Gen X.
Has anyone been watching the current "Survivor" ? It's Gen X vs Millennials. Interesting the different ways they go about challenges.
When Probst asked a Gen X: 'What's a big difference between the 2?" He answered: "Our generation didn't get participation trophies, we either won or we lost...and learned something from it."
Technology has caused the biggest gap between these 2, more than anything in generations throughout history. IMO.

1983, Millennial by the letter of the law but more aptly described as X-ennial. I was in my early 20s before Facebook existed and was in my mid to late 20s before cell phones, Facebook, and Twitter were massively popular. Gas was $1 a gallon when I was 16 and nearly everyone that could had a car. When I was 13 before I ever had been on the internet or had it at home, doing homework as a child involved using old edition encyclopedias. When I was very young most people had vinyl record players and cassette tapes, around age 10 CDs were the 'future of music' but by my early 20s digital music files started taking over.
