Boomer parents are the worst

[71montess]

I am not sure if that is equally insulting, though. Somehow, rent paying is not as horrible as the crimes the entire boomer generation is accused of.

Get a job and move out of your mommies basement.

yes - better. Although, not as succinct as "boomer". We need to keep looking.

I'm so f****** mad that my parents didn't go with me and cheer me on when I punched a f******* hole in my nose and jammed a hunk of metal in it. Waaaaaaaah!!!
Jeeeeeeesus Christ stop the F******* ride I want to get off!!

 

[AllaSnackbah]

I need to make a tiktok and start trolling boomers on this level. The ukraine thread just doesn't hit like it used to.

There has to be a state where it’s still legal to abort that kid.

 

[alx]

Where I come from the thing on her nose (a bit more heavy duty of course) is used on pigs so they dont dig up the pen...

On the question at hand- she has -no-idea- what is in store for her once she decouples from her parents. She seems a clean, well- cared for kid and I am sure given her lack of ability to comprehend life - it is all because of her parents shielding her from the blood sport called life. All in due time, all in due time kiddo...

I feel that.

My father is a boomer (71 this year) and he is my absolute best friend. We speak every day either by text or phone. I will be lucky to live up to being half the man he was to me. I can’t imagine this things attitude.

One of the most important things in my life is at this point is my father being in my children’s life. Especially my son who needs his influence.

That’s awesome man.
I’m happy for you.

Stereotypes don't just invent themselves...

It's worth knowing though that mindset often transcends age etc. I have young guys at work that are clearly more like GenX than the millenials you could label them as. Upbringing > generational generic BS. If their parents sucked then they tend to fall into the generic crap.

Grew up in a first gen WI house. (lots of parallels as the culture is often blended)
I have a sibling that is a decade younger and they were the only one that had the social/public school indoctrination but they are not as bad as the one in the OP
I can only imagine if I brought that bs home

Gen Wisconsin?

 

[mibro]

I find that the stereotypes are almost always true (for a large percentage of the population that they stereotype).

Stereotypes say nothing about individuals.

 

[Dench]

The worst employee I have right now is a literal boomer. The best employee I also have is another literal boomer.

Makes the boomer math thing complicated. One guy says he got thrown out of Vietnam Era army basic because he beat up his drill sergeant and the other is a complete rock star.

It does if they laugh when they hear them.

I was playing with my dog and got the ring of his collar and tore up my nose some how

Not that i was planning on it but after that experience it solidified there will be no nose rings

young boomers.
born in 1964, kid in 2000, 36 years old, possibly.

anyways, there is a LOT to unpack here.
a) how does a boomer produce a kid like this?

My mother was born in 1954. Had a late surprise with my sister in 1996. 3 out of 4 conservative. Youngest was corrupted at UVM. I haven't met him yet, but I'm pretty sure what will become my BIL doesn't have a penis.

Get over it, people. You all suck. So does your entire generation.

What is UVM?

UVM = Leftist indoctrination camp where out of state parents send $65K tuition and board.

 

[Love Machine]

Socialist paradise cant even cover tuition?

 

[GeorgeMason]

This should be in off topic.

 

[Matt_SERE]

Does only the USofA, or can any Allie state, have Baby Boomers?

I almost just called my bil a "Boomer" and it got me to thinking. He's now a dual citizen with born in the UK.

You are like the general discussion hall monitor

Technically, you are not wrong.

 

[Goodandtight]

I'm a boomer who is much more politically conservative/ libertarian minded than my (adoptive) parents who were part of the greatest or silent generation depending on where the line is drawn.

Somebody needs to do it.

Unlike UMass Amherst?

Just like that but cheaper for in state.

And she will have a mental breakdown:
Be made a Section 12
Be given all kinds of psych meds.
Be enrolled into the system, welfare, MA Health, by the hospital social worker that feels bad for her
Be taken back by the enabling Mother, usually not the Father, and live happily ever after again in her parent's basement or second floor apartment until the parents die or their money runs out!
