It's kinda silly. I was born very early 90s, but since I was so young I don't actually remember much about that time. My teenager years were in 00s, so I much more identify as "millenial" or 90s baby rather than 90s kid

Totally. The difference between generations is cultural not time based.

Millennials are old enough remember where they were on 9/11. Similar to GenX and the Challenger explosion in 86. Not sure what the zoomer equivalent is -maybe Obama? For Gen alpha it'll be remembering the pandemic starting.

Millenials can't remember life before wireless communication.

Zoomer's can't remember life before the internet.

Alpha can't remember a time before smart phones.

Gen Beta wont remember a time before AI (shudders)

Not sure about boomers/genx... probably something about the vietnam war or colour tv.
