We introduce a notion of sensitivity, with respect to a continuous bounded observable, which provides a sufficient condition for a continuous map, acting on a Baire metric space, to exhibit a Baire generic subset of points with historic behavior. The applications of this criterion recover, and extend, several known theorems on the genericity of the irregular set, besides yielding a number of new results, including information on the irregular set of geodesic flows, in both negative and non-positive curvature, and semigroup actions.
