    You can infer the age you entered society from the age you left the womb.

    That doesn’t work. Technically I’m a Boomer, but I act and think completely like a Gen-Xer.

    In fact growing up I used to give Boomers crap myself, until I got more wise. They acted completely different from me, based on the times they grew up in.

      I didn’t come up with the age range, but it’s been well established for a while now. Someone else told me about “Generation Jones”, which is basically just the younger half of the Boomer generation I guess. I feel like that’s splitting hairs, but who knows, maybe it makes some sort of sense to you?
