What generation are we?

[martinemonster]

In the 1950s, the babyboomers came: the ones who "built Norway".

In the 1980s, it was "japperne": the quick-fix, one-man-company-people.

Then, in the early 90s, it was all about the "dessert generation" - the ones who didn't build Norway, as Erlend Loe nicely put it. The ones who just expected to get everything handed to them.

Who are we? What name will they give/have they given us? I need a label here...

djiises! Jeg har jo sagt vi er ironisk distanse-generasjonen. Nei vent, "ironisk distanse"-generasjonen.

Vel, det er ikke supersnappy da...likte "kaffe latte"-generasjonen. Ironisk distanse, mye snakk, men lite action, mye "politisk korrekhet" blandet med kynisme, også om den forutnevnte politisk-korrektheten. Det passer, gjør det ikke?
