its like the anti-gamer keyboard...haha (so "yes")

I totally get it. I used to prefer quiet keyboards for work (silicon dome keys) Now I have Cherry MX keys on a Chroma keyboard.

I did. My kid went there two. I love how historic Richmond is.

Another cool set of books revolving around Richmond were written by Alex Painter. In this case, it's about the history of the Negro Leagues in Richmond. Cool stuff!

People don't appreciate what an amazing history Richmond, IN has. I went to college there in the 90's and still get back from time to time. I was not aware of this documentary, thanks for sharing it!

I remember the first time a Christian said to me ‘But, if you aren’t a good god-fearing person, what stops you from raping and killing?’ I was fully speechless for 30 seconds. And then the creeping horror of realizing I was talking to an absolute psychopath set in.

The funniest part is that it's not really a joke. But saying it triggers them into get bigoted response.

Our list of sins extends beyond that...but that one, in particular, is egregious.

Just a reminder. This coming recession and market meltdown will be our 4th and 3rd, respectively. No other working generation will be able to say.

We've been through a lot.

We are overlooked, everyone knows it. But as the volume grows about the struggles Millennials and Z's have had... it's good to be reminded that things weren't always better for prior Generations.

I like the kids today, they are cynics. We did that. It's our legacy.

It's not pitting folks against each other. It's merely a reminder that GenX continues to be overlooked.

Keep us in mind.

Or don't.

Whatever.

It's late and I've got work in the morning.

I remember hitchhiking with my 16 year old babysitter to the mall. I was 7 then. I was convinced we might get kidnapped, but Ponch and John would likely save us.

Those were good times.

Solid article. Interesting too. This blog post from 2011 nails our generation perfectly.

I hoped it was satire. It's sick.

Anyone who thinks his is a good idea must hate humanity.

It's a nightmare.

So wrong. People walking around in a delusion not accepting their own humanity... it's a sick concept
