My dearest gentlemen, do not concern yourself if you are not like everyone else. Our universe is just a giant ball of relative truths, which is another way of saying a giant ball of definite chaos. Don't waste your energy trying to achieve or long for something you cannot have. Look into the future. Plan. Execute. Survive. Flourish. This is why we are here. To make our way in the world. Then again, the above is all just relative, so you can disregard it.

And this decade suits me just fine. Anything before the 50's is too old fashioned, 60's smelled like shit, 70's had tons of high people that had no idea what the hell they were doing, 80's had chest and pubic hair, 90's had too much damn angst. 00's are the perfect decade for us to simply kick back and watch the world spin.

WHAT.

Well im not a wanksta, so yes I fell out of place, much so...maybe 16th century china I would have faired better, or now 200 years in the future.

I don't fit in with the majority, but I do know enough people from my generation, who are all right, to let it slide.

I wouldn't have wanted to live in any other era. 90s/2000s suited me fine, because any earlier and people like me were given electroshock therapy to "cure" them of something that couldn't be fixed that easy...

I'm only as out of place with my generation as my internet connection and university enrollment can take me.

Yes, very much so. I feel I am a compilation of 80's metal enthusiast and 13th century medieval knight.

Otherwise I was born in the wrong species. I should have been a Time Lord
That icon is from the Chameleon Circuit video, isn't it? As awkward a your post is, I can't argue with Chameleon Circuit.
Define awkward? And yes it is from Chameleon Circuit
I don't know... it just reads a little awkwardly is all.

Hmmm, on a social level, yes. I can find it difficult to relate to my peers but it's more due to a broader exposure to media on my part than seems to be the norm, rather than only having an appreciation for fairly mainstream entertainment. I really oughta try and find a group of friends I can discuss Scorsese, Tezuka and Silent Hill with. Having relatively alternative/retro tastes seems to have become a major part of my personality, and while I may not become as disillusioned with contemporary works in a different time, I'm sure I would have contrived to make myself not quite fit in by some means. I know better than to romanticise past generations so I don't see any of them as fundamentally better, and for all its problems, I wouldn't want to be without the technological and cultural state the world is currently in (for westerners, at least).

I'd love to have been of a gig-going age in the mid 80s to 90s for the Britpop (not just Oasis, I'm talking Smiths, Stone Roses, Mansun etc. here) and shoegazing scene I'm really into, and I'd get to see musicians like Jeff Buckley and bands like the early Smashing Pumpkins. But I really don't think its worth it, seeing all these kind of bands live would have been great experiences, but this generation has a lot going for it. And living through Spice Girls domination was bad enough the first time, I'd rather not do it again.

Basically, I'm content to be able to enjoy the creative output of previous generations while complaining about the current state of media.

(I really shouldn't base my temporal preferences by the amount of entertainment available)

I definitely feel apart from my generation, but it's more on a moral level than an artistic one. I love the new directions art is going, especially in the realm of interactive storytelling (translate: video games). But I definitely don't share in the post-modern worldview that has taken over our culture, I am strongly opposed to abortion, and I think of sex as much more than just some random fun activity. I'm very different from most of my generation, and I'm glad for that.

I totally wish I was a part of Generation X for numerous reasons.

Except without the bitter isolation and whininess,
