As usual GenX gets skipped. But whatever. Apathy is our lot in life.

Where I am from, we don't really use these terms. I'm sorry for offending you by ommiting something.

Ah, I was making a joke. In the US, “Generation X” was told repeatedly from its inception that it was apathetic, specifically.

I also find these terms a bit maddening

Edit: for the record, I was in no way offended, but I realize that probably didn’t come across well in my comment
