Fine analysis, but this thread is probably gonna get locked.
I think it's best for generationology to be banned on this site, it is mostly an extension of decadeology, which already is banned, only difference is you're more likely to offend someone with generationology.

This is exactly what I suggested before you started posting on here more. Generations aren't set in stone and they usually lead to pointless arguments and flame wars. Not to mention inthe00s isn't even dedicated to generations.
