boomers

loool i was reading it like "boomers" the generation thing... Like, "damn, just eat it and try it...." :D I thought, boomers would not google that shit, must be the zoomers!

pov - your unc asks what you do on easter — uncle: "so you do marketing?" me: "yes I generate leads for b2b companies" what I actually do: manage 350+ fake female linkedin accounts spamming dms to boomers pass the gravy please

Has anyone else noticed anti-Asian racism sometimes feels more overt from millennials than from Gen Z or older generations? — This is just something I noticed as a Gen Z American. I thought it was simply because they are older but to me it seems like older generation like Gen X or boomers seems to actually be less overtly ra…

Dad messaged me on my birthday — I just wanted to get some thoughts on these messages as my family are not very objective on the matter and I feel weird about them. Haven't spoken to my dad in a number of years now I honestly fo…

Who else puts up with technologically-illiterate narc parents? — My ndad is one of those boomers who barely knows how to use basic tech like printers, computers, and certain smartphone features. And teaching him is a pain! Whenever I show him how to fix something,…

Do you think most parents believe their children owe them for being born or is that belief dying with the younger generations? — I have shitty parents who abused me and took most of my earnings (which is why I’ll become homeless soon) since I left and they said I have to come back because “they are my parents and I owe it to th…

Wow. I’m a boomer, female, I’ve never had anything handed to me ever, worked 2-3 jobs from 1979-2016, earned everything I have bc I worked my butt off, & at least once a eeek I hear people bitching a…

Not all boomers are selfish assholes

I'm a boomer and wouldn't dream of treating my kids like that. Please don't tar an entire generation like that. We are talking about NARCS here, not boomers.

Just because the boomers in your family are a certain way doesn't mean all boomers are. Your comment is ageist and ridiculous.

Comment removed - generalizing about boomers

Boomers. Just eat a gram and get a feel for it. If you don't like it then have some xanax ready and take .25mgs-.5mgs

That tracks. And it matches with r/BoomersBeingFools

I also find that anybody after generation. X is more into casual like generation X's kids. I've found their way to more and after I found there way more to casual than to having relationship. I don't …

Oh please! 'Boomers don’t get the bias of chat' ............. some of us do! :-)

I mean Boomers created the internet in the first place. But now the word is shorthand for any entitled, willfully ignorant, generally unpleasant older person

That’s happening to me right now. My mom started homeschooling me in 5th grade, my dad is never (works to support a family of 7 and 3 dogs) my mom works online all day (she has like 50 different jobs,…

Yeh I think Gen X parents are slightly better than Boomers. Millennials are also getting better than Gen X. I notice improvements in each generation of parenting, but you’re not going to change your …

Demographics are the first step. East Asian passing people have some of the highest rates of out-marriage. Things like political, media, and corporate leadership is more possible if there is at leas…

Boomers have no emotional intelligence.

Very happy for you that you smashed that frame. It must have felt good. (by the way, most of us boomers CAN operate digital items!)

By growing up too soon in truth. I see it in my own generational cycle, why it's easy to forgive my Mother since I know my Grandmother dumped all her mental health problems on her as a child. So proje…

So many reasons. Where to start.  First, a lot of these conditions weren't well understood or weren't in the mainstream awareness until extremely recently (last 10-15 years). By which point my paren…

No here we call them boomers. Been calling 🍄s boomers for 25 years.

UPDATE: Thanks very much for a detailed (and civil) discussion. I knew my point of view wasn't 100% accurate. I really appreciate posters chiming in to correct me and improve my understanding. ......…

You should feel hopeful, if you're in your early 20s and already connecting all this and realizing the issues than you're miles ahead of me. I spent my entire 20s uprooting myself and pushing people a…

I was born there moved to Canada at 7 and then to nyu for college and stayed. Now both American and Canadian. My husband is 3rd gen Japanese Korean American. It really depends on your family and…

Lowkey it feels like fairly successful AM moving back to China is like the second boomer wave for better or worse. You get to live really nice, save a lot of money, similar to how boomers uses to live…

Pretty sure Asian children are “coddled” in some way in this culture and there’s nothing wrong with that.. it’s called being loved. My mom treated me to a cruise while I took care of all the planning …

my "brother" in Fidel: do you have an idea what I'm doing in this post? https://preview.redd.it/1ixfsy6499sg1.png?width=2000&format=png&auto=webp&s=5c465ca5bcede01833be434afc0a747afea1f2c9 \*Ang L…

My step mom did with her mary kay business. She never got the red coat let alone the pink Cadillac. But she put my father in a position so he can't retire. She's never had a job other than Mary Kay …

This post and thread is surprising. I'm Generation Jones, we're the bridge between boomers and Gen X. My grandparents, parents (the Greatest Generation), Boomers, Generation Jones, Generation X, cove…

I hate the idea of door removal and think it is a (minor) form of child abuse and horrified me when I learned people actually did this. A coworker was raised by boomers and does this to her kid all …

I think it's becoming very clear that boomers have no idea how anything works for the past several decades. Probably since 2000. They literally don't know..it's still shocking to me they also don't s…

Yesterday I watched a show about interviewing people in a nursing home- the elders were so nice and respectful and interesting, they said this is our experience but we can’t give advice. Our parents (…

I’m actually wondering if our generation is going to be more short-lived than boomers and silent gen folks. Gen X and millennials are getting a lot of cancers not usually found in younger people.

I’m 38, and I was raised by boomers. I lost my door for all types of things that were not actually problems. I havent spoken to my mother since 2017. I hope your coworker knows the future she’s creati…

That is so fucking weird. Like what is with narcs (and perhaps boomers) and their obsession with pubes? No wonder why they loved growing it wild and free.

Im sorry that happened to you, OP. You were there with completely innocent and normal intentions and their unhinged behavior was super unfair to you. IDK if this helps, but my dad was also a rageaholi…

I understand. I see you. I feel you. You're valid in your feelings. Validate/acknowledge these feelings. They're trying to tell you something. You are safe. You are protected. You are taken care of. Y…

Yes, it's ridiculous. I hate what young people are going through right now. I am a Xennial and we had it much worse than the Boomers, but the young people today have it soooooooooo much worse than e…

Where is this happening to you? I’d love to know where these Asian-friendly boomers are, because this is completely opposite from what I’ve experienced in the Northeast and South.

Considering who is actually systematically infringing on our rights including trying to take away our citizenship, I’d say Gen X and boomers are more racist.

As Gen Z, you probably have limited interaction with Gen X or Boomers. In my experience, Gen X is the most racist toward Asians. They came of age in the 1980s and 90s, when Asians were very marginaliz…

I disagree, I would like to say a lot of boomers are outright racists and are not ashamed to saying the most racists craps. They grew up 90% yt America, that tells you a lot on why they don’t give a c…

if you look at how people vote, boomers and millenials are less racist than gen x and gen z. gen z men swung to trump, specifically black and latino young men [https://www.hks.harvard.edu/faculty-r…
