Capitalism is based on the ridiculous notion that you can enjoy limitless growth in a closed, finite system.

In biology, such behavior of cells is called "cancer".

That's when you see it's not just a witty retort, it's a battle cry. It's the pithy recognition that the boomers have a durable resistance to their ways and they will not discuss any change. The younger people know that they won't convince them so they have to make these changes now for themselves without the boomers. We will be hearing a lot more of this.

^Disincluding, of course, boomers who agrees with millenialXers and favors change? In which case, "woot!"?

Boomers are the generation who took everything and left nothing. Truly the "me" generation.

I'm a big fan of "OK Boomer"

...there's a few on this forum to whom it would apply quite nicely

When America was "great"

No surprise that you would like that. Adopting a stupid, meaningless phrase to avoid having to make a we'l reasoned argument is right down your alley, isn't it?

“End of quote. Repeat the line.” - wise words from Joe Biden

already see it used as a retort to anyone with different ideology than the issuer of the label. actually being a boomer matters little

Boomers: It's the millennial's fault, and the refuse to get off the couch and do something.

Millennial: *gets off the couch*, *starts protests*, *gets involved*, *starts to fix what the boomers created*....

Boomers: THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT!!!

Exactly. The kids are woke AF.

Boomers grew up in post WW2 economy where a blue collar job could pay enough to buy a house, wife to stay home with kiddos, and little johnny could go to college working summers.

You what it's like for the kids now in "gig economy"? Kids are helping each other anonymously with rent payments, car repairs, all kinds of mutual aid. They are fighting for their bread.

hey the whiniest of boomers is back!

tspank "listen to me, sniff"

climate change is real ya dopes

The boomers gave us the civil rights act, the beginnings of equal protection for women and LGBT people and much more. But that was when THEY were young. Now they are old and threatened by the youth, by change and by new ideas. Of course, not all of them, but their legacy is not just a broken climate, refusal to change with the times and a startling resurgence of populism, nationalism and racism, its that and much of the positive progress too. But the millennials have seen the numbers. They look at the numbers and see that the boomers are making decisions for them that they will never be around to correct or appreciate how wrong they were. Climate is the biggest one.

Snowflake. The favorite. How millennials just melt at the first sign of heat. Ironic because here is a boomer saying that boomer is the n word of ageism. Let's get this man to a safe space. Perhaps a country club, a post church coffee and donuts or a bunko game.

Geez, these boomers sure are a sensitive bunch. Reality hurts I reckon.

Ageism. It's real and it hurts. When you say boomer I feel like my many black friends must feel when they hear the n word. It harkens me back to when boomer was a good thing. Remember that? My black friends call it the Jim Crow era. They lynched boomers and separate but equal was anything but equal. The law forced people to be accountable to discrimination but being rich white politically connected meant that my plight could only be shared in the safety of our gated communities. Our pain and our struggle the n words are eerily the same.

My son's 15 yo friend just called his dad a Boomer for making him be home early.

I hate to tell you grumpy old bastards, but the word is here to stay.

...and it is ever so fitting.

-------------------------
I was right.

These millennial kids are wrong though. It's X-ers, not boomers.

older, out of touch person = Boomer



-------------------------
I was right.

And you think you are not an older out of touch person?

Bwahahahahhaaha!



-------------------------
The REAL truth is....both of the forum idiots are OWNED.
-BOTH of them have no clue who their owner is.
-They are both card carrying narcissists.
^These are PROVED facts.

fixed it for you. it is already being misapplied, misused, and losing steam. best misuse ive see is a teen calling a millennial boomer. funny stuff

Any slur by you girls better than "democrat"

There is no way you don't drink.



-------------------------
I was right.

^^^

OK Boomer


LOL

-------------------------


When America was "great"

Hiccup...

-------------------------

It's always been "misapplied" that's part of the point - it basically applies to anyone saying stupid shit - especially boomer-esque stupid shit. For reference, see Cheaterfiveo

-------------------------


When America was "great"

ok boomer. not what i meant by misapplied and misused. referring to it being used for any and all difference of opinion combined with age difference. see my first post for reference hearing a teen use it on a millennial in that situation is just extra sauce

losing steam?

It will be a Merriam word of the year.

-------------------------
I was right.

If there is something dumb going on in the country, you can count on progs being behind it. This is simply another example. Progs, being idiots.and always being wrong, cannot argue about anything on the merits. Thus, they come up with things like this. Accusations of racism is the same. It's a sign of vacuity.

Ok boomer...

perhaps. perhaps not. overuse and misapplication used to kill the latest in thing when i was a young. maybe things are different now

hope you say it to a person over 40 at work; you can be fired for discrimination, good luck dumbo

No, not really.



-------------------------
I was right.

Just try to do some research, its called age discrimination. Yet I expect no less from you

ok boomer
