26 July 2009 Mistaking The Youth
Being young and being a Gen Y (or an iGen for that matter) are not the same thing. The two are correlated, not dependant. Don’t confuse a mistake of youth as a Gen Y characteristic.
Every generation makes mistakes when they’re young. Don’t stereotype on something that applies to everyone. Even you.

I think there is a post surrounding this point being the difference between demographic and psychographic segmentation, & the usefulness of the latter.

And the complete lack of usefulness of the former. ;]

I am a gen nothing – i refuse to be labelled when Half of one generation are geriatrics and the other half of the other are over-confident, do-gooding little freaks. We are entities, existing in a time – space continuum, born in our each respective year. Damn marketers! :p What has happened to music, will happen to us…
Punk rock ska core emo pop thrash thrash core skate core ska core soft rock rock pop pop rock screamo….. what a joke.
What happens after Gen Z? Does it reset to A? That's not fair.
