    Don’t forget being blamed industries failing because recognizing our lack of income is impossible for boomers.

    Oh and being blamed for receiving participation trophies our parents generation forced on us.

      My favorite was the desperate headline, “millennials kill napkins” because we can’t afford so many different paper products (if they knew we were using TP for kleenex, they’d have run with that too).

      What really sucks is living near Millennials who were handed jobs and houses by their parents, and live life effortlessly, which makes it seem like the “dream” is still alive and I’m just failing at it.

        Have a friend whose Boomer dad said that he’d best hope he, the father, dies early otherwise he’s going to blow all of the inheritance. The dad is also a MAGAt so it tracks.

      I don’t hate to say it, Boomers are the most out of touch, entitled, enriched generation the USA has ever seen and they’re going to be the downfall of this country.
