I was on MySpace in 1999, when i was leaving for college and now my 18 yr old is about the leave for college this fall. So yeah... 

someone on here said they were “over” Facebook because all of the “old people” have joined and its boring now. 
And i started second guessing if i should even be on this platform (that I miss!!) because i would be considered old.
🤷🏻‍♀️

I was born in 1988 so I still count as a Millenial.

Not old enough for Gen X :D
Sorry :P

I’m right on the edge of elder millenial and Gen X.


Statistically speaking, y’all Gen Xers are pretty rare

I can't reply to everyone specifically but thanks for the responses. It is nice to know there are some people on here aren't just "old enough to remember MySpace" but also old enough to remember a world before the internet. I even have 'Ceremony' beat: I was born before we walked on the moon ; )


We might still be outnumbered (on both sides of the generational timeline) but we know what we know.

Stay Strong Gen-X !! !!

I'm like SusieQ84  here - millennial but my parents were very low tech and my childhood in the 90s was more like the 80s, so I had more of a Gen X or "Xennial" childhood.

I was born old.  I need acted young, even when I was!  

I still play music / videos of The Cure, Echo & The Bunnymen, Johnny Marr, Morrissey, New Order, Psychedelic Furs, The Smiths, etc.  I still dig Disco, New Wave, Yacht Rock, and that groovy stuff.

Go back to Facebook or reminisce about Friendster, bro! (Just kidding ). . .I was born in 89 so I think that makes me a "Millennial". . .I am kinda surprised there are any Gen Xers or Boomers on SpaceHey I thought most of y'all would be trapped in the Cult named Zuckerbergville.

Born in very early 1982, so on the edge of Millennial and Gen X.


Millennials I get. Gen X too. Anyone older or younger? Not so much.

Xennial here (late Gen X/early Millennial) but I relate to and have more things in common with Gen Xers than I do Millennials.

Depending on which chart you look at I am a Gen X. I've been around since 86 but we lived pretty low tech for my first 7-9 years. The custom profiles are what made here and MySpace click.

You are not alone!  Another Gen X here. I hate FB. This blast from the past is pretty cool so far.   :) Glad I'm not the only fossil out here.

Gen X present! 🙋🏽‍♀️

Just turned 50 a couple of weeks ago & still feel like a teenager in the 80s. An incredibly sluggish, achey, myopic, bloated, held-together-by-strings-and-bubblegum teenager.

There are other elderly people here, like myself, who remember what's the relation between a ballpoint pen and a cassette.

We do exist. Though this post is pretty old so I'm guessing most of the people in here aren't active anymore.
