‘“Boomer” is the N-word of ageism. Being hip and flip does not make bigotry ok, nor is a derisive epithet acceptable because it is new.’ That is radio host Bob Lonsberry, described in his Twitter bio as an Army veteran and a churchgoing member of the National Rifle Association, taking offense to the use of the word “boomer.” The classification has, indeed, been popping up more often lately, thanks to the emergence of the phrase “ok, boomer,” which has become a meme for dismissing out-of-touch arguments from the older generation. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/conservative-radio-host-compares-the-use-of-term-boomer-with-the-n-word-2019-11-04 |

Lol Boomers had no problem dishing it out to the other generations but can't handle it being thrown back.
The epitome of snowflakeism. Maybe they have just been projecting the whole time..... |

who cares, anyone using "boomer" as a pejorative is a failure trying to blame their pathetic existance on someone other than themselves. Its what happens when everyone gets a trophy. Hopefully mom won't kick the incels out of the basement.

The triggering potential of "ok boomer" is on the same level as the NPC meme. It's fairly hilarious how much offense boomers take to being... uh, boomered.

IMO it's like the spoiled teen girl crying how her parents ruined her life by not getting her the new car she wanted...she wanted a new BMW and got a new Civic.
It comes from having too easy of a life given to them by the generation they choose to blame for all their own personal failures. Imagine the 1930 depression generation blaming their parents...nope, no time for that when they were hungry with no shoes...then came WWII for them. Hell these kids have no fucking clue who to blame (but not themselves of course). "It's daddies fault" but wait your generation chose not to marry (have a dad) or even be bothered to have kids...Hmmm. "It's daddies fault too we are becoming a minority" lol. |
