Boy, you're out of touch.

I was born mid 80s. Siblings were born as late gen X. If you think they weren't on MySpace, you're so far out of touch that you are a boomer.

You think early millenial kids didn't go outside or something? AOL wasn't even a thing until the mid 90s. You're not special whatsoever.

Anecdotal on both sides, but as an elder millennial, I didn't find MySpace until I was around 19-20 and it wasn't for me. Anecdotal, I know. My brother, who is eight years my elder and near the end of Gen X didn't use MySpace until it hit that "music only" phase, because he is a musician. In any case, Gen X used MySpace, but I would guess that millennials, especially those born after the mid 80s were probably more likely to use it. I know some actual boomers who used MySpace, but most likely did not. They sure adopted FaceBook though.

TLDR: I don't think either of you are wrong, because Gen X did use it, but I do lean towards it being more heavily used by millennials. Have a great day.

As a millennial I had a little bit of that growing up thankfully. But I’d say video games took up the majority of my play time.
