I'm a late X'er (77). I relate more to X'ers but feel sort of a small amount of impostor syndrome because the early-mid X'ers are the ones that truly got screwed in terms of jobs coming out of school, which tends to be a lot of what drove the angst and attitude that defines the generation.

For kids from about 75 on the economy was starting to pick up again as they came out of high-school/college and we ramped into the Dot-Com era. So while I definitely identify with the culture in terms of music and clothing and fully appreciate where the morals and attitudes of my generation come from I do feel like I sort of 'skipped over' the actual struggles.

Breakfast schmekfast, look at the score for God's sake. It's only the second period and I'm winning 12-2. Breakfasts come and go, Rene, but Hartford, the Whale, they only beat Vancouver maybe once or twice in a lifetime."
