An article in the Washington Post poses the question "What Comes Next After Generation X?" The surprising answer (at the very end of the article) is:
Generation Nintendo.
Play Station Generation.
a PS generation
I jokingly refer to it as "Generation Why?"
Switch: SW-5066-1525-5130
XBL: GratuitousFREEK
I would say, generation Y (since everyone is becoming "sensitive" and such) and also it's after x
And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

Sure. But what does it mean? Does that generation have any positive defining qualities that you can hold up and show the world? Or is MehGen?
I've heard Millenials thrown around a few times. But those would follow Generation Y (or WHY) as another poster pointed out.
The generations go like this. It's based on an 18 year cycle. The number of years it takes for a person to grow up and have their first kids. The boomer generation was started with all the soldiers returning home from war, starting up jobs and families. I was born at the tail-end of the Boomers so I have many qualities of both that and Gex-X. My mother, born close to the demarcation between the Silent and the Boomers has all that frugality and saving (clipping coupons) and financial worries that are prevalent in the those people (who lived through the depression, mostly) but for a little while she crossed over for a few years and we lived in a vegetarian, mostly nude, commune. I witnessed all of the Love generation and saw it's good and bad.
So far we have this:
| Builders (1908-1926) | Silent (1927-1946) | Boomers (1946-1964) | Generation X (1965-1983) | The Millennial Generation (1984-2004) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The greatest generation | The sandwich generation | The love generation | Slackers | Google generation | The gamers generation |
| The dying generation | The Depression generation | The me generation | The twenty/thirty somethings | The MySpace generation | The internet generation |
| The beat generation | Regan generation | Trailing-edge boomers | The generation after | The MyPod generation | Zeds/Zees |
| The booster generation | The beatniks | Leading-edge boomers | iGeneration | New silent generation | |
| The war generation | The hippies | The gap generation | Spoiled generation | The corporation generation | |
|
The hero generation The seniors |
The lost generation Breakthrough generation |
The latchkey kids
Generation X men/women |
The connected generation WHY generation Generation whY |
Generation vista The neo-Disney generation

One of my high school teachers called us the "Pop Tart Generation." I kind of liked that. He thought we were fucking retarded by the way.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
