Lol its because everyone seriously forgets about us ALWAYS, so now we just prefer it.
Read almost any article, its about boomers, millennials, gen z and now gen alpha....we are always forgotten, and quite honestly we prefer it that way now lol.
I actually read an article last year about the different generations, and gen x was left out. The funniest part about that is the article was written by a Gen X and she put in at the end that even she forgets about her own generation.
Jarts were AWESOME. A curse on whomever led the charge to ban them....
Probably the damn boomers again...
