THE ‘Y’ CHROMOSOME

People born before 1946 are called –The Greatest Generation.

People born between 1946 and 1964 are called -The Baby Boomers.

People born between 1965 and 1979 are called -Generation X.

And people born between 1980 and 2010 are called –Generation Y.

Why do we call the last group -Generation Y?

Y should I get a job?
Y should I leave home and find my own place?
Y should I get a car when I can borrow yours?
Y should I clean my room?
Y should I wash and iron my own clothes?
Y should I buy any food?
Y should I do anything when I can get it all for FREE?

But perhaps a cartoonist explained it more eloquently…see below:
