    15 year generations don’t really make sense though, the whole concept of a generation is that they’re the previous generation’s kids.

      I don’t disagree, but unfortunately nobody granted me authority on the general consensus on this one. I will say though that lineagial generations feel like only one possible definition, and cultural generations defined by common cultural experience (as is the case we’re discussing) feel like they have some validity for me as well.

      That is not at all the case in this context.
