As a late GenX 90s kid: Fuck you for forgetting us AGAIN.
But this specifically is calling out getting the title of millennial, why would you expect gen X to be a part of the meme?
We were 90s kid first, we fucking founded the council.
I'm not trying to start shit, but wouldn't all people who were 90's kids start the council at the same time due to how time flows?
If we are adopting the 'media culture' view, then you need to at least be around 6 to start making the abstract connections necessary to make lasting memories about media.
So in 91, some '90's kids' are turning six and able to effectively even be cognizant of a council, whereas some 90s kids are yet to be born.
Or all generational cadres are made up arbitrary bullshit but if you watched Ducktales AND Rescue Rangers, and knew bugs bunny when he was still racist, then it is likely you and I will have a lot more in common than 90s kids who knew Spongebob and Blues Clues.
