Seriously. I don’t want your opinion or your “expertise” or anything. Keep your experiences and feelings to yourself.
Let me live my life. If I want advice or help, I’ll ask people I trust.
This applies to actual boomers and online boomers, and also to people who have a boomer mindset.

It inspired it lol. But that person also said talking about tiktok banning people for being pro-BLM was just “streamer drama” that we shouldn’t care about so I don’t particularly care what they think.
lmao, the first streamer comment was so out of line that other people called them out as well. Then they came at me in another post. Im not gonna just ignore shit comments lol. Why don’t you tell them to stop commenting shit?
boomers aside, starting a thread about some petty drama you just had and then arguing with everyone who points out that that's weird is exceptionally aggressive behavior
I respond to other people.
You directly respond to me. And lie, but that’s to be expected.
@LiberalSocialist @GarbageShoot Both of you disengage. There is nothing productive coming from this conversation.
It really depends on your relationship with the person. If you know them and they trust/like you, it can be a good thing.
In the vast majority of cases though it’s shit advice given by shit people.
making an entire thread because someone else disengaged but you're still mad really is unhinged behavior and i hope you understand that
They’re honestly a great example of how chill the mods have got over time lol. They’re single handedly responsible for more struggle sessions and toxic behavior than half the wreckers and still haven’t been banned, a year ago they would have got popped after like the second 300 comment lib nonsense post
i mean honestly this just feels like calling for pitchforks and torches because you said who gives a shit about the thing that has been happening for decades now, that's how private businesses operate
what reason do they have to disengage when you are bringing it to another post entirely? do you really not see or accept your own role in this conflict or are you trying to justify shitty behavior?
I didn’t even make this post for them lol. As can be seen by the many comments from before they invaded, there are many people here who’ve expressed similar experiences with boomers.
Is this thread for real a response to someone suggesting that being obsessed with online streamers isn’t a particularly healthy habit? Because I just came from that post on the front page where you called that person a boomer right before making this thread.
It inspired it lol.
seriously grow the fuck up
you are literally the Power dynamics. person, i think i'm okay here
Boomers were socialized in a pre-internet world. It was lonely and boring, SO BORING. A lot of them decided one way to stave off boredom was to talk too much, a trait that hasn't quite died out yet.
they're literally right. talking to people is good. internet is bad.
Ok Mr. “Streamer bullshit is when tiktok bans pro-BLM creators”.
Lmao you literally did it. There was no additional context. Even others called you out for it, that’s why you’ve pivoted to attacking me in other posts.
Ok Boomer has been a near universal way for zoomers to say they’re disengaging but apparently you don’t get it (sus).
Putting your fingers in your ears and your head in the sand while acting dismissive and condescending to your peers sounds like a boomer to me. Look in the mirror, comrade.

This is why I'll never have a meaningful relationship with my grandparents
Why is it so hard to treat someone as an equal? Like, I'm doing everything I can to live a fulfilling life, and their advice is to stop following my dreams to follow theirs instead because they think I'd be wealthier one day
My grandma always says "things are relative, in my day...." when I complain about how hard things are getting. Thing is that my gran is silent generation and not boomer, and grew up on a rural farm during the depression, so she's not really wrong.
I don’t mind grandparents that much cuz mine are really old and their advice is easy to ignore. The worst are just older people who aren’t that old yet that you can just blame it on them being old.
A lot of the time, people just want to feel listened to and heard, or they want to feel important.
I have found a decent middle path by mostly engaging with people on their areas of expertise, which could be car shit, could be relationship stuff, etc. Then, people want to be listened to as well, they want to feel like they're an important part of your life, so I'll just sit there and listen to them tell (often) the same stories and give the same advice as before. Just comes with the give and take of relationships and meeting people where they're at imo.
Sometimes, the "advice" is really a shift in perspective, which can be really helpful if you're stuck or overwhelmed. Just in my experience; everyone's life is different.
EDIT: oh lol
You are such a kind person lol.
This is a good comment. :avoheart:
haha yeah its just boomers that like to do that right people :side-eye-1:
That’s why I added the different categories of boomer lol: you can be an internet boomer or just someone with a boomer mindset!
One of the benefits to being unemployed is that when an old person bothers me while I'm doing my own business I can just tell them to fuck off
They have no recourse
It's the antidote to having worked retail for years
No you have to listen to what I have to say and you have to respond and agree or else you’re being a child.
