Don't go in raw on them with that I mean, yeah, they're the hippie generation and all, but Pelosi, Biden, Maxine Waters, etc are all from the generation ahead of the Boomers. The [not so] Silent Generation that simply will not go away. They're the ones that got us into Vietnam and all the Middle East crap that goes on and on and on ad nauseum.

Hardly. Biden was born a year before the Boom, Pelosi was born two years before and I’m guessing Maxine is somewhere in there too. Nancy was definitely hanging out with hippies in her 20s.

Hard nosed, disciplined football will fade away with them I believe. That I can tell you.

**As far as coaches of that description are concerned.

Clinging to victimhood isn't a good look. It's weird how so many like you are okay projecting weakness. That's a new thing.

Too bad most of you did a shite show of a job raising petulant children who don’t respect what your parents did for the world.

And unlike Millennials who will say “Yeah, we agree our generation sucks” they will get so self righteous and pissed if you say that they aren’t truly the best generation ever. Boomers are just the worst and most narcissistic generation ever.

You're confused.

I've never seen a boomer argue they're part of the best generation ever. Most boomers in fact point to the silent generation as the best - did the most with the least, and had it substantially harder.

It's younger generations whiny bitching about boomers that's responded to. You guys have made it cool to project weakness and victimhood. Even when it's explained to you how, no, you do not have it bad - you cling to victimhood. It's weird.

Your generation clinging onto your false sense of heroism, narcissism, and self righteousness is even worse and more disgusting. Your generation writ large are villains and fricked everything up, and you won’t give up power and demand that yall are always right.

Is this guy a green haired progressive? And yes, victimhood again is not a good look. For me, I’ll continue to live the good life.

I really don't want to inherit anything from the boomers. just want them to go away. take all your assets, sell your houses and take your car collection with you to some private island and stay there.

The Boomers have effectively been running the country since at least the late 80s and at best since 1993. They refuse to give up their power. They are like a bunch of lunatics that keep stabbing and killing each other over the One Ring while the other generations look on in horror.



Man oh man. Can you recite any more bullshite? Other generations are too fricked up to even think about doing things on their own merits. You are most likely one of the those and sit back and whine like a pussy.

I'm a boomer and the thing I'm most proud of regarding our generation involves risk tolerance. We were not obsessed with safety at all and it was really great. Just a few memories from childhood:
We didn't wear seat belts. We didn't even have seat belts.
By age 4 you went out to play with friends with no adult supervision.
By age 5 Cajun dads gave you the first sip from their beer can.
Lots of boys in HS had guns in their unlocked cars during school.
Our schools had zero security guards.
You would have been mocked for wearing a helmet riding a bike.
Drinking water was banned during football practice.
Dad's tools in the garage were great to play with. My favorites were mercury, lead and the blow torch.
You had to look near death to be taken to the doctor.

The benefits from this is that you learn to be careful and you don't get stressed about small stuff like people do today.

You're retarded on this subject. You cannot make any sense.

I'm not clinging to heroism of any sort by telling you to wipe your nose and grow up. That doesn't make me a hero. It makes you a whiny little bitch.

Boomers will give their father’s that stormed the beaches of Normandy and Iwo Jima some credit because even they know that they’d be insane not to, but that’s pretty much it. They largely looked at their fathers as part of the old world that was to be ignored save for fun World War II facts and that they knew how to lead the world better than they did.

Oh frick off you narcissistic holier twat. That’s all you Boomers are. It’s like fricking 30% of Millennials that do the victimhood complex. It’s 90% of Boomers that do the narcissism and completely self centered bullshite. No self awareness from your generation whatsoever.

This meme perfectly represents your generation:

You serious? The lack of self awareness and extreme narcissism from Boomers is incredible.
