Welcome to the forum

This space is for people who grew up somewhere between the rotary phone and the smartphone—Gen X and those who identify with the Gen X experience.
If you’re comfortable, share a bit about yourself:
Birth year
Where you grew up
One thing that feels very “Gen X” about you
What brought you here / what you’d like from this community
No pressure to give your real name or too many details—just enough so we’re not total strangers.
I’ll go first in the replies so you have a format you can copy.

- 1966
- Grew up in the St Louis Metro area across the river in Illinois.
- It may sound cliche, but I pretty much learned how to get by own my own and it still exists almost 60 years later!
- I was tired of Reddit and wanted a place that was purely for us "GenXers" to get together and relate. So I created the forum.
