Nothing much i suppose.

I’m like from that post baby boom pre gen-x generation, you know the “nameless widget generation”. Well i’m getting the benfit of watching the baby boomers really show their hand as truely disconnected, rather more impressed by style than subtance, generally ADD (can’t even read an email over two sentences long and deal with it). They had this whole flower child thing which seems like quite the cover act now. They’re re-writin’ history at an alarming rate.

Then there’s the gen x, y, z’s . They are an interesting lot. I just read a boston globe article about them being the most self absorbed generation (what with myspace, youtube, etc.). It’s all about showing off yourself, hooking up, how many friends you’ve got. Seems like a recipie for disaster, a greater depth of style over substance with even more emphasys on themselves.

But i have to say that I’m a hell of a lot more impressed with the gen’s than the BB’s. The BB’s seem driven by fear, no spine to me.

The gen’y’s have their shallow lot like all generations but i’ve met more that are full of good common sense opinions, care about the outcome far reaching issues (and not just about how it effects themselves BTW).

I don’t know, once again lucky that i can shimmy out of taking a position because hey, i’m a widget anyway (that’s gen-widget to you).

What are you if you were born 1n 1961? (besides old and cranky)

Topic for next post: I think more on why people suck in general.
