I have been giving this some serious thought today (stuck at home with the flu, so that probably explains my brain today) but I feel like Duck Tails, Rescue Rangers, and Tailspin are, for me, the quintessential xennial memory. Hard to beat coming home from school and firing up the Disney Afternoon while eating ice cream on the brown carpet in the living room.

Hi everyone, up until a couple of weeks ago, I didn't even know xennial was a thing! But then I found this T-shirt and now I feel like I definitely identify. I was born in 1978 and I've often felt like I'm in the middle between gen-x and older millennials.

Just saying, it’s time for a Smoky and the Bandit reboot

They always argued.

And their kids, Bebop and Rocksteady, woof!

Then did a sexy Rexy hip wiggle to punctuate it.

I guess Rex Manning day came a few days early this year

Do you know this?

Also - it’s just hilarious.

At the local bar tonight and the millennials are love themselves some Creed. I’m old enough to remember being EXHAUSTED by Creed. Is this possibly the dividing line between Xennials and Millennials? Fellow Xennials, am I alone?

Lots of ska!

I dehydrate my own now because neon corn syrup isn't a good fruit roll up. I really used the sunkist fruit rolls.

I am at my intellectual and emotional peak. Let the 20 somethings have their perky boobs, and fast metabolism. Being in your 40s is the best, and we do ourselves a disservice by constantly claiming the greater emotional intelligence and self awareness is somehow less than the physical benefits of our 20s. I am more patient, more insightful, calmer, more rational, more confident, focused, and capable then I have ever been.

I get that aging can be hard. I am not meaning to dismiss or belittle that. It's just so often here the narrative is only a lament, which just reinforces the idea that aging = bad. Aging is also a beautiful thing and I don't want you all to forget how good it is too.

Just watched again tonight. There's just so much good in this movie!

I was born at the tail end of 76. For all intents and purposes I'm a Xennial. I really don't associate myself at all with Gen-X. Not much in common. I went to high school with internet, and my first gaming system was an NES. To me, I'm a Xennial, even though I TECHICALLY am 1 month outside of the "range". What do you think? Ok to call myself Xennial or am I just Gen-X and need to shut up lol?

Return to Oz (1985)

Nothing beat getting to stay home sick and watching daytime TV talk shows.

God, I forgot how good it feels to sing this one.
