I dunno man, I knew what the song was about when it came out. People just don't listen to lyrics. This can go into the ever growing pile of catchy songs with subversive overtones. Like, it's not even hidden "end up like a dog that's been beat too much, so you spend 1/2 your life covering up."

I think it's pretty much the norm that each generation, as it gets older, becomes the "worst generation" when the previous worst generation ahead of it is (mostly) gone. That means you don't have to worry, Millennials and Gen-Z; your turn is coming.

Nah, older millennial are pushing 45 now and my generation only gets more compassionate as it gets older and Gen Z's issues come from the younger section of the generation Boomers and older Gen X are bitter and angry and support just, the worst people and the worst ideas, as a rule

He may even be the exception that proves the rule. Everybody hates him.

I think a lot of it is survivor bias; the vilest shitbags end up with the most money and so they live longer and have louder voices.

There’s definitely an argument for that, though I think the argument for Boomers being the worst is still strong. 🫤

Lot of assumptions from a brittle little bitch offended about a random offhand comment about Gen X. But please, continue to demonstrate your soft underbelly and easily triggered emotions for everyone here. Get BIG MAD for us.

Whoa! Don't mess with Gen Xers! They're TOUGH! They played OUTSIDE! And drank from HOSES! The TV had to play PSA's asking their parents if they knew where their kids were?! They GREW UP before THE INTERNET and all the BANDS and TV shows and MOVIES were better back then!

LOL. I'm pretty sure I remember all that, but not cool enough for the title when they finally decided on the actual cutoff dates between X and Y. I barely fall on the side that lets me talk mad shit to sensitive Gen Xers.

Exactly! Wasn't hard for us. But these clowns gotta make it their personality and vote in Trump for a second term. Thank God they're the smallest generation.

Seems self explanatory, GenX is objectively the Trumpiest generation and that alone makes us the worst.

Because for my entire fucking life GenX (and I primarily mean men) voted for Bush, Dole, Bush, Bush, Trump, Trump, Trump by the highest percentage of any demographic including fucking boomers. That seems real self explanatory.

I could hardly stand grunge at the time but nearly all my friends like it. There's only a handful of songs that I liked, probably less than 10.

If you were 14 when this song came out you are Gen X. But what do I know. I was 28. Too old to do math.
