My favorite thing is the boomer anger towards 6-7
"Back in my day, our funni numbers mean something, and we wore onions on our belts, as was the fashion of the time"
Witnessing the boomerfication of millennials in real time is a trip.
Nah, still counts. A Boomer is just anybody older than you whom you disagree with.
Even if I try not to be an angry, all-dismissing boomer, I'll fall into the category of try-hard boomer.
Oh well. I'll let the kids have their fun and I'll have mine.
If you are new to being a boomer, just remember that those youngsters will be standing in the same place you are now. It's inevitable.
Remember: This is about the long game.
