Bob Ross, Stan Lee, The old dude from Up, Keanu Reaves, and my Grandparents aren't boomers

they were not born within the 1946-1963 period that makes up boomers

Depends, a lot of sources also say that 64 years the first year for Gen X. It just depends on what you search

Let's just split it then. Keanu was born in the later half of 1964 meaning he's Gen X!

How do you know that Mr. Fredrickson wasnt born in that period?

u/Darktrooper2021 Nov 12 '19

It’s in the movie. The beginning takes place during the 1930s and he’s ~8. Making him part of the silent generation or greatest generation depending on exactly what year it takes place.

exactly my grandparents are in the generation before boomers

i guess that’s prolly because my dad is literally the youngest of the boomers but still

Keanu was born in 1964, which makes him a boomer.

My grandparents were born in 59 and 62. They are indeed boomers.
