Not all baby boomers are bad at technology; only most of them are. I thank the universe daily that my parents aren't so old that they can't write an email or post to Facebook without accidentally posting a blurry picture of their befuddled faces. Honestly, I think those remaining from the Silent Generation are the ones who really struggle with technology way more than the boomers do. Boomers rule Facebook with an iron fist, while members of the Silent Generation unintentionally post gold because they legitimately have no idea what they're doing. If you were born in 1930, I would never expect you to navigate Facebook Marketplace easily, and it'd be wild to expect you to. But if you were 45 when the iPhone came out, you have no excuse not to be up to date by now. If you want some memes that make fun of boomers, you've come to the right place.

    realdumbasshours My favorite thing about "Ok Boomer" is that, instead of arguing, the youth unconsiously and collectively decided to literally just verbally wave boomers off and treat them like children who won't shut up and i think that's beautiful armchair-factotum It's great to see kids realize that nothing upsets boomers like dismissing them they way they dismiss anyone younger than themselves 76,445 notes A D 27

    I hate when old people say tattoos are a waste of money like okay debra you have a cabinet full of expensive plates people aren't allowed to use
    via MrAngryEyes

    As if boomers don't waste their money on inane things all the time. At least tattoos don't break like the Mickey Mouse waffle machine they bought back in the 90s that they're still hoarding in their kitchen.

    Never trust someone who says they love animals more than people. If they're being truthful, they will treat you worse than a cockroach.

    apas-95 Follow Apr 26 'farenheit is more intuitive' mfers hearing someone speak any other language: hmm, y'know, i think english is better, it's just more obvious. like its more relevant to day-to-day life. don't get me wrong i think these other languages are useful in like, movies, or on duolingo, since thats what they were made for, but i think using english is one thing we got right #discourse

    You must be pretty angry with the shoe on the other foot now, huh? Boomers M No longer the hip generation, the kids using slang you don't understand and making fun of your fashion and music taste? Millennials Actually, I'm quite comfortable.

    Are millennials cool with Gen Z labeling them as an uncool generation? Is Gen Z ready for Gen Alpha to take their crown?

    My gf's explanation of why "ok boomer" became a thing is spot on ✓ Millennials tried for so long to explain using facts and evidence that they don't actually have it that easy and they aren't just lazy, but it became very clear that boomers don't care about facts, evidence, or reality for that matter. So this is what has resulted. We've given up. I feel like "ok boomer" is kind of the equivalent of "Wow, you're so horribly wrong, but I don't have the time or the energy to repeatedly explain some
