Ah, Gen X humor. It’s its own particular brand. Drawing on life growing up in the ’70s, ’80s or ’90s, Gen X memes capture the big hair, bikes, mixtapes, and questionable parenting of it all. These latchkey kids drank from garden hoses, didn’t wear helmets, and rode in the back of pickup trucks.
And somehow, despite all that, they made it to adulthood to share in these hilarious memes. If you’re one of them (and even if you’re not), stick around for a roundup of some of our favorite memes from Gen X Humor over on Instagram. Get ready to have a few core memories unlocked because together, they’re basically a highlight reel of your childhood: chaotic, unsupervised, and somehow better for it.
