conversation.
• Many Gen Xers say they like it this way, and they just want to be left alone.

 

I thought there were only three generations in the conversation. The Olds, the Youngs and the Cools.

 

LOL Generation X started it all, thanks to Douglas Coupland. Used to be all anyone talked about.

 

This story announces itself as pretentious garbage before its first word. The author has two middle initials.
It's so bad that it reads like parody.

 

We weren't even supposed to post here today. (Different characters, I know, but still)

 

Love it.
Also:
“You know, there's a million fine looking women in the world, dude.But they don't all bring you lasagna at work.Most of 'em just cheat on you.”

Also also:
“Pack o' wraps, my brotherman, time to kick back, drink some beers and shmoke some weed!”

 

The oral sex exchange is still my favorite.

"My girlfriend sucked 37 dicks!"
"In a row?"

"Hey try not to suck any dick on the way thru the parking lot!"
(Slacker begins walking towards her)
"Hey! Hey you!"

 

So good.

I went down a Kevin Smith rabbit hole when I saw Clerks 3 (which I enjoyed) a while back. His interviews and college talks are great. And there’s a lot of them from the self-described media whore.

Kevin Smith is definitely in my personal Gen X Hall of Fame.

 

I was just thinking I need to see Clerks III. At least one friend said he really didn't like it, but I'll always give Smith the benefit of the doubt (that said, I need to see all his horror films since Red State, which I really liked). Chasing Amy is a quietly great movie. That ending, man, that's a subtle crusher. "Oh, just some guy I knew."

I'm with you on Smith being in a Gen X Hall of Fame. Hates dealing with the bullshit of corporate life and just wants to make enough money with his art to be happy...that's as Gen X as you can get. We'll get around to building that Hall of Fame. Maybe tomorrow. Or maybe not. I don't know.
