Does it sound like an excuse to not give a fuck about the world? It isn't. Ask many liberal baby boomers and they'll openly admit that their generation screwed up later generations. What they won't tell you is that their greed, which has turned into legacy wealth, shall be passed down to their progeny -- the Y-Generation/the Millenials. Well then, the only generation that has been screwed is the X-Gen.
The baby boomers -- the yuppies and their Gordon Gekko-worshiping of greed that drove materialistic consumerism into a mountain of personal debt and false claims of self-reliance -- are to blame. Their embrace of Reaganism and the continued idiocy of the love affair with low taxes and the dismantling of the welfare system of the Great Society has left us with...the Shithole Society.
Grunge was our zeitgeist. Come as you are. We said, "fuck you very much, corporate assholes."
And the goddamn baby boomers fucking commercialized it and turned it into a fashion statement.
Fuck the world.
That's what Generation X is about. Fucking reality bites.
