Hey I am Generation X.
Anyone who was BORN between 1965- 1979, we are the last generation that played outside until dark.
We are the FIRST to play video games & the LAST to record songs off the radio onto a cassette tape, we loved roller skating on Friday and Saturday nights.
We survived the 80’s with big hair and the era of extravagant everything.
We took walks with friends without worry of being robbed, we watched cartoons on Saturday mornings while eating a bowl of cereal… we programmed the VCR before anyone else… we remember learning how to use a computer for the first time, we played Atari & Nintendo & Collecovision.
We are the generation of Soul Train, Gilligan’s Island, Dukes of Hazard, Scooby-Doo, Charlie’s Angels, Wonder Woman, Love Boat, Three’s Company, All in the Family, Little House on the Prairie, Donny and Marie, Happy Days, & Good Times, The Jefferson’s, What’s Happening, Sanford and Son, Gimmie A Break, Different Strokes, The Cosby Show, A Different World, 227, In Living Color, Soul Train……..We traveled in cars w/o seat belts or airbags, rode in the backs of MTA Buses & lived without beepers or cell phones. We did not have flat screens, surround sound, I-Pads, Facebook and Twitter…and we had a GREAT time ALL the time with each other!
Most importantly, we spent time together without a phone in our hands and had loads of stuff to talk about. Most of us look great for our age. Get into it!!
