So you were born between 1980 and 1992, technically making you part of Generation Y, the Millennial Generation, Generation Next, the Pepsi Generation, or whatever they’re calling it this week.
But do you feel like you aren’t of your generation?
Or, perhaps conversely, you were born before 1980, and, given what you’ve read about Gen Y, you feel like, yeah, you might be more Millennial than Baby Boomer.
The Red Eye, which is the Chicago Tribune’s free commuter daily, a paper geared towards Millennials, created a quiz to determine your knowledge of Generation Y. (It comes on the heels of a Pew study about 20-somethings.) Give it a whirl. Maybe you know more—or less—about Generation Y than you think.
Here’s the quiz. Good luck.

So that second wave of Boomers stopped getting lost in Europe?
Zing!

Interesting perspective. I, too, see sine Boomers acting younger than their years, but being a boomer myself, I can say that's what they tend to do. Ridiculous at times.
As for Millenials, I also see some of them imitating their Boomer parents, wearing fashions and repeating certain dogma that were inspired by the Woodstock generation (older boomers). Also kind of ridiculous at times.
In the interest of disclosure, I'm a member of the second cohort of boomers. We didn't protest or look for ourselves on trips to Europe. We were very skeptical of all that. We just drank beer and watched Animal House ;)

Are you part of this forgotten generation, Martin?
I skipped Gen X for a reason--because I thought it would kind of funny to imagine Baby Boomers wishing they were Millennials. Plus, I see members of the Baby Boom generation on Twitter or Facebook acting like they're Millennials.
LOL!

I think your reference to Baby Boomers should be replaced with Generation X. Because you completely skipped a generation. Or, maybe Generation X (formerly known as Baby Busters) should be referred to as the forgotten generation.
