Boomer this Boomer that!
 
It may of been cute and even funny, could well be still.

To hear someone use the term "Boomer" to describe (derogatorily) those who happen to be in this age group.


Jealously or envious of my age group it seems. Ours being a driving force for so long. Now they are freaking at the forking out, paying for us as we age. Healthcare costs Social Security and seeing the world we have left them. Knowing their future is uncertain and troubled.

HA! Like mine was not!

I can see how someone could be pissed. Yes I do see it.

It is just like today had a sprinkler go bad when watering. Being a Boomer knew how to fix it and had the spare parts saved from another head. When a younger person would of bought a new one. The younger generation! I know this has been said a thounsand years ago or more....

See it almost weekly someone younger by many years almost angry at us in are later years. Thinking I still can't count or remember what was quoted!

It is my opinion that as a whole Baby Boomers (and I am one) have done a pretty terrible job of aging gracefully. I think a lot of the criticism is justified.

In my opinion all people are equally self centered, short sighted and blameworthy. The scapegoating of boomers is yet another divisive distraction, propaganda designed to keep people focused on bs AND NOT ON THE ACTUAL CULPRITS.

And who is the actual culprit when people post over and over again that there is no good music these days?

Punks who want some mythical life that doesn't include hard fucking work can kiss my gray haired wrinkled and broke down ass. :)
