& @[email protected] you’re in c/196 you can be pissed at your parents, and accept language lives. There’s a reason my wife religiously says “get with the times boomer!”
If you’re not keep up with your kid’s dialect, diction, language, issues, concerns, politics, acts, and feelings, you’re not really interested in making changes your parents deceived you to make. Generational abuse stops with us. and if kids want to call us boomers, so be it. It’s their language, their future, their lives.
I just hope they can welcome me too in the wonders they’ll achieve. If not, so be it too. I did what I could with what I knew. A home in me they have.
Let’s all join together in a chorus of Kumbaya. :)
Just ribbin’. I more or less agree, but when one of my own kids, that are now in their twenties, called me ‘boomer’ one time, you can be damn sure I set 'em straight. :) I’m getting kinda tired of being in the ‘forgotten generation’, and this is just a symptom.
I do try to keep up with the young folk’s slang as best I can. I think it’s adorable.
Buddy, correct your language. Ableism is against community rules.
It’s one thing to deny language changes every generation, and another to call children that disengage in how you use words “morons.”
I want kids to have choice. If they want to use different meanings for words, that is their choice. If you think that is “moronic.” Do not interact with me. See my bio.
Can confirm, am pissed.

I do too, which is why I “fuck with it.” “Thanks ‘grown-ass a-dult’” It’s sooo funny to ragebait’em. Kids are alright.
