LMAO....In the immortal words of John Bender,Judd Nelson in The Breakfast Club,"Sweets you couldn't ignore me if you tried"...in this case you could swap ignore for cancelled!! Another good quote that fits this" they hate us cause they AIN'T us".......
Babe, me and my millennial neighbor love giving each other crap between gens. He's a decent dude that can take a joke. He works hard and takes care of his family. We have beers n bbq every other weekend. GenX will give respect where respect is earned. 😎🤘 Stay cool girl.😘
I’m wondering if it’s even possible to “cancel” us. I mean, for the cancelling to work, doesn’t the subject need to care about being cancelled? How do you cancel people that have zero fux to give about being cancelled? Then again, if it gets all these whiners to leave us alone again…please, go for it!
Threatening someone that you're going to make sure they keep living the same way that they've always lived is really the epitome of bad threats. You're essentially threatening crocodiles with living in the water.
Hang in there, Amy. I was where you are for a year, and I was able to save and pull myself up. I hope you have some good people around you and they help with a few things. Sending you strength and patience and oceans of love ❤️
🫂💜 The fear is real for women of X ('72.) I hope you have people, and I wish for things to get better. Be safe, and stay strong - and I wish you didn't have to worry about either 🫂
Living in your Honda Civic beats living in abandoned houses at age 17 because your tent blew down and ripped and all you have left is the fly and you can't go home to your boomer parents because your mom is a lying alcoholic who ruined her body, mind and spirit working nightshift at a woman's prison so she could go on lots of vacations everywhere alone or with a girlfriend. I suggest reading "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and compare if you'd rather be in his shoes or not compared to where you are now. For me, I figured Ivan had it better but it was a tough call.
The irony here, if I'm understanding the situation, is that the generations after us are the ones cancelling us? Don't they realize Gen X is the entire reason why we can now have kids who are out, proud and living as themselves? Ours was the generation that first embraced diversity. We were the ones who were all about self-expression, living authentically and accepting that others could be different yet those differences weren't something to divide us. I don't get it. Or care, TBH.
Yeah, the difference is we said be yourselves & stuck to the idea of minding our own business. Now we have backward laws that are more strict & confining which are trying to overcorrect each other. One thing Gen X doesn’t like is ppl telling us what to do. I still believe in diversity, but I’m also stubborn as sh!t & have issues with authority figures. I will take issue with anyone trying to limit the power I have to make my own decisions. So the real problem is still boomers vs millennials/gen z.
Your very inspiring. You act tough on the outside to survive, but on the inside, your heart must be bruised, but you still have the attitude that you must to keep going. I'm almost a senior citizen, and l still can't cook, l can't imagine the mindset you had having to cook at 5 years old.😮.
Hey Sheri, love your work ❤. Think I just discovered our anthem...take a listen to the Gen X attitude in the lyric of Cooper Alan's song Feel like hell today. If he's not the reincarnation of a Gen X'er taken too soon, then I don't know sh*t. Enjoy, keep on keepin' on. Again, love your work❤
We still have each other because each other is all we've had. And I was, unfortunately, part of the group that didn't have many of my own generation. So, yeah. Cancel away. Not like I had anyone noticing I existed to begin with. Most never noticed when I was gone. (I had a total of one person seek me out when I went off the radar. One. Ya'all can go kick rocks.)
I feel like the Grinch when his heart swells 2 sizes too big.😂😂😂 well, it was great while it lasted, the love, the attention and affection, awwhh who are we kidding? we like Ferral Honey Badgers we don't give AF..😂😂😂😂 GEN-X RULES EVERYBODY ELSE DROOLS😂😂😅😅😅
Being canceled means they will leave us alone? Hallelujah! I'm off to be my untethered self that I have always been. I'll see you when the street lights come on.....maybe. 😂
The media already cancelled us..They never mention Gen X when they talk about the different Generations on the News... I didn't know I was in a Generational War... I'm still recovering from Reaganomics... Let me find my D.A.R.E shirt...
Ha ha…we were a bad influence !! Now people will search for us all the time. We are awesome. 😂😝 This is the first time I’ve heard of this. I’m dying laughing 🤣
We were born cancelled. Medical costs spiked in the mid 60s as soon as we were born. Parents were loathe to take us to doctors for anything short of dismemberment. Prison populations spiked in the mid 80s as soon as we graduated high school (the war on drugs, 52 years long and counting)
Does this mean I don't have to see anymore videos of them telling us how much they don't like us? Or videos of us reacting to their misinformation about who we suppossedly are, what we've supposedly done, or what we supposedly have? Does this mean we get to go back to being ignored and posting our inside jokes only we understand? Because that was way more fun and interesting. You know, how it was like 2-3 months ago? Is this paragraph in this volume of our story over? Can we remove it in edit? I think we're in consensus as to the inconsequentiality of being recognized as significant for all of a minute of an entire lifetime.
As a Gen X-er. I don't care about canceling. Also, cancellers don't seem to understand that canceling us won't make us magically disappear. If they want to ignore us, that is fine with me.
Yea it's too late to really give a shit !! If the end comes we will be the only ones that can completely take care of ourselves and everyone else is just useless !! 😂
Being canceled means that everybody ignores you well that's what we strive for...
Already have it irl. Online? Big deal.
Wait, Wait, Wait we are canceled? We f*king Win!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😎😎🥰🥰
Sing it!!! Score for us!
Exactly 💯 💯 😂❤❤
Cancelled should be our Gen-X tattoo.
nobody cancelled you
We were cancelled a LONG time ago, we put some dirt on it and moved on. :P
Ikr, our parents were the first to cancel us. 😂
Yep, just walk it off 😂
it's too late to Cancel Gen X, they've already cancelled the rest of the world, but waste your time trying if you want, they will not give a sh*t.
When the hell have we had support? Lmao!!!😂
Gud point! Gud answer! Gud answer! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Canceled? - Are they still having issues with the fact that WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS?????
OF THE WORLD...
All we ever had was one another - and 100% never needed anything or anyone else.
Came to the comments to say exactly this.
WAPENNNN!!! WORD UP!!!👊👊
Gen Xers we are the best generation ever! We will go down in history as the most self taught , adventurous, slow aging generation ever !
We did it, guys. We managed to get noticed just long enough for them to intentionally revoke their attention again. Woo!
Maybe being cancelled means my kids stop using me as an atm for awhile. Sign me up!!
LMAO....In the immortal words of John Bender,Judd Nelson in The Breakfast Club,"Sweets you couldn't ignore me if you tried"...in this case you could swap ignore for cancelled!! Another good quote that fits this" they hate us cause they AIN'T us".......
As long as I don't have to get off the couch they can do whatever...
Right? Like, can I respond to this from my tub? Does this require more gravitas on our part, or are house slippers and robes acceptable attire?
I change out of my pajamas to put on clean pajamas. I don’t see how this is interrupting my routine. 💁♀️
That's what I'm talking about!
The Boomers already cancelled us. Oh gosh... however will we survive cancel culture...again... horrors.
They tried..but the soft generation was no match for us 😂
Babe, me and my millennial neighbor love giving each other crap between gens. He's a decent dude that can take a joke. He works hard and takes care of his family. We have beers n bbq every other weekend. GenX will give respect where respect is earned. 😎🤘 Stay cool girl.😘

