I'm a millennial, please don't think any less of me ;)

:)

;)

:p

I'm just nosy ;)

The years represented in your image aren't the ones I usually use. I was born in 1985, and depending on what version you use that can fall into gen X, which I will always claim over millennial. Not that I dont like or appreciate millennials, I just act, associate with, and more closely connect with older generations. Ive always been told I act much older than I am. Heck I'd have been perfectly happy growing up in the 40s and 50s, that world seemed much more interesting to me honestly. And to date, those that grew up during those times have seen far more technological advances than any other generation in history. Good stuff.

There have been people both here on IMGFlip and on the other places on the internet of were legitimately surprised when I told them I'm a teenager. Most of them thought I was in my 30's.

I can see that, I mean, your outlooks and your maturity level are way above most teenagers... anywhere to be honest. Or, from what Ive seen at least.

Yes, you and I share that character trait although i think you are far more mature than even i was at your age. You are very knowledgeable about several things that most teenagers could care less about, and you carry yourself well. Glad to have you as a friend, we can act like old guys together, lol.

I see you more as Gen X to be honest. Maybe because my step-dad is gen X and I assossaite you 2 very closely together? I dont really like being a Gen Z to be honest... my dad call me a 'post-millennial' a lot...

There are about as many definitions of the generation years out there as there are tic tacs in the check out line at Walmart, which tells me no one can agree on what the years are. Therefore, I associate with the generation I have the most in common with since my birth year is bordering two different ones.

I'll just leave this face of slight disdain for your comment here, lol

You know what you're doin pony boy, dont play coy with me :)

Hey that sorta rhymed, lol

No offense meant, I didnt even realize people were calling you that! I just know your fondness of the MLP stuff and made a play on it.

I'm a south carolinian because there is a very definite state line that says I was born there. I cant find a concrete definition of what generation I was born in. If the state lines were as foggy as the generational timeframes I'd actually be more likely to call myself a north carolinian, I like mountains and NC BBQ way better than SC BBQ. That's enough cred to form anyone's identity around here, lol.

It's mostly in the sauce, but the meat as well. SC style is focused on just certain parts of the pork shoulder, mainly the boston butt, and uses a mustard based sauce that isnt bad but not my favorite. Go to maurice's in columbia for the benchmark SC mustard sauce, it's the most popular (albeit a little controversial). The NC style utilizes the whole shoulder or even goes whole hog, and the sauce usually has more vinegar in it. Further, NC is split up into east and west, with west focusing more on just the shoulder and has a sweet ketchup based sauce that often has brown sugar or molasses in it, and east is whole hog with a thin vinegary peppery spicy sauce.

My personal favorite sort of combines several aspects of all of it, I smoke boston butts or shoulder roasts mostly, and my favorite is the eastern NC pepper vinegar sauce. The tang of the vinegar goes really well with the pork, but it doesnt mask the flavor of the meat and smoke. Good BBQ shouldn't need any sauce at all, and the sauce is just there to accentuate it.

Western NC Bbq Is Best And No Matter If Your From North Or South Carolina We're Carolinians The Two Best States

I prefer the western NC meat prep and cook style better, but the eastern sauce is my favorite. It's the spicy nature that does it for me. Western sauce is good too though, cant complain! I'm a BBQ snob, but I'm not one of the ones that picks a hill to die on so to speak, like some in NC do, lol. Agreed on the Carolinas being the best, you get mountains, ocean, good weather, culture...we've got it all! Cheers.

You'd probably like the western NC style then, it's close to your every day bbq sauce that most people think about. I like beef too, but pork is my favorite.

Goes back to when butchers would pack meat into special barrels called "butts" to ship the meat, usually less prized cuts to be sent off to soldiers. That particular cut became popular and originated from Boston butchers, hence the boston butt roast.

The more you know.

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure that the dates represented are completely accurate. But I'm a typically lazy millennial and just posted one of the first infographics I could find ;)
