What is Generation Y and how did it get its name?

I've often wondered why they call kids born around/between 1980 and 1995 "Generation Y." I got the Generation X thing, but was the world so devoid of inspiration they couldn't think of anything but copy Gen X's moniker?


Now I know! It SHOULD should have been obvious, and it really is if you think about it.

Not so much "Y" as... "WHY????? :roll: :lol:
LOL, good one!

LOL! Too funny!

My kids are forbidden to have their pants down to their knees like that. LOL
Perfect explanation! :D :D :D
It's funny to me that this style is still in (if it is!). The guys wore their pants like that in high school in the 90s...Bad look then, bad look now! :D
My son was in high school in the 90's and came home in a friend's pair of baggy jeans. I was going to get groceries and insisted he go along and help. He was carrying way too many bags to get finished quicker and those jeans and underwear he was so proud of earlier were less appealling as he was walking right out of them in the middle of the parking lot 8) I just kept walking, ignorring his pleas for help and let him waddle to the car with his jeans around his ankles. We really never had too much of an issue with that fad after that :wink:
Just the jeans fell? Phew!

Good Mommy to keep mouth shut (how did you keep from laughing?) Best learned lesson is lesson learned on own.
I was more angry than amused if I can remember that far back. When he finally got to the car and got his drawer's back up he looked at me and said " you could have helped me ". I told him I did, I thought of leaving his a$$ ( literally ) in the parking lot to walk home. Dad and I did have a good laugh later.
You are so right, the best lessons are those learned the hard way.
