Zack Davisson @zackdavisson.com · 10d Are you in the US? I am also born in 1972 and there has never been a day in my life when I was not called Gen X. (Well, at least once it was named. Which as I recall was around the 90s. Before that we had a bunch of names. The only reference for Generation Nothing is this album by Metal Church

I don't think it stuck. I think we were just then Gen X totally. Seems they used more than birthday maybe, seems I remember they also figured Graduating classes. Probably misremembering everything. Getting old & after COVID bout am foggy with memory at times.
Before named Gen X we were Latchkey Generation, MTV Generation, and (my favorite) Star Wars Generation. But the only thing that changed was the names. The dates starting from mid-60s to 80s never changed. I can't find a single resource talking about "Generation Nothing."
