#GenXer
As a GenXer most of the 80's music was leftover boomer relics, but Depeche Mode and everything adjacent were certainly made for us. #MusicSky
Depeche Mode’s “Music for the Masses” turns 39 today.

Of the single “Strangelove”, Alan Wilder said: “I can't even say how many times we had to redo it. We had to change the bass line at least 100 times .. We wanted to do it well — and all that for a result which, in my opinion, is not excellent.”

As a GenXer who heard SA stories in college, yes, it was going on back then to, & not just at colleges & not just the frat “boys.” Most men won’t police other men who can’t control their dicks.

This GenXer must be an exception because I never particularly liked them save a few songs.

F both TG. Never not in a million years would I, a flaming liberal GenXer, vote for that POS. Absolutely every Dem/Indy I know is really flippin sick of the 'consultant class' and "centrist Dems"

related: as a late genxer it has been super annoying to see genx people now labeling our generation as supposedly tough when most of my adolescent life was hearing silent gen and boomers telling us that we were soft little crybabies
The other thing to notice is that all of the people who "remember" that world were CHILDREN in the 1950s. They want to go back to their CHILDHOOD, where things were "simpler" because they were CHILDREN.

They do this while claiming to be tough "realists" & the rest of the ruling class lets them.

As a GenXer, I believe Ready Player One was the first thing that ever made me feel deeply ashamed about being nostalgic.

why would genXers be the ones who have forgotten? just asking as a Genxer. because if it has to do with the Canadians burning down the whitehouse, then that is because we were taught it was the british who did it.

In my opinion, words and actions are vastly different, especially in a social situation involving alcohol. Yes, people who are already familiar will be a bit looser in conversation. But unwelcome physical contact is never ok!
Of course, I am a bawdy GenXer.

This is the last time I’m going to vote for Democrat establishment incumbents here in Virginia if they will continue to accept $$$ from AIPAC and they continue to support Satanyahu and Israel. I’m a common sense GenXer and I don’t want my tax dollars going to Israel and bombs.

As a genxer, I am aware that a large portion of my generation sucks. We also got the heaviest dose of childhood lead exposure due to leaded gasoline emissions.

I was wondering if American genx got an even bigger dose bc of car dependency and culture.

GenXer, and I wait until I see the total to make sure there are no surprises or a sales price didn't register (yes, the pooter can make errors).
Can't say the same for the gas pump; they do swipe before the fill.
over the next few years you are going to see kids posting infinite variations of “millennials always wait until the end of the transaction to scan their card 🙄” and it is your sacred duty to not let that turn you into a turbochud

My entire doom room floor skipped class because Sally Jesse Raphael was doing Klan Moms and their Klan Daughters, so as a GenXer I can’t say that really much of anything changed between 1999 and now.

<--- also clueless.
This GenXer spends a lot of time online and while I'm up on memes, news, TikTok trends, fashion, beauty, movies/shows, gossip, I have found I know very little about current music. And I'm fine with that.

A pissed off GenXer with a live mic and the authority of the most powerful office in the west…the possibilities are endless. 🤣
