My ringtone was a funky chiptune version of O Green World by Gorillaz.

    To me, the earliest Millennials were the class of 2000. It always felt like there was extra pressure on us because we were going to be the first of a new millennium.

    The divide was especially stark in my high school. The class of 99 - the last of Gen X - were kicked out of every pep rally and assembly for being disruptive, while the other classes were all well behaved and didn’t really understand why they were acting this way.

      Wait I’ve never heard this divide before. I’m one of the last years of gen x, and we were definitely disruptive and anti establishment for school shit like assemblies. I figured all high school kids hated authority and rules. Did millenials not have this attitude? Why?
