The Cuspers Generation?
I don’t know about the rest of my boomer buddies, but I’m getting awfully tired of a bunch of these new cusper generation running us down. It seems like all these lap top hugging do nothings have nothing better to do than blame the entire world situation on my generation. But I ask what have they done? All the great innovations of the past thirty years were brought about by the boomers. Then they try to move the markers to include those few creative people born in the 1950s to include them into their imagined “generation”. The cuspers seem to believe that these great social inventions have always been here. Get a clue morons.
As baby boomers lose their authority and appeal, generational power is shifting one notch down: to cuspers (born roughly 1954-1965), who arrived in style in 2008 with their first truly major figure, Barack Obama (born 1961).
George W. Bush, born in 1946 at the start of the postwar baby boom for which his generation is named, will leave office with the lowest approval ratings since Richard Nixon was president. As Thomas Friedman has written, Bush epitomizes what’s now seen as “The Greediest Generation.”

So who do these airheads think voted Obama in anyway? How do they think this country got to the place in history that a black man became a viable presidential candidate? The decline, moron, is because of political complacency, something the boomers have never been. And Obama, well do you think that if we hadn’t marched and demonstrated for civil rights in the 1960s he would be our president elect today?
So what have the so-called cuspers given us? Generation Y of course.
