Inspired by Boynamedsue’s mastery of all things concise, I have—at long last—developed a sure-fire way of telling if you or someone you love is a member of Generation X. (This, of course, means that—if male—this person should also have full and bushy eyebrows. Joey Lawrence, are you listening? Oh, it’s probably too late for him anyway. Those things don’t always grow back ya know.)

Oops, sorry. Momentary lapse.

Okay, so you might be a Gen Xer if shortly after clicking the following link you utter anything along the lines of “OMG,” “sweet,” “no way,” etc. If you don’t, you’re either (a) old, (b) a raging biscuit but too young to know it yet, or (c) terminally uncool. That tiny voice in the back of your head will tell you which.
