Born '67 in that strange gap between Boomer and GenX. Get told "OK Boomer" nonetheless.
With regards to SAT, MENSA hasn't accepted a score for twenty-plus years as a qualification for membership.
SAT: Yes (if you took the SAT before or on 1/31/1994). If taken prior to '74, the requirement is 1300. If taken between then and '94, the requirement is 1250. However, scores after 1/31/1994 are not accepted for membership. After 1994, SAT was considered an achievement test that one could study for.
Interestingly, GRE is still accepted even today with a high enough score.

Gen X guys are lucky; they dumbed down the SAT for them.
Mine was blue. First thing I did was replace that seat with plastic. Then the handlebars. Came with front brakes too, I dunno about this picture. I guess that's a 78 where mine was an 80 or 81.
I’m still hella bitter about that!

Ha your dad sounds like a character TPB. I think over my childhood I must have had 4 or 5 bikes stolen by Beans.

If she becomes secretary of anything outside of the prison law library there is no justice!
Nearly all of the development of the internet was done by generation X.
Shoulders of giants, and all that.
I was born 1980. What I can remember is that no parents were watching us past age 7. By age 8, we were all over town on our own. The fire company rang a siren in town for lunch and one for dinner. Somewhere along the line, the idea of not looking after your kid even in your backyard is frowned upon. I've purposely raised my kids with minimal screen time and kick them out of the house with little supervision. My 8 year old son is old school to the core. We got him a vinyl record player and gave him all these records from the 60s from our parents collections. He loves it. HisI friends all got ipads. We gave him our NES and SNES. I got him a power drill, bits, and a set of screwdrivers/wrenches. He sits around in the basement building crap all day.
I remember us GenXers being called the Latch Key Kids. Because we were left alone at home while growing up as the two-income family hit our generation first.
Our government is nothing but a criminal syndicate.

I've always had a problem with this anime.
If an alien society was launching weekly raids on earth, where are our armed forces?
First, this was a Sandy Frank adaptation. They drastically changed the storyline from the original Gatachaman source material and of course, it's a kid's show.
Furthermore, look at how silly ANY superhero fantasy film is from an adult
