GenX Feeling Its Oats...

One page each from my Zeezer Bible (100 pg) and my Snowflake Bible (7 pg). 
Published in the same volume. It took 880 pages to lay out the catastrophe of 
the Baby Boomers. Their successors are just sad. Linda Cerullo is mistaken.

Over at FB, the estimable Linda Cerullo is linking to an article at (appropriately) Vanity Fair. This is a quote from the linked piece:

"It’s become clear to me that if this nation has any chance of survival, of carrying its traditions deep into the 21st century, it will in no small part depend on members of my generation, Generation X, the last Americans schooled in the old manner, the last Americans that know how to fold a newspaper, take a joke, and listen to a dirty story without losing their minds."

Don’t think they’ll be saving the world anytime soon. That’s a pretty short list of “traditions.”


btw, the cast of the GenX annunciation of itself, The Breakfast Club (as shown above), features future stars of the generation. Interesting to note that the college experience of the group consists of one year in total.
