We Millennials are not the "kids", anymore.

Getting detached from the youth culture? I thought that that was a Boomer phenomenon around 1980 when the pop culture went from being made for Boomers to being made for Generation X. So that is nothing new.

So I learned something. Maybe I'm not so old, after all.

Today I definitely feel detached from the youth culture, which today is entirely different from Generation X. Today it is the Smartphone Culture, and those younger than 40 especially would be like fish out of water without their technology. I don't feel that today's society could ever cope with a 1930s style Great Depression. Do any of you?
