If Boomer Were Honest

"We played wet willies... and penis butt"

"That sounds gay grandpa"

"It was, we were all gay!"

An honest boomer would say to a gen z: I am sorry you're a loser, but you were taught in school by progressives and that was your death knell.

Penis butt?

What's gay about a wet willy? There was a girl at my school who'd say she was going to whisper a secret in your ear, and then spit in it. She definitely had at least a wet willy coming.

As a Boomer, I want to personally thank 48-Cowboy. You see, in less than 6 years the government is going to start sending me a little over $3k a month. This is money I don't really need so I plan on blowing it on top shelf whiskey and strippers. So Cowboy work hard, pay your taxes, and I'm raising a glass of Sazerac 18 y. o. rye to you.

Shush Justin or they'll elect Paul Ryan as President and we'll be fucked.

I just hope the younguns will let me keep my Medicare once they get feed up with us bending them over.

@ Skibum609, it never ceases to amaze me that your reading comprehension is so bad. Boomers raised millennials, millennials are the teachers now. Millennials are Boomers fault, so you really need to apologize to gen z for failing them.

Ibbiacnl, you are a good man, you have a clue 👍

@ JustinTolook, congrats! You have achieved a very low financial bar for your generation of not needing social security for your retirement 👍. The bad money management under your generations watch is about to come to roost. We will see hyper inflation shortly, so your $3k per month may buy you a couple of nice dinners, but may not be enough to get a young dancer to touch your dick.

Socialist security will go one of two ways.

1. It will be inflated away.

2. It will be redistributed and taken from the haves like you to the have not, and inflated away anyway.

Either way, the future is not as bright for you as you think.

The pandemic is teaching us we need a basic universal income and pensions adjusted for real inflation.

We can't rely on the rich throwing us a few crumbs

With the unemployment boost gone and evictions allowed. Wait for the worst Christmas on record and hopefully a class war

Business owners ceos politicians the super rich are the enemy.

My solidarity is with the downtrodden and oppressed

They're not lies. Wait for the holiday season....

The clear fuck-over of the young is that, in the 60s we'd reached a point where, even if your job only required a 10th grade education (if that), it was common that you could still afford to pay your bills, own a house and a new car. This went away cause "the market" required it. Yeah, sorry, not bending over for "the market", cause it doesn't even give reach arounds.

The other fuck-over was the young got a lot of bullshit advice that they should get up to their necks in debt to pay for an overpriced college education. They were told they were setting themselves up for a good paying job, which was a lie. But they have to take some part of the blame, they weren't children, and should have been more cautious about going so deep in debt.

All this economic doom and gloom. I wonder why that happened?

Intergenerational antagonism is mostly click-bait news articles and people actively seeking out reasons to be unhappy about whatever happens to be within an arm's reach.

I can only go on the folks I meet, but across all of these 'branded' generations, there seems to be a pretty standard bell curve of behaviors ranging from smart to stupid, productive to unproductive, and decent humans to absolute assholes. I'm not worried about or annoyed by young people. They're doing fine.
