Everyone saying this is too late. We are Xennials not Millenials.

The graduating class of 2000 were the original millennials before it was used as a general term for an entire generation.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials

They coined the term in 1987, around the time children born in 1982 were entering kindergarten, and the media were first identifying their prospective link to the impending new millennium as the high school graduating class of 2000.[29]

The Oregon Trail generation!

Missed out on that one by a couple years unfortunately, though I feel more of a connection to those who had a pre-digital childhood like myself than I do to the iPad babies of today.

Yeah, that sweet spot in timeline between analog and digital.
