I've wondered this too. I think most people associate millenials with the younger part of that generation (born from like '90-96) than the older ones (early to mid 80's). Basically all of the kids were still in school in the late 2000's and early 2010's.
I've never understood the whole obsession with labeling generations anyways. They ought to be broken up in much smaller amounts of years.Like, I have way more in common with millenials that were born in the early to mid 80's than I do the people in my generation (Gen X) who were born in the late 60's.
People who grew up and actually experienced the 70's, and when they were kids loved Kiss or watched Mash, I can't relate to that a ton.
True story, a few years back me and some guys were talking about old TV shows and one guy mentioned he just recently started watching Manix again on some classics channel. I asked "What in the hell is Manix?" and he busted my balls for it and called me a millenial. I think he asked me if I watched Power Rangers or something. (Note: I did not watch Power Rangers.)
