The boomers tattoos are all from when they were navy jet fighters in ww2

Thank a boomer for the fact that you aren’t speaking Japanese

I don't get the hatred towards boomers. I guess I was surrounded by the good ones. The boomers that I were around were products of blue collar families who provided their boomer children an opportunity for higher education.

I have boomer parents. They had less than what I have now, but gave us everything they could to help us succeed. Now we are successful adults and in a much better situation compared to when they were my age. My goal is to put my kids in an even better situation than I had growing up, and my wife and I have a goal to provide generational wealth to our family. I don't bitch at my kids saying "I did not have this when I was your age." Times change and priorities are subject to change as time goes on.

That should be the mindset of every American. Instead they bitch and moan about what they don't have instead of cherishing what they do have and their goal to make it better. They also take standards of today and apply it to the past which is not fair. It was a different time. We are constantly evolving and learning, and previous generations should be respected for what they know/did not know, and did in the past.

Boomers had it made. They’re all retired and rich now, the working class are having to pay for them.

Boomers are the worst gen in American history.

Hard to believe it's only 41% for millennials. Go anywhere where the crowd is around that age and try to find someone without a tattoo.

You're not good at math, are you? Literal definition of a Baby Boomer is someone born AFTER the war was over. You should thank them for nothing more than ruining this country (Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, etc.)

Uh.. No, we busted our asses working from our teen years and stayed outside playing and then taking care of our homes and families. We didn't have time, or money from mom and dad and grandma, for expensive tats and fast food obesity.

Grow up, and get off the fricking couch.

Yes, the Boomers entering the workforce in the 1960's that were able to purchase a house and car on a single-income family. You all had it really rough.

So much fail up in here.

My dad worked a part time job and my mother also worked. Not much different from today.

Same, but my parents were able to get jobs with only an Associates degree, while now any entry level position in their company requires Bachelor's degrees.