our battle cry of “I don’t give a fuck” gave us the moniker of “Gen X”…
Sherri I think you🫵are my spirit animal!💪🐃
In my house, all of us admit we were raised by wolves. Therefore, we are a pack of wolves working together to survive the Hyenyas of the world.
If being canceled means that everybody ignores you then we GenXers have been canceled our whole lives!
Gen X haters: shut up and give me my coffee ☕️
😂 Facts. All working at Starbucks 😂
I’m not here for popularity. Get off my lawn.
You absolutely win!
Facts. 🎉 It is what it is.
Through us to the wolves!
We'll come back with the pack!😎
THE THING IS…. WE DO HAVE THE POWER!!! Take it!!!it’s go time Gen X
Your wink at the end makes my day!! Born in 1965 and living in my Honda Civic. Resilience and resourceful. Got that from my childhood!!!
Hang in there, Amy. I was where you are for a year, and I was able to save and pull myself up. I hope you have some good people around you and they help with a few things. Sending you strength and patience and oceans of love ❤️
I hope it gets better. We can survive anything, but we shouldn't have to.
🫂💜
The fear is real for women of X ('72.)
I hope you have people, and I wish for things to get better. Be safe, and stay strong - and I wish you didn't have to worry about either 🫂

Dear zoomers, if we say or do anything that offends you...please let us know...we could use a good laugh.
Didn't know we were all that to be canceled. It's not like many care anyway. No skin off our backs.
Yes!!!! ❤fr CB NS 🇨🇦 🍁
You can't cancel us. We never subscribed. ROFLMAO!!!
Nice! 😁
❤ always there’s not a cancel button for us
we got an off switch but that would get ya life in prison so your only option is to leave a hostess treat at the edge of the woods and run
We're being cancelled? In the immortal words of GenX "Yeah, whatever. Who the 'ell cares?"
I wanted to be eft out of their crap to begin with. Being cancelled is a win for me.
The irony here, if I'm understanding the situation, is that the generations after us are the ones cancelling us?

I don't get it.
Or care, TBH.
Yup, we raised those little monsters only to get canceled by the little heathens..
Yeah, the difference is we said be yourselves & stuck to the idea of minding our own business. Now we have backward laws that are more strict & confining which are trying to overcorrect each other.

