Imo, there's a sandwich date range from around 1976 to 1982 where you either identify as Gen X or Gen Y/millennial.

I'm someone in that gap and identify much more closely with millennials than with the Gen X slackers, though a lot of my childhood friends also in that gap identify more with Gen X.

Perhaps it's a combination of my job, that i feel i grew up with (along with?) the internet because my parents were pretty fast in getting connected, and that i have older siblings who are very much Gen X as in leaving college during very difficult job times in the early 90s, and I never shared their experiences.
