Chapter 2: How do generations influence societal behavior and marketing?
What about people on the cusp, like Xennials?
Yeah, I mean, supposedly cusp-born people identify with both to a certain degree, but I don't know. My sister doesn't have much boomer in her.
Right. Right. So that group that your sister just barely missed, the second half of the baby boomers, they have been dubbed Generation Jones by an author named Jonathan Pontell.
Jonathan Jones?
He basically said that he dubbed them that because they're a large anonymous generation. That makes sense. Jones is kind of a common last name in the United States. Yeah. That's another thing, too. We should say generations. The other reason why they seem kind of flibbity-jibbity is because we're talking almost exclusively about the United States here.
Yeah, of course.
At the most, the English-speaking Western world, at the most, right? So it's a large anonymous generation, Jones. Or, this one's so weird, that they are the generation that's Jones-ing after their unfulfilled expectations. They're Jones-ing for meaning or whatever.
Yeah.
I thought it might have been keeping up with the Joneses.

Chapter 3: How did the Greatest Generation shape modern views?
They put up with a lot more than our generation and more than Gen Z and Gen Alpha generation. I think they just had they took the brunt of recent history and they've just kind of plotted along and been like, fine, we'll be the ones. It's fine. You know, they haven't complained too much. Well, I should say they stopped complaining. They used to complain a lot.
And now they've just kind of grown into this respectable and I think self-respecting group as a whole, if generations were real.
Yeah, I totally agree. That's people that were born from 81 to 96. And again, there's a pretty big difference between and you can say this for a lot of the generations, obviously, but, you know, the ones that were on the cusp of either end, I think millennials may be the most pronounced as far as how different people born in 81 and people born in 96 are.
But that might just be me, you know, in my brain.
Yeah. Well, I think especially if you're coming of age in the time before computers or the time when computers are starting to be a thing.
Yeah, yeah.
That is definitely ā I mean, that's a pretty big dividing line for sure.
Yeah, I agree.
I think those elder millennials, too ā Yeah, I think there's something to say about straddling that line. I think it's a cool, it's just a neat thing to be able to have experience in both of those completely different realms of technological development.