You mean you'll take away our Sally Field award? 😢 Oh wait, did the mailman ever drop that Oscar off for us? You like us you really like us .
I mean first of all we set the damn precedent!!! Hell yeah!!
Weren't we born cancelled? What disturbs me, is the thought, that people are now interested in us. What's up?
"We're going to cancel gen x."
Gen X : You promise ?
Your very inspiring.
You act tough on the outside to survive, but on the inside, your heart must be bruised, but you still have the attitude that you must to keep going.
I'm almost a senior citizen, and l still can't cook, l can't imagine the mindset you had having to cook at 5 years old.😮.
Fuck yeah! Long live Gen X!!
Preach it Sherri!!!
Truth ❤

I feel like the Grinch when his heart swells 2 sizes too big.😂😂😂 well, it was great while it lasted, the love, the attention and affection,

GEN-X RULES EVERYBODY ELSE DROOLS😂😂😅😅😅

OH HELL YEAH!!
Yay🎉
Wait we might have fans On the ceiling or maybe even in the widow 😂 GenX Forever 🥰
You've got that right, hon. We have each other and that is all we'll ever need.
I remember your parents were responsible parents if your kids were home when the street lights came on. And you had Band Aids.
Lol. The commercials at 10pm to remind parents, "Do you know where your kids are?" 😅💖
Cancel us! Now that's funny!
Being canceled means they will leave us alone? Hallelujah! I'm off to be my untethered self that I have always been. I'll see you when the street lights come on.....maybe. 😂
I love you, Gen X, theeeee BESTEST ever!!!!!!! ♥️♥️
💯💪🏿
AMEN sister.....AMEN 😂😂😂
Oh no! A bunch of people with whom I've never interacted are going to continue making sure we never interact.
Facts100%❤
We are our own rock stars. Gen X is self sufficient to the point we don't need OR want anything from anybody.
That explains why you're garbage parents
Indeed 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
FACTS!!! Do we e look like GAF? The answer is NO we don't GAF!!!!
I learned long ago that "Gen-X" is the greatest generation. In fact, I even married an early Gen-X guy! 😊
Speaking truth.
The media already cancelled us..They never mention Gen X when they talk about the different Generations on the News... I didn't know I was in a Generational War... I'm still recovering from Reaganomics... Let me find my D.A.R.E shirt...
I found it! It was in the box with my Hands Across America tshirt and We Are The World tape.
Sounds like a dream come true 😜😜😜
Ha ha…we were a bad influence !! Now people will search for us all the time. We are awesome. 😂😝 This is the first time I’ve heard of this. I’m dying laughing 🤣
I say bring it on
Holy fuck what's next 😂
Go on with your stupid selves
Well we're a pack of wolves that can't be separated
Love y'all 💞
😂😂😂😂 her words don't mean dirt. That's putting it very nicely
When were we un-cancelled? Were we actually relevant for a minute?!? Where was I? How'd I miss that?!?
Legends 🤘#xers
We were born cancelled. Medical costs spiked in the mid 60s as soon as we were born. Parents were loathe to take us to doctors for anything short of dismemberment. Prison populations spiked in the mid 80s as soon as we graduated high school (the war on drugs, 52 years long and counting)
Bad Ass! Thank you!
Ain't that the buck naked truth. 100
Noone can cancel us... We have already don't that!
GenX is so good at self-isolating that I've lived in Colorado for 10 years and still haven't met another GenX'er!!
Go GenX !!!!!
So true
Does this mean I don't have to see anymore videos of them telling us how much they don't like us? Or videos of us reacting to their misinformation about who we suppossedly are, what we've supposedly done, or what we supposedly have? Does this mean we get to go back to being ignored and posting our inside jokes only we understand? Because that was way more fun and interesting. You know, how it was like 2-3 months ago? Is this paragraph in this volume of our story over? Can we remove it in edit? I think we're in consensus as to the inconsequentiality of being recognized as significant for all of a minute of an entire lifetime.
Wink!
..boom!
We could be friends..we do have each other
💯
Canceled? Geeze. You woke me up to tell me that??! I don’t care if you say I’m a mallard duck so long as you leave me in peace. ☮️
I don’t give a crap what they feel I don’t need attention or praise I’m a genx I don’t care period.
We got cancelled?
Awesome...
Baffling.
Damn straight sister 😂
💯❤❤❤
I prefer to be left alone and I don't give a fuck what anobody thinks about me. And people who give a shit about being cancelled can gfy.
Love it!!😅
Facts
You can't "Cancel" Gen X! We made YOUR ass and we can damn sure break it! 😎👌🏻
🥰🥰🥰🥰
Ehh, ok. Bye! Don’t come back! Forget to write!……………..Finally, Geez! 🎉🎊🎈
As a Gen X-er. I don't care about canceling. Also, cancellers don't seem to understand that canceling us won't make us magically disappear. If they want to ignore us, that is fine with me.
💜💚💜💚
Gen x, middle child, not sure my parents even know i exist...
REMEMBER- PLEASE,THANKYOU,I'M SORRY RESPECT?!
Yea it's too late to really give a shit !! If the end comes we will be the only ones that can completely take care of ourselves and everyone else is just useless !! 😂
