According to Wikipedia:
Generation Jones is a term coined by Jonathan Pontell to describe the generation of people born between 1954 and 1965.
Jonathan Pontell defined Generation Jones as a distinct concept. Its members are still usually identified with either Baby Boomers or Generation X‘ers.
The name "Generation Jones" has several connotations, including a large anonymous generation, a "keeping up with the Joneses" competitiveness and the slang word “jones” or "jonesing", meaning a yearning or craving. It is said that Jonesers were given huge expectations as children in the 1960s, and then confronted with a different reality as they came of age in the 1970s and 1980s, leaving them with a certain unrequited, jonesing quality.
WOW! who knew? Thanks for clearing this up I didn’t know either , and thanks Catfan for asking the question.
"As you open the door to new relationships and remove the chain from your own fears, God will overwhelm you with new splendor."
Brand new term to me, but it makes sociological sense. My older brother is a Generation Jones member, and I can see him in much of these facets.
