This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This is kinda blowing my mind right now.

I know generation bounds can be inconsistent, but I’m using this as the guideline:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation#List_of_social_generations

That puts Clinton, W, Obama, and Trump all as Baby Boomers and Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, and HW all as Greatest Generation.

Your fact that those three were all born the same year is what I'm finding interesting.
