I was in Middle School when MTV launched. After verifying the date I was headed into 7th grade. I don't remember how they advertised the channel but I do remember it going live in our town.
I'm definitely Gen X. Born in '72, the greatest NFL year ever, haha. When MTV launched I was 9 and should have been in the 4th grade. However, my now dead absent crazy mother let me run the streets of South Florida (Hollywood, Ft. Lauderdale, Pompano, Deerfield, Boca, Delray, and Boynton) from 9-11 years old, but mostly Boca. Running the streets smoking Marlboro reds and drinking, hahaha. Therefore I was 2 years behind when I came back to MS to live with my dad in '83.

She used to drop me off every Saturday at the old Boca Mall(Mizner Park now) with $3 to entertain myself. But I had 3-4 friends like me that would all roam the mall and steal shit from the Jefferson Ward and sneak into the movies and watch them all while smoking a pack. Back then you could smoke a whole pack at the movies at 10 years old and no one said shit. I lived behind the the old Boca mall. From Google maps it looks like all those old 50's ranch houses have been torn down to build McMansions. Anyhow, I am gen X. I am a cynical asshole. And even though it's has probably negatively affected me. I wouldn't change anything about my childhood for the world, I had a shitload of fun...

yep ... I was in my mid to late 20's as the internet got popular so it wasn't so foreign as I tried it. I'd hate to have been much older as I'm not so sure how much I would have understood.  I remember at the time people saying my generation had the advantage over the older people as were weren't afraid to make mistakes and thus learned much faster.

Memes are meaningless crap. We all saw Shakira's tongue. I spoke about it with real people I was with.

I skipped the entire halftime show. Neither J-Lo or Shakira are on my musical watch list.

She does have a pretty tongue though...

While I agree, it wasn't just a pretty tongue -

I'm not even a boomer

Not making an apology for the "ok boomer" crowd but this is exactly why you may be one.  Smiley

They are fully aware you aren't a "baby boomer."  "Ok boomer" and baby boomers = completely different things.  Any generation can fall into the "ok boomer" category.

(and, yes, it's super annoying regardless)

I don't think that I've ever had anyone say "OK boomer" to me. It seems that the only people that use the phrase are people born after Gen X that think their opinion is the ONLY valid opinion. The definition,  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OK_Boomer seems to confirm that "Ok Boomer" is in reference to baby boomers.

I put it in the same category as when you're stating your opinion and make a good point and someone says, "Whatever". To me, if all you can come up with is a dismissive canned reply, that means you automatically lose the argument.

If it's not just generational then what else is it? Is it anyone who disagrees with their warped, entitled, and one sided view of the world?

It started with hate towards baby boomers, because the new generation really hates baby boomers, they blame them for everything.  Now it's just a way of calling someone old.

"Man my neck really hurts"
"Okay (old man) boomer"

"Back in my day we talked face to face, we didn't text"
"Okay boomer"

"I have Facebook"
"Okay boomer"
