When kids say "boomer" they mean an adult. Doesn't matter what age you are. If you're an adult you're a boomer. End of story.

When you try to explain to them what a boomer actually is they just laugh at you and call you a boomer again because honestly that shit is a pretty a boomer thing to do.

As a millennial, that irritates me. Every day I find a new reason to be happy(ish..) that I didn't end up with kids.

Lemmy is just Reddit for adults.

There's a subreddit with that name (and a discord server with a similar one) that I bet would disagree with you.

Indeed. That's why I hang out on /r/teenagers, with all the other adults.

boomer applies to anyone who has the typical mentality of a boomer (the age). anyone can be a boomer, sadly.
