My favorite part about generations is how the cut off changes with every source I look at. Like, technically I'm a millennial, but I was born in '81 which is only sometimes part of the millennial age range and never part of the gen x age range. It's almost as if generations are entirely fabricated and not real.

I'm a 1995 kid and I think of myself as being right at the tail-end of what can reasonably be called a millenial

Yeah, my GF and I were born in 96 but both in fairly rural areas so our experience aligns more with being millennial. I think it depends a lot on the context of your personal upbringing, but I definitely agree with your sentiment.

If you were old enough to grasp how 9/11 changed the world as we know it and have clear memories from that day, you're a millennial. If you had to be taught about it then you're not.

Everyone has their own definition but that's always been the cutoff that's stuck with me.
